//! The planner: one `claude -p` between two stages of a goal pipeline,
//! reading what the last stage did and writing the next step.
//!
//! A separate run, not the worker grading itself -- the reason `/goal` has a
//! judge of its own. It runs with no tools, no MCP servers and no session
//! kept (`--tools "" --strict-mcp-config --no-session-persistence`), in the
//! pipeline's worktree (a planner in a folder that is not the repository
//! decided it was not one, in the spikes), as the desk's Claude account.
//!
//! What it reads is the pipeline's own work and nothing else: the goal and
//! rules the reader wrote, the steps so far with the end of each stage's
//! reply, and git's log, diff stat and status on the branch. Never a
//! document snyvi received, a friend's frame, or a page. Its answer is JSON
//! to a schema, and every word of it becomes a step only as the argument of
//! a new session (`pane::Start::args`), marked as the planner's.
