8/// All error variants produced by the orchestration subsystem.
9///
10/// Variants are exhaustive — callers that match on this type should use a
11/// `_ => …` arm to stay robust against future additions.
12///
13/// # Fail-open policy
14///
15/// LLM-backed steps (verification, replan) are always fail-open: on failure
16/// they log a warning and continue rather than returning an error. Only
17/// structural invariant violations and hard configuration errors propagate as
18/// `Err`.
19///
20/// # Examples
21///
22/// ```rust
23/// use zeph_orchestration::OrchestrationError;
24///
25/// fn describe(err: &OrchestrationError) -> &'static str {
26/// match err {
27/// OrchestrationError::CycleDetected => "graph has a cycle",
28/// OrchestrationError::Disabled => "orchestration is off",
29/// _ => "other orchestration error",
30/// }
31/// }
32///
33/// let err = OrchestrationError::CycleDetected;
34/// assert_eq!(describe(&err), "graph has a cycle");
35/// ```
