 - **Hand off and advice.** The `escalate` tool hands one task to a higher tier (the person sets next, any or only when asked); Anthropic's advisor tool lets a higher tier send a plan, at most two an answer. A hand-off gives up after `HAND_OFF_MS` (4 minutes) and the turn goes on without it.
 - **Chats** run on the agent (`./agent`, `LumenAgent`, below): the app routes `POST /chat` and each chat's reads, cards and Undo to its own agent, and `assistantRoutes` answers `POST /chat` with 410 `moved`. Chats saved by the old turn loop stay readable (`GET /chats`, `GET|DELETE /chats/:id`) until `assistant.purge()` drops them 30 days after their last message.
 - **Screen moves**: while the person's Settings ▸ Screen is Move (the default), the panel sends its page map (`AssistantMessage.screen`: routes, nav pages, Settings sections, cards on screen, rows to open) and `LumenAgent` gives the model a `screen` tool (`./agent` `screen.ts`). Each call's moves (go, settings, chart, open, point) are checked against the map, kept in the chat and streamed as a `screen` event; the panel runs them through `AssistantScreenProvider` (mounted by `LumenShell`) with an Undo chip, and their outcomes go back with the next message (`outcomes`). Nothing is saved by a move.
-- **Background work** an app runs for a person (a score, a summary) is `assistant.complete(caller, { task, system, prompt, images?, maxTokens })`: one answer on the task's tier (`tasks`, so the person picks its model in Settings ▸ Models), no chat and no tools (`images`, base64 with their media type, are read with the prompt: a scanned page, a screenshot), billed to their payer and counted in their spend and allowance like a chat turn. `maxTokens` (default 1,000) goes up to `COMPLETE_MAX_TOKENS` (32,000, thinking included); the answer is streamed, so a long one keeps its connection, and `cut: true` says it stopped at the cap before it ended (the app can ask again, shorter, or continue). It throws `AssistantError` `not_connected`, `app_cap` or `own_cap` when nobody can pay, so the caller waits and tries later. It returns the answer's `usd`, `model`, `usage` (tokens in, cache reads, out, per model) and `payer` (`app` or `own`: who paid, so the app can show a cost on the person's own key as money and the rest as credits). `effort` sets how hard the model thinks on that one call (`low` to `max`; on an OpenAI or xAI model it is the request's reasoning effort), over what the person saved for the tier. `run: { id, title }` makes the calls that share an `id` one line of the person's usage history (every round of one rebuild); without it a task's calls that day share a line. The month's spend also adds up per task and model (`spend:YYYY-MM` `tasks`: answers, calls, tokens, cost and time, a chat answer as `chat`), so an app's admin page can show what each kind of work costs; `tag` counts one call under another name when a task does more than one kind of work (a first try, a repair).

Put what stays the same first. OpenAI calls carry a cache key per person, task and run (a ChatGPT plan sign-in caches nothing without one).
 - **Images** an app makes for a person are `assistant.image(caller, { task, prompt, images?, size?, quality?, run? })`: one image on the payer's OpenAI key (`IMAGE_MODEL`, gpt-image-2; a ChatGPT plan sign-in cannot make one), from `images` when given (a reference, a sketch), billed and capped like `complete` at the model's list price per token. It returns the PNG as base64 with its `usd`. A chat tool that returns `image: { url, alt?, cost? }` shows as an image card in the panel (`StepItem.image`); `LumenAssistant` `imageTool` names that tool (its "Making the image" box while it runs, Make another) and `modes` adds composer toggles (Make an image) whose id goes with the message as `use`.
 - **Usage history.** Each chat (`agentTurn` with `chat`) and each run of background work is one line of the person's month (`usage:YYYY-MM`, the newest 300): its title, first and last use, tokens, cost and its parts per tier and model. `GET /usage?month=YYYY-MM` returns it beside that month's spend and the months that have any; `LumenAssistant`'s footer shows this month's total and opens it (`UsageHistoryView`).
