+// What an app's AI is told, and how what it answers is read and checked, for `LampAI.act` and `LampAI.decide` (lamp.js):
+// the one copy. Lamp's app has it done here (`AppAct`, `AppAI.decideByText`, through `calls.mjs`), and so do lamp's own
+// answers (ai.mjs), so a page gets the same checks and words whichever answers it. Who is asked, and how, isn't here:
+// the route, its keys and its program are the caller's, which hands over the answer to read.
+//
+// `LampAI.act` is one step of an app's agent loop. The page runs its own tools and keeps the turn; each step carries
+// the whole turn so far (the request, the tools, every earlier call and its result) and gets back either the calls to
+// make next or the reply. Nothing is kept between steps. What a step can hold on its own is checked here: the tools'
+// shapes, the calls the model hands back (checked against them, at most `MAX_CALLS`), the call ids, and that a turn
+// with `MAX_STEPS - 1` steps behind it is asked for a reply only. Limits across the turn (writes, time, cancel) are the
+// page's.
+//
+// Every route is asked one of two ways and read into the same calls-or-reply: a chat with OpenAI-style tools
+// (OpenRouter, an MLX model whose server takes tools: `chatBody`, `readMessage`), or one prompt whose answer must fit
+// the step's JSON shape (Claude Code, Codex, a GGUF model, an older MLX model: `planPrompt`, `planSchema`, `readPlan`).
