+ * etc.). This function stays as the safety net when Flash is
+ * unavailable, when callers invoke `orchestrate()` directly, or for
+ * non-Teach modes where the regex is sufficient.
+ *
+ * The signal has to be explicit — brevity / ambiguity defaults to
+ * 'light' so tokens stay low unless someone genuinely wants the deep
+ * pipeline.
+ *
+ * For Teach mode (regex fallback only): full team runs when the user is
+ * creating a new curriculum ("teach me X", "I want to learn Y", "create
+ * a curriculum"). Other Teach turns ("continue", "another example",
+ * "I'm stuck") are delivery within an existing curriculum and use the
+ * light team (TUTOR alone).
