+/**
+ * The prompt glue both harnesses share: WHICH sections, in WHAT order, with
+ * WHICH lines — never the framing, never the placement.
+ *
+ * The doctrine is `plan-mode-prompt.ts`'s: "the framing is house style; the
+ * words are shared." Every section BODY already has one home
+ * (`sender-identity.ts`, `declared-preferences.ts`, `recalled-memories.ts`,
+ * `session-context.ts`, `context-bridge.ts`, `attachment-vision.ts`,
+ * `attachment-download-urls.ts`). What the two prompt builders duplicated
+ * until #1096 was the glue around those bodies: the order
+ * the five standing sections read in, with the same doctrine comments written
+ * twice; the input-files bullet and disclosure lines. This module is that
+ * glue, written once. It also chose which skills a prompt highlighted when
+ * there were many, until the native harness stopped choosing skills by the
+ * turn's message: a system prompt that follows the message misses the
+ * provider's prompt cache on every turn, so every harness now describes every
+ * mounted skill.
+ *
+ * What stays with each harness, on purpose:
+ *  - Framing and placement. The native harness renders `## Heading` sections
+ *    into a system prompt rebuilt on every turn; the Cursor harness renders
+ *    `<xml_tag>` sections into the FIRST user message of a session
+ *    (`capabilities.systemPrompt` is the declared reason). Each builder maps a
+ *    section `kind` to its own label (`Record<StandingSectionKind, string>`,
+ *    exhaustive by the compiler) and wraps the body itself. This module never
+ *    learns a heading or a tag.
+ *  - Words that quote an engine's tools: the native `## Skills` activation
+ *    protocol (`read`, `execute(...)`) and Cursor's `<available_skills>` line
+ *    (`the Read tool`); the response rules; the sub-agent rules; the
+ *    structured-output directives (two mechanisms, two texts); Cursor's
+ *    tool-approval protocol, which exists because of Cursor's gate model and
+ *    would be false on a harness that interrupts before a tool runs.
+ *
+ * Fences: nothing under `shared/` imports `harness/` (and
+ * `harness/__tests__/import-direction.test.ts` forbids `shared/` reaching
+ * `activities/`), so every function here takes a plain struct that both
+ * builders' option objects satisfy structurally — never `TurnInput`. Pure:
+ * no I/O, no logging (a builder that wants to log what the selection did
+ * does so at its own call site).
