+/**
+ * Mlola Render with your own model: what turns a model you call yourself
+ * into one that composes surfaces.
+ *
+ * Mlola never calls a model. You call yours, with your key, and this module
+ * gives you the three things around that call:
+ *
+ * - what to tell the model (`renderSystemPrompt`, and `renderTool` for a
+ *   model that answers in words and shows a surface only when one helps);
+ * - how to read what it answers (`createRenderReader` as it streams,
+ *   `readRenderReply` once it is whole), whatever it wrapped the messages in;
+ * - what to answer when the check refuses it (`checkRenderReply`,
+ *   `renderRepairPrompt`), and the loop that does all of it (`composeRender`).
+ *
+ * A reply comes from a model, so it is read in one pass, in time that grows
+ * with its length, and never past the catalog's input limit. No Node or DOM
+ * API is used: this runs in a server, an edge function or a browser.
