+ *      (safe fallback for read-only roles where identical context is OK)
+ *
+ * Returns an array of { taskId, text } records in input-order. When the
+ * delimiter strategy succeeds, each entry contains that task's delimited
+ * text. When broadcast fallback is used, all entries contain the full
+ * raw output.
