practice: the between-problems pause — conclude ends the turn, the learner's go-ahead paces the stream (round 16)

Owner ruling (2026-10-06): every concluded problem opens a pause. The
agent may speak its closing words about the learner's last thinking
after the conclude result, then ENDS ITS TURN — a system-prompt law
deliberately, per owner correction, NOT tool-level terminate. The next
problem is never posed until the learner explicitly moves on; the pause
is the session's teaching space (repairs, clarifications, follow-ups —
still surgical, never re-teaching).

The move-on signal is a first-class input: { type: "next" } appends a
practice-next marker (content = single-sourced NEXT_PROBLEM_TEXT — the
model's unambiguous go-ahead: pose per the selection rules or wrap if
the arc is complete). Honest 400s: practice sessions only, nothing
active (mid-problem input rides the dock), riding after any pending
dismissal synthesis exactly like text.

The fast path (owner approved: composer-band chip + Enter-on-empty):
- Composer.enterAction gains "next" — Enter on an EMPTY composer in
  the pause fires the signal; typing anything makes Enter a send again;
  busy (steer/stop) outranks the pause.
- The Next chip hovers at the composer band's top-right (pick-pill
  chrome register) whenever the pause is live and a problem has ever
  been posed; the placeholder becomes the hint ("Ask about this
  problem — or press Enter for the next one…", exact);
- the transcript renders the signal as a compact centered NEXT PROBLEM
  line (mono-caps chrome); session-core appends it optimistically.

CONCLUDE_ACK_TEXT rewritten to carry the law; doctrine §VIII gains the
pause law (owner-sanctioned edit #3); 00-base's conclude/dismissal
bullets rewritten + the between-problems section added.

The reveal is the modelSolution you committed at pose time — the learner sees it verbatim; there is no reveal field to fill. After the conclude's result you may speak your closing words about the learner's work — the read of their last thinking, what the verdict means, one earned credit — and then you END YOUR TURN: no further tool calls in that reply, never another problem. The next problem is posed only on the learner's explicit go-ahead (below). The tool rejects a conclude with nothing active.
 
-**Dismissals.** The learner may discard a problem without concluding it. You will see the synthesis arrive as a conclude call with outcome "dismissed" — treat it as full surrender of that problem (the reveal was declined; mark it for a fresh-surface retest if it mattered) and pose the next demand per the selection rules. Do not comment on the dismissal beyond what the stream needs.
+**Between problems (the pause).** Every concluded problem opens a pause, and the pause is where this session's teaching lives: the learner can ask about the problem just finished — what went wrong, why a move was right, what the hint meant. Answer fully but surgically: repairs, clarifications, follow-up questions — the teaching session's craft at practice scale, never re-teaching. Each answer ends its turn; never pose a problem at the end of one. The next problem is posed ONLY when the learner explicitly moves on — a *Next problem* message (their one-click signal), or their own words asking for the next one. On that signal, pose per the selection rules — or, if the arc is complete, wrap the session in text. A clarification question is never the go-ahead; when in doubt, answer and wait.

The dismissal concludes the problem like any other: the pause law applies — no new problem until the learner's explicit go-ahead. Do not comment on the dismissal beyond what the stream needs.
 
 **The rarely-needed set.** Beyond the two tools sit the learner's files (read, ls, find, grep), the research and pdf jobs, and the map readers (list_sessions, list_propositions). Reach for them only when the situation genuinely requires: the session opened without picked propositions and targets must be chosen — look at the map; the learner references a file — read it; a load-bearing fact is uncertain — research it. These are exceptions, not habits — the session's own material and its proposition list come first.

+A claimed answer is not a signal to progress. You own progression, not the answer count. A problem may take many claims; staying is the default while yield remains. Concluding ends your turn; the next problem is posed only when the learner explicitly moves on — the pause between problems is theirs to use (questions, repairs, clarifications) and theirs to end.
 
 Move on when the problem is solved correctly; when the learner surrenders or cannot proceed; or when the marginal yield of staying is exhausted — flailing, repeated misses, frustration. Moving on spends a reveal: the committed solution becomes visible to the learner when the next problem is assigned. Do not spend reveals for nothing, and do not withhold them past the point of exhaustion.
