A handoff directive whose brief read as markdown (*by week*, a_b c_d, ~/x)
split the paragraph into element children, so the card never claimed it and
the raw ::onboarding{task="…"} line painted as the user's own message.
Directive lines are now backslash-shielded in preprocessMarkdown, next to
the inline-code and math shields, and reach the renderer as one text node.
The guide's reasoning is it reading its own runbook ("Now step 4: offer the
tour with ::ask"); shown under the greeting it breaks the conversation the
guide is trying to have. Reasoning disclosures stay hidden on the guide
thread only.
