Assist: route each question to live evidence or governed process knowledge
Assist is the user-facing mode selector. It decides whether the request needs current system state or an approved business-process answer.
Stage responsibility
Use the right answer mode for the question rather than calling tools by default.
Inputs
User intent
Available MCP tools
Approved business knowledge
Output
A live-evidence answer or governed process answer with the source mode kept clear.
