Rolls back the claudification backend preference: PREFER_CLOUD_BACKEND now
defaults to false, resolve_backend() picks Ollama first and uses Claude when
explicitly preferred or when the new Ollama startup health check fails. The
Steward retries mid-request failures on the other backend in both directions.
Also hardens the fallback itself: Anthropic SDK imports are lazy so a broken
anthropic package degrades to Ollama-only instead of crashing at import time
(root cause of the production outage since April), anthropic is pinned to a
pydantic-ai-1.27-compatible range, ANTHROPIC_MODEL defaults to claude-sonnet-5
(sonnet-4-20250514 retired 2026-06-15), sampling parameters are stripped from
Claude calls (Sonnet 5 rejects them), and the Steward timeout is configurable
(STEWARD_TIMEOUT, default 60s) since gemma4 needs ~35s warm for analysis.

All agents now prefer Claude API when ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is configured,
with automatic fallback to Ollama when offline or unconfigured. New
src/anthropic/ module provides model selection via get_model() factory.

Instrument the full request flow with trace spans for debugging:
- Wrap expert delegations (librarian/biographer/housekeeper) in spans
- Add orchestrate and synthesize spans to TatlockAgent
- Trace Steward analysis in preprocessing
- Start/end traces in response service with context management
- Simplify router by moving context handling to service layer
- Include tracing router in debug mode
- Remove benchmark recording from tool_tracking and steward service

Fixes several issues with the web search migration to Librarian:
- Update Steward routing guidelines for web search/weather → Librarian
- Register search_web, read_url, read_urls_batch tools with Librarian agent
- Update Librarian system prompt with web search documentation
- Fix query enrichment not being passed to delegations (location context)
- Add URL reading keywords to RESEARCH action type detection
Weather queries now automatically include user's stored location from
the Biographer, enabling location-aware search results.

- Reduces latency for memory-only requests
- Text-based delegation fallback:
- Parse [DELEGATE:agent] patterns from LLM output
- Sequential and parallel execution support
- Comprehensive E2E test suite:
- 22 orchestration tests with QdrantVerifier
- assert_llm_behavior() for flexible pattern matching
- Tests for memory, delegation, isolation, scenarios
### Fixed
- Unit test mocks for streaming (async generator)
- Temporal context handling in tests
- LLM non-determinism with pytest.xfail()
- Streaming test timeouts increased

Updates Steward's output format to structured delegation format:
- DELEGATE: [capability] to [action] [task]
- REASON: [explanation]
- COMPLEXITY: [simple/moderate/complex]
- CONTEXT: [relevant history or "none"]
Also adds guidance for conversation memory queries (handled by
Tatlock directly, not delegated to Librarian).
