Why: Squad steps previously ran without tools, and the product had no way to make the squad the conversation entry without losing streaming, cards, or the deliverable guard.
Evidence: go test ./... -count=1 passed, including streaming, cardflow, false-deliverable rejection, tool allowlist, model routing, usage, cancel, and turn and tool budgets.
Impact: runtime.entry defaults to direct. squad uses one kernel step for simple work and the leader for the rest. squad_orchestrate is hidden in that mode. The default is not switched.
