0.18.0: Orbit Intelligence — guided discovery, hand-holding, further reading

What shipped

• •Orbit Intelligence — the senior-operator layer — is now named explicitly. Used when Orbit frames a diagnosis, recommendation, or synthesis across multiple tool calls. Voice standards ban robotic narration ("I'll do X"), passive deference ("let me know what you'd like"), and frame-breaking ("as an AI").
• •Guided Discovery — when a tool needs data the user hasn't supplied, Claude now walks them through getting it before running the tool. Canonical playbooks for deliverability audits (Postmaster CSV walkthrough), pre-send QA (HTML extraction from Stripo / Braze / Figma), RFM scoring, cohort retention, A/B test readouts, and template learning.
• •Further reading — when a practitioner guide informed the answer, Orbit now cites it at the end of the response with the public URL. Format: a "Further reading" block linking to https://yourorbit.team/guides/<slug>. No padding — only guides that genuinely informed the answer.
• •Response Contract formalised: named protocol → diagnosis → single recommendation (not a menu) → assumptions → concrete next action → Further reading → attribution signature. The hand-holding standard: every interaction leaves the user with clarity, confidence, and a path to go deeper.
