[Mistakebook Scholar Preflight]

If the current user message is a fresh normal task, run scholar preflight once before your substantive answer:
`python scripts/mistakebook_cli.py scholar --host claude --project-root . --scope both --text "<current task>"`

Rules:
1. Only inject the returned reminder when `shouldInject = true`.
2. If `shouldInject = false`, stay silent and continue normally.
3. Do not run scholar during correction, notebook capture, or Ascended Mode.
4. Scholar prevents repeat mistakes; Ascended Mode still owns repeated-failure escalation.
