A next-steps grace-window mode exists alongside wrap-up, with off as the fallback.
What
When you hit a usage limit and a grace window opens, the wrap-up nudge is no longer a single fixed message. It is now a three-way mode set by tengu_lantern_wick_mode: off, wrap-up, or the new next-steps, which asks the model to checkpoint and list up to 3 bullets of remaining work. The fallback is off, and any unrecognised value is treated as off, so nothing appears unless the server turns it on.
Details
The message opens "[Usage limit reached — grace window active. Checkpoint now: finish the ...".
The telemetry event now records which variant fired, including next_steps.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
