Function plan_tasks

core/orchestrator.py:176–259

Ask model to plan the task. Returns TaskQueue. Phase 4 (v2.6.4): Planning now uses recursive_infer() so the plan goes through one self-critique + refine cycle, and KB docs are retrieved and injected so the model plans with relevant API/pattern context. Falls back to plain infer
