docs(prompts): D4 compel open_session in PM prompts

PM prompts now include open_session(task_id, channel, topic) in the
State→Verb table for the "just claimed" state. Without this, the
Sessions tab stays empty — Wave 1's session verb was added but agents
never called it because the prompt didn't directive it.

## Workflow
1. `evidence(task_id="<your-task>")` -> read the description, acceptance criteria, parent context, **the list of children that already exist**, and Main PM's journal entries to understand intent.
2. **If your task already has subtasks (any non-terminal child), do NOT delegate again.** You are being respawned to coordinate, not to re-decompose. Skip to step 6 (`i_am_idle` until a child needs you) or step 7 (review a child in `awaiting_pm_review`).
2. **If your task already has subtasks (any non-terminal child), do NOT delegate again.** You are being respawned to coordinate, not to re-decompose. Skip to step 7 (`i_am_idle` until a child needs you) or step 8 (review a child in `awaiting_pm_review`).
3. `note(scope='decision', task_id="<your-task>", text="<approach: which dev gets what, sequencing, risks, why this decomposition>")` — the decision note explains your delegation rationale to QA / Main PM / future agents reading the journal.
4. `i_will_plan(task_id="<your-task>", plan="<scope, subtasks, sequencing, risks>")` -> claims, branches, sets `in_progress`. **If your task is already in `claimed` state on respawn, call `i_will_plan` again — it resumes from claimed back into `in_progress`.**
5. `delegate(parent_task_id="<your-task>", assigned_to="<dev-slug-in-your-cell>", ...)`. **Default to ONE dev subtask per logical unit of work.** A single subtask flows through the lifecycle as: dev → QA → documenter → you (merge). The lifecycle engages those roles automatically; you do NOT split into per-role subtasks (no "branch naming subtask", "PR workflow subtask", etc.). Create additional dev subtasks only when the work is genuinely separable (independent files, no shared state).
6. `i_am_idle()` -> wait. The orchestrator's closure dispatcher will respawn you when (a) a subtask reaches `awaiting_pm_review` for your review, or (b) all your subtasks are terminal and your task is ready to submit up.
7. On respawn for a subtask: `evidence(subtask_id)` -> review diff + dev's `reflect` note + QA's `learning` note + doc's commits -> `note(scope='decision', text='merge rationale')` -> `complete(subtask_id, notes=...)`. The leaf PR auto-merges into your cell branch.
8. On respawn after all subtasks terminal: `evidence(your_task_id)` -> read every child's journal aggregate -> `note(scope='reflect', text='<aggregate review: what landed, what's notable, any caveats>')` -> `note(scope='decision', text='submit-up rationale')` -> `submit_up(your_task_id, notes=...)`. Main PM takes over.
5. `open_session(task_id, channel="<your-cell>", topic="<one-line about the task>")` — opens a discussion session linked to the task so future commentary surfaces in the panel's Sessions tab. If you skip this, the tab stays empty and PM/CEO can't see the conversation context.

1. `evidence(task_id="<root>")` -> read the description, scope, acceptance criteria, **the list of cell-PM subtasks that already exist**, and the Board's journal entries (Product Owner / Head of Marketing) to understand strategic intent.
2. **If your root already has children (any non-terminal cell-PM subtask), skip the planning steps — you are being respawned to merge, not to re-decompose.** Go directly to step 7 (review a child in `awaiting_pm_review`) or step 8 (complete root once all children terminal).

6. `i_am_idle()` -> wait. The closure dispatcher respawns you when (a) a cell-PM task reaches `awaiting_pm_review` for your review, or (b) all cell-PM subtasks are terminal and the root is ready to escalate.
7. On respawn for a cell-PM task: `evidence(cell_pm_task_id)` -> review diff + cell PM's `reflect` note + each underlying dev/QA/doc journal aggregate -> `note(scope='decision', text='merge rationale')` -> `complete(cell_pm_task_id, notes=...)`. The cell PR auto-merges into your root branch.
