Inspired by Claude Code's status line config.

What: Configurable REPL prompt template:

shell = {
    prompt = "[{model} {ctx_used}/{ctx_max}t turn={turn}] {cwd_short} > ",
}

Variables: model (preset name), ctx_used, ctx_max, turn, cwd, cwd_short, last_status, mode (norris/plan/normal).

Why: At-a-glance situational awareness. Model preset, context fill %, mode flags. Prevents the "wait, am I still in plan mode?" surprise.

Where it lands: Phase 1 ergonomic. Touches repl.lua (prompt formatter).
