Parent build: #2
Goal
Connect the existing Ask flow to a real provider response path so Threadline can answer using resolved context.
Work items
- Identify the current prompt composition path used by Ask.
- Route the composed prompt/context into the configured provider abstraction.
- Return assistant text to the Windows sidecar.
- Append the assistant response into the transcript.
- Add user-readable handling for missing provider configuration, provider timeout, and provider error responses.
Acceptance criteria
- Ask no longer stops at prompt composition.
- A configured provider can return an answer into the transcript.
- Provider failure produces a clean assistant/system message instead of a crash.
- Follow/Lock context behavior is respected when composing the provider request.
