    askPearlAiUse this when the user wants a rapid AI-generated answer, draft, or alternative perspective on a low-risk or exploratory topic that does not require human validation. Do not use for medical, legal, financial, or safety-critical questions — use askExpert or askPearlExpert instead.
    askPearlExpertUse this when the problem is complex, ambiguous, high-stakes, or multidisciplinary and would benefit from AI intake followed by escalation to a human expert. Do not use for simple fact queries (use askPearlAi) or when the user explicitly requests a human directly (use askExpert). Supports phone callback — pass phoneNumber and contactPreference='phone' if the user wants a call.
    askExpertUse this when the user explicitly asks to speak with a real human expert, needs personalized advice in a complex or sensitive domain, or says something like 'Can I talk to a real expert?'. Supports phone callback — pass phoneNumber and contactPreference='phone' if the user wants a call.
    verifyAnswerUse this when a professional needs to validate the correctness, safety, or trustworthiness of a specific AI-generated answer, or when the user asks to have an answer double-checked by a real expert.
