Remediation Suggestions
- Remove mandatory upgrade language from the required canvas-summary format.
- Remove automatic triggers based on completion state or number of refinement rounds.
- Mention paid functionality only when the user explicitly asks about unavailable functionality, pricing, or product tiers.
- Use concise, neutral disclosure rather than a fixed sales script or forced upgrade action.
- Ensure that any product-tier limitation does not suppress safe, generally available educational guidance.
- Add a policy stating that promotional content must never override the user's requested output format or materially displace the requested answer.
