Conversation
When no reflections exist in the system (fresh install / new user), skip the reflection-origin requirement and reflection_exempt_reason check on task creation. This removes the biggest onboarding friction point where new users hit DEFINITION_OF_READY errors with zero context about the reflection system. Once reflections exist, the invariant re-engages normally. Found during launch smoke test (task-69ud79b5d).

Problem
New users creating their first task hit
DEFINITION_OF_READYerror requiringmetadata.reflection_exempt=true+reflection_exempt_reason. They have zero context about the reflection system and no way to discover what's needed without iterating through error messages.This was the #1 onboarding blocker found during the launch smoke test.
