/**
* Shared command prefix extraction using Haiku LLM
*
* This module provides a factory for creating command prefix extractors
* that can be used by different shell tools. The core logic
* (Haiku query, response validation) is shared, while tool-specific
* aspects (examples, pre-checks) are configurable.
