Description

When Navie auto-activates help mode, the user is presented with the following message:

It looks like you are asking for help using AppMap, so I'm activating @help mode and basing my 
answer primarily on AppMap documentation. To disable this behavior, re-ask your question and 
start with the option /nohelp or with a mode selector such as @explain.

This message should only be presented once per thread.

Research direction

Start by locating the TypeScript path that auto-activates Navie's @help mode and inspect how conversation or thread state is tracked. Verify the existing help message is emitted only on the first activation within a thread, while later activations omit it; add or run the relevant conversation tests if available.
