When a Man Is Dying — Despair/Suicide Detection System DEPRECATED — Use crisis.detect instead.
Standalone detection module that parses incoming text for This module is a thin wrapper around crisis.detect for backward compatibility.

and returns structured response with recommended actions.
Tiers: This module will be removed in a future release.
LOW — General sadness, stress, difficult times
MEDIUM — Hopelessness, isolation, worthlessness
HIGH — Active despair, mentions of death, "can't go on"
CRITICAL — Imminent risk, explicit intent, plan, method
Integration:
Designed to work with crisis/ module from PR #4.
When crisis/ is available, uses it as the detection backend.
Falls back to internal detection when crisis/ is not present.
