+Student/self-distillation environment layer.
+
+This module adds prompt-logprob fetching from the student rollout server itself
+before the scored group is sent to the API.
+
+By default, the student server scores the exact token IDs already present in the
+group. Override-driven prompt/message scoring is supported only when the
+resulting prompt tokenization matches the original token sequence exactly.
