# 核心

[English](core.md) | 中文

**核心**子系统即 [`packages/core`](../../packages/core/README.md)，包含每个组合都会启动的包：事件溯源的会话日志、系统提示词组装、工具注册表、agent 类型，以及驱动它们的具体循环。本页说明 `agent`/`agent-loop` 这对包所声明的内容：agent 如何被创建与拥有，以及 `Agent` 句柄的投递、取消与拦截约定；本页还说明每个子系统都遵循的两个类型模式。该组的专属页面与目录其余部分见[子系统 README](README.md)。

## 主干逐包速览

一个轮次按同一条循环流经六个包：[`agent-loop`](../../packages/core/agent-loop) 中的 driver 认领一条排队的 prompt，在[会话日志](session.md)（`ctx.sessions`）上开启轮次，通过 [system-prompt](system-prompt.md)（`ctx.systemPrompt`）组装请求前缀并从日志派生历史，经 [LLM seam](llm-streaming.md) 流式获取模型响应，经[工具注册表](tools.md)（`ctx.tools`）分发工具调用，并把每个模型可见的事实追加回日志，供下一步派生。循环搬运的对话词汇——`Message`、`ContentBlock`、`StreamChunk`、模型请求——由 [`packages/llm`](../../packages/llm/README.md) 声明，记录在 [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md)。

| 包 | 负责内容 | 页面 |
|---|---|---|
| `session/` | 只追加的 `SessionEvent` 日志与内存 store——唯一事实来源（`ctx.sessions`） | [session.md](session.md) |
| `system-prompt/` | 提示词段落与工具 schema 组装（`ctx.systemPrompt`） | [system-prompt.md](system-prompt.md) |
| `tools/` | 带作用域的工具注册表与受保护的执行流水线（`ctx.tools`） | [tools.md](tools.md) |
| `agent/` | `Agent` 接口、实时注册表、发起者作用域与 `agent/*` 事件词汇（`ctx.agents`） | 本页 |
| `agent-loop/` | 实现公开 `Agent` 约定的具体 driver（`ctx.agentLoop`） | 本页 |
| `scope/` | 注册表与循环用于构建按 agent 作用域的注册原语 | [scope.md](scope.md) |

`scope/` 是这里唯一的非服务包：一个零依赖库（`createScope`/`scopeOf`/`scopeTarget`），在模块图中位于 `session/` 与 `system-prompt/` 之下，正是为了让它们消费它而不形成环。`agent-loop` 是公开 `Agent` 约定的唯一具体实现，放在这里因为它是 harness 的默认产品循环；它在 `ctx.agents.withInitiator()` 内运行每个 driver。扩展插件依赖 `agent`——包括需要发起 Agent 时——而绝不直接依赖 `agent-loop`，因此循环保持可替换。把这条主干接成可运行 agent 的默认组合是 [`examples/agent-spine-demo`](../../packages/examples/agent-spine-demo/README.md)。

## 创建与所有权

消费方通过 `ctx.agents` 创建 agent——`create()` 在一个调用方提供的 `SessionId` 下构建全新会话与 agent，`resume()` 先加载持久会话——或者通过循环的声明式配置条目创建。编程式创建返回归属所有者的句柄：

源码：[`packages/core/agent/src/index.ts`](../../packages/core/agent/src/index.ts)

```ts type-equiv
/**
 * An owned agent plus its disposer, returned by {@link AgentRegistry.create} /
 * {@link AgentRegistry.resume}. The disposer is a CAPABILITY: among consumers,
 * only the holder can tear this agent down. The registered factory provider is
 * also a structural owner because the scoped agent depends on that provider's
 * service API; provider unload stops and drains every live handle it made.
 * `dispose()` stops the loop, awaits its exit, unregisters the agent, removes
 * its session from the store, and finally unwinds its scoped world.
 *
 * `ctx.agents.get(id)` still returns a bare {@link Agent} — the handle is
 * exposed only to the consumer owner that created it; the structural provider
 * reaches the same teardown internally. Config-created agents (the loop's own
 * startup) are owned by the loop fiber and never need a handle.
 */
interface AgentHandle {
  agent: Agent
  dispose(): Promise<void>
}
```

`CreateAgentOptions` 携带共享标识以及新 agent 发布前所需的一切：会话元数据（`meta`——已校验的 `cwd`、fork 谱系、seed 边界、来源分类、委派深度）、fork 用的可选 `seed` 回放前缀、按 agent 的 `AgentOptions`、仅创建期有效的取消 `signal`，以及 `setup`。`ResumeAgentOptions` 是持久标识的对应物：`resumeSessionId`、`agentOptions`、`signal` 与 `setup`。`setup` 回调（`AgentSetup`）在两个 id 都尚未发布时组装 agent 的作用域世界——凡经 `agentCtx` 注册的内容都先于 `agent/created` 与第一次提示词组装存在——并可返回一个在发布前一刻调用的同步 commit；setup 拒绝、commit 抛出或所有者 dispose 都会回滚事务，两个 id 均不发布。

`AgentFactory` 是注册表背后的创建接口：循环经 `ctx.agents.setFactory()` 注册其工厂，因此消费方使用 `ctx.agents` 时无需依赖具体循环包。确切的 `create`/`resume` 签名及回滚约定见下方[生成区块](#ctxagents--agentregistry)。

<a id="the-agent-handle"></a>

## Agent 句柄

`Agent` 是每个插件（UI、钩子、orchestrator）面向编程的 surface；`ctx.agents.get(id)` 返回它，[发起者作用域](#initiating-agent)携带它。具体实现为 dsh-agent-loop 包内部细节；循环外没有任何组件依赖它。统一的 `send` 方法直接暴露 target 与 wakeup 路由；`followup`、`steer` 与 `inject` 是固定预设的别名方法。

源码：[`packages/core/agent/src/types.ts`](../../packages/core/agent/src/types.ts)

```ts type-equiv
/** Public live-agent handle. */
interface Agent {
  /** The single identity shared with {@link session}. */
  readonly id: SessionId
  /** The provider route and model this agent's requests use. */
  readonly options: AgentOptions
  /** The live session this agent drives; its log is the durable source of truth. */
  readonly session: Session
  /** The agent-owned projection of durable pending work. */
  readonly inbox: Inbox
  /** The current lifecycle state, mirrored on every `agent/status` transition. */
  readonly status: AgentStatus
  /** Agent-scoped context; its contributions are agent-local, unwind on disposal, and reject registration afterward. */
  readonly ctx: Context

  /**
   * Clear queued and steering work — unless `keepInbox` — and abort the active
   * turn or between-turn task. The first cause wins for that activity. With no
   * active activity, cancellation is a no-op and does not arm later work.
   * @param cause - the stable caller intent carried by the active operation signal.
   * @param options - cancellation options; `keepInbox` preserves pending work.
   */
  cancel(cause: AgentCancelCause, options?: CancelOptions): void

  /**
   * Resolve after the current whole-agent activity reaches quiescence. This
   * follows replacement work started before the observed driver retires,
   * but does not identify the settlement of any particular message.
   * @returns fulfillment after no active driver or maintenance task remains.
   */
  whenIdle(): Promise<void>

  /**
   * Run one non-turn maintenance task from the true idle phase. The task starts
   * synchronously after claiming that phase; later waking input remains in the
   * inbox until the task settles, while public status stays `idle`.
   * `whenIdle()` follows both the task and any waking work released behind it.
   * @param task - operation whose fulfillment or rejection is preserved, with a signal aborted by {@link cancel}.
   * @throws synchronously when turn-driving or another maintenance task already owns the agent.
   * @returns the task promise.
   */
  runMaintenance<T>(task: (signal: AbortSignal) => Promise<T>): Promise<T>

  /**
   * Route identified input to an inbox boundary and optionally wake the driver.
   * Waking input submitted after active cancellation is queued for the next
   * turn and runs when the aborted activity converges to idle; a `disposed`
   * cancel leaves it parked. A wake submitted while already idle always opens
   * its turn boundary, even when its message is cleared before the driver
   * claims ([cancel-convergence wake latch](../../../../.agents/notes/implemented/bug-fix/2026-08-07-cancel-convergence-wake-latch.md)).
   * @param message - identified content and the source that supplied it.
   * @param target - the preferred next-turn or next-step inbox boundary.
   * @param wakeup - whether delivery may wake the driver.
   */
  send(message: UserMessage, target: InboxTarget, wakeup: boolean): void

  /**
   * Queue an ordinary follow-up turn and wake the driver. The item becomes the
   * sole ordinary message of its own turn.
   * @param message - identified prompt content and the source that supplied it.
   */
  followup(message: UserMessage): void

  /**
   * Submit steering for the nearest step. An idle driver starts a turn;
   * a running driver consumes it at its next step boundary.
   * A rejected step leaves steering parked in the inbox until the next
   * wake; cancellation or disposal may discard pending steering.
   * @param message - identified steering content and the source that supplied it.
   */
  steer(message: UserMessage): void

  /**
   * Queue model-facing context for the next pre-step without waking the
   * driver. A running driver claims it at the nearest later step boundary;
   * idle drivers leave it pending until follow-up or steering
   * wakes them. It may miss a request whose pre-step already claimed its
   * batch. Cancellation or disposal may discard pending context.
   * @param message - identified injected context and the source that supplied it.
   */
  inject(message: UserMessage): void
}
```

```ts type-equiv
/**
 * An agent's lifecycle state, emitted on every transition as `agent/status`:
 * `idle` means no driver is active; `running` begins when waking input starts
 * cancellable pre-step processing and lasts while the driver drains,
 * closes, or checkpoints turns. Disposal removes the agent from its registry;
 * it is not a third observable status.
 */
type AgentStatus = 'idle' | 'running'
```

`running` 描述整个驱动器的排空区间，可能跨越连续的排队轮次；它不能证明某个轮次仍然打开。dispose（资源释放）会把 agent 从注册表移除并发出 `agent/disposed`；它不是一个终态 status 值。`followup()` 不返回句柄：其 `MessageId` 标识的是持久的 inbox 插入、认领与丢弃事实，而非之后的助手输出或轮次结束。`whenIdle()` 观察的是整个 agent，因此只有当调用方明确拥有从回执到空闲的这段区间时，才能把它称为一次 run（[决策](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-30-followup-enqueue-and-owned-runs.md)）。

```ts type-equiv
/** Merge-extensible agent creation options. Persona belongs to system-prompt sections. */
interface AgentOptions {
  /** Provider route (must have a registered adapter at call time). */
  provider?: string
  /** Model id interpreted by the selected provider adapter. */
  model?: string
  /** Maximum output tokens for each conversation-model request. */
  maxTokens?: number
}
```

在 `agent/request` 之后，分发要求 `provider` 与 `model` 都存在。提供 `maxTokens` 时，它必须是正安全整数，并限制每次对话模型请求的输出；省略时，系统会在写入请求 header 前填入确切模型的适配器默认值，否则提供方行为保持不变。agent 作用域的 `deployment:persona` 提示词段落可以遮蔽全局默认 persona。

inbox 即投递词汇——agent 以持久投影形式拥有的两条有序待处理消息列表：

```ts type-equiv
/** One of the two ordered pending-message lists owned by an agent. */
type InboxTarget = 'next-turn' | 'next-step'
```

每个待处理入队项就是其 `UserMessage`；`MessageId` 是唯一标识。`Inbox.append`、`prepend`、`replace`、`remove`、`clear`、`splice` 与 `claim` 会记录规范化的持久 `agent/inbox/spliced` 变更，并拒绝重复的待处理 id。`replace(messageId, newMessage)` 与 `remove(messageId)` 通过 `MessageId` 跨两份列表定位待处理消息；替换可以改变标识，并先将旧消息作为 discarded 发布，再将新消息作为 inserted 发布。普通删除和 `clear()` 都表示取消。`claim(target)` 通过无 outcome 的纯删除 splice 移除拟进入步骤的批次——全部 `next-step` 输入，外加轮次边界上的一条 `next-turn` 消息——且不发出 discarded 通知；循环另行逐条发出 claimed 通知。UI 投影等整体队列消费方通过持久 splice 重建 `nextTurn` 与 `nextStep`，而跟踪单条消息的消费方使用精确的 `agent/inbox/inserted`、`claimed` 与 `discarded` 通知。

取消：

```ts type-equiv
/** Options for {@link Agent.cancel}. */
interface CancelOptions {
  /**
   * Preserve queued and steering inbox items instead of discarding them. The
   * active turn is still aborted, but un-started and pending work survives for a
   * later turn and no canceled inbox splice is logged.
   */
  keepInbox?: boolean | undefined
}
```

```ts type-equiv
/** Why an active agent driver was cancelled. */
type AgentCancelCause =
  | { readonly kind: 'user' }
  | { readonly kind: 'parent' }
  | { readonly kind: 'hook'; readonly reason: string }
  | { readonly kind: 'disposed' }
```

cause 是由 TypeScript 强制约束的同进程输入。活跃的取消持有者会将它复制到仅运行时的 `AbortSignal.reason`；signal 不授予协作监听器任何分类权限。持久 `turn/end` 保留粗粒度 `{ kind: 'aborted' }` 结果；若需记录谁请求了取消，应使用单独的持久事件，而不是让终态结果承担额外含义。

[事件分类](../architecture.md#event)负责 `agent/*` 生命周期、检查点与 waterfall（瀑布式事件）约定。轮次和步骤边界是持久会话事件，而不是 agent emit。

<a id="initiating-agent"></a>

## 发起 Agent

`ctx.agents` 携带的进程本地 initiator 就是上面的确切 `Agent`，不是单独的 frame 或复制的标识。环境中存在该值既不能证明存活，也不代表授权；[initiator 作用域决策](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-15-agent-initiator-scope.md)定义其生命周期和作用域规则。

## 拦截决策

pre-step 决策使用与持久 user-role 输入相同、带标识的 `UserMessage` 类型。进入步骤的批次具有权威性，并保留每条消息的 `id` 和 `source`。钩子桥接层把其原生决策字段映射到这一类型化结果上。

源码：[`packages/core/agent/src/types.ts`](../../packages/core/agent/src/types.ts)

`agent/pre-step` 接收一个 payload，携带独占的已领取批次（`messages`）、拟进入步骤的坐标（`turn`、`step`）与当前轮次的取消 `signal`。首次提案在已打开的轮次内、任何步骤开始前运行；工具 continuation 可以在步骤之间提交空的已领取批次：

它返回 `PreStepDecision`。reject 不会打开步骤。enter 提供在 `step/start` 后追加的完整消息批次；最终决策省略的已领取消息保持已删除，而领取后插入的输入仍留待后续处理：

```ts type-equiv
/** Whether and with which messages the loop enters a proposed step. */
type PreStepDecision =
  | { kind: 'reject' }
  | { kind: 'enter'; messages: UserMessage[] }
```

`agent/request-error` 在失败的模型步骤关闭之后、其轮次关闭之前运行。listener 可以在失败轮次的 signal 仍然存活时修复持久状态或 await 策略工作。处理该错误的 listener 返回 `{ kind: 'retry' }` 且不调用 `next()`；默认的 `undefined` 会让失败保持终态。

```ts type-equiv
/** Action returned by a listener that owns model-request recovery. */
type RequestErrorAction = { kind: 'retry' } | undefined
```

`agent/pre-step` 是请求推导前唯一的串行监听器链。`agent/turn-stopping` 在轮次没有工具或 steering（中途引导）后续时运行，先于最后一次 steering 排空。

`agent/session-start` 携带 `SessionStartSource`（会话生命周期为何开始；桥接层据此匹配其 SessionStart）：

```ts type-equiv
/** Why a session lifecycle began; seeded creates are `startup`, while persisted loads are `resume`. */
type SessionStartSource = 'startup' | 'resume' | 'clear' | 'compact'
```

## 会话

`Session` 是一份类型化 `SessionEvent` 的**仅追加日志**——唯一的真源。LLM（大语言模型）消息历史从日志*派生*（`deriveMessages()`），而非单独存储。每个条目携带单调的 `seq`、`time` 与按 `type` 判别的 `data` payload；surface 变体还可以在 `sourceEventSeqs` 中列出被引用的较早事件，并携带 `surfaceOp`。

`SessionEvent` 信封的确切条件字段、十二种事件变体（`turn/start`、`turn/end`、`step/start`、`step/end`、`user/message`、`assistant/chunk`、`assistant/message`、`tool/call`、`tool/result`、`steering/message`、`todo/write`、`request/header`）、`deriveMessages()` 投影规则、`TurnTrigger`/`TurnEndReason` 原因以及执行封闭和独立事件规则都在 **[session.md](session.md)** 中。日志如何持久化——`SessionPersistence` 接口、JSONL/SQLite 后端、`session/flush` 检查点、崩溃恢复与 `SessionHeader`——则在 **[persistence.md](persistence.md)** 中。

## `ToolDefinition`

唯一属于核心的流水线编写类型：每个已注册工具*是什么*——一个面向模型的 `ToolSchema` 加上一个 `execute` 函数，以及可选的最终内容回调与 UI 回调。工具作者很少手动构造它（`defineTool` DSL 会使用类型化参数构建），但它是注册表存储并由循环用于分发的约定。

其完整字段、`defineTool`/`ValueSchemaSpec`/`ParameterSchemaSpec` 类型化 schema DSL、`ToolExecution`/`ToolExecutionResult` waterfall 类型，以及工具展示 UI 类型都在 **[tools.md](tools.md)** 中。

## 全仓通用类型模式

两个模式在每个子系统中反复出现，只在此处记录一次。

### `…Map → derived-union` 模式

harness 中几乎所有可扩展的和类型都遵循同一模式：一个以判别标签为键的接口（`…Map`），联合类型由 `keyof` 派生。插件通过**声明合并**添加变体——无需修改拥有该类型的包。

```ts ignore-check
// The pattern, schematically:
interface ThingMap {
  'a': { kind: 'a'; /* … */ }
  'b': { kind: 'b'; /* … */ }
}
type ThingKind = keyof ThingMap          // 'a' | 'b'
type Thing = ThingMap[keyof ThingMap]    // the discriminated union

// A plugin extends it without touching the source package:
declare module '@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm' {
  interface ThingMap {
    'c': { kind: 'c'; /* … */ }
  }
}
```

六个规范 map 使用此模式；插件作者扩展它们：

| Map | 包 | 派生 | 目录 |
|---|---|---|---|
| `ContentBlockMap` | dsh-llm | `ContentBlock` | [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md#content-blocks-and-messages) |
| `MessageSourceMap` | dsh-llm | `MessageSource` | [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md#content-blocks-and-messages) |
| `FinishReasonMap` | dsh-llm | `FinishReason` | [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md#the-model-request-and-result) |
| `TurnTriggerMap` | dsh-session | `TurnTrigger` | [session.md](session.md) |
| `TurnEndReasonMap` | dsh-session | `TurnEndReason` | [session.md](session.md) |
| `SessionEventMap` | dsh-session | `SessionEvent` | [session.md](session.md) |

消费方最常 `switch` 的两个大型判别联合类型是：**`StreamChunk`**（流式协议）和 **`SessionEvent`**（日志条目）。按仓库约定，对标签做 `switch`——不要链式 `if`——这样每个分支都能窄化类型，拼错的标签会编译失败。

<a id="branded-ids"></a>

### 品牌化 ID

在包之间传递的 ID 都经过**品牌化**——结构上是字符串，但在类型层面不可互换（不能把 `SessionId` 传给需要 `CallId` 的位置）。每种类型通过各自的工厂构造；比较、日志记录和 JSON 行为与普通字符串相同。

`Branded<B>` 原语位于独立的纯类型包 [dsh-brand](../../packages/util/brand) 中（没有运行时代码，也不依赖 Harness 包），因此任何包都能品牌化其拥有的 id，而无需依赖无关的能力包。

源码：[`packages/util/brand/src/index.ts`](../../packages/util/brand/src/index.ts)

```ts type-equiv
/** A string carrying a compile-time-only brand `B`. */
type Branded<B extends string> = string & { readonly [BRAND]: B }
```

两个核心 ID 是 `CallId`（关联工具调用及其结果；dsh-llm）和 `SessionId`（活跃 agent 与持久会话共享的标识；dsh-session）。能力包也会品牌化各自的 id，例如 [tasks.md](tasks.md) 中的 `TaskId`。

## Cordis API

Generated from source by `scripts/gen-cordis-catalog.ts` (verified fresh by `pnpm run verify-cordis-catalog` in doc-sync; regenerate with `pnpm run gen-cordis-catalog`) — this section is byte-identical in both language sides of the page. Signature blocks use a `ts cordis-catalog` fence and keep the original source JSDoc; dispatch modes are defined in the [primer](../cordis-primer.md#dispatch-modes), and the framework-inherited `ctx` API lives in [cordis-api/inherited.md](../cordis-api/inherited.md).

<a id="ctxagentdefaultmodel--agentdefaultmodelservice"></a>

### `ctx.agentDefaultModel` — `AgentDefaultModelService`

Owns the default model selection independently of any Host or transport. The composition entry remains usable without a settings provider; when one is mounted, its user layer is read live.

```ts cordis-catalog
/**
 * Read the current default model selection.
 * @returns a detached provider, model, and optional reasoning selection.
 */
currentSelection(): ModelSelection

/**
 * Save the complete default model selection. A deployment without a settings
 * provider keeps its composition entry.
 * @param next - resolved selection accepted by an entry point.
 * @returns fulfillment after the optional settings write settles.
 */
async saveSelection(next: ModelSelection): Promise<void>
```

### `ctx.agentLoop` — `AgentLoop`

Concrete agent factory and driver service.

```ts cordis-catalog
/**
 * Create an agent and session under one caller-supplied identity, owned by
 * the accessing fiber. Constructor-driven config calls mint a fresh combined
 * id before entering this boundary.
 * @param id - shared agent/session identity.
 * @param options - concrete loop options.
 * @param meta - optional fresh-session workspace metadata.
 * @returns the published running agent.
 */
create(id: SessionId, options: AgentOptions = {}, meta: Pick<SessionHeader, 'cwd'> = {}): Agent

/**
 * Create an owned agent on a caller-supplied session id.
 * @param ownerCtx - caller context that structurally owns the lifecycle.
 * @param options - identities, session seed/metadata, loop options, setup, and cancellation.
 * @returns the published handle.

async createAgent(ownerCtx: Context, options: CreateAgentOptions): Promise<AgentHandle>

/**

async resume(ownerCtx: Context, options: ResumeAgentOptions): Promise<AgentHandle>
```

<a id="ctxagentpresets--agentpresets"></a>

### `ctx.agentPresets` — `AgentPresets`

Registry over the deployment's agent presets.

Discovery is unmemoized: `list()` and `resolve()` re-read the roots on every call so a preset authored while the process runs is visible immediately, and a preset deleted underneath a picker disappears from the next read.

```ts cordis-catalog
/**
 * Every preset the configured roots currently supply.
 * @returns the presets, first-root-wins per id.
 */
async list(): Promise<AgentPreset[]>

/**
 * Resolve one preset by id.
 *
 * A broken preset resolves — deleting one, reading one, and reporting one
 * all need the row — and the mounting paths refuse it AFTER resolution
 * through {@link resolveMountable}.
 * @param id - the preset id, or `undefined` for {@link defaultId}.
 * @returns the resolved preset.
 * @throws when no configured root supplies that id.
 */
async resolve(id?: string): Promise<AgentPreset>

/**
 * Compose one agent from a preset: ensure the preset's standing mount, then
 * parent the agent's scope key to it so the mount's registrations and
 * listeners cover this agent.
 *
 * Call from the agent factory's `setup(agentCtx)`; a rejection there rolls
 * the agent creation back, so a broken preset never yields a half-composed
 * session.
 * @param agentCtx - the agent's scope context.
 * @param id - the preset id, or `undefined` for {@link defaultId}.
 * @returns the preset that was composed, for the caller to record.
 * @throws when the preset is unknown or its composition is unusable.

async mount(agentCtx: Context, id?: string): Promise<AgentPreset>

/**
 * Join one agent to the SAME standing composition another already runs on.
 *

 * would re-read the roster, and a composition file edited since the parent

 * Synchronous, and with no composition failure mode of its own — it reads no
 * roster, mounts nothing, and touches no file — which is what lets a child

 * the `@throws` below record.

### `ctx.agents` — `AgentRegistry`

Agent service (`ctx.agents`): tracks live agents and carries the initiating Agent through one process-local asynchronous driver chain. Agent *creation* is provided by whichever plugin implements the AgentFactory (`@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-loop`), registered via setFactory.

Initiator methods provide same-process causal attribution only. Ambient presence is neither liveness proof nor authorization; subjects and owners remain explicit, as does identity at worker, process, persistence, and wire boundaries. Returned Promise boundaries drain during teardown, except a nested lineage that starts an owning-fiber unload is excluded from its own drain.

```ts cordis-catalog
/**
 * Read the Agent that initiated the inherited asynchronous driver chain.
 * Use this optional form for logging, tracing, metrics, or host attribution
 * that also supports agentless calls. When a parent creates a child, setup
 * reports the causal parent while `agentCtx.agent` identifies the child.
 * @returns the inherited Agent, or `undefined` outside an initiator boundary
 *   and inside an explicit clearing boundary.
 * @throws when this service instance has been disposed.
 */

 * @returns the inherited Agent.
 * @throws when no initiator is active or this service instance has been disposed.
