- `agent.send(content, options)` — the one delivery primitive over the (`target` × `wakeup`) matrix; `Agent` is an abstract class whose `followup`/`steer`/`inject` aliases are fixed-preset delegates to it. It returns the accepted message's opaque `AgentMessageId`, which the message's `agent/inbox/enqueue`/`dequeue`/`discard` events carry so a caller can correlate a queued item with its lifecycle. `SendOptions` requires `target`, `wakeup`, and `source`; callers wanting the ordinary user-message preset use `followup(content)`. `target: 'next-turn'` queues one independent FIFO item that, if admitted, becomes the sole ordinary prompt in its turn. `target: 'next-step'` with `wakeup: true` submits steering, while `target: 'next-step'` with `wakeup: false` injects durable context without running the model. The [one-send-one-turn Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/simplification/2026-07-17-one-send-one-turn.md) owns the turn rationale.
|
||||
- `agent.followup(content, options?)` — the `next-turn`/wakeup preset of `send()`: queue an ordinary follow-up turn and wake the driver.
|
||||
- `agent.steer(content, options?)` — the `next-step`/wakeup preset: while a turn is open, stage steering for its next safe boundary without dispatching `agent/prompt-submit`; when idle, delegate to a woken follow-up. Cancellation or disposal may discard pending steering.
|
||||
- `agent.inject(content, options?)` — the `next-step`/no-wakeup preset: append model-facing context without running the model; the next request sees a verbatim user-role message whose provenance is carried by `source`. While a turn is open, injection waits in the outbox for the next safe boundary. While idle, it appends immediately without opening a turn; persistence reacts to `session/event` independently. Injection emits no `agent/inbox/*` event.
|
||||
- `agent.send(input, options)` — the one delivery primitive over the (`target` × `wakeup`) matrix. `input` is the existing `UserMessageData { content, source }`, while `SendOptions` requires only the routing policy `target` and `wakeup`. It returns the accepted message's opaque `AgentMessageId`, which the message's `agent/inbox/enqueue`/`dequeue`/`discard` events carry so a caller can correlate a queued item with its lifecycle. `target: 'next-turn'` queues one independent FIFO item that, if admitted, becomes the sole ordinary prompt in its turn. `target: 'next-step'` with `wakeup: true` submits steering, while `target: 'next-step'` with `wakeup: false` injects durable context without running the model.

Injection emits no `agent/inbox/*` event.
|
||||
- `agent.cancel(cause, options?)` — cancel the active turn and, unless `options.keepInbox`, ALL pending work. Callers must choose the `user | parent` cause explicitly; an active holder copies its discriminant into a detached frozen signal reason before aborting. An effective call emits `agent/cancel-requested` with the cause before clearing queued and steering work; dropped items are reported on `agent/inbox/discard`, and observers may synchronize state but cannot veto cancellation. `keepInbox: true` aborts the turn but preserves queued and steering items (no discard, and un-started work is not dropped). The same-process typed seam adds no runtime validation or compatibility fallback for untyped callers. Repeated active-turn cancellation is first-wins for the signal, and idle cancellation is a safe no-op with no notification. ACP maps to `user`, while in-process parent propagation maps to `parent`. The cause is runtime-only; durable `turn/end` stays coarse `aborted`.
|
||||
- `agent.whenIdle()` — resolve once the agent reaches quiescence after settling out of `running` (idle → immediately; disposed → awaits the loop exit). A non-owner's quiescence-observation hook: it observes the work settling WITHOUT tearing the agent down. Teardown is separate — a lifecycle owner stops and unregisters via `AgentHandle.dispose()`, which awaits the loop exit directly.

`send`, `steer`, and `inject` feed the owning session. `agent/prompt-submit`, `agent/session-prefix`, and other declared events let plugins block a prompt or add request material; this interface contributes no fixed prose itself.
