`SubagentStartRequest.label` is an optional short durable display label for a session-backed one-shot child. Model-facing delegation supplies its existing `description`; lower-level callers need not invent presentation metadata. Continuable starts always carry their own required label. `signal` is required and is the canonical cancellation channel for a one-shot `start`. An abort before publication makes `start()` reject after rollback; an abort after publication cancels the returned run's remaining turn work without hiding its id. The request may also select a model, require structured output, cap delegation depth, restrict child tools, or set a child persona. For a continuable start or follow-up, the caller signal owns lookup, materialization, and admission only until inbox acceptance; afterward the manager owns the Activation independently, so later caller cancellation neither cancels the accepted turn nor disposes the child.

Continuable children do not create `SubagentRun` or Tasks. The continuation manager directly owns one process-local Activation and retained `AgentHandle` per resident child Session, uses the Agent inbox as the only FIFO, and cold-resumes from the durable descriptor. Exact live direct-parent identity authorizes parent-to-child delivery. Exact live child identity authorizes reports; the manager derives the recipient from durable `parentSession`, and `MessageSource` remains provenance rather than authority.

When `ctx.sessionProjections` is available, the service registers `subagentTiming`. The projection resets at each descriptor so a fork seed's ancestor work cannot enter the child's total, then accumulates `turn/start` → `turn/end` active time and retains same-cut `active.since` and `active.through` bounds for an open turn. While that turn remains open, `active.through` follows the latest folded event, giving an inactive consumer a conservative crash bound without mixing in newer session metadata.

When `ctx.sessionProjections` is available, the service registers two projection units. `subagentTiming` resets at each descriptor so a fork seed's ancestor work cannot enter the child's total, then accumulates `turn/start` → `turn/end` active time and retains same-cut `active.since` and `active.through` bounds for an open turn; while that turn remains open, `active.through` follows the latest folded event, giving an inactive consumer a conservative crash bound without mixing in newer session metadata. `subagent` folds the durable identity — mode plus creation label — from `subagent/descriptor` events with the same last-wins reset discipline, so a fork seed's ancestor descriptor stands only until the child's own overrides it; a malformed or unrecognized-version payload folds to no value, indistinguishable from a log with no descriptor, and never throws.

`registerContinuableSetup()` lets optional packages add child-scoped capabilities without teaching the continuation manager their names. Contributions install synchronously before Activation publication, roll back with failed setup, and are released with the child scope. New grants wait for the next Activation, while contribution removal revokes every resident installation immediately.

## Collection model

|
||||
The model-facing tool collects synchronously by default: it awaits the child result and disposes the run before returning. One-shot background delegation registers a plain Task in the tool, whose generic status, collection, and cancellation tools own later interaction, and persists its model-supplied `description` as the optional display label. Continuable background delegation calls `ctx.subagents.startContinuable()` and returns only the durable child id; the child owns its own turns from inbox acceptance, so there is no Task, no result promise, and no public subagent cancellation — a caller sends later work with the `send_message` follow-up tool, and the durable child Session remains the source of the child's detailed output. The continuation manager exists only while `ctx.agents` is available, and session persistence is resolved per continuation operation. Independently, `listChildren()` resolves session query and dynamically imports its optional runtime only when called, then interprets a read-only live-preferred scan of all descriptor-bearing direct children without consulting the continuation manager, Agent registrations, Activations, or providers. Each healthy row derives its read-time `hasChildren` hint from traced direct-descendant headers carrying durable `origin: 'subagent'`; it does not read descendant event logs, and the descriptor-backed child catalog remains authoritative when expanded. Service consumers such as a UI can retain both modes and choose a fallback for an unlabeled one-shot child; the model-facing `list_agents` tool projects only `continuable` entries and maps service activity to its existing `running`/`complete` vocabulary. The scan forwards the caller's signal to cancellable trace and exact-read operations, checks cancellation around the remaining event-list read, and reports every observed abort as `SubagentError` code `CANCELLED`.

The continuation manager exists only while `ctx.agents` is available, and session persistence is resolved per continuation operation. Independently, `listChildren()` enumerates the live-preferred merge of the live session store and optional session persistence — live-only when persistence is absent, since a cold child cannot be resumed then either — and serves each child's durable mode/label from the registered `subagent` projection unit: the registry's watermark snapshot for a live child, one bounded-concurrency persistence inspection folded through the registry for a cold one. The projection fold is the single classification authority; listing parses no descriptor itself. A served identity produces a child row; a settled candidate whose fold served no identity is a `corrupt` diagnostic, a failed inspection is a transient `unavailable` retried on the next listing, and a running candidate without an identity yet is omitted (the creation window before its descriptor is appended). It never consults the continuation manager, Agent registrations, Activations, or providers. Each child row derives its read-time `hasChildren` hint from merged headers carrying durable `origin: 'subagent'`; it does not read descendant event logs, and the descriptor-backed child catalog remains authoritative when expanded. Service consumers such as a UI can retain both modes and choose a fallback for an unlabeled one-shot child; the model-facing `list_agents` tool projects only `continuable` entries and maps service activity to its existing `running`/`complete` vocabulary. The listing forwards the caller's signal to every persistence read, checks cancellation around each of those awaits, and reports every observed abort as `SubagentError` code `CANCELLED`; an unmounted projection registry fails loud with `SUBAGENT_CONTROL_PROJECTIONS_UNAVAILABLE`.

Continuable Activations await a best-effort final session flush without treating listener participation as durability confirmation. One-shot runs retain best-effort session checkpointing, so a completed one-shot child is discoverable after disposal only when its session actually reached persistence; the service does not invent a catalog entry from Task history when that checkpoint is absent.
