 The lifecycle edges have two important local caveats. `agent/created` runs after scoped setup and after both session and agent registry entries exist. Setup is trusted composition-only code; the immediately following non-vetoing `agent/session-start` notification is the first supported startup injection point. `agent/disposed` always means the exact agent has left the registry. AgentLoop emits it after its driver is quiescent, while ordered teardown may still be detaching the session and unwinding the scope; custom agents registered directly own any stronger driver-ordering contract themselves.
 
-Most interception points are cooperative waterfalls returning seam-specific decisions. `agent/pre-step` and `agent/post-step` are serial checkpoints around a step's durable work, while `agent/request-error` is the failed-model-request recovery waterfall: it receives the exact error, normalized failure facts, immutable prior-retried facts, and signal after the failed step closes; a retry opens a new numbered step. `agent/turn-stop` is the terminal serial fold: it runs after ordinary continuation and steering folding, and a returned stop remains in force through turn close and flush so later steering cannot create an extra step or turn. Ordinary queued prompts remain intact. Effective broad cancellation first emits the observe-only `agent/cancel-requested` with its resolved reason, then clears queues and aborts; notification failures are contained and cannot veto the stop. The full rationale for scoped dispatch and terminal settlement is in the [agent-scope runtime-design Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-12-agent-scope-runtime-design.md#three-execution-boundaries-are-deliberately-one-way).
+Most interception points are cooperative waterfalls returning seam-specific decisions. Turn-scoped asynchronous seams receive one explicit `AbortSignal`, with `signal` immediately before a waterfall's final `next`; listeners may cooperate but must not retain it as authority over another turn. The signal remains authoritative through terminal policy and is retired immediately before `turn/end` publication, so terminal observers and the following durability flush cannot cancel completed turn work. `agent/pre-step` and `agent/post-step` are serial checkpoints around a step's durable work, while `agent/request-error` is the failed-model-request recovery waterfall: it receives the exact error, normalized failure facts, immutable prior-retried facts, and signal after the failed step closes; a retry opens a new numbered step. `agent/turn-stop` is the terminal serial fold: it runs after ordinary continuation and steering folding, and a returned stop remains in force through turn close and flush so later steering cannot create an extra step or turn. Ordinary queued prompts remain intact. Effective broad cancellation first emits the observe-only `agent/cancel-requested` with its resolved typed cause, then clears queues and aborts; notification failures are contained and cannot veto the stop. The [explicit-cancellation decision](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-16-explicit-turn-cancellation.md) owns signal lifetime; the [agent-scope runtime-design Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-12-agent-scope-runtime-design.md#three-execution-boundaries-are-deliberately-one-way) owns scoped dispatch and terminal settlement.
 
 `PromptDecision.additionalContexts` is an array so every injected context keeps its own source and metadata. `SendOptions.contexts` binds the same shape to one queued message before prompt interception: the default allow decision carries it forward, while a blocked prompt records no context. A listener that wraps a downstream allow preserves its `content` and `additionalContexts` unless it intentionally replaces either field; the returned allow is authoritative. A `ContinuationDecision` reason is narrower: it becomes a `steering/message`, not a `context/message`, and therefore carries only content and source.

 - `agent.send(content, options?)` — queue one independent FIFO item. If claimed, that item becomes the sole ordinary message in its turn; a claimed FIFO successor waits for that turn's checkpoint to settle. Broad cancellation, disposal, or a pre-start failure may instead drop it without a turn. Omitting `options.source` attests direct human input as `{ kind: 'user' }` and may authorize policy consumers, so plugins, schedulers, and other non-human producers provide their own source. Content, resolved source, and `options.contexts` become one detached, deeply frozen lossless-JSON record before `agent/queued` and enqueue; invalid data throws synchronously, and caller or notification-listener in-place mutation cannot change the log or model input. The contexts become individual `context/message` events after the accepted user message, unless `agent/prompt-submit` blocks or replaces the default additional-context decision. The [one-send-one-turn Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/simplification/2026-07-17-one-send-one-turn.md) owns the turn rationale.
 - `agent.steer(content, options?)` — while running, queue steering for the next checkpoint without dispatching `agent/prompt-submit`; when idle, delegate to `send()`. Attached contexts remain in the same frozen record, append immediately after that steering message when drained, survive late-steering conversion to queued input, and disappear with their message on cancellation or terminal discard. Policy can still stop before another step; after turn close and its checkpoint, remaining steering becomes later queued input unless terminal turn policy, cancellation, or disposal discards it.
 - `agent.inject(content, options?)` — accept detached in-session context without running the model; the next request sees its `context/message` with `content` rendered verbatim as a user-role message. `options.meta` persists opaque JSON state without rendering it. While a turn is open it joins that turn, deferring FIFO while the current tool batch executes and draining before turn close if execution is interrupted; while idle it is wrapped in a one-shot `injection` turn and durability checkpoint ([the turn-enclosure invariant](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-06-15-turn-enclosure-invariant.md)).
-- `agent.cancel(reason?)` — cancel ALL pending work: an effective call emits `agent/cancel-requested` before it clears the queued + steering FIFOs, aborts the in-flight step, and drops a turn about to start (the pre-step window). Observers may synchronize their own state but cannot veto cancellation. A UI/ACP `session/cancel` maps to this. The single public stop primitive. Idle with nothing pending → a safe no-op with no notification.
+- `agent.cancel(cause?)` — cancel ALL pending work: an omitted cause means `{ kind: 'user' }`; TypeScript restricts callers to the `user | parent` union, and 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; observers may synchronize state but cannot veto cancellation. 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.
