 - `whenIdle()` — resolves once the agent reaches quiescence after settling out of `running` (resolves immediately when already idle; awaits the loop exit when disposed). A non-owner's quiescence-observation hook: it lets a consumer await the current work settling **without** disposing the agent. It is NOT teardown — it does not stop queued work, unregister the agent, or detach the session; a lifecycle owner tears an agent down with `await AgentHandle.dispose()` (which stops the loop, awaits its exit, and unregisters).

-**TODO(sub-agents)**: `spawn`/`fork` land on `AgentLoop.create()` — fork seeds the child Session with the parent's event log, spawn starts fresh; children are ordinary `Agent` handles so `steer()` and event subscription work uniformly. Inter-agent channels beyond these primitives are deliberately deferred.
+**Subagents**: `spawn`/`fork` are realized by the [`@deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent`](../packages/subagent/subagent) seam (a named-provider registry on `ctx.subagents`), not a method on `Agent`. The in-process backends create the child via `ctx.agents.create` — fork seeds the child Session with a balanced completed-turn prefix of the parent's log (`CreateAgentOptions.seed`), spawn starts fresh; children are ordinary `Agent` handles so `steer()` and event subscription work uniformly. Out-of-process transports (ACP, and later A2A / Codex app-server / Claude Code SDK) register as sibling providers. See [docs/core-data-structures/subagent.md](core-data-structures/subagent.md) and [the subagent RFC](rfc/implemented/feature/2026-06-21-subagent-capability-seam.md). Inter-agent channels beyond delegation remain deferred.
