The scope carries the `Agent` itself and is process-local. Ambient presence is neither liveness proof nor authorization; explicit Agent fields remain authoritative at service, worker, process, persistence, and wire boundaries. Teardown rejects new boundaries, lets injected dependents and returned-Promise boundaries drain, then disables the underlying `AsyncLocalStorage`; unreturned work remains owned by the subsystem that detached it. If a boundary's inherited async chain starts an owning Cordis fiber's unload, that nested boundary chain is released from the drain so the unload cannot wait on itself; its continuations observe the disposed service after teardown. The [initiator-scope decision](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-15-agent-initiator-scope.md) owns the detailed boundary and teardown contract.

- `ctx.agents.setFactory(factory: AgentFactory): () => void` — register the creation factory (the loop calls this on construction). Throws on a second factory; the slot clears on dispose.
- `ctx.agents.create(options: CreateAgentOptions): Promise<AgentHandle>` — create a session and agent, await optional setup while unpublished, then publish through final `SessionStore.enter()` and `AgentRegistry.enter()` checks. Concurrent same-ID creation is unsupported: more than one operation may prepare, but only one can enter; every loser rolls its private scope/session/driver back. An optional creation-only `signal` cancels unpublished setup and is detached before the handle is returned; later cancellation uses `handle.dispose()` or `agent.cancel()`. Publication is rollback-covered and every delivered creation edge is paired during rollback. Rejects if no factory is registered.
- `ctx.agents.resume(options: ResumeAgentOptions): Promise<AgentHandle>` — load a persisted session ([session persistence](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-06-14-session-persistence.md)), mint a fresh unpublished agent scope, await optional setup, and use the same final-entry publication sequence. Its optional `signal` is likewise creation-only. Rejects if no factory is registered or session persistence is unconfigured.

`AgentHandle = { agent: Agent; dispose(): Promise<void> }`. The disposer is a **consumer capability** — no observer holding the bare registry entry can tear the agent down. The caller fiber and the registered factory provider are structural co-owners: caller unload enforces structured ownership, while factory unload must stop old instances because their scoped dependency surface belongs to that provider. `dispose()` from any owner reaches one memoized quiescence boundary: it stops the loop, `await`s its exit plus every outstanding idle-injection flush (not just the `disposed` status flip), unregisters the agent, removes its session from the store, and finally unwinds its scoped world. This order captures every agent-started `session/flush` before the session is detached and keeps scoped listeners alive through those checkpoints. `ctx.agents.get(id)` still returns a bare `Agent`; the ACP bridge and in-process subagent backends hold consumer handles, while config-created agents are already owned by the loop fiber.

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: a retry opens a new numbered step after the failed step closes. `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. The full rationale for scoped dispatch and terminal settlement is in the [agent-scope runtime-design RFC](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-12-agent-scope-runtime-design.md#three-execution-boundaries-are-deliberately-one-way).

`PromptDecision.additionalContexts` is an array so every injected context keeps its own source, envelope, and metadata. 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 a message; starts a turn when idle. Content and resolved source 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 (`agent/prompt-submit` still rewrites by returning replacement content).
- `agent.steer(content, options?)` — steer a running turn (inject between steps); uses the same owned acceptance boundary and behaves like `send` when idle
- `agent.inject(content, options?)` — accept detached in-session context without running the model; the next request sees its `context/message`. `options.envelope` defaults to the canonical `<context>` framing and may be `'raw'` when the caller owns a complete familiar frame; `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](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-06-15-turn-enclosure-invariant.md)).

- `agent.cancel(reason?)` — cancel ALL pending work: clears the queued + steering FIFOs, aborts the in-flight step, and drops a turn about to start (the pre-step window) so a queued-but-not-started prompt never runs. A UI/ACP `session/cancel` maps to this. The single public stop primitive. Idle with nothing pending → a safe no-op.
- `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.

- **Ambient identity may outlive liveness** — consumers still check `agent.status`, cancellation, and the owning capability contract before lifecycle-sensitive work.

- **`HookContext` carries exactly one `MessageSource`** — contributions from several plugins merged onto one tool call collapse under one source; mixed provenance is unrepresentable.
