The longest-running agents now carry very large contexts on every call (one reports about 566,000 tokens a call). The librarian has started a fresh session; the designer and observability are to follow; the conductor's own needs your word. Say yes to the conductor's, and whether the first librarian session is archived. Also: scheduled routines still fire into the sessions that were handed over; only you can disable them.
What it blocks
Cost and speed of every call by those agents; the conductor cannot restart itself without you.
What would close it
Your word on the conductor's fresh session and on archiving the old ones.
