Call the phase

What it does

States which pattern the conversation is working in now: opens the session in its declared pattern, and moves it to the next phase when this one is done, with a reason attached. Every call is a signed message in the record, and every call is advisory.

Where it happens

The agent does this in two activities across one reference process. Each one names the activity as that process words it.

• Open the Session
  • ref/gm/run-a-working-session, activity 5 - Run a Working Session
• Work the Agenda
  • ref/gm/run-a-working-session, activity 6 - Run a Working Session

What to record

Its phase calls, plan statements, turn namings and departure notes, each a signed message in the conversation's own record. It keeps no second copy and produces no minutes document, because the record already holds everything it did, signed, ordered and attributable - a separate minutes document would be a weaker copy of the books.

That contract covers every activity this abstract agent takes on, and it is repeated in com.agentcatalog.agent/RECORDS.md. What the abstract agent does not do is in com.agentcatalog.agent/NOT.md.
