Escalation Primitive

An escalation is a structured pause in an agent run. It says: this run is blocked, this is the case, this is the question, this is the evidence, and these are the choices a human can make. The agent supplies decision content:
  • agentId: the workflow or agent that paused.
  • runId: the durable run handle you will use to resume.
  • subject: the real-world object under review.
  • question: the exact decision needed from a reviewer.
  • evidence: an array of strings.
  • choices: selectable outcomes for the reviewer.
  • resume: optional callback instructions.
The policy supplies operations: queue, reviewers, notifications, SLA, timeout behavior, and audit context. See the quickstart for the complete request and callback flow.
