Returns

Consultation Consultation! — A Consultation: the VERBATIM TRANSCRIPT is the record (bounded turn rows — read via consultationTurns) and the MEMORY is the STORED rolling summary ON this record — auditable, purgeable, merchant-visible, never hidden model state. Each ask composes the summary + the last 12 turns verbatim + the asked materials' STORED extractions (EXTRACT-THEN-COMPOSE — raw content is read exactly once, at material confirm). Aldric may attach a DRAFTED PLAN to a reply; TAKING a drafted plan (takeConsultationPlan) mints a Scratchpad through the live spine (origin consultation) and the walk proceeds under the TAKER's own capability (the hardened-Aldric law — the chat holds ZERO mutation authority). Outgrowing the 200-turn transcript refuses HONESTLY naming the cure: a follow-on consultation linked via followOnOfId (never silent middle-loss). USER-parented (the consulter owns the chat), group-rooted. The ops event domain (at.ops.consultation.*).

Dry run

Add dryRun: true to the request envelope (extensions.at) to rehearse this call: every check runs, the write is rehearsed against the current records and nothing is stored; the answer is the refusal a real call would give, or the record it would create. Every response to a rehearsal carries dryRun: true, so a rehearsed record is never mistaken for a saved one.
