Wire consumer layer: the client plugin's apply mounts ctx.connection (shared api client + single-consumer stream-loop starter); the export face carries the wire contract types, the AbstractApiClient seam, and the loop's sink/config types. The platform subclasses (WebApiClient/FixtureApiClient), the ConnectionController loop, and the fixture data source are package-internal — apply selects and drives them; tests reach them via src. Contract: api-contracts v3 §3.

Keyless fixture

Any fixture query parameter selects the in-memory carrier. fixture=empty starts with no Workspace or Session; fixturePrompt=reject rejects prompts before acceptance; fixtureAttach=fail publishes a Session but rejects its Workspace attachment; fixtureSessionCreate=drop-response publishes and frames a Session before dropping the create response; and fixtureFrames=workspace-first reverses the default session-first create-frame order. Workspace creation by name/path and caller-preallocated SessionIds remain deterministic enough for assembled Web tests to reconcile list and frame arrival.

Model Experience

None, as the wire consumer layer moves already-composed messages between browser and host; nothing here reaches a model request.

KV Cache effect

None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.

Known Limitations and Deferred Work

history's implicit resume is arguable — opening history on an unattached session pulls an agent up host-side; the pure-persistence-read alternative is recorded in the rt-core reconciliation ledger, unchanged in P-I. This package's consumers see it as latency on first open.
ToolEventView/ToolCallView/ToolResultView re-exports are scheduled for removal — they fall when the toolview migration deletes the host viewFor line (presentation belongs to the client); the fixture keeps a local viewFor mirror until then.
