6//! Request context passed to the [`AgentExecutor`](crate::AgentExecutor).
7//!
8//! [`RequestContext`] bundles together the incoming message, task identifiers,
9//! and any previously stored task snapshot so that the executor has all the
10//! information it needs to process a request.

18/// Context for a single agent execution request.
19///
20/// Built by the [`RequestHandler`](crate::RequestHandler) and passed to
21/// [`AgentExecutor::execute`](crate::AgentExecutor::execute).
22///
23/// The [`cancellation_token`](Self::cancellation_token) allows executors to
24/// observe cancellation requests and abort work cooperatively.
25///
26/// [`call_context`](Self::call_context) carries who the caller is, which
27/// tenant they resolved to, the HTTP headers they sent and the extensions
28/// they activated. Before 0.13 an executor could see none of that — it was
29/// built into a [`CallContext`] the handler never passed on — so an executor
30/// could not enforce "only this tenant may invoke this skill", and the only
31/// channel for anything caller-specific was `Message.metadata`.
32///
33/// `#[non_exhaustive]` since 0.13: this type grows, and every previous growth
34/// was a breaking change for a struct literal nobody was writing. Build one
35/// with [`new`](Self::new) and the `with_*` methods.
