36/// A clonable handle for interacting with an agent.
37///
38/// `AgentHandle` provides the primary mechanism for communicating with and managing
39/// an agent from outside its own execution context. It encapsulates the necessary
40/// information to send messages to the agent's inbox (`outbox`), identify the agent (`id`),
41/// manage its lifecycle (`stop`), track its tasks (`tracker`), and navigate the
42/// supervision hierarchy (`parent`, `children`, `supervise`).
43///
44/// Handles can be cloned freely, allowing multiple parts of the system to hold references
45/// to the same agent. Sending messages through the handle is asynchronous.
46///
47/// Key functionalities are exposed through implemented traits:
48/// *   [`AgentHandleInterface`]: Core methods for interaction (sending messages, stopping, etc.).
49/// *   [`Broker`]: Methods for broadcasting messages via the system broker.
50/// *   [`Subscriber`]: Method for accessing the system broker handle.
51///
52/// Equality and hashing are based solely on the agent's unique identifier (`id`).
