Textbook mechanism diagram for Event-driven ambient agents: An event bus starts a trackable job that branches to bounded action or an ask-human path.

Summary: ambient agents react to events rather than waiting for a chat prompt. the reference architecture includes a human-in-the-loop ask_human path and trackable jobs.

Why it matters: For nontechnical users, useful agents need reusable operating knowledge, bounded access, and a clear human review path when the system reaches uncertainty or a consequential action.
