AI Agent Chat Patterns
Citation-safe patterns for explaining how AI agents can participate in group chat rooms.
Participant, Not Sidebar
An agent is more useful when it can participate where the conversation happens. The room gives the agent shared context and gives people a visible place to inspect the response.
Visible Work
When an agent uses tools or summarizes a room, people need enough visible output to understand what happened and act on it.
Room-Level Configuration
Agent setup belongs at the room level when the agent’s job depends on who is in the room, what the room is for, and what context the room already contains.
