Summary
Add an optional toggle to automatically direct replies to the last invoked agent in a thread when that agent has been mentioned in the thread or the originating message.
Problem
In multi-agent conversations, manually specifying which agent to reply to creates friction. When working with an agent across several messages, each reply requires explicitly re-mentioning the agent or re-selecting the target.
Proposed Solution
Implement a global toggle (opt-in) that:
- Detects when an agent has been mentioned in the current thread or the thread-starting message
- Automatically routes new replies to that last invoked agent
- Remains active until the user disables it
This mirrors the mental model from Slack threads where conversation flows naturally within a thread without re-tagging participants on every message.
Scope
- Toggle state is thread-local
- Off by default
- Clears when switching channels or threads
