/**
 * Observer agents — CC 2.1.206 parity (逐字锚: docs/CC206-OBSERVER-ANCHORS-2026-07-11.md).
 *
 * A definition may declare `observer: "<agent name>"`: whenever that agent runs, the named agent type
 * is auto-spawned in the background, PAIRED with it. The observer receives read-only activity digests
 * of the observed run (assistant text / tool calls / tool results / turn boundaries) and may push a
 * report back through the {@link createObserverReportTool | ObserverReport} tool — the expected steady
 * state is silence. One-way by construction: the observed agent never replies, and SendMessage is
 * refused in BOTH directions.
 *
 * This module is the anchor-faithful half (digest model / renderers / envelope / postamble / framing
 * prompt / declaration resolver / pairing state machine / ObserverReport tool); the spawn wiring
 * (event tap on the delegation lanes + auto-spawn + delivery) lives in `subagent.ts`.
 *
 * CC anchor coordinates cited per symbol below refer to `claude-cli-2.1.206.pretty.js`.
