AI Summary: This RFC proposes adding a new 'converse' capability to allow agents to participate in conversations, addressing limitations where advisory agents cannot comment and enabling first-class agent integration in platforms like Linear. The current system conflates conversation and artifact modification, restricting agent actions. The solution involves creating 'converse' as a distinct capability, separate from existing modes, to grant agents the ability to comment and interact within issue threads and other conversational contexts.
