-Agents ask questions with the `ask_human` MCP tool. Each question carries a `context` with the background the human needs to answer without reading the transcript, and its choices are written inline in that context as Markdown list items: `- ( ) text` for pick-one choices, with exactly one `- (*) text` marking the recommendation, or `- [ ] text` for pick-any choices, with `- [x] text` marking the recommended ones. There is no separate list of options. byre parses the choices out of `context` (`internal/agents/choices.go`; list items inside code fences and blockquotes don't count) and stores their text in the payload as `options`, with `multiple` (pick-any) and `recommended`. The UI renders the context as Markdown with a radio button or checkbox in place of each choice's marker. The tool's description tells agents to keep everything about one choice (what it does, its example, code, trade-offs) in lines indented beneath that choice rather than in text above the list; those lines render inside the option, and only the marker line's text is the option. A malformed call (no `context` or `why_blocked`, fewer than two choices, pick-one and pick-any choices mixed, a pick-one question without exactly one recommendation, two choices with the same text, an unknown attachment kind, a foreign `thread_id`) is rejected with a message saying what to fix, and nothing is filed. All questions are alike: the tool's description and its result tell the agent to end its turn after asking, and the answer arrives as its next message. The call returns the item's id as `question_id`. An agent withdraws a question it no longer needs answered (the human answered it in a chat message, say) with the `cancel_question` MCP tool and that id: an `open` question of its own session becomes `dismissed` with no `resolved_by` (its `inbox.updated` event has actor `agent`), which also stops it from holding back delivery; anything else is rejected with a message saying why. Each agent error (a turn that ends in error without a human interrupt, a process that dies mid-turn) also files an item.

The tool's description tells agents to keep everything about one choice (what it does, its example, code, trade-offs) in lines indented beneath that choice rather than in text above the list; those lines render inside the option, and only the marker line's text is the option. When every item of a choice list has exactly one non-blank indented line and that line is only a Markdown image, the list renders as a grid of tiles (`choice-grid`, set in `parseList` in `web/src/markdown.ts`): four across, or two across when the context is at most 480px wide (a container query on `.md.context`). The tool's description tells agents to write image choices this way. A malformed call (no `context` or `why_blocked`, fewer than two choices, pick-one and pick-any choices mixed, a pick-one question without exactly one recommendation, two choices with the same text, an unknown attachment kind, a foreign `thread_id`) is rejected with a message saying what to fix, and nothing is filed.

 `GET /api/inbox` is one query over open items, oldest first; `project_id` and `task_id` narrow it to a project or task view, and `state` picks another state. The Inbox tab is task-specific: it shows one of the selected task's open items at a time, the oldest, and the next one once that is answered or dismissed; it shows nothing when no task is selected. The tab is hidden while the task has no open items, unless it is selected. While the selected task has open items, the Inbox tab's button is highlighted in the warn colours (`.attention` in `web/style.css`) and carries their count. Answering or dismissing the task's last open item from the Inbox tab switches the pane to the Transcript tab. The other way round, a new question from the selected task arriving while the Transcript tab is shown switches the pane to the Inbox tab; questions already open when the page loaded don't.
