Answering a question through the question tool while the plan agent was active always kept the session in plan mode, so users had to answer, switch agents manually and often got asked to confirm again. question.reply now accepts an optional agent. When the user picks one, the question tool appends a synthetic user message with that agent (the same hand-off used by plan_exit) so the session continues in the build agent. - tui: ctrl+b answers and continues in build (keybind question_build) - app: "Answer & continue in build agent" button in the question dock

What does this PR do?
Answering a question in plan mode kept the session in the plan agent, so you had to switch to build manually afterwards and the model often asked for confirmation again.
question.replynow accepts an optionalagent. When it is provided, the question tool hands the session over by appending a synthetic user message with that agent, the same mechanismplan_exitalready uses. Subagent sessions ignore it.ctrl+banswers and continues in build (question_buildkeybind). The dock shows actrl+b buildhint when the plan agent asked the question.How did you verify your code works?
bun test test/question/question.test.ts test/tool/question.test.ts test/session/prompt.test.ts- includes a session-level test where the plan agent asks a question, the reply carriesagent: "build", and the next turn runs in the build agent.ctrl+b build; pressing it closes the dock withYesrecorded and the composer switches toBuild, which finishes the turn.bun run typecheckfor the monorepo.Screenshots / recordings
No screenshot; this is the dock as rendered during the manual TUI run:
