feat: add message read receipts via return transactions #21

Description

@corvid-agent

Description

Currently there is no way to know if the agent has read a message. The `status` field supports `sending`, `sent`, `confirmed`, and `failed`, but `confirmed` only means the transaction landed on-chain — not that the agent processed it.

Suggested implementation

  • Define a lightweight "ack" envelope type in the PSK protocol
  • When the agent processes a message, it sends a minimal ack transaction back
  • The chat client updates message status to "read" when the ack is received
  • This could reuse the existing polling infrastructure

Considerations

  • Each ack costs a minimum transaction fee (0.001 ALGO)
  • Could be opt-in to avoid unnecessary costs
  • Requires coordination with the agent-side bridge implementation
