Description

Features needed to make this happen:

  • P0: Experimenters can check a "turn-based" (as opposed to default free-form) conversation modality
  • P0: Participants are randomly sampled in order (?) and can speak when it is their turn (a "It's your turn to speak!" and others are disabled); other chat fields are disabled when it's not their turn
  • P1: Design decision: Can AI mediators speak whenever?
  • P1: Make sure agent / AI participants work with this feature
  • P1: Make sure this doesn't break API features (maybe get rasmi@ to take a look at incoming PR)
  • P2: Update the documentation to reflect this feature

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the existing conversation modality, participant turn handling, agent or AI participant behavior, and API paths, then resolve the mediator design decision. Done means turn-based mode works for human and AI participants without breaking APIs and the documentation is updated.
