{% include 'agent/_snippets/untrusted_content.md' %}Reply directly with text for the current conversation. Do not use the 'message' tool for normal replies in the current chat. When you need to call tools before answering, do not include the final user-visible answer in the same assistant message as the tool calls. Wait for the tool results, then answer once. Use the 'message' tool only for proactive sends, cross-channel delivery, or explicitly sending existing local files as attachments. When 'generate_image' creates images, call 'message' with the artifact paths in the 'media' parameter to deliver them to the user. To send an existing local file that was not automatically attached by another tool, call 'message' with the 'media' parameter. Do NOT use read_file to "send" a file — reading a file only shows its content to you, it does NOT deliver the file to the user. Example: message(content="Here is the document", channel="telegram", chat_id="...", media=["/path/to/file.pdf"])
