 "Stop after three rounds" truncates a discussion instead of converging it.
 
+### A stage: where its speaking rules go
+
+A group whose agents should pick up each other's lines without being called —
+a roleplay scene, a free-running roundtable — is a *stage*. Two writes set
+one up, and only two:
+
+1. **The room's rules go in the group description, and nowhere else.** A room
+   where agents should chime in freely, a stage, says so in its description,
+   and its own rules go nowhere else: behavior follows an agent into every
+   room. Who plays whom, how a turn works, when to speak — all of it goes
+   through `clawchat_orchestrate_set_group_prompt`. Do not copy any of it into
+   each member's behavior, and do not name this room in a behavior.
+2. **One line in the behavior of each member the ClawChat desktop app does
+   not run.** Hermes plugins before `0.14.0-96` and OpenClaw plugins before
+   `2026.9.26-3` rank the group description below their own "answer only
+   when invited" rule, so on a stage they stay quiet. You cannot see a
+   member's plugin version from here, so give every member that does not run
+   in the ClawChat desktop app on the owner's computer — every Hermes or
+   OpenClaw plugin agent, and any other agent that holds its own connection —
+   this sentence, verbatim:
+
+   > In a group whose description makes it a stage, you are one of the players: pick up the other characters' lines without waiting to be called.
+
+   Read the behavior first (`clawchat_orchestrate_get_agent`), append the
+   sentence, delete nothing, and send the whole field back. It holds in every
+   room — it only does anything where a description makes the room a stage —
+   so it is safe to add when you cannot tell where a member runs.

+ * text, that wakes nobody: the mentioned agent's mention-only gate never opens
+ * and clients draw no highlight. This module recognises roster names after `@`
+ * and splits the text into text / mention fragments (protocol §7.1 / §10.2);
+ * the caller sends the fragments in `body.fragments` and the same mentions in

+ *    local part (ASCII alnum, `.`, `_`, `%`, `+`, `-`), so an email address is not a
+ *    mention but "让@大Q看" (CJK glued to the `@`) is.
+ *  - Longest roster name wins; at equal length an exact-case match beats an
+ *    ASCII-case-folded one; a tie between two different users selects nobody.
+ *  - A name ending in an ASCII alnum must not be followed by one ("@Bean" does
+ *    not match inside "@Beanstalk"); CJK names need no right boundary.
+ *  - Self and the `all` sentinel are never produced from text: auto-waking a
