+### Monitoring a call
+
+A lead may listen to a member's call without being asked -- to coach, to check quality, to step in
+when it goes wrong. This is not lead assist: nobody requested it, the member's task says nothing
+about it, and there is no take-over in it. A lead who wants the call itself uses lead assist. The
+three modes are the call centre's own words:
+
+| Mode | Who hears the lead |
+| --- | --- |
+| `monitor` | Nobody. The lead hears both sides in silence. |
+| `whisper` | The agent alone. The customer hears nothing. |
+| `barge` | Everyone on the call. |
+
+The login says which modes this lead has, as a list on `team.monitorControl`, and it always
+includes `monitor`, because whisper and barge begin from one
+(`authentication.capability.team.monitorControl.monitor`). A centre that lets every lead listen but
+reserves barging declares `["monitor", "whisper"]`, and Omni offers no Barge to that lead. The
+declaration requires `executeTeamMonitor`, gated exactly as `executeTeamLeadAssist` is by
+`team.leadAssistControl`.
+
+```ts
+// 1. The lead picks a member from the roster and starts silent.
+executeTeamMonitor({ command: { type: "monitor", memberId: "A-1" } })
+
+// 2. The lead's own task arrives -- task-offered with `automatic`, as a joined call does -- and
+//    carries `monitoring`; the task id is the lead's, the member's call is named inside it.
+//    monitoring: { memberId: "A-1", taskId: "call-42", mode: "monitor", since }
+
+// 3. The lead changes how they are heard; the provider restates the task with the new mode.
+executeTeamMonitor({ command: { type: "whisper" } })
+executeTeamMonitor({ command: { type: "barge" } })
+
+// 4. The lead leaves; their task ends with `{ type: "left" }`. The member's call goes on.
+executeTeamMonitor({ command: { type: "leave" } })
+```
+
+**The lead's task is what gives them audio**: Omni opens media on it as on any voice task, and the
+provider bridges the lead's leg into the member's call in the mode stated. `monitoring.mode` is
+the state, restated on every change, and a `whisper` or `barge` the login's list does not include
+is answered `failed`. **A lead listens to one call at a time** (`snapshot.monitoring.single`), and
+a task is a joined call or a monitored one, never both (`task.monitoring.assisting`). A lead on a
+break does not listen, for the reason they do not join: a break is a state in which the agent is
+not working. The member's call ending ends the lead's task as it ends the member's, with `left`,
+since the lead was never handling it.
+
+**Nothing reaches the member.** The member's task carries no trace of a monitoring lead in any
+mode: not on `onCall`, not in the record. Whether a whisper is announced to the agent is the
+platform's business and travels on the audio, not on this wire.
+
+```ts
+const monitoringLead = {
+  channel: "voice",
+  capabilities: {},
+  phase: "in-progress",
+  monitoring: { memberId: "A-1", taskId: "call-42", mode: "whisper", since: "2026-08-21T09:04:00Z" },
+} satisfies Pick<Task<"voice">, "channel" | "capabilities" | "phase" | "monitoring">;
+```

 ### A member waiting for a break
 
 A member who has asked for a break **keeps working** until Omni commits it, so asking is not an
