   the `swarm_*` tools, whose headers are constructed inside the plugin
   (`renderSwarmHeader`).
-- Exit guard: at `agent_end` with an unfinished hop, one followUp reminder
-  fires; a second quiet window auto-runs `swarm_quit` (failed ledger row).
 - Body protocol lives in `src/swarm.ts` (`parseSwarmHeader`,
   `renderSwarmHeader`, `readSwarmEnabled`); covered by `test/swarm.test.mjs`.
   Old `reply_to` headers parse as ordinary (non-swarm) messages.
