Overview
As HAPI expands its support for multiple AI models, this PR introduces a model-agnostic abstraction layer for agent communication. The goal is to improve code consistency and developer experience (DX) while keeping the existing communication schema intact for compatibility.
Key Changes
AGENT_MESSAGE_PAYLOAD_TYPE. This decouples the internal code from the specific wire format while keeping data packets identical to the current version.sendCodexMessagetosendAgentMessagewithin the CLI package to accurately reflect their role as a common interface for all supported agents.Rationale & Future Vision
This refactoring is a preparatory step for future protocol evolution. By centralizing the payload identifier, we create a Single Source of Truth (SSOT) that will simplify any eventual transition to a model-neutral identifier (e.g., a dedicated HAPI message schema) without scouring the entire codebase for hardcoded strings.
