### Start a Managed Agent

Press `s` to open the start-agent pane. Use `Left`/`Right` or `h`/`l` to choose the agent type, `Tab` or `Down` to move between fields, `Up` to move back, `Enter` to advance or submit, and `Esc` to cancel.
Press `s` to open the start-agent pane. Fields are visited in order: **type**, **mode**, **cwd**, **name**, **task**, **args**, then **submit**/**cancel**:

- In the **type** field, move through the vertical list with `Up`/`Down` or `j`/`k`; types whose harness is unavailable are marked so you can pick a working one.
- In the **mode** field, use `Left`/`Right` or `h`/`l` to switch between `interactive` and `durable` (durable is limited to claude, codex, and pi).
- **cwd** accepts `~` expansion; press `Ctrl+R` in that field to cycle recently used project directories. **task** sets an initial prompt and **args** passes extra harness CLI arguments.
- `Tab` or `Down` moves to the next field; `Shift+Tab` or `Up` moves back. `Enter` advances through fields and submits from the name field; `Esc` cancels.
- While a start is pending, the pane shows elapsed time and lets you cancel. The pane remembers your last type and cwd.
