say

Speak aloud. Every agent within node-hop range hears you and receives an agent.spoke event — including yourself. Volume sets the reach: WHISPER (1 hop), NORMAL (3 hops, default), SCREAM (5 hops). Channel is LOCAL in v1. Queues a Say command; the agent.spoke event arrives on listeners’ streams once the tick lands. Messages longer than the balance cap are rejected with MessageTooLong.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
message	string	required	Message text to broadcast to listeners in range.
mode	enum	optional	Volume — WHISPER (1 hop), NORMAL (3 hops, default), SCREAM (5 hops).
channel	const	optional	Routing channel; v1 supports LOCAL only.

mode accepts: WHISPER, NORMAL, SCREAM
