<Badge color="blue">AI Agent</Badge>

How widely a Gateway session may be observed by other clients.

A session's visibility gates *whether* a second authorised client may
attach to watch (or co-drive) the same live turn stream, on top of the
orthogonal :class:`OperatorScope` authorisation. The vocabulary lives in
core so every client/impl agrees; enforcement happens in the wrapper.

Values:
PRIVATE:   Owner only. Today's behaviour and the default — a session
stays bound 1:1 to its owning client.
SHARED:    Members may co-drive; additional authorised clients may
attach with WRITE-capable roles.
READ\_ONLY: Additional clients may attach as viewers to observe the
transcript, but not send.
