Ask

Use CCB ask when the user requests delegation or project memory assigns a concrete task to another mounted agent.

command ask "$TARGET" <<'EOF'
$MESSAGE
EOF

Use --chain only when the current inbound task cannot finish without that exact child result. Use --silence only for independent work whose successful result is not needed. After submitting, stop: do not poll with watch, pend, ping, or ask get. CCB routes an inbound task's terminal result through the existing lineage, so do not open another ask merely to report completion.

Never use --silence as an active-job correction. Use ccb followup only when the target advertises exact active-turn injection; otherwise cancel and resubmit the complete corrected task.
