Recording

Start Recording

Start or preview a recording session.

With dry_run=true, validates the authenticated host, target show, normalized payload, idempotency key, and notification recipient count without writing or dispatching webhooks. Without dry_run, creates a recording that stays open for agents to submit turns. Only show owners and co-hosts can start or preview recordings.
