- Auth: none declared

Partially update an agent, including status / enforcement transitions.

## Path parameters

- `agent_id` string, uuid, required

## Headers

## Request body

- AgentUpdate: Request model for a partial agent update. Only fields explicitly present in the request body are applied (``exclude_unset``), so ``null`` clears a metadata field while an absent key leaves it untouched.

  - `description` string, nullable
  - `framework` string, nullable
  - `environment` string, nullable
  - `version` string, nullable
  - `status` 'active' | 'suspended' | 'retired', nullable: Lifecycle kill switch (fail-closed for bound keys, P0-2)
