# Upload Agent File

`POST /api/agents/{agent_id}/files/upload`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.maritime.sh` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.maritime.sh/api/agents/{agent_id}/files/upload`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Push a file from the user into the agent's container.

Two modes:
  - Chat attachment (no `dest_dir`): writes into the framework inbox with
    a timestamp prefix and notifies the agent via /chat.
  - File-manager upload (`dest_dir` under /data): writes into that exact
    directory keeping the original name, no chat notice.

Returns the in-container path the file landed at.
