                              Conversation behaviour for an agent target.
                              Defaults to none. Use create_new for an agent that
                              delegates with invoke_agent - a run with no
                              conversation cannot be paused for delegation.
                              Agent targets run headlessly by default;
                              create_new or existing creates or appends a
                              conversation message. Agent targets with
                              conversation mode create_new or existing also
