Stops an agent’s VM. The agent’s workflow and state are preserved — the VM is deallocated but the agent remains in PHASE_SLEEPING. A sleeping agent wakes automatically when it receives a follow-up, or manually with murmur wake. Use murmur sleep to save compute costs on agents you want to keep alive but don’t need running right now.

​
