10+11+`/steer` sends guidance to an already-active run. It is for "adjust this
12+run while it is still working" moments, not for starting a new turn.
13+14+## Current session
15+16+Use top-level `/steer` to target the active run for the current session:
17+18+```text
19+/steer prefer the smaller patch and keep the tests focused
20+/tell summarize before making the next tool call
21+```
22+23+Behavior:
24+25+- Targets only the current session's active run.
26+- Works independently of the session's `/queue` mode.
27+- Does not start a new run when the session is idle.
28+- Replies with a warning when there is no active run to steer.
29+- Uses the active runtime's steering path, so the model sees the guidance at
30+ the next supported runtime boundary.
31+32+## Steer vs queue
33+34+`/queue steer` changes how normal inbound messages behave when they arrive
35+while a run is active. `/steer <message>` is an explicit command that tries to
36+inject that command's message into the active run at the next supported runtime
37+boundary, regardless of the stored `/queue` setting.
38+39+Use:
40+41+- `/steer <message>` when you want to guide the active run right now.
42+- `/queue steer` when you want future normal messages to steer active runs by
43+ default.
44+- `/queue collect` or `/queue followup` when new messages should wait for a
45+ later turn instead of steering the active run.
46+47+For queue modes and fallback behavior, see [Command queue](/concepts/queue) and
48+[Steering queue](/concepts/queue-steering).
49+50+## Sub-agents
51+52+Use `/subagents steer` when the target is a child run:
53+54+```text
55+/subagents steer 2 focus only on the API surface
56+```
57+58+Top-level `/steer` does not select a sub-agent by id or list index. It always
59+targets the current session's active run. See [Sub-agents](/tools/subagents) for
60+sub-agent ids, labels, and control commands.
61+62+## ACP sessions
63+64+Use `/acp steer` when the target is an ACP harness session:
65+66+```text
67+/acp steer --session agent:main:acp:codex tighten the repro
68+```
69+70+See [ACP agents](/tools/acp-agents) for ACP session selection and runtime
71+behavior.
