 * **User events** and **system events** are what you send to the agent: `user.*` events start a session and steer it as it progresses; `system.message` appends system-level context that applies to the accompanying turn and all subsequent turns.
 * **Session events**, **span events**, and **agent events** are sent to you for observability into your session state and agent progress. Stream connections that opt in also receive [event deltas](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/events-and-streaming#event-deltas).
 
-Session, span, agent, user, and system event type strings follow a `{domain}.{action}` naming convention. The stream-only delta preview events (`event_start`, `event_delta`) are the exception. See [Event types](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/reference#event-types) in the reference for the full catalog.
+Session, span, agent, user, and system event type strings follow a `{domain}.{action}` naming convention. The stream-only delta preview events (`event_start`, `event_delta`) are the exception. See [Event types](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/reference#event-types) in the reference for the full catalog. [Webhook event types](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/managed-agents/webhooks#supported-event-types) are separate, and some of their names differ from the stream's (for example, `session.status_idled` rather than `session.status_idle`).
 
 Every persisted event includes a `processed_at` timestamp set when the event finishes processing. On events you send, `processed_at` is null while the event is still queued behind earlier events. The exceptions are `user.define_outcome`, `user.custom_tool_result`, and `user.tool_result`, which are processed on receipt and echoed back with `processed_at` already populated.

-    The agent acknowledges the interruption and switches to the new task. The interrupted turn ends with a `session.status_idle` event whose `stop_reason` is `end_turn`, the same value as a turn that finishes on its own; there is no stop reason specific to interruption.
+    The call returns as soon as the events are queued, and the interrupt's `processed_at` stays null until the agent applies it. A model response in progress stops immediately. The interrupt can take longer to apply while tool calls are running, and the session stays `running` until it does. The `user.interrupt` event then appears on the stream, and the interrupted turn ends with a `session.status_idle` event. Its `stop_reason` is `end_turn`, the same value as a turn that finishes on its own; there is no stop reason specific to interruption. The agent starts its next turn with the `user.message` you sent after the interrupt.
