Add a Connect participant
Add a participant to a thread — typically the courier at assignment time. Waiting lanes for their role activate automatically on join.
POST
Add a participant to an open thread. The standard use is adding the
courier at assignment — the customer_courier lane flips from waiting to active and the Supervisor briefs the courier with any context that matters (“leave at the gate, code 4411”).
A thread holds one active participant per role; adding a second courier returns 409 — remove the first for reassignment.
