Start node now honored in agent-testing scenarios

The start_node_id field on an agent-testing scenario is now respected at runtime. Previously the value was stored on the scenario but ignored when the test ran, so every simulation started at the pathway’s default entry point.
  • Configure start_node_id (via the scenarios API or the Scenarios panel in the pathway editor) to begin the simulated conversation at any node in your pathway
  • Useful for validating a specific branch — like a post-authentication flow or a transfer handoff — without rewiring the pathway
  • Leave the field unset (or null) to keep the existing default-start behavior
If a stored scenario points to a start_node_id that no longer exists in the current pathway version, the run now fails with an Invalid start_node_id error instead of silently falling back to the default start node. Audit scenarios on long-lived pathways if you rely on legacy configurations.
