Raw conversation messages for a job.

Closes the last reproducibility gap in the v1 API: every other
artifact is exposed (transcript, replay, screenshots) but the actual
BetaMessageParam list — what the agent saw — was previously
JWT-only. Useful for 'feed this past run into a follow-up agent',
full-fidelity audit, and debugging across model versions.

Returns an empty list for jobs that never wrote a checkpoint (e.g.
NSR runs that don't persist conversation state). Tenant-scoped via
the parent Job's tenant\_id.

### Path parameters

<ParamField path="job_id" type="string (uuid)" required />

### Response

`JobMessagesResponse`

<ResponseField name="job_id" type="string" required />

<ResponseField name="messages" type="any[]" required>
  Raw conversation messages exactly as they sit in the agent's checkpoint — same shape as Anthropic's BetaMessageParam list. Empty list when no checkpoint exists yet (jobs that finished without persisting state, e.g. NSR runs).
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="pending_tool_call" type="object,null">
  If the job is paused on an approval, the tool call awaiting review. None for completed jobs.
</ResponseField>

<ResponseField name="captured_at" type="string,null">
  ISO 8601 of when the checkpoint was last written.
</ResponseField>
