After calling `agent_session.shutdown(drain=True)` , how can I wait until the drain completes?

Thanks for reaching out, Masayuki. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.


You're asking how to wait until the drain completes after calling `agent_session.shutdown(drain=True)` — good question.

Call `await agent_session.aclose()` after `shutdown(...)`. `shutdown()` initiates a non-blocking graceful shutdown; `aclose()` is awaitable and will pause execution until the drain and close operations finish.
