POST /api/v1/cloud/sessions/{session_id}/cancel Requests cancellation of the current turn in a Session. Cancel on a running Session returns HTTP 202 Accepted and the Session transitions through canceling back to idle. Cancel on an idle Session is a safe no-op and returns HTTP 200 OK.

Example response

HTTP 200 OK (no-op) or HTTP 202 Accepted (cancellation applied) 
{
  "id": "sess_019ef30a4f0275678965d496ab542ef0",
  "type": "session",
  "status": "canceling"
}
The status field is "canceling" in both cases. After the turn aborts, the Session returns to idle.

Note: Calling cancel on an already-idle Session is a safe no-op and returns HTTP 200. The response always uses the same lightweight format regardless of whether cancellation was applied (202) or was a no-op (200).
