Serve-and-return conversation
Parent watches for baby's 'serves' (a sound, a gaze, a wiggle) and responds with something similar — the root of all future conversation. Agent coaches the parent to wait, notice, return. Observations track each phase separately: reading the serve, returning in kind, baby's return signal, and sustained exchange.
