## Details

Runtime adapter control for a smartphone agent.

Some agent features can be driven while the agent runs — started and stopped,
and their settings changed, without a restart. The ADB bridge (adapter name:
adb_bridge) is the first one. Settings apply either to the whole agent or, with
--resource, to a single phone.

Use 'get' to discover what an adapter exposes: each setting's type, its current
value, the accepted values, and whether it can be changed at all (some are
shown for diagnosis only).

Runtime changes are ephemeral: after an agent restart, the agent's own
configuration decides again.

--agent takes either of the agent's identifiers: its hostname or its UUID (the
HOSTNAME and UUID columns of 'ktm agents list', or the AGENT column of
'ktm adb status'). The --resource value is a phone serial — the same identifier
'ktm adb connect' takes. For the ADB bridge specifically,
'ktm adb enable|disable' are equivalent shortcuts.
