Methods

Method	Description
dispatch(ServerRequestInterface $parentRequest, string $module, string $action, array<string, mixed> $parameters = [], ?string $outputType = null): string	Dispatch a slot (sub-action) and return its response content.
dispatchSlotContent(ServerRequestInterface $parentRequest, string $module, string $action, array<string, mixed> $parameters = [], ?string $outputType = null): SlotContent	New API: dispatch and return SlotContent value object instead of raw string.
dispatchSlotContext(ServerRequestInterface $parentRequest, string $module, string $action, array<string, mixed> $parameters = [], ?string $outputType = null): SlotExecutionContext	Experimental: dispatch slot and return SlotExecutionContext (immutable) for richer metadata.
dispatchWithContext(ServerRequestInterface $parentRequest, string $module, string $action, array<string, mixed> $parameters = [], ?string $outputType = null): ActionExecutionContext	Experimental API: identical to dispatch() but returns ActionExecutionContext alongside content.
