+   * Initiate a bidirectional pipe for exchanging a series of multiple API requests.
+   *
+   * @param string $negotiationFlags
+   *   List of pipe initialization flags. Some combination of the following:
+   *    - 'v': Report version in connection header.
+   *    - 'j': Report JSON-RPC flavors in connection header.
+   *    - 'l': Report on login support in connection header.
+   *    - 't': Trusted session. Logins do not require credentials. API calls may execute with or without permission-checks.
+   *    - 'u': Untrusted session. Logins require credentials. API calls may only execute with permission-checks.
+   *
+   *   The `Civi::pipe()` entry-point is designed to be amenable to shell orchestration (SSH/cv/drush/wp-cli/etc).
+   *   The negotiation flags are therefore condensed to individual characters.
+   *
+   *   It is possible to preserve compatibility while adding new default-flags. However, removing default-flags
+   *   is more likely to be a breaking-change.
+   *
+   *   When adding a new flag, consider whether mutable `option()`s may be more appropriate.
