A subroute on a client must match a subroute on the server. So routes cannot be used for dynamic routing, unlike HTTP.

Handlers should remain backwards compatible. If a breaking API change is required, a new handler ID should be created.

## Setup & Configuration

A **Manager** is used to manage all incoming and outgoing connections to a server.

On startup all remote servers must be specified.

Prometheus server is a single binary called `prometheus` (or `prometheus.exe` on Microsoft Windows). Run the binary and pass `--help` flag to see available options

```sh
./prometheus --help

// Step takes a string provided from a server (or just an empty string for the

// conversation forward.  It returns a string to be sent to the server or an
