# Download Agent Response File

**GET** `/v1/agent/{id}/files/{file_id}/content`

Download the raw bytes of a file the response delivered with the `share_file` tool. The `file_id` comes from the file list endpoint and is distinct from the response `id`. The response streams raw bytes, not JSON, with a `Content-Type` matching the file and a `Content-Disposition: attachment` header carrying the original filename.
