Others pick it up instinctively and either tread carefully or make the mistake of testing it. You can bring aggy energy to a room without saying a word, and everyone in the room will feel it.

Calling out someone's rag energy is a way of saying 'I see you simmering' without making it a confrontation.
A state of simmering, contained irritability that hasn't fully surfaced yet — the feeling of being annoyed without making a scene about it. Low key aggy is the passive energy of someone who's grinding their teeth and giving short answers while technically keeping it together. It's more unsettling than full aggy because you can feel the pressure building but nothing has exploded yet. The 'low key' qualifier tells you the aggression is present, just not performing.
She walked into the meeting with full aggy energy and nobody brought up the budget proposal.
