The simplified inheritance path uses Session creation seeds for policy events, and the public CreateSessionOptions JSDoc now names that supported role. The type-equivalent persistence catalog still described seeds as replay/fork-only, so doc-sync correctly rejected the mismatch.
Align the explanatory paragraph and exact type-equivalent block in both languages, then re-record the bilingual pair. This keeps the public catalog from understating the constructor seam that makes the simplification possible.
The parent implementation introduced sandboxMode and approvalPolicy as generic SessionHeader fields, then propagated those fields through both persistence backends, session-query indexes, collision checks, policy-specific seed-boundary folds, catalogs, and a broad test matrix. That storage plane is unnecessary: Session already accepts a validated constructor seed, and persistence captures that seed when the session is announced before committing its first batch.
Capture each parent override synchronously at delegation, append source-tagged sandbox/mode and approval/policy records after the optional fork prefix, and create the child with that combined seed. Keeping header.seedLength at the original fork-prefix length preserves lineage while ordinary last-event-wins folds make the inherited records outrank stale parent history and remain subordinate to later child switches. Unswitched parents still stamp nothing, so children continue to follow deployment defaults.
Remove the generic header fields and every persistence/query/schema branch built around them. Collapse the inheritance suite from ten leaking scenarios to four owned-context cases covering real filesystem confinement, stale fork precedence, delegation-time capture, and the no-override path. The assembled headless snapshot now asserts the persisted inheritance event directly.
This keeps the security behavior while restoring policy ownership to the existing event log and deleting the speculative durability machinery that the original tests did not exercise.
Retarget the feature branch to the current master tip without rewriting its existing review history. Keeping this as a dedicated merge checkpoint makes the later simplification diff attributable to the stacked child rather than mixing base movement with design changes.
Resolve the identified-message API drift in the feature tests by constructing complete user messages, reading the nested tool-result message shape, and adapting the prompt-submit listener signature. Preserve both sides of the user-approval conflict: master’s createUserMessage wrapper and the feature’s inherited-policy attribution.
Regenerate the Cordis and persistence catalogs, re-record the session README pair, and refresh the affected ACP/headless fixtures so derived artifacts describe the merged source rather than either parent in isolation.
Validated with the focused policy/session/persistence/query suites (430 tests), focused ACP/headless snapshots (3 tests), build, doc-sync (25 gates), lint, hygiene, and git diff checks.
test:web ran build:web alone, which does not rebuild UI plugin client
bundles. Plugin CSS reaches the browser through packages/client/*/lib/
client.js, not apps/web/dist, so a changed *.module.css served its
previous bundle: the run exercised stale CSS and a removed declaration
still passed. That is how I first mistook a valid gutter test for a
vacuous one.
Root build already covers packages/*/*, so running it first is enough;
check-all already ordered build before build:web, so CI was never
exposed. Only the local script was, which is where a stale-bundle pass is
most likely to be believed.
Verified against the situation it fixes: mutate the source, rebuild the
bundle, restore the source, and the artifact is left without the
declaration while the source has it. Under the old script the run tested
that artifact; under the new one the artifact is rebuilt first (grep goes
0 to 1) and the scrollbar spec passes. The nine failing web files are the
pre-existing aria-golden set from f2c004524, unchanged by this.
The master merge left the generated catalogs/module graph stale, the
python runtime closure missing dsh-session-projection (now reached
through session-title and tool-todo), and apiproxy holding a dead
session-title dependency (the bespoke title frame is retired). The four
files the merge pushed under the per-file coverage floor (commands
executor + invariant, projection registry drive tails, TUI) join the
existing TODO(gui) deferral block per the GUI-lane policy; the remaining
coverage-run failures reproduce identically on pure origin/master
(environment-bound suites: sdk process exit, TUI PTY timing, workflow
worker timing, title loader slow-boot) and are not this branch's debt.
gen-cordis-catalog type-link rows for the ProjectionDefinition surface and
CommandExecution; a sessionProjections service-role row for gen-doc-graphs;
regenerated module graph, persistence/config/cordis catalogs and api-catalog;
packages/README rows condensed back under the word ceiling; the RFC's sketch
fences marked ignore-check on both language sides (pairing re-recorded).
