The profile rework left references to the old entry modes behind. Renames
the user patch-layer API and its spec file (watchPersonalPatches ->
watchUserPatches, personal-config.spec.ts -> user-patches.spec.ts) and
retargets the prose that still named `config.yaml`, `--config`, raw-config
mode, and surface overlays: repository-plugin and mcp-memory READMEs, the
credentials-local anchor into app-boot, vendor manifest items 12-13, the
vendored include/hmr comments, and install.sh.
Restores the boot-failure guard the rework dropped with raw mode: the
built-bin case now boots `--profile web --patch <invalid>` and asserts the
settled diagnostic and exit 1, so the HMR initial-scan deadlock stays
covered; its orphaned raw fixture is renamed and the unused one deleted.
The superseded personal-config Agent Note and its superseding profile note
are now cross-linked.
A profile manifest and a bundle manifest are different kinds and shared one
flat `dsh` section: `dsh.plugins` listed bundles (not plugins) and `dsh.patch`
declared a bundle's layer. Each kind now names its role — a bundle declares
`dsh.bundle.patch`, a profile declares `dsh.profile.bundles` — so a
package.json states which role it plays and the list name matches its contents.
`DEFAULT_PROFILE_PLUGINS` becomes `DEFAULT_PROFILE_BUNDLES`, and
`DshManifestSection` splits into `DshBundleManifest`/`DshProfileManifest`.
Pre-release: no compatibility shim; turtle-ui moved with it (bd5ff10).
- Relative path specs (., ../plugin, file:/link: forms) anchor to the
invoking directory before forwarding: pnpm's cwd is the profile dir, so a
bare 'add .' from a plugin checkout used to self-link the profile (exit 0,
nothing installed). Bare paths stay bare and prefixed specs keep their
prefix, preserving pnpm's link-vs-copy semantics.
- dsh.plugins reconciles against the INSTALLED state on every successful
pnpm run, not the dependency diff: an update whose new version gains
dsh.patch activates the layer; a version that drops it (or a removal)
deactivates it. Template bundles are never touched.
- A failed pnpm run now names the profile directory, and a git-spec failure
explains pnpm >=10's prepare-script block with a pointer at the profile's
pnpm-workspace.yaml allowBuilds (turtle-ui's prepare-based git install is
the reference consumer); reference README documents all three.
The old $DSH_HOME/config.yaml personal overlay returns under the profile
scheme's filename: machine-local preferences that apply to every profile,
loaded after the profile's own cordis.patch.yml (so the home layer outranks
it) and before --patch overlays and flag patches. Both user layers are
hot-reloaded on long-lived surfaces and shown in --dump-config with their
own provenance labels; the built-bin e2e covers the home layer landing live.
- composeProfile keeps layers as bundle/user/overlay+flags segments instead
of one flat list later re-sliced by index arithmetic; the row index drops
the group-walk (profile trees are flat patch compositions) and the double
composition.
- The config dump anchors on the profile's real empty root (written by the
shared prepareProfile) instead of materializing a temp file, so dump and
boot compose over the identical base by construction.
- dsh-base drops its patchPath export: the dsh.patch manifest field is the
one contract; the package carries no runtime API.
- packageDirFromAnchor is paths-probe only (the require.resolve fast path
duplicated the probe's outcome); basename() replaces hand-rolled path
splitting; verify-cordis-config stops re-reading bundle manifests in-loop.
- Clone patch lists per generation (boot + composeLive): the include pushes
insert rows by reference and mutates them in place, so a reused object
baked user overrides into bundle rows and removal could not revert; the
built-bin hot-reload e2e now asserts an override AND its removal reverting.
- The headless runner awaits Loader settlement before prompting (its inject
gate covers only apiProxy/httpServer) and abandons cleanly when the tree
died during the wait.
- healProfilesModuleFallback walks the app's full dependency+peer closure:
out-of-tree plugins import seam packages (dsh-compact, dsh-subprocess, ...)
that only implementations reach, and peers are how seams are declared.
- Profile init writes pnpm-workspace.yaml (nodeLinker: hoisted), not .npmrc
— pnpm >=10 reads settings from the workspace manifest.
- Web dumps reject boot-only flags instead of printing a tree that differs
from the same invocation's boot; --port validates at the flag;
--dump-default-config no longer parses the (possibly broken) user layer;
trustedHosts flag derivation merges over the composed value instead of
replacing it; web-runtime gains surfaceContext (headless disables the GUI
prompt/bash-vars the old -p never mounted); 'node_modules' is a reserved
profile name; plugin-warning names the recovery step; client AGENTS.md
registration surfaces point at the web-app bundle.
- Ship session-reference/tmux-context/tool-ask-user as app dependencies for
terminal front-door patch layers (turtle-ui), same stance as mcp-client.
A custom profile that mounts no telemetry-otel row exports nothing, so
DSH_TELEMETRY_DISABLED must not fail its boot (CI exports the switch
globally, which broke the lifecycle-fixture profile). The web-app dist
resolution test accepts the fail-loud unbuilt outcome the CI coverage lane
sees before any build, and the headless spec covers the idle-anchor and
pre-start skip branches under the per-file gate.
dsh --profile <name> replaces the fixed entry modes: --config and -p are
removed, --patch adds overlays over the composed profile, a positional task
selects one-shot mode (requires the headless-runner row), and dsh web stays as
the alias for --profile web carrying the Web flag family as patches. dsh
plugin --profile <name> forwards verbatim to pnpm in the profile directory,
initializes on first use, and reconciles the dsh.plugins layer list after
add/remove (patch-less packages warn and stay plain dependencies). Config
dumps and the keyless web e2e scaffold compose the same bundle layers over the
same empty root as the boot.
session-title already registers a title projection unit; /resume now
reads it instead of scanning logs: live rows from the registry
snapshot, persisted rows from the durable checkpoint row
(cachedSnapshot, zero I/O), and only rows without a usable checkpoint
pay a coldSnapshot — checkpoint plus readFrom tail, written back so the
next scan is metadata-only. Cold reads are bounded by the new
resumeScanConcurrency config; compositions without the cache fall back
to the bounded readTitleSnapshots batch. The TUI overlay mounts the
projection registry, storage, and projection-cache rows over the same
storages root the web surface uses, so checkpoints serve both.
Master's transactional loader made the invalid-provider PTY case regress:
the HMR main watcher's initial scan refreshed the include mid-initial-apply,
the concurrent group updates stranded the include fiber, and once serialized
the failing apply's rollback deadlocked on HMR's refresh drain — dsh exited
13 with no diagnostic and the terminal stranded, the exact symptom this
branch fixes. Serialize every include child-tree mutation through one queue
and pass ignoreInitial to the HMR main watcher; the failing boot now settles
through boot()'s labelled rejection with the tree disposed and exit 1. The
PTY case asserts the settled diagnostic; the fail-loud release remains the
guard for rejections boot cannot see.
Conflicts: apps/cli/src/tui.ts (keep the release install over master's comment
rewording), packages/ui/app-boot/README* (master's new installFailLoud row
wording plus this branch's release and timeout rows).
The opt-in `core-web.cordis.yml` profile promises "exactly persistent
`bash` plus `str_replace_editor`" (its header comment and `apps/cli/
README.md`), but the base registration of `tool-subagent-list-agents`
(added with the durable child catalog) was not disabled by the overlay,
so the profile actually exposed `bash`, `str_replace_editor`, and
`list_agents`. The assembled snapshot was updated to accept the third
tool, which ratified the contract break instead of fixing it.
Disable `tool-subagent-list-agents` in the overlay and restore the
snapshot's expected tool registry to the documented two tools.
