Reshape the agent's interception surface so every seam returns a small, typed
Decision union, and the set covers the hook points a CC/Codex bridge (and a
native plugin) needs. "Native hooks" are not a package — a native hook is just a
cordis plugin on these canonical events; the bridges (a later PR) only translate
an external protocol onto the same surface.
dsh-agent:
- NEW agent/session-start(agent, source) emit (once before turn 1; SessionStartSource
startup|resume|clear|compact) — a pure notification, seeds context via inject().
- NEW agent/prompt-submit waterfall → PromptDecision (allow, optionally rewriting the
prompt or attaching additionalContext, or block).
- RESHAPE agent/turn-continuation boolean → ContinuationDecision ({action:'stop'} |
{action:'continue', reason?}; a continue reason is recorded as next-step steering).
- New HookContext envelope (required source — inject() would mislabel a missing one).
dsh-tools: split the single tools/execute waterfall into tools/pre-execute
(PreToolDecision allow/deny/ask gate) and tools/post-execute (PostToolDecision
accept/block, optionally replacing content or attaching additionalContext). Core
dispatch sits between as plain code; the tool body keeps its inner try/catch so a
thrown tool still reaches post-execute as an isError. ToolExecutionResult gains
additionalContext (ferried to the loop's per-step buffer). Input rewrite is
deliberately NOT offered (a proposed RFC designs it consistently).
dsh-session: new `rejected` TurnEndReason — a turn whose whole prompt batch was
blocked by prompt-submit.
agent-loop firing points: session-start emitted at create (source threaded —
startup for create/fork, resume for resume()); prompt-submit per drained message
with the always-open-turn rule (a fully-blocked batch is a zero-step rejected
turn); the continuation reshape; post-tool additionalContext buffered and appended
after all tool/results (adjacency). ACP codec maps rejected→cancelled.
A worked native-plugin example (interception.spec.ts) proves all four seams compose
end-to-end through the real loop with NO hook/* events (those belong to the bridge
lib). All existing tools/execute + turn-continuation tests migrated. The
tool-subagent abort test now aborts after a microtask so it still exercises the
live onAbort bridge (execute() awaits pre-execute before the body runs).
RFCs: implemented/feature/2026-06-30-interception-seams.md (the reshape) +
proposed/feature/2026-06-30-pre-tool-input-rewrite.md (the deferred rewrite design).
Second-round Codex review of the PR-A taxonomy change found four issues, all
verified against the code:
- The /goal regression guard asserted only that the steered content reached
requests[1], which passes even with the hasSteering override (loop.ts) disabled:
leftover steering is re-enqueued as a next-turn queued message and also lands in
requests[1], one turn later. The guard now asserts the same-turn shape — ONE
turn, TWO steps, a steering/message recorded before step 2 — which is the
mechanism the override drives. Proven to fail red with the override disabled.
- The event-domain-semantics RFC's consequence list still described the pre-fix
behavior (step marked open AFTER step/start, so no step/end owed). It now states
the shipped behavior: the loop marks the step open BEFORE the append, so a
throwing step/start listener gets a balancing step/end via closeStep().
- architecture.md's loop pseudocode said only continuation listeners force
continuation; step/end session-event listeners (the /goal pattern) do too.
- The agent/turn-end JSDoc listed a `rejected` TurnEndReason that does not exist on
this branch (it belongs to the later interception work). Removed it and
regenerated the cordis catalog; `interrupted` (a real variant) stays.
Pin the three-domain rule (session = durable fact log, agent = live runtime
surface, tools = registry/exec): a durable replayable fact is a SessionEvent; a
live interception or transient/live-object signal is an agent/tools Cordis
event. A boundary that is both is mirrored as an agent/* emit ONLY where a live
consumer needs the Agent handle.
Apply it to the boundary twins: drop agent/step-start and agent/step-end (no
production consumer needs the live Agent at a step boundary — consumers read the
durable step/start/step/end session events). Keep agent/turn-start/turn-end (the
stdio UI labels output by agent.id). Tests that observed step boundaries via the
removed emits now observe the durable session events; the pinned behavior is
unchanged.
Conservative subset of the proposed "remove boundary mirror events"
simplification; foundation for the Hooks subsystem's canonical event surface.
The Events intro carried "The harness declares N events across M scopes."
and the Services intro "The N `ctx.<key>` services the harness provides."
Both embed counts the generator recomputes from source, so every branch
that adds an event or service rewrites that one line — a guaranteed merge
conflict against any sibling branch that also touched the catalog, for
prose that adds nothing a reader can't get by scanning the page.
Remove the count clauses from the generator's render() and regenerate the
catalog. The freshness gate (verify-cordis-catalog) stays green.
Honor cancellation and disposal around async pre-step setup before the loop can open a step or call the model.
Route compaction summarization through agent/request so router agents can select the model, and remove the stale model argument from agent/pre-step.
Document serial events and the approximate convergence bound, regenerate the Cordis catalog, and add regression coverage for router compaction, HMR cleanup, and assembly/pre-step interruption.
Two cohesion cleanups on the filesystem tool package:
- Fold window.ts + types.ts + formatReadOutput into one cordis-free
read-render.ts. Line windowing, the FileReadOutcome shape, and output
formatting are one concern (the read tool's rendering); splitting them across
three files added no value. read.ts is now just the tool (schema + I/O).
- Drop observe.ts and emit fs/observed with a plain ctx.emit in read/write/edit.
The event is contractually a synchronous, side-effect-only recorder
(file-context's listener is a WeakMap.set), so the per-call try/catch guarded
against a contract violation that cannot happen under the shipped listener —
defensive code for an impossible case. The event contract (dsh-fs JSDoc,
README, RFC) is updated to state the fire-and-forget semantics plainly.
Invert the tool↔policy control flow per the file-context event-gate RFC.
dsh-tool-fs becomes the executor — it reads/writes/edits through ctx.fs
directly, owns read windowing, and dispatches fs/write-expectation /
fs/edit-expectation (single-slot waterfalls) plus a contained fs/observed
emit. dsh-file-context drops its ctx.fileContext service and becomes a pure
event-gate plugin (observed-state + read-before-edit + version-guarded
write/edit, decided on those events). The provider's version guard becomes
optional so ctx.fs alone is a complete unconstrained text-storage seam:
removing the policy plugin gracefully loses the policy instead of breaking
the tool at a service-injection boundary.
Register the five web packages in the root tsconfig.json project graph
(master's typecheck moved to `tsc -b tsconfig.json` and dropped the
separate tsconfig.typecheck.json), and regenerate the module graph and
cordis catalog so they reflect the web packages on master.
Record the freshness token observed AFTER the read (re-stat post-read, falling
back to the routing stat if the file vanished) so the version returned/recorded
matches the bytes returned — a writer racing between the routing stat and the
read can no longer make a follow-up edit spuriously stale. Stream reads when the
backend reports no size, so a size-less backend never buffers a large file
whole. Update the cordis-catalog link map to the current filesystem API symbols
(FileContextExec/FileReadRequest/FileReadOutcome/FsInfo/FsWriteExpectation).
Implements the split-the-filesystem-seam RFC. ctx.fs shrinks to a text-storage
provider seam (resolve/stat/readText/streamText/writeText/editText with branded
FsTargetKey/FsVersion and an explicit FsWriteExpectation); the new
dsh-file-context package owns the model-facing policy (read windowing,
observed-state, write/edit freshness) as the concrete ctx.fileContext service.
Authorization is now freshness-based rather than full/partial view: a windowed
read records the file version and authorizes a later edit when the file is
unchanged, removing the dead-end where reading lines 100-150 of a large file
could not edit line 120. editText stays a provider primitive so version guard +
literal match + atomic rewrite remain one critical section, and the stale check
runs before matching so a stale edit reports FS_STALE_VERSION. tool-fs injects
fileContext, never reaching around to ctx.fs (the no-bypass contract).
Codex round 1 CBR-001: a head-anchored compaction checkpoint was
mis-classified by the log-position step-alignment scan, so a second
auto-compaction over a checkpoint-headed surface silently failed.
Root cause: `isStepAlignedStart/End` scanned the LOG by seq, but a
`replace` op lands a checkpoint at a high log seq whose SURFACE position
is the head — its log neighbours (the open step's assistant/message) are
not its surface neighbours, so the forward scan wrongly reported mid-step.
Fix, per the agreed direction:
- Replace the two log-position predicates with one surface-anchored
helper `isToolPairingBalanced(nodes, events, beforeSeq)` in
`dsh-session` (renamed step-boundary.ts → tool-pairing.ts). A cut is
balanced when no unanswered tool-call precedes it on the surface; a
region is collapsible iff both edges are balanced cuts. The open-tail
and free-node cases fall out of the same counter. It also throws on a
corrupt surface (a tool/result with no matching call).
- Move compaction off the in-step seam to a new "pre-step" seam fired
after turn/start and before step/start, so a compaction's log-only
compact/* records and its replacement node land cleanly OUTSIDE any
step (the honest structure crash-safety relies on). Renamed the event
agent/pre-request → agent/pre-step and switched its dispatch from
parallel → serial (listeners mutate the surface as a side effect;
serial isolates them so concurrent appends can't interleave). Extended
the catalog generator to accept @mode serial.
Regression coverage: a real-loop test driving an auto-compaction asserts
the landed checkpoint is a balanced cut on both sides; unit tests pin the
checkpoint case, the mid-step injection case, multi-call steps, and the
corrupt-surface guard. Proven red on the old log-position logic.
Reform the compaction blueprint so a runaway turn survives and the design
stops drifting across review rounds:
- Drop in-flight-turn protection ("layer 2"). Retention is a uniform tail→head
whole-unit walk; the only structural guard is step-alignment. A single turn
that alone exceeds the window now compacts its own early closed steps instead
of being retained verbatim (the failure mode that motivated this).
- Move auto-compaction off the agent/request waterfall onto a new awaited
agent/pre-request loop seam, fired before history derivation. Compaction
mutates the surface; the loop derives once from the result — no double-derive,
and a listener structurally cannot act on not-yet-derived messages.
- Tighten compactIfNeeded to required (session, system, model, signal).
- Enforce a single-pass convergence invariant in resolveConfig: reject configs
where summarizationMaxTokens + retainTokens exceeds the threshold, so a
compaction can never immediately re-trigger.
- Document the crash vs recoverable failure taxonomy; core session repair stays
compaction-agnostic (a log-only orphaned compact/start is inert).
- Wire dsh-compact-basic into examples/coding-agent and add a with-key
compaction e2e (compaction's first real-world exercise + runaway net).
- Rewrite the RFC to encode the blueprint and move it to implemented/.
The runaway-turn snapshot is a named deferred follow-up: dsh-llm-replay cannot
yet serve the interleaved summarization model call.
Collapses the per-round review churn of the prior compact-basic branch into a
single clean baseline on top of compact-interface, so the upcoming retention
refactor lands as fresh, well-scoped commits rather than stacking on a history
of fixes that are being superseded.
P1: both merge parents shipped SCHEMA_VERSION=3 for different layouts (surface
columns vs seed_length), so an on-disk 3 was ambiguous and wrongly accepted.
Bump to 4 (merged layout) so the version check rejects both sibling v3s.
P2: a surface-eligible event with no surfaceOp lands in the log but vanishes
from deriveMessages() (surface is the sole derivation path). The typed append
overload enforces the marker only when the type arg is a literal; it collapses
to optional when widened to the union (a caller iterating raw events). Guard at
runtime in both append() and the seed constructor — no backward-compat for
surface-less logs. Shared seed fixtures carry surfaceOp explicitly and the
appendLog helper forwards it verbatim (no synthesized default). Exports
isSurfaceEligibleType. Regression tests for all three, each verified to fail
on the unfixed code.
Gates: typecheck, test (1115), snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build, hygiene green.
Reconciles the session-surface work (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs provenance as
the sole derivation path) with master's worktree-subagent series (fork-seed
boundary + out-of-process subagent backends).
Semantic reconciliations beyond the textual auto-merge:
- SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION: both sides bumped 2->3. Merged to a single v3 carrying
BOTH column families — master's seed_length on `sessions` and surface's
source_event_seqs/surface_op on `events`. writeRow + both INSERT sites bind
the full set; the schema doc lists all three added columns as the v2->v3 gap.
- agent-loop runStep request: master's `sessionId: session.id` and surface's
per-append surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs coexist (different regions).
- Fork seed + surface: a fork seeds the child from the parent's LIVE events,
which now carry surfaceOp, so the child's surface rebuilds correctly. Verified
end-to-end — the subagent-fork replay recalls the inherited "SAFFRON" codeword
through the seeded prefix.
- Subagent snapshot fixtures (recorded pre-surface) re-enriched via KEYLESS
deterministic replay: only surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs added onto existing
recorded lines (matched by seq), no recorded value changed. Not re-recorded
against the live API.
Gates: typecheck, test (1112), test:snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build,
hygiene all green.
A fork subagent seeds its child session with a prefix of the parent's log, and
that seed becomes the child's persisted log — so a fork child's .jsonl begins
with the PARENT's events, including the parent's assistant/chunk events. The
snapshot replay harness derived a child's script from its whole log, which would
replay the parent's recorded responses as the child's model calls. Spawn-only
scenarios never hit it, but a fork snapshot would mis-route silently.
Record the seed boundary and skip the inherited prefix at replay:
- SessionHeader gains an optional `seedLength` (how many leading events were
inherited via a seed), threaded through CreateSessionOptions/CreateAgentOptions
meta and stamped by the fork backend (= seeded-prefix length; absent for spawn).
It is EXPLICIT, never inferred from seed.length: a resume seeds the whole stored
log, so the resume path passes the persisted boundary back.
- Both persistence backends round-trip it: JSONL header line, SQLite seed_length
column. The SQLite table change bumps SCHEMA_VERSION 2->3; per the pre-release
stance the backend rejects an older user_version on open with NO migration.
- llm-replay's parseSessionHeader reads seedLength and loadSessionScripts derives
a child script from events AFTER the boundary. seedLength is 0 for spawn, so
spawn replay is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Closes the routing-correctness gap the per-session snapshot replay RFC under-
stated; a recorded fork scenario remains a future addition but now derives
correctly. RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/testing/2026-06-22-fork-child-replay-seed-boundary.md.
Regression coverage: a fork child fixture whose seeded prefix carries a parent
chunk (derived script must exclude it, proven red without the slice); a seedLength
persistence round-trip through the shared coordinator contract (both backends);
the fork backend stamping it; resume preserving it from the persisted header.
Adds the @deepseek-ai/dsh-compact interface package: the abstract
CompactService (ctx.compact) with compactIfNeeded / compactRegion, the
compact/* session-event types via SessionEventMap declaration merging, and the
capability-seam RFC. Wires the package into the three root tsconfigs and the
cordis catalog. A backend implementation lands separately.
Reconcile the session-surface feature with master's package reorg and
simplifications:
- Adopt master's folded usage (assistant/message.usage; standalone `usage`
event dropped) and re-attach surface metadata (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs).
- Add surface opts to master's new max-tokens assistant/message append.
- Port surface columns onto the coordinator-refactored SQLite backend at its
new path; drop the dead v1->v2 migration (bump-and-reject, no migration per
pre-release policy).
- Move the session-surface RFC into implemented/architecture/ and refresh its
stale body (no migration, SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION=0, renamed package paths).
- Update the core-data-structures catalog SessionEvent blocks for the two new
surface fields; regenerate the cordis catalog.
- Re-harvest ACP snapshot fixtures (keyless replay) to carry surface metadata.
Two merge-blocking bugs in the shared in-process run driver, both rooted in
`readResult` scanning the whole child session and deriving the stop reason only
from `turn/end`:
- A pre-turn `cancel()` cleared the queued prompt before any `turn/end` was
logged, so the run settled `error` instead of `aborted`, violating the
`SubagentRun.cancel()` contract. The driver now tracks that a cancel was
requested and maps the no-turn case to `aborted`.
- A fork child whose own turn produced no `assistant/message` returned the
SEEDED parent's last message as a `completed` success. `readResult` now scopes
to the child's OWN events (after the seed prefix), so a message-less child
yields empty output.
Both fixes carry a regression test proven to go red on the pre-fix driver.
Also: correct the `SubagentRun.id` / event-payload docs (it is the child AGENT
id, not a session id — the backend mints distinct tokens); refresh the stale
`coding-agent` welcome string (subagent is now a tool); and replace the stale
`TODO(sub-agents)` "deferred" prose in the Agent interface, core.md, and
architecture.md with an accurate pointer to the realized seam.
The second PR of the subagent seam: the two in-process backends that run a
child agent on the same cordis context, reusing the agent factory's quiescent
AgentHandle teardown. Both register on ctx.subagents (PR1's named-provider
registry) and share one run driver.
- dsh-subagent-spawn: a FRESH child via ctx.agents.create — own session, the
parent's model by default (overridable), zero inherited conversation. Also
exports the shared in-process run driver (startInProcessRun): mint ids, stamp
cwd/parentSession-lineage/depth, drive the one-shot (send → whenIdle), read
the last assistant/message + turn/end reason, dispose to quiescence.
- dsh-subagent-fork: a child SEEDED with the parent's balanced completed-turn
prefix (the log up to and including its last turn/end), so the child inherits
context. The in-flight unbalanced turn is excluded — a raw seed would fail the
invariants replay. Proven: a regression test goes red if the boundary seeds
the open turn.
- Seam extension: CreateAgentOptions.seed, threaded through AgentLoop.createAgent
→ ctx.sessions.prepare({ seed }) (the primitive resume already used). This is
the fork-lineage path the TODO(sub-agents) markers anticipated.
- Depth: a merge-extensible AgentOptions.subagentDepth (0 top-level, parent+1 for
a child); the depthLimit capability refuses a spawn past request.maxDepth.
Tests: real-loop unit tests for both backends (mock MODEL only, real loop +
invariants), a multi-subagent test (one parent drives a fork AND a spawn child
then keeps working), and a with-key e2e (a real parent delegates via the
`subagent` tool to a real child that writes a file on disk — world-verified).
100% per-file coverage. The coding-agent demo wires the spawn backend + tool.
Snapshot coverage of nested agents is deferred to a stacked follow-up
(TODO(subagent-snapshots)): dsh-llm-replay is a single global positional cursor
that cannot route calls to a parent vs. a child on one context. Recorded in the
RFC's deferrals and a new AGENTS.md rule: designing a subsystem must design its
test infrastructure END TO END up front, verifying the snapshot/e2e harness can
express the new shape — a gap this plan hit.
Introduce the `packages/subagent/` group and the abstract subagent seam — an
agent delegating to a child agent — as a named-provider registry (`ctx.subagents`),
unlike the single-implementation bash seam, so multiple transports (in-process,
ACP, future A2A) coexist. This first PR lands the interface, a scripted test
backend, and the model-facing tool, validated through the real cordis load path.
- dsh-subagent: SubagentService registry + SubagentProvider/SubagentRun
vocabulary + subagent/start|end events. Start-time capabilities (outputSchema,
depthLimit, toolFilter) are checked pre-start and rejected loud; runtime
capabilities (sendMessage, resume) are optional methods on SubagentRun.
- dsh-subagent-mock (support): scripted provider for keyless, deterministic
tests through the real Loader/export path.
- dsh-tool-subagent: the model-facing `subagent` tool, config-bound to one
provider; synchronous collect with try/finally dispose, signal->cancel
bridging, and non-completed-stop-reason -> isError mapping.
- Proposed RFC documenting the seam, the fork-vs-spawn-as-separate-backends
decision, own-session isolation, synchronous-collect scope, and the deferral
of background/poll/spill to a future unification with bash.
- Wire the new group into tsconfigs, build refs, package hierarchy docs, the
module graph, and the cordis catalog.
RFC: docs/rfc/proposed/feature/2026-06-21-subagent-capability-seam.md
The whenIdle() JSDoc cited "a closing ACP connection" as a non-owner that
awaits whenIdle(). That is false against the code: ACP OWNS its agent handles
and tears them down via rec.dispose()/handle.dispose() (quiesce() at
packages/ui/acp/src/index.ts:666-686), never whenIdle(). The only whenIdle()
consumers are tests (acp dispose/turns/edges specs, agent specs) — which is
genuinely why the primitive stays (a test harness programs against the seam),
but the contract doc must not claim a production ACP path uses it.
Replace the parenthetical with truthful non-owning observers (a test awaiting a
turn to settle, a monitor) and state explicitly that an OWNER does not need
whenIdle() because AgentHandle.dispose() already awaits the loop-exit promise.
- packages/core/agent/src/types.ts: the Agent.whenIdle() contract JSDoc.
- docs/core-data-structures/core.md: the type-equiv mirror (re-copied verbatim).
- Regenerate the cordis catalog (whenIdle source line shifted).
Codex's confirmation pass found the teardown-framing error went deeper than the
three prose spots already fixed: the whenIdle() JSDoc itself (and its mirrors)
claimed "the quiescence signal a teardown awaits ... a lifecycle owner disposes
the agent through its AgentHandle which ... awaits THIS". The disposer does not
call whenIdle() — it does `stop(); await agent.done` directly
(packages/core/agent-loop/src/index.ts:271). whenIdle() is the NON-OWNER
observation hook; owner teardown awaits the loop-exit promise (done) through
AgentHandle.dispose(). Reframe every copy accordingly:
- packages/core/agent/src/types.ts: the Agent.whenIdle() contract JSDoc.
- packages/core/agent-loop/src/agent.ts: the impl JSDoc.
- packages/core/agent/README.md and docs/core-data-structures/core.md (the
type-equiv mirror of the types.ts JSDoc — re-copied verbatim).
- docs/rfc/proposed/feature/2026-06-14-acp-agent-client-protocol.md:40 and :70:
owner teardown via AgentHandle.dispose(); a non-owner observing quiescence
uses the interface-level agent.whenIdle(), not hand-rolled agent/status.
- Regenerate the cordis catalog (whenIdle source line moved).
The session event vocabulary carried two standalone trace-only events that
were not load-bearing as separate records. Fold their facts into nearby
load-bearing events and delete the standalone variants.
- Token usage now rides on `assistant/message` as an optional `usage` field —
the assembled model output and its accounting travel together. The loop folds
`assembler.usage` onto the append instead of emitting a separate `usage`
event.
- The max-tokens path is the no-data-loss host: a step cut off with usage but
EMPTY content (e.g. only a dropped tool call) previously emitted a standalone
`usage`; it now records an empty-content `assistant/message { content: [],
usage }`. `deriveMessages()` skips empty-content assistant messages, so the
usage host never injects a spurious content-less assistant turn into the
provider transcript. A step with neither content nor usage appends nothing.
- An operational error's step number now rides on `turn/end.reason` for
`kind: 'error'` (`{ kind: 'error', step, message, code? }`) — the durable
turn outcome ACP and resume already consume. `failTurn` sets the reason
directly (no separate session `error` event). `agent/error` + logging are
unchanged for live diagnostics.
- No format-version bump: pre-release, no persisted data, so per the format
policy there is nothing to migrate or reject (the RFC's "refresh the format
version" criterion over-reached). `version` stays 1.
- ACP fixtures + goldens re-recorded (keyless replay): dropped standalone
usage/error lines, usage folded onto assistant/message, error step on
turn/end.reason.
RFC moved proposed -> implemented with an implementation note recording the two
scope refinements.
Codex's no-ship was a completeness/docs-sync gap, not loop behavior:
- docs/architecture.md: drop the public abort() handle row; the teardown
signal is now cancel() then await whenIdle().
- cancel.spec.ts: the module doc and the turn-start comment contrasted
cancel() against a public abort() verb that no longer exists — reword to
name the loop's private step AbortController.
- packages/ui/acp/src/index.ts: the post-resume-leak comment cited abort();
cancel() is the surviving stop verb that likewise does not unregister.
- Move the RFC proposed -> implemented/simplification with amended text:
Status flips, the both-removal proposal is narrowed to abort-only, and an
implementation note records why whenIdle() is retained (load-bearing
quiescence primitive with live ACP consumers). Update docs/rfc/README.md.
- AGENTS.md "RFCs are proposals, not golden truth": add the concrete
abort/whenIdle worked example now that the implemented RFC exists to link.
- Regenerate the cordis catalog (line-number drift from the rebase).
The public Agent handle exposed abort() (step-only) and cancel() (queue-aware).
No production caller used abort() — ACP maps session/cancel to cancel(), and
lifecycle owners tear down via AgentHandle.dispose(); the loop's own stop paths
abort their per-step AbortController directly. So abort() is latent generality
that keeps a private loop mechanic public.
RFC-premise correction: the public-agent-stop-surface RFC proposed removing
whenIdle() too. Implementation found whenIdle() load-bearing — a real
quiescence primitive with a deliberate loop contract (settle-without-transition,
the replacement-turn race) and ACP test consumers; its proposed replacement
("observe the running->idle transition") is exactly the async-state race
AGENTS.md warns against. So only abort() is removed; whenIdle() stays. The RFC
is amended on the way to implemented/ to record the narrowed scope, and the new
AGENTS.md "RFCs are proposals, not golden truth" principle (PR1) gets its
worked example.
- Remove Agent.abort() from the interface + the ReactLoopAgent impl; the no-arg
'aborted' default goes with it (cancel() keeps its 'cancelled' default).
- Migrate tests: empty-queue abort() -> cancel(reason); the two review-fixes
tests whose subject is the in-flight step's AbortController drive that
controller directly via the private currentAbort field (cancel() would clear
the inbox and destroy the queued steering one of them proves survives a step
abort). The no-arg-default test is dropped (cancel()'s default is already
covered in cancel.spec.ts).
- Resulting public stop surface: cancel() + whenIdle(). Update agent/agent-loop
READMEs, architecture.md, core.md type-equiv, the extension cookbook, the
lifecycle RFC (short note), and the proposed ACP RFC.

Type-only change (brands are zero-cost casts; no runtime/wire impact). Closes
the two gaps in the "brand ids that cross package boundaries" policy and fixes
the dependency direction so a capability package never pulls in an unrelated one.
- Extract the `Branded<B>` primitive into a new standalone type-only package
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-brand` (packages/util/brand) with no harness-package deps.
dsh-llm keeps its owned CallId but imports Branded from dsh-brand; dsh-session,
dsh-agent, and dsh-bash all import Branded from there. dsh-bash depends on
dsh-brand ALONE — never on dsh-llm or dsh-session (the architectural fix: a
generic execution backend must not couple to the LLM or session vocabulary).
- Mint BashTaskId + OwnerToken in dsh-bash and thread them through BashTask.id,
the get/ownerOf/list/readOutput/kill seam, the bash-local generation site, and
the dsh-tool-bash validate/access surface. OwnerToken is a DISTINCT brand from
SessionId so the seam stays decoupled; dsh-tool-bash is the single boundary
that casts SessionId -> OwnerToken.
- Brand at the SOURCE, not via mid-pipeline casts: agent-loop's Config types
agents[].id as AgentId and resumeSessionId as SessionId, so the brand enters
at the config boundary and the inner create()/resume casts disappear (only the
genuinely-new per-run session-id string is cast).
- Stop brand erosion: propagate CallId/SessionId/AgentId to the registry/store
Map keys and public params/exports (SessionStore, AgentRegistry + factory
options, the ACP session-id surface + ToolPresenter CallId map, the
persistence coordinator, invariants pendingCalls, the pi-ai tool-call maps).
- Docs: document BashTaskId/OwnerToken in bash.md (type-equiv re-pasted), point
the Branded type-equiv at dsh-brand, fix stale param types in the session/
agent/bash READMEs, regenerate the cordis catalog + module graph.
Implements docs/rfc/proposed/architecture/2026-06-20-branded-ids.md
The original prune removed BashExecutor.get()/.list() too, but each is a
one-line accessor over the executor's already-tracked tasks map, and removing
them forced dsh-tool-bash's tests onto a ~35-line onTaskDone completion-tracking
harness just to replace the one-line ctx.bash.get(id) lookup. Per the AGENTS.md
"RFCs are proposals, not golden truth" principle, that disproportionate
migration cost is evidence the methods earn their keep — a test harness IS a
consumer programming against the seam.
Restore get()/list() (seam + LocalBashExecutor impl + the bash tests that used
them, dropping the doneFor/trackCompletions scaffolding). The persistence
has()/delete()/deleteStored removal stands — it had only contract-test callers
and no test-ergonomics cost. The RFC is retitled persistence-only with an
implementation note recording the bash revert.
Two capability seams carried abstract methods no production consumer calls.
A method no consumer programs against is not a seam — it is speculative
surface every implementation must still provide and test.
- SessionPersistence: remove has() and delete(), the coordinator's
has/delete/deleteCore, and the PersistenceBackend.deleteStored hook (with its
jsonl + sqlite + in-spec memory-stub impls). Surviving service surface:
create/append/load/list. Production uses only load() (resume) and list()
(ACP session/list).
- BashExecutor: remove get(id) and list(), the abstract decls and the
LocalBashExecutor impls. The internal tasks map survives (it backs
ownerOf/readOutput/kill); get/list were pure public accessors over it with no
shipping caller and no bash_list tool.
- Migrate tests that reached through ctx.bash.get(id) to the public completion
seam: a doneFor(id) helper over onTaskDone awaits a task by id, and the
HMR-reload ownership test now proves task survival through A's own bash_output
([status: running]) plus ownerOf + B-rejection — a stronger through-the-tool
assertion than the removed lookup peek.
- Update seam READMEs (six -> four service methods, drop the deleteStored hook
and the get/list row) and the two implemented persistence RFCs in place.

Codex review of the PR1 diff surfaced docs/cleanup drift:
- LlmService class JSDoc still advertised "streaming / non-streaming call
surfaces, both interceptable via waterfall events" — corrected to the single
streaming surface; regenerated the cordis catalog so its mirror updates.
- Removed GenerateResult from gen-cordis-catalog.ts LINK_MAP (the type is gone).
- The adapter-change RFC's acceptance criterion named the retired
verify-event-taxonomy gate; updated to verify-cordis-catalog.
- Dropped the now-tautological "streaming and one-shot assembly agree" property
test (the streaming/one-shot distinction lived in the removed flush API;
usage/finish remain covered by assembler.spec.ts and the finish property).
The LLM service exposed three call surfaces (stream/streamBlocks/generate) but
the only production consumer — the agent loop — uses stream() exclusively,
feeding raw chunks through its own BlockAssembler for replay fidelity. Drop the
speculative convenience surfaces and the registry-change event that no listener
consumed, leaving stream() as the single model-call contract for both
production and tests.
- Remove LlmService.streamBlocks() and generate(), the llm/generate waterfall,
and GenerateResult.
- Remove the llm/adapter-change event (declaration + emits) and the
listener-throw rollback ordering that existed only to protect it; keep the
HMR rollback disposer.
- Remove BlockAssembler.flushReady()/flushRemaining()/result() and the flushed
cursor — the streaming-flush slice existed only for streamBlocks().
- Adapter tests drive a stream()+BlockAssembler helper (tests/assemble.ts)
instead of generate(), exercising the same path production uses.
- Land the AGENTS.md "RFCs are proposals, not golden truth" principle and move
both RFCs proposed -> implemented.

Move the 18 flat packages/<name> packages into role-grouped dirs:
core/, llm/, bash/, session-persistence/, ui/, support/. Group dirs are
pure containers; each package keeps its @deepseek-ai/dsh-* name.
Collapse the per-package tsconfig paths maps (base + typecheck) into one
@deepseek-ai/dsh-* wildcard with a candidate per group, and derive the
publint list from the hierarchy. Update all depth-coupled globs/configs
(workspace, tsdown, vitest, eslint, knip, tsconfig includes/refs,
per-package tsconfigs, generators, doc-script scopes, type-equiv manifest)
and the cross-package/script relative imports in tests.
Fix doc-typecheck's workspacePaths() to parse tsconfig JSONC via the
TypeScript API instead of a regex comment-strip, which corrupted the
new wildcard `/*/` path candidates.
WIP: doc cross-links and package/RFC docs still to update.
- Exclude protected methods from the generated service interface: a protected
member (e.g. BashExecutor.notifyTaskDone) is a subclass hook, not part of the
public ctx.<key> surface a plugin author calls. The method filter now drops
private, protected, and static.
- Add BashTaskRead to the type cross-link map so readOutput()'s return type
links to its core-data-structures page.
- Reword the generator module comment and the AGENTS.md @mode rule to state the
current capability without narrating the retired event-taxonomy verifier
(that history lives in the RFC).
Add scripts/gen-cordis-catalog.ts: a fully-generated docs/cordis-catalog/
events-and-services.md cataloging every cordis event (exact signature + @mode)
and ctx.<key> service (exact interface), modeled on gen-module-graph's
--write/--check freshness gate. The harness tier renders in full from the
interface Events / interface Context declarations and their JSDoc; the inherited
cordis-core/loader/hmr/timer surface renders tersely from a curated table.
The generator hard-errors on a missing @mode tag and on a tag that contradicts
a conclusive signature shape (a trailing next param is structurally a
waterfall). Signature blocks use a ts cordis-catalog fence that doc-typecheck
skips. Type tokens cross-link to the core-data-structures catalog.
This supersedes the hand-maintained event-taxonomy table: verify-event-taxonomy
is deleted and verify-cordis-catalog joins doc-sync. architecture.md keeps the
Event taxonomy heading (TOC anchor) but points at the catalog; the Service-map
role table stays. RFC, AGENTS.md @mode authoring rule, and dependent doc/skill
references updated. Negative gate tests cover the missing-tag and
tag/shape-contradiction paths.
