Drop the bare `dsh <config>` positional in favor of a `--config <path>` flag.
Without a root positional, `web` can be a real Commander subcommand in one
program instead of the reserved-first-token dispatch to a second parser, so
`dsh --help` lists every mode natively (no hand-pasted command text) and the
second parser + reserved-token machinery are gone.
Grammar:
dsh TUI (shipped tree + ~/.dsh overlay)
dsh --config <path> TUI, alternate tree (demos/tests only)
dsh --resume <id> TUI, resume a session
dsh -p "task" headless one-shot
dsh web [--host --port --dev]
`dsh` is the product front door with no positional; `--config` exists only so
demo:cordis, demo:code-mode, and the keyless PTY smokes can point the shipped
bin at an example tree. Those three sites and the /resume re-exec argv move to
`--config <path>`. The `-p` + `--config`/`--resume` mode-mixing guard and the
cordis.yml-owns-host/port-default fix are preserved.
Agent Note + Chinese pair, README, tui.ts docs updated. All 13 PTY smokes
(including code-mode via --config and the exec-replace resume handoff) green.
Remove the redundant dsh-tui-demo bin and the RESUME_SESSION_ID environment
variable, leaving dsh as the one terminal entrypoint.
The dsh-tui-demo package was a plugin (the TUI app bundle mounted by dsh's
config) plus a bin that booted a leaf cordis.yml — the same job `dsh [config]`
does. The bin, its ./bin export, its built-bin.e2e.ts, the tsdown bin entry,
and the now-unused dsh-app-boot dependency are removed; the package keeps its
plugin and invariant. demo:cordis, demo:code-mode, and the tui-agent and
cordis-agent keyless PTY smokes now launch through apps/cli/src/bin.ts with the
config as the positional argument. cli-demo/acp-demo/jsonrpc-demo keep their
bins (distinct surfaces).
RESUME_SESSION_ID was the only bridge from --resume into the shipped config;
--resume now provides the id on the boot context via ctx.provide(
RESUME_SESSION_ID_KEY, id), and the four configs read it as a bare identifier
through a quoted typeof-guarded !!js expression. The TUI resumeCommand fixtures
and docs move to `dsh --resume {session}`.
Agent Note and its Chinese pair updated; config-catalog regenerated.
Integrate the Commander argument adapter with master's safe session-resume
feature and dsh web --dev flag.
- args.ts: add --dev to the web parser.
- tui.ts: keep master's process.execve in-place resume handoff, but take the
adapter's parsed (config, resume); inject the resume id through boot's
prepare(ctx) hook via ctx.provide(RESUME_SESSION_ID_KEY, id) instead of the
RESUME_SESSION_ID env var; rebuild the re-exec argv as `dsh --resume <id>`.
- app-boot: drop master's replaceResumeArg (no longer needed) alongside the
already-removed parseResumeArg; add RESUME_SESSION_ID_KEY.
- the four tui-agent/cordis configs read the ctx-provided resumeSessionId via a
typeof-guarded !!js expression, so resume needs no env var.
- web.ts: keep master's client roster and --dev watch, take parsed host/port/dev.
The smoke's inline Python pty driver only ran on POSIX (no termios on
Windows). Rebuild every scenario — banner sweep, scripted conversation with
model switch, /skill:, Code Mode overlay, resume failure, and the dsh CLI
suite (default boot, personal overlay, invalid overlay, --resume flag,
source-path prompt) — as marker-gated action lists on pty-harness.ts, which
drives ConPTY via node-pty on Windows and the Python driver elsewhere. The
harness gains configArgs (bins with built-in default configs), prepare
(workspace seeding), and inspect (post-run log assertions); examples/
declares the session-title provider the shipped cordis.yml now mounts.
Master's log-backed session-title capability already titles sessions durably
(deterministic fallback in the spine, optional model providers). Remove the
TUI's own autoTitle generation — the latch, prompt, cap, and llm stream call —
and keep the terminal rename: the TUI folds the logged title on mount and sets
'<session title> — <configured title>' on every accepted session/title event.
The tui-agent example and the scripted PTY fixture mount
session-title-first-message-llm so titles stay model-made; the scripted
adapter's tool-less branch now answers that provider's auxiliary request.

Replace /mode [name] with same-named no-argument commands such as /plan. Update the TUI and ACP snapshots, and validate mode names against command syntax.
The built-bin fail-loud test needs the TTY refusal before Loader boot (a
compose-time throw is logged per-entry, not rethrown); the PTY driver drops
COLORTERM so a developer's truecolor shell cannot flip the banner to the
gradient path mid-assertion; the scripted fixture persists raw JSONL so the
smoke's system-prompt inspection can read the log.
Delete packages/ui/stdio and examples/repl-agent; rename stdio-demo to
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tui-demo (TUI-only, refuses pipes before Loader boot).
tui-agent owns the coding composition inline; echo-agent and the CI demo
smoke move to the one-shot cli-demo bin, which gains -p/--prompt. The
UI-independent with-key e2es move verbatim to tui-agent. SDK wizard's
'stdio' interface becomes 'tui'. PTY testing stays confined to TUI
surfaces; all other subprocess tests ride pipes.

Master unifies every live agent with its exact SessionId and moves declarative startup failures to agent-loop/config-start-failed. Keeping the branch’s AgentId label binding would let the TUI target the wrong lifecycle after reload and would miss asynchronous resume failures.
Resolve that contract migration by giving the selected terminal front door the same generated or resumed SessionId as agent-core, mounting the front door first, and entering fullscreen only after the matching root appears. Refresh the source-derived catalogs and keyless terminal goldens so Code Mode, workflow, Cordis-tool, and transient UI scenarios all exercise the merged identity model.
Model responses, replayed session data, tool presenter output, question metadata, configuration, and diagnostics all cross into ANSI-aware pi-tui renderers. Passing their C0 or C1 controls through unchanged lets an otherwise ordinary transcript emit OSC, CSI, cursor, or title operations in the user terminal.
Introduce one displayText boundary that preserves line-feed layout but renders every other C0/C1 control as visible \\xNN text before application styling is applied. Route transcript blocks, streaming output, tool cards, diffs, plans, dialogs, headers, cwd/title data, notices, errors, and pre-mount startup failures through that boundary while leaving pi-tui and the theme responsible for legitimate terminal control sequences.
Pin the contract at three levels: a settled headless-terminal golden spans the main untrusted display sources, unit coverage checks the pre-fullscreen failure path, and the real Loader/PTY conversation streams hostile OSC, cursor, and C1 probes and proves only their inert textual forms reach the terminal stream.
