The master merge brought the tool registry's per-scope restriction layer
(tools.restrict), which makes dsh-mode's prepend assemble filter a duplicate
enforcement shape: it re-implemented the registry's SDK-section rendering
(renderToolsSdk + the RUN_CODE_NAME exclusion) and hid the exit tool from
prompts only — dispatch stayed open and the execute-time re-check was the
real gate. The service now reconciles a per-agent deny restriction on
agent.ctx at agent/created and at every boundary flush, so wire schemas, the
Code Mode tools:sdk section, AND dispatch resolve exit_plan_mode through the
one registry view (a default-mode call answers UNKNOWN_TOOL, byte-identical
to a no-dsh-mode deployment). The execute-time folded-mode re-check stays as
defense in depth for a direct foreign mode/set append no boundary has
reconciled yet.
Two zero-consumer surfaces removed per the pre-release stance:
- AgentOptions.mode creation seeding (declaration merge + agent/created
listener); a caller selects through set() before the first turn, and the
deferred subagent inheritance returns together with its consumer.
- The dropped-definition boundary notice (droppedNoticed + narration):
custom mode definitions have no production consumer, so nothing can be
dropped; fold-to-default degradation is unchanged.
The stdio removal had left plan mode ACP-only while docs still claimed a
/mode command. dsh-mode now registers /mode on the plugin-owned command
registry through an optional ctx.inject(['commands']) child (type-only peer
edge on dsh-commands), so the TUI and the ACP slash-command surface both
gain it; examples/tui-agent composes dsh-mode. ACP/TUI expected outputs
refreshed keyless for the available_commands_update delta.
Docs updated in place (mode READMEs, the plan-mode Agent Note's realization
sections); catalogs and graphs regenerated.
context/message previously defaulted to a <context source="…">…</context>
wrapper. No model is trained on a <context> tag either, and message
framing does not belong on the session surface: the surface projects the
durable log, and a caller that wants a frame formats its own content —
which the one heavy producer (workspace-context) already does with its own
<system-reminder> frame, opting out via 'raw'. The tag only added
machinery — ContextEnvelope plus an envelope field threaded through
InjectOptions, HookContext, the context/message event, and the agent-loop
inject/additionalContexts plumbing.
context/message now projects its content verbatim as a user-role message,
sharing one deriveEventMessage case with user/message and steering/message.
ContextEnvelope and every envelope field are removed; context/message.meta
still carries durable, model-hidden JSON state. Regenerated catalogs and
website API; refreshed the three affected keyless snapshots (envelope field
only; timestamps unchanged).
Broadens and renames the steering Agent Note to cover both envelope
removals as one decision.

Review follow-up (tianyicui): plan mode and the sandbox are orthogonal
AXES, not just orthogonal state — entering plan must not change what the
sandbox enforces, matching Codex's separation of Plan/Default
collaboration presets from sandbox and approval settings.
ModeDefinition.access, the bash/resolve-mode clamp, and both cap-derived
guards are removed; a ModeDefinition is exactly { section }, and a mode
now carries only its guidance section plus the exit_plan_mode review.
The bash seam's resolveMode + waterfall go with their only listener:
dsh-bash and dsh-tool-bash revert to master byte-for-byte, and the
dsh-mode → dsh-bash dependency edge is gone. A deployment that wants
kernel-enforced read-only planning pairs the mode picker with the
independent sandbox-mode option, in either order.
The RFC archives this as the second removed enforcement shape (after
the interim allowlist) with the same restart trigger — effects
self-declaration; the orthogonality FAQ now answers with the two-axis
rule. The plan example demonstrates the axes side by side, and the
re-recorded fixtures pin the guidance-only section.
A subagent child's recursion depth lived only in runtime AgentOptions,
so a persisted child came back from resume counted as top-level and
maxDepth stopped binding after every restart. Add
SessionHeader.delegationDepth, round-trip it through the JSONL and
SQLite backends (SQLite schema v5), restore it on agent-loop resume,
and write it when the in-process backends create a child. The seam now
owns the shared depth vocabulary (delegationDepthOf): the persisted
header is authoritative and monotone — runtime options may deepen it
but never lower it.
Semantic resolutions beyond line merges:
- The bash seam keeps resolveMode + the bash/resolve-mode waterfall on
master's task-free BashExecutor (run/start/resolve only; BashProcess
handles); tool-bash consults it at its stamping site and escalation
baseline on master's render/background split, with a waterfall test on
the recording executor.
- dsh-mode's BASH_FAMILY narrows to ['bash']: bash_output/bash_kill are
replaced by the kind-generic task_output/task_kill, which span every
task kind and only observe or stop work, so the access cap withholds
only the starter it can reason about.
- The plan-mode snapshot suite adopts master's pin grammar (tool-schema
sidecars; the expectedHeaderSnapshots extension is gone — the exit
transition deltas, and entering-before-turn-1 needs no second
snapshot); modes-advertise joins the plan header class (no-model, so
membership is vacuous). Fixtures re-recorded on the acp-demo bin;
the replay overlay gains the passthrough sandbox runner.
- examples/plan-acp-agent rewires to @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-demo and drops
its tool-bash entry (the spine bundle now composes it); dsh-stdio (the
renamed stdio-chat home) keeps its /mode command and gains the dsh-mode
peer edge; the acp bridge keeps the modes surface beside master's
permission presets.
- mode README gains the Model Experience / Known Limitations sections the
new README gates require; AGENTS.md ceiling 1370 → 1440 for the kept
mode/ layout line and Agent efficiency section.
Extend SandboxMode enforcement from bash to the filesystem tools, the sandbox
RFC's deferred cross-family phase.
- dsh-sandbox-policy (new, ctx.sandboxPolicy): the single home for the
deployment default mode + workspaceRoot and the per-session override event,
renamed bash/sandbox-mode -> sandbox/mode and moved here with its fold/setter.
Decouples the bash seam from dsh-session.
- dsh-fs-sandbox (new): SandboxedFileSystem extends LocalFileSystem and fences
write/edit by the per-call mode (read-only denies, workspace-write contains to
the workspace + temp roots via the shared writableRoots, danger passes
through); reads pass through. Structured FS_SANDBOX_DENIED; in-lock parent
re-canonicalization. A policy fence in trusted code, not a kernel boundary.
- dsh-sandbox: the shared escalation kit (writableRoots, the strictly-wider
ladder, denial/hint markers, approveEscalation) both tool families use;
approveEscalation takes a structural approver so dsh-sandbox gains no
approval/agent dependency, and both tools stay duplication-free.
- tool-fs: write/edit advertise sandbox_permissions/justification under a
confining ctx.fs, map FS_SANDBOX_DENIED to the shared [sandbox: ...] marker,
and resolve the same one-approved-wider retry.
- examples/acp-agent: composes sandbox-policy + fs-sandbox, drops the gating
that disabled the fs stack under confined modes.
