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.
