Review finding: the exit tool's direct mode/set append flipped the
folded mode while the loop could still execute further tool calls from
the SAME assistant response — a same-batch exit_plan_mode + write pair
would sail past tools/pre-execute under 'default' even though the
request was assembled under the plan-shaped header. That broke the
design's own invariant (a step's executions run under the mode its
assembly folded), which the pending-intent flush was built to hold for
user flips.
The tool now records the switch as a pending intent like every other
writer, flushed at this step's end (still in-turn); pending intents
carry a narrate flag so the exit's flush stays silent — the tool result
is its narration — while user flips keep the coalesced boundary notice.
The gate, folding the logged mode only, now provably covers the whole
batch: regression test pins approve-then-write-in-the-same-batch as
denied, and the widened toolset still arrives on the next step.
The recorded scenarios are re-recorded: the fixture now shows mode/set
landing after step/end, before the widened fallback header.
Plan mode's stage 2 (RFC 2026-07-07-plan-mode). The exit tool: one
required plan argument (the durable log artifact), execute re-checks the
folded mode, then conducts the review over the user-interaction seam —
one single-select question (Approve / Keep planning) with free text open
— so an approval appends mode/set back to default in-turn and every
other outcome (keep-planning feedback verbatim, aborted, no provider)
returns the corrective isError with the mode unchanged. presentCall is a
generic card titled by the plan's first heading carrying the plan
markdown; over ACP the review rides the ask_user elicitation flow, in
the terminal the stdio prompt queue — no approval-seam dependency.
The ACP bridge maps the picker 1:1 onto ctx.modes (opportunistic, a
type-only peer edge): session/new + session/load advertise
availableModes/currentModeId, session/set_mode validates through set()
and echoes an optimistic current_mode_update (the pending mode IS the
selection; the logged mode/set lands at the boundary and, matching, is
not re-sent), and a session/event listener re-notifies on each logged
flip that differs from the last sent — the tool-driven exit updates the
picker. The feature matrix rows move from 'not modeled' to the
picker-to-modes / knobs-to-config-options division, with the ACP v2
removal direction recorded as a mechanical-migration risk.
The snapshot harness gains the setMode/setModeExpectError ops and a
scripted elicitationAnswers FIFO (cancel on exhaustion; a stray choice
string reaches the agent verbatim as a non-consenting custom answer, so
a scenario bug fails safe). The suite factory's header-pin requirement
now applies only to model-turn scenarios — a protocol-only suite has no
header content to anchor. examples/plan-acp-agent is the live
composition; its keyless modes-advertise scenario pins the wire surface
(advertisement, both set_mode round-trips, unknown-id rejection). The
recorded plan-mode approve/reject arc awaits a with-key recording
session; its texts are pinned at the unit tier meanwhile.
examples/AGENTS.md ceiling 653 → 680: the new example's required smoke
row does not fit the old budget.
Adopts #211 (Code Mode tools: run_code + the code/both-mode snapshot
scenarios). Tool-catalog expectations take the union (run_code +
task_*); the two new pinsHeader fixtures (code-mode-turn,
both-mode-turn) were recorded on master without the task runtime, so
they are re-pinned KEYLESSLY by replaying their recorded chunks against
the merged tree (same procedure as text-turn) — the fixture diff is
exactly the header delta: task tool schemas, the tool:tasks prompt
section, and the bash background wording.
Adopts #220 (tool-cordis + the gen-cordis-api gate: the runtime API
catalog regenerated with ctx.tasks/onCleanup on it) and #225 (shared
transcript renderer). Tool-catalog expectations take the union
(cordis_* + task_*); packages/README budget adopts master's 660
ceiling, which absorbs both new group rows.
start({ kind, label, owner, run }) preflights everything that can fail
(the attachSurface fence, validation, the owner-cleanup attach) BEFORE
invoking the producer's run() starter, then commits atomically —
'work started but never got a collectable id' is now structurally
impossible instead of a producer try/catch rollback obligation (the
P1 review fix, rebuilt on #185's declare/execute split). Producers
lose their catch-wraps; the leak tests now pin the stronger property
that a failed preflight never spawns anything. TaskRegistration splits
into TaskStart (identity + run) and TaskHooks (cancel/done/readOutput);
docs, type-equiv manifest, catalogs, and both RFCs move with it.
Adopts #185 (dsh-timeout: clampTimeout/deadline/timeoutOf drive bash
run() timeout classification; runBash loses its own timer) and #108
(ask_user_question) across the task-runtime rework: bash-local keeps
the BashProcess handle shape with master's deadline mechanics, tool
catalogs/expectations carry both the task_* and ask-user tools, and
generated docs are regenerated on the union.
One shared ctx.tasks registry (branded <kind>-N ids, owner-fenced
read/kill/wait/list, attachSurface misconfiguration fence, reported-flag
notice dedup, atomic register) + dsh-tool-tasks (task_output/task_list/
task_kill, completion-notice injection, background prompt habit).
Producers opt in via their own enableRunInBackground config: bash
(stream kind; seam slimmed to resolve/run/start returning a BashProcess
handle, bash_output/bash_kill deleted) and subagent (final-output kind;
done settles after run.dispose()). Owner disposal drains tasks through
the new awaited ctx.agents.onCleanup seam in the loop's disposal chain.
Both RFCs moved to implemented/; docs, catalogs, snapshots re-pinned.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-09-bash-backed-grep-glob-
discovery.md: model-facing glob/grep in a new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs-search
package, executing fixed ripgrep templates through ctx.bash.resolve/run —
not ctx.fs provider methods — so filesystem backends stay free of a search
contract and sandboxed/remote executors substitute cleanly. The tools never
call ctx.bash.start(); the tool layer owns quoting (one singleQuote safety
boundary), rg --json parsing, ItemRetainer/TextRetainer retention, and the
first tool-owned ctx.spillFiles.saveText() handoff (item-level retention the
generic post-execute spill policy cannot recover).
RFC amendments on the way to implemented/: a shared src/search-core.ts (the
SEARCH_* vocabulary + bash-run/raw-spill/spill plumbing was byte-identical
across both tools — the missed-extraction smell), and a snapshot-gap note:
wiring the acp-agent tree changes the assembled prompt, so goldens need a
keyed re-record; the spill notice text is pinned by unit tests instead and
only the coding-agent example ships the tools for now.
P1 review finding: extractMeta timed only the literal's vm evaluation;
materializing the RESULT then read properties ordinarily on the HOST
stack, so a meta literal smuggling a getter (get name() { while(true){} })
could wedge the host outside any timeout — defeating the exact spin
isolation the worker thread exists for.
Rather than harden the evaluator (descriptor walks, AST validation),
delete the mechanism: the workflow's identity now reaches the seam as a
plain JSON field (WorkflowStartRequest.meta), carried by the tool as a
schema-validated `meta` object parameter the model fills directly. The
engine only shape-validates data (validateMeta, every violation named)
and pre-parses the body; the scanner, the vm evaluation, and the
host-side materialization are gone, and with them the hole. A body
still opening with a Claude Code-style `export const meta` statement
gets a pointed SCRIPT_PARSE message (the likeliest authoring slip; a
CC script's body stays drop-in, only its meta header moves into the
parameter). syncTimeoutMs now governs exactly one thing: the initial
synchronous slice inside the worker.
The RFC's decision section is rewritten in place (implemented-RFC
rule); the embedded-meta format moves to alternatives-considered with
the hole as the reason. Tool description, presentation (title now reads
meta.name directly — the textual sniff is gone), seam vocabulary docs,
and catalogs follow.
Two review findings (#220) on the sandbox context façade:
- Undeclared services were reachable: the façade resolved any live global via
ctx.get(name), so ctx.bash worked without inject: ['bash']. A cross-mount
consumer could then depend on a provider cordis never saw — unmounting the
provider would neither park the consumer nor unwind its registered tools,
leaving a model-visible tool that fails only at execution. The façade now
reads ctx.fiber.inject and refuses any service the mount did not declare
(with a teaching error naming the inject fix), so the dependency is always
visible to cordis and its activation/unload semantics bind.
- ctx.tools.get returned the live ToolDefinition, including execute — mount
code could call another tool directly and bypass ToolRegistry.execute and
its pre/post-execute hooks and accounting. get now returns the same
read-only name/description/parameters view as schemas(), never an invocable.
Adds inject-gate and schema-view regression cases to sandbox-context.spec.ts
(undeclared property/get denied, declared allowed, the cross-mount zombie-tool
scenario refused at call time, get exposes no execute). Package stays at
per-file 100% coverage. RFC, mount description, and tool-catalog updated.
Review finding (#220): the guarded proxy only special-cased ctx.tools, so
mount code could reach an UNGUARDED context through ctx.root, ctx.extend(), or
a service instance's .ctx, then ctx.root.tools.register({…}) to bypass the
marker check and host-realm normalization — a raw vm-realm result would later
error a real agent turn at the session-log plainness check.
The sandbox ctx is now a whitelist façade, not a pass-through proxy: it exposes
only what a mount needs — tools.register (marker-guarded), on/once, provide, the
timer helpers, and injected services resolved through a guarded get — and denies
every framework-plumbing member (root, parent, fiber, reflect, registry, extend,
isolate, intercept, plugin, set, mixin, …) with a teaching error. Injected
services are wrapped so a method returning a Context is rejected on the way back
(the .ctx escape), closing the one indirect leak. There is no context-valued
member left to reach; cross-mount provide/inject is untouched (the plugin's own
inject and the fiber's pending/active gating are unchanged). ctx.plugin (child
plugins) and ctx.set are denied by design; ctx.effect is deferred (FIXME).
Adds tests/sandbox-context.spec.ts covering the escape class (root/extend/fiber/
plugin/set/… denied, the classic root.tools.register bypass, the .ctx escape,
read-only writes) plus the async-service and symbol/in-operator paths for 100%
coverage. RFC/README/tool-catalog/config-catalog updated; api-catalog.ts
regenerated (also picks up the codeRuntime service that entered on the master
merge and was left stale).
The tree SHAPE was the wrong surface for the model: what it needs from
cordis_inspect is what services, plugins, and capabilities are loaded, not the
fiber hierarchy. The plugins section is now a flat name + lifecycle-state list
from ctx.registry (deterministically sorted, one line per instance); the ASCII
tree renderer, the parent→child rebuild, and the dyn-id tree annotation are
deleted — dynamic mounts keep their own richer dynamic section (id, state,
provides, waits). Net -49 lines; RFC and READMEs state the flat-list contract.
Field sessions showed models writing tool schemas in the JSON-Schema dialect
by strong prior — type: 'integer', required: false, then the full
{ type:'object', properties, required: [...] } wrapper — and the rejection
text itself pushed a nearly-correct DSL attempt BACK to raw JSON Schema: one
stats tool cost three consecutive schema errors before mounting. The boundary
now normalizes wherever the input has exactly one meaning (wrapper unwrapped
with the required array becoming per-property flags at any nesting level,
integer → number, required: false → optional, all rebuilt as fresh host-realm
objects) and rejects only genuinely meaningless input, enumerating the valid
vocabulary in the error. Re-running the failing session mounts first-try.
The mount description documents both accepted forms.
The sandbox deliberately provides no Node API, and now says so instead of
letting a bare ReferenceError teach nothing: require, the timers, and fetch
are callable traps whose error redirects to the cordis alternative (inject:
['fs'] + ctx.fs, ['web'] + ctx.web, ['bash'] + ctx.bash, ['timer'] +
ctx.setTimeout — a fiber effect, unwound on unmount). Only function-shaped
globals are trapped; process/Buffer stay undefined so typeof feature probes
stay inert. The mount description and the demo persona state the routing rule,
and the demo mounts ctx.fs (local provider) and ctx.web (seam + keyless local
fetch provider) so agent-built plugins have real capabilities to build on.
Live-validated: a model that reached for Node setTimeout self-corrected to
inject: ['timer'] in one step and built a working ctx.web fetch tool.
New top-level packages/cordis/ group with the self-referential toolset:
cordis_inspect (services / plugin tree / tools / dynamic mounts / api / events,
the api section intersecting the generated catalog with the live service store),
cordis_mount (model-written code evaluated in a node:vm sandbox, mounted under
one cordis-dynamic group fiber as dyn-<n>), cordis_unmount (awaited disposal to
quiescence). Boundary mechanisms: dual-realm instanceof, JSON realm
normalization of dynamic tool results, marker-guarded registration, SchemaSpec
teaching errors, parse failures surfaced with the offending line + caret and a
line-scoped TypeScript hint, and the unmount-first recipe on tool-name
collisions. Config: vmTimeoutMs (schemastery, default 5000). Design record:
docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-08-self-referential-cordis-toolset.md.
The tool-catalog boot manifest, its regenerated output, and the pinned
tool-name list land here rather than with the other repo registration: the
completeness guard globs packages/*/tool-* and fails the generator (and the
core/tools spec) the moment the package directory exists.
The dsh-tools half of the Code Mode RFC (its fourth, final change): the
registry gains its first config — mode: native | code | both — and OWNS how
its tools reach the model. 'code' contributes exactly one wire tool,
run_code, plus a lazy tools:sdk prompt section declaring every other tool
as a generated TypeScript API (jsonSchemaToTs: total over the defineTool
subset, unknown degradation, lexicographic byte-identical rendering);
'both' ships both representations; 'native' is byte-for-byte the old
behavior. Non-native modes fail every assembly loudly without a
typescript-language ctx.codeRuntime.
run_code's dispatch bridge: JSON-normalizes each binding argument before
dispatch (what dispatches is what the tool/code-dispatch event logs — the
append can never fail on payload shape; BigInt/circulars reject that one
call), serializes all program tool calls through a per-run queue (even
Promise.all — no concurrency-safety metadata yet), routes every sub-call
through tools/pre-execute → tools/post-execute (a deny rejects the
program-side promise), drops sub-call additionalContext (no safe outlet
mid-run; pinned), owns a run-scoped abort that follows the outer signal in
and fires on settlement (in-flight sub-dispatch aborted, queued abandoned,
queue drained before returning), and converts a failed run into
CodeRunFailedError → a structured isError carrying kind + captured logs.
tool/code-dispatch joins SessionEventMap by declaration merging (log-only;
deriveMessages ignores it).
The composed surface: the tools config forwards through agent-core and
both app packages; examples/code-agent + demo:code run the worker runtime
under mode code (keyless boot smoke + a with-key e2e proving the collapsed
[run_code] header, the dispatch events, and the file the program wrote);
two new snapshot scenarios (code-mode-turn, both-mode-turn) record the SDK
section, collapsed header, dispatch events, and result card — each its own
header-pinning class (the harness gains per-scenario config overlays and
per-class pins). Catalogs, graphs, cookbook, hooks-bridge notes, and the
RFC (moved to implemented/, restructured to decision-era headings) updated
in the same change.
The Date.now()/Math.random()/argless-new-Date() bans existed solely to
keep scripts resume-compatible for the deferred journaling/resume
feature. Pre-support for an unimplemented feature is speculative cost:
scripts may now read the clock freely; implementing resume reintroduces
the bans as a script-contract tightening. The RFC's shipped-state
description is updated in place, the tool DESCRIPTION drops the
constraint sentence (the pinned text-turn header follows), and the
engine README's trust-premise paragraph now leans on absent globals
alone.
A directory holding exactly one file adds a path level for nothing;
cordis-catalog/ keeps its folder because it holds two sibling pages
(events.md + services.md), matching config-catalog.md which was born flat.
docs/tool-catalog/tools.md -> docs/tool-catalog.md and
docs/persistence-catalog/log-events.md -> docs/persistence-catalog.md; their
generators' OUT paths and in-page relative links drop one directory level,
and every citation repo-wide (docs, RFCs, package READMEs, generator
headers) is updated. graph-atlas.md, config-catalog.md, and the doc graphs
regenerate with the new paths.
