Master removed the TUI package, the `meta` and `upgrade` subcommands, and
`--config-replace`, and made raw `dsh` require a `--config` overlay. Resolved
onto that shape:
- Dropped this branch's TUI edits with the surface itself, including
`tui.cordis.yml`, `runTui`, and the TUI keyless PTY smoke.
- Dropped the `--config-replace` plumbing rather than reintroducing a flag
master deliberately removed. The gap this branch fixed remains: `dsh -p`
still could not name its composition, so it keeps `--config`.
- Kept this branch's deletion of the personal `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml` layer,
which master still carried, and provided the environment snapshot in the new
raw `runConfig` surface alongside web and headless.
- Ported the headless shutdown PTY test off the personal overlay onto a named
`--config` file, which is what proves that flag now exists on `-p`.
$DSH_HOME/.env had just become an ordinary environment layer, which left the
harness resolving user-facing values from a flattened process.env that could
no longer say where a value came from. A key stored through the web page
stayed shadowed by an older key in the user's own .env. An endpoint could be
redirected by the project: the invoking directory's .env is materialized like
every other layer, and a base URL decides where a resolved API key is sent, so
a DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL written into a model-editable workspace would send the
user's credential — and the prompts carrying their code — to whatever host
that file named.
Give every user-facing value one ordering, with four kinds of source:
explicit for this run per-operation override, CLI argument
> authored by deployment --config / --config-replace
> this launch's shell inherited process environment
> product-managed store settings.yaml, .credentials.yaml
> discovered file $DSH_HOME/.env
> defaults schema default, shipped base, public default
The domains differ only in which tiers exist. The earlier split — credentials
ranking the environment over the managed file while settings ranked over the
environment — was inconsistent: the distinguishing fact is who authored the
source, not the domain.
packages/util/environment owns an immutable snapshot with per-layer
provenance. getFrom(name, sources) searches only the layers a caller names,
and omitting one is a refusal rather than a demotion: the adapters ask for
['process', 'user-env'], so no reordering can let a project file back into a
decision it was excluded from.
isBootstrapOnly rejects, before anything is materialized, any .env setting a
variable that governs how a process launches (PATH, SHELL, NODE_OPTIONS,
LD_PRELOAD), where code or model-visible instructions load from (the whole
DSH_* namespace, HOME, XDG_*), or how the network is reached (proxy and CA
variables). The namespace is denied wholesale so a switch added later cannot
become settable by being forgotten, and there is no opt-out.
verify-config-source-ownership keeps both rules: no unregistered process.env
read under packages/*/*/src (26 allowlisted with reasons), and no apiKey,
baseURL, or headers inlined from the environment in shipped Cordis config —
removing those inlines is what makes the deployment tier meaningful.
$DSH_HOME/config.yaml was an implicit composition layer: if the file existed,
every launch applied an arbitrary Loader patch graph over the shipped tree,
kept live by a dedicated HMR watcher. Three costs came from the implicitness,
not the capability. A patch replaces its target row's whole config, so a file
written months ago pins that row to the field set it knew and every default
the shipped tree later adds silently stops applying. It competed with the
typed settings namespaces llm-deepseek and llm-pi-ai already register, so
which one wins was a function of layer order rather than meaning. And the
explicit escape hatch it was supposedly redundant with did not exist on every
surface: dsh -p, dsh meta, and dsh upgrade all rejected --config, so for them
the implicit file was the only composition route at all.
Complete the explicit layer first: --config and --config-replace now work on
every booting surface. A headless --config-replace tree must still mount a
webserver row, because that surface reaches its own agent over the same HTTP
gateway the browser uses; AppCLIEntry names that contract in the failure
instead of reporting a bare missing service.
Then delete the implicit one. PERSONAL_CONFIG_FILENAME, loadPersonalPatches,
watchPersonalPatches, and the config-only HMR row mounted for it are gone; a
file left at that path is inert, and --dump-config no longer reads the Harness
home. --config therefore stops *replacing* the personal overlay and simply
*is* the user overlay.
No migration: a user who wants the old behavior names the same file
(dsh --config ~/.dsh/config.yaml), which a shell alias makes permanent.
$DSH_HOME/.env carried two incompatible jobs. As credentials-local's writable
secret store it could not be hoisted into process.env — hoisting makes every
stored key read as a read-only launch override and blocks rotation from the
TUI and the web page. But its name and dotenv format promise an environment
file, so a DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL sitting beside a working DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the
same file was silently ignored: only the credential provider read the
document, and it addresses credential references alone.
Split the two jobs into two files.
.credentials.yaml is the provider-managed store: a strict YAML mapping of
CredentialRef to non-empty string, no version field, no wrapper level. Because
it holds credentials and nothing else, a non-mapping root, a non-identifier
key, a non-string value, an empty string, a duplicate key, and malformed YAML
are all rejections rather than skipped entries — loud at boot and at a write,
warn-and-keep-last-good on a live reload. The dotenv physical-line editor
gives way to a patch of the parsed document, so comments and untouched entries
keep their formatting and any string value round-trips, multi-line included.
Writer lock, read-modify-write, atomic 0600 write under a 0700 directory,
watcher, self-write suppression, and quiescent disposal are unchanged.
$DSH_HOME/.env becomes the user's ordinary environment layer. app-boot's new
loadLayeredEnv loads the invoking directory's .env then the Harness home's,
giving user < project < inherited; the home resolves from the inherited
environment first, so a project .env cannot redirect it.
Credential precedence is unchanged: the live environment still wins read-only
over the file, and shadowed writes still reject. Whether a provider-managed
store should instead win over the environment is a separate decision.
No migration: a key already in $DSH_HOME/.env keeps resolving through the new
environment layer, as a read-only env source that shadows the stored one.
Master's transactional loader made the invalid-provider PTY case regress:
the HMR main watcher's initial scan refreshed the include mid-initial-apply,
the concurrent group updates stranded the include fiber, and once serialized
the failing apply's rollback deadlocked on HMR's refresh drain — dsh exited
13 with no diagnostic and the terminal stranded, the exact symptom this
branch fixes. Serialize every include child-tree mutation through one queue
and pass ignoreInitial to the HMR main watcher; the failing boot now settles
through boot()'s labelled rejection with the tree disposed and exit 1. The
PTY case asserts the settled diagnostic; the fail-loud release remains the
guard for rejections boot cannot see.
Conflicts: apps/cli/src/tui.ts (keep the release install over master's comment
rewording), packages/ui/app-boot/README* (master's new installFailLoud row
wording plus this branch's release and timeout rows).
The shipped-roster change made @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-session-query a
default row of the shared base.cordis.yml, so the TUI and Web surfaces
put the five session-search tools in front of the model. That
contradicts the recorded opt-in stance for the model-facing session
query consumer; the ACP example remains the mounted reference.
Remove the row from the shared base, the now-dangling disabled patch in
the opt-in core-web profile, and the workspace dependency. The
ctx.sessionQuery index stays: the TUI's /resume and the Web content
search consume it directly. Both shipped-composition tests now pin the
20-tool catalog.
ds-review-bot round 1 on the DSH-home integration:
- generated wrappers now inject the services their manifest needs (skills/
tools beside loader), and loadPreparedRepository rejects a wrapper fiber
that settles anything but ACTIVE — a composition missing a required
service fails the repository transaction instead of committing an ACTIVE
row over a silently PENDING child (critical finding)
- the github: source ref segment excludes '#', so 'a#b' refs fail at the
config parser with the promised syntax instead of inside pnpm
- watchPersonalPatches re-reads the include's non-patch options per refresh
instead of a registration-time snapshot
- the TUI smoke's cache-seeded wrapper is produced by the real
prepareDshPlugin (cache LAYOUT stays a deliberate external pin)
- new Loader integration test drives a live repositories update through
entry.update: generation swap, old skills removed, failed candidate
rolled back to the previous generation
Merges master (default-workspace-write-ui, installer-adopt-checkout,
remove-scoped-bash, goal-clear-single-flight, frontend-plugin-loader,
install-interface-choice, …).
Conflict resolutions:
- apps/cli/tests/shipped-composition.e2e.ts: keep the fixed glob/grep
roster assertion; master's workspace-write composition now confines
tool-bash, so the escalation pair is pinned present (my earlier
absence pin is superseded) together with master's permission facts.
- even-out-shipped-tool-rosters note: both sides edited it; the merged
text keeps both sets of changes and the pair is re-recorded.
glob/grep now run the @vscode/ripgrep binary via ctx.subprocess with a plain
argv vector: no system rg install, no shell layer, unconditional registration.
The load-time command -v rg probe and the bash-seam coupling are removed;
timeouts ride the cooperative exec.signal plus the seam's terminate
escalation. The fs-glob-sampling ACP snapshot executes the real packaged
binary against an mtime-pinned fixture. Adds the packaged-ripgrep-search
Agent Note, updates the roster-note facts and both shipped-composition e2es,
and regenerates the doc catalogs and third-party notices (surfacing
pre-existing manifest drift plus the new @vscode/ripgrep row; the notices
generator also learns pnpm 11's truncated virtual-store names).
Review of the previous commit found two defects in the release path, both
reproduced against the implementation:
- The timeout guarding a never-settling release was unref'ed. An
unhandledRejection listener suppresses Node's default fatal exit, so with
nothing else referenced the process reached an empty event loop and exited
0 on the very failure it was reporting. Keep the timer referenced and clear
it once the race settles.
- The handler uninstalled itself before awaiting the release. A second
concurrent rejection then became uncaught and killed the process
mid-teardown, stranding exactly the terminal state this restores. Replace
the uninstall with a latch: the first rejection is the reported one, and
later rejections (teardown's own included) fall through to the pending exit.
Add the PTY regression the fake-process tests cannot express: boot the shipped
tree over a fixture whose llm-pi-ai providers value is list-shaped, expect exit
1, and assert the captured bytes carry both the diagnostic and ESC[?2004l.
Against the pre-fix source the stream ends at ESC[?2004h ESC[>7u ESC[?u ESC[c
with no reset and the case fails, so it pins the actual bug.
Split the two-shape formatting test into one install per case; a latched
handler reports once by design.
