Make Cordis construction and teardown ownership reentrancy-safe, then carry caller and provider ownership through reservation, setup, publication, quiescence, and sentinel retirement.
Stabilize registry carriers and factory/workflow boundaries, add adversarial lifecycle regressions, and align the rewritten RFC plus generated contracts with the enforced behavior.
dsh-tools and dsh-system-prompt gain a per-scope registration layer over
dsh-scope: a registration through a scoped context files into that scope,
shadows a same-named global contribution for that scope (per-agent persona
and tool variants), and unwinds with the scope. tools.restrict() masks the
global surface per scope (snapshot-at-registration, loud unknown-name
validation, intersection composition; scoped grants bypass). One visibility
function feeds schemas/get/execute, so prompt, presentation, and dispatch
can never disagree; out-of-view executes as UNKNOWN_TOOL.
Prompt tool providers now receive the AssembleContext and return
{schemas, knownNames}: toolOrder validates against the pre-restriction name
universe (a typo fails every assembly loudly) while ordering operates on
the post-restriction schemas (a restricted-away tool is a normal absence).
dsh-session captures each session's dispatch carrier at enter() from the
entering context's scope tag, and the new sessions.flush(session) owns the
awaited session/flush dispatch. tools/pre|post-execute and
system-prompt/assemble dispatch with scope carriers keyed by their subject;
session/created|event|flush by the owning session's scope.
- run-gates.ts docSyncLeafGates() gains verify-export-jsdoc — CI lanes
and the pre-push hook execute this leaf list, not the doc-sync npm
script, so the gate was previously unenforced there (proven by
SessionForkErrorCode landing undocumented via a master merge while
checks stayed green; now documented). Same wiring gap fixed for
master's verify-config-catalog, which was also missing from the list.
- The heritage exemption now recovers the base's return surface: a void
base return carried no @returns duty, so an override returning a
concrete result documents it itself (annotated overrides run the
standard check; unannotated ones are classified by the checker so
faithful void overrides need no boilerplate annotation). Three new
negative-path tests pin it; RFC and module doc updated.
- AGENTS.md states each principle inline instead of citing RFCs (eight
citations removed; high-level doc links kept) and the editing section
now carries the self-containedness rule.
- Generated catalogs/graphs regenerated for the shifted line pointers.
New doc-sync gate verify-export-jsdoc walks every module-level exported
name under packages/*/*/src and requires description prose everywhere,
plus @param per parameter and @returns on non-void annotated returns for
function-like exports, public class methods, properties, and accessors.
The parsing + check helpers move out of gen-cordis-catalog.ts into a
shared scripts/jsdoc.ts so 'documented' means one thing on both gated
surfaces.
Deliberate exemptions (documented in the RFC): heritage-declared class
members (the seam declaration is the doc's one home — the one checker
query in an otherwise pure-AST walk), cordis plugin-protocol slots
(name/inject/reusable/Config/apply, top-level and static), constructors,
overload implementations, declare-module augmentation bodies, and
re-export statements (checked at the defining module).
The 203 under-documented exports the gate found at adoption are filled
in this change, so the gate lands green; generated catalogs/graphs are
regenerated for the shifted line pointers.

Codex diff review, round 1, two (A) findings:
- The agent/request fallback resolved the RAW seed object — on later
steps the session's cached header fold — so a delegating listener
(await next(), mutate, return) could rewrite the fold in place and
the change would compare as already-baseline: no delta logged, the
persisted log unable to reconstruct the request (the dev invariant
would fire on the divergence, but the log would still lie). One
structuredClone'd, deep-frozen seed now serves both the listener
chain and the fallback — in-place shaping after delegation throws —
and Session.requestHeader() freezes its fold on update, so the leak
class is unrepresentable from either side. Pinned by a loop-level
delegating-mutator test.
- Doc sweep for the old contract: agent README's event row (mutate
GenerateOptions / tool filtering → frozen config seed, replacement
out, logged header), compact-basic's module JSDoc (summarize routed
through agent/request → direct one-shot at llm/stream), and
architecture.md's event-domain line (request mutation → call-config
shaping).
The loop is now transmission-stateless; a request is a pure function of
(session log, this step's rendered assembly, current AgentOptions):
- The reconstruction boundary is step/start: the messages snapshot is
taken in the same synchronous frame immediately before the step/start
append, so the request's messages are exactly the derivation over
events[0..stepStartSeq) — an inject() from an agent/request listener
(or any concurrent task) lands after the boundary and joins the NEXT
request. This changes behavior for a synchronous step/start
session/event listener that appends content (master derived after the
append, so such a listener could reach the current request):
agent/pre-step is the sanctioned seam for current-request content.
- agent/request is re-typed to config-only: (agent, turn, step,
config: LlmCallConfig, next) → LlmCallConfig. The frozen seed comes
from AgentOptions on a loop instance's first request (explicit options
beat the logged baseline — fork overrides and resume reconfiguration
stay correct) and from the log's folded header afterwards; listeners
return a replacement to switch. Content shaping through the request is
no longer expressible — model-visible content flows through the log
channels.
- recordRequestHeader appends whatever header event the request owes the
log before dispatch: an 'initial'/'resume' snapshot anchoring each
loop instance, a round-trip-verified delta on change, a 'fallback'
snapshot when the encoding cannot express it. Session.requestHeader()
is the log's incrementally-folded baseline.
- Requests are deep-frozen before dispatch (deepFreeze exempts the
AbortSignal — freezing one breaks AbortController.abort() outright);
frozen + sessionId is the loop-built marker the dev invariant keys on.
Ported from #162 and re-anchored on the log: the append-extension /
frozen-end-to-end / compaction-resend / prompt-change property tests,
plus new specs for the boundary semantics, resume anchoring, and the
end-to-end theorem (every recorded request rebuilds byte-equal from the
log alone). Live cache-hit e2e (request-cache.e2e.ts) verified against
the real DeepSeek API. Snapshot goldens intentionally stale until the
single re-record after the compact/summary envelope lands.
deriveMessages() no longer re-derives and re-clones the whole surface
per call: each node is projected exactly once, when first seen (O(new
nodes) per access), through the now-public deriveEventMessage — the
per-node pure function external reconstructors and the dev invariant
fold over a log prefix, so no two paths can disagree about a request's
messages. A surface rewrite (replace, invalidate) rebuilds, signalled
by SurfaceManager.replaceGeneration — monotonic, bumped by every folded
replace and by invalidate(), never reset. Callers get a fresh array
snapshot per call over SHARED deep-frozen messages: isolation of the
append-only log moves from per-call cloning to unrepresentability
(mutation throws), which the two isolation tests now pin directly.
Every conversation request's non-content half (system prompt, tool
schemas, call config — the EpochHeader) is now recorded in the session
log: a 'request/header' full snapshot (reason 'initial' | 'resume' |
'fallback') anchors the fold at conversation birth and process
boundaries, and 'request/header-delta' events (system line-trim,
name-keyed tools delta, whole config) encode mid-run changes. The pure
trio — foldRequestHeader / diffHeader / applyHeaderDelta — reconstructs
the header any request was built under from the log alone; the writer
contract round-trip-verifies every delta with a 'fallback' snapshot
when the encoding cannot express a change (pure tool reordering), so a
well-formed log always folds cleanly. Canonical absence: empty system
and empty tools normalize to absent fields, matching request builds.
Persistence and cordis catalogs regenerated; SessionEventMap paste and
EpochHeader added to the core-data-structures session page.
gen-cordis-catalog now hard-errors (aggregated, not fail-fast) when an
event lacks description prose or a payload @param, or a public service
method lacks JSDoc, a @param per parameter, a @returns on a non-void
result, or an explicit return type annotation. The this receiver and the
trailing waterfall next are exempt on events (mode machinery owned by
@mode); a stale @param naming no real parameter errors, mirroring the
@mode contradiction check. parseJsDoc now ends prose at the first block
tag (standard JSDoc semantics), so the tags never change the rendered
catalog — only Source: line pointers moved.
Fills the ~139 gaps found across the 15 surface files, extends the spec
with negative-path fixtures for every new guard plus the exemptions,
records the decision as an implemented process RFC, and extends the
AGENTS.md typed-events bullet with the authoring rule. Runs inside
verify-cordis-catalog -> doc-sync, so CI and pre-push enforce it with
zero new wiring.
fs write/edit now emit a result-time contextual-diff tool_call_update
(the applied hunk with ±3 context lines, one hunk per replace_all site),
matching what claude-agent-acp sends and what makes an editor render the
change in place. The call-time snippet diff stays; the result hunk
supersedes it (ACP content-replace).
Mechanism:
- A persisted tool-private `meta` channel: execute may return
`{ content, meta }`; `meta` (JsonValue) rides on the tool/result event
and is handed back to presentResult, so the diff reproduces on replay
(event-sourced). JsonValue is now exported from dsh-session.
- The backend returns raw before/after text (storage facts) on
FsWriteOutcome/FsEditOutcome; the tool computes the hunk via the npm
`diff` package's structuredPatch. A create has no before → no result
diff; a failed/aborted mutation carries no meta.
- ToolResultView gains a DiffResultView; the bridge's result-side switch
renders it as {type:'diff'} content blocks.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-02-result-time-applied-hunk-diffs.md
(justifies the npm `diff` runtime dep over vendoring and the meta channel);
the render-intent-union RFC's Non-goal is updated to record this shipped.
All fs snapshot goldens re-recorded; edit/overwrite gain the contextual
result diff, create/read/policy-reject unchanged in structure.
Codex round 1 CBR-001: a head-anchored compaction checkpoint was
mis-classified by the log-position step-alignment scan, so a second
auto-compaction over a checkpoint-headed surface silently failed.
Root cause: `isStepAlignedStart/End` scanned the LOG by seq, but a
`replace` op lands a checkpoint at a high log seq whose SURFACE position
is the head — its log neighbours (the open step's assistant/message) are
not its surface neighbours, so the forward scan wrongly reported mid-step.
Fix, per the agreed direction:
- Replace the two log-position predicates with one surface-anchored
helper `isToolPairingBalanced(nodes, events, beforeSeq)` in
`dsh-session` (renamed step-boundary.ts → tool-pairing.ts). A cut is
balanced when no unanswered tool-call precedes it on the surface; a
region is collapsible iff both edges are balanced cuts. The open-tail
and free-node cases fall out of the same counter. It also throws on a
corrupt surface (a tool/result with no matching call).
- Move compaction off the in-step seam to a new "pre-step" seam fired
after turn/start and before step/start, so a compaction's log-only
compact/* records and its replacement node land cleanly OUTSIDE any
step (the honest structure crash-safety relies on). Renamed the event
agent/pre-request → agent/pre-step and switched its dispatch from
parallel → serial (listeners mutate the surface as a side effect;
serial isolates them so concurrent appends can't interleave). Extended
the catalog generator to accept @mode serial.
Regression coverage: a real-loop test driving an auto-compaction asserts
the landed checkpoint is a balanced cut on both sides; unit tests pin the
checkpoint case, the mid-step injection case, multi-call steps, and the
corrupt-surface guard. Proven red on the old log-position logic.
Collapses the per-round review churn of the prior compact-basic branch into a
single clean baseline on top of compact-interface, so the upcoming retention
refactor lands as fresh, well-scoped commits rather than stacking on a history
of fixes that are being superseded.
P1: both merge parents shipped SCHEMA_VERSION=3 for different layouts (surface
columns vs seed_length), so an on-disk 3 was ambiguous and wrongly accepted.
Bump to 4 (merged layout) so the version check rejects both sibling v3s.
P2: a surface-eligible event with no surfaceOp lands in the log but vanishes
from deriveMessages() (surface is the sole derivation path). The typed append
overload enforces the marker only when the type arg is a literal; it collapses
to optional when widened to the union (a caller iterating raw events). Guard at
runtime in both append() and the seed constructor — no backward-compat for
surface-less logs. Shared seed fixtures carry surfaceOp explicitly and the
appendLog helper forwards it verbatim (no synthesized default). Exports
isSurfaceEligibleType. Regression tests for all three, each verified to fail
on the unfixed code.
Gates: typecheck, test (1115), snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build, hygiene green.
Reconciles the session-surface work (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs provenance as
the sole derivation path) with master's worktree-subagent series (fork-seed
boundary + out-of-process subagent backends).
Semantic reconciliations beyond the textual auto-merge:
- SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION: both sides bumped 2->3. Merged to a single v3 carrying
BOTH column families — master's seed_length on `sessions` and surface's
source_event_seqs/surface_op on `events`. writeRow + both INSERT sites bind
the full set; the schema doc lists all three added columns as the v2->v3 gap.
- agent-loop runStep request: master's `sessionId: session.id` and surface's
per-append surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs coexist (different regions).
- Fork seed + surface: a fork seeds the child from the parent's LIVE events,
which now carry surfaceOp, so the child's surface rebuilds correctly. Verified
end-to-end — the subagent-fork replay recalls the inherited "SAFFRON" codeword
through the seeded prefix.
- Subagent snapshot fixtures (recorded pre-surface) re-enriched via KEYLESS
deterministic replay: only surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs added onto existing
recorded lines (matched by seq), no recorded value changed. Not re-recorded
against the live API.
Gates: typecheck, test (1112), test:snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build,
hygiene all green.
A fork subagent seeds its child session with a prefix of the parent's log, and
that seed becomes the child's persisted log — so a fork child's .jsonl begins
with the PARENT's events, including the parent's assistant/chunk events. The
snapshot replay harness derived a child's script from its whole log, which would
replay the parent's recorded responses as the child's model calls. Spawn-only
scenarios never hit it, but a fork snapshot would mis-route silently.
Record the seed boundary and skip the inherited prefix at replay:
- SessionHeader gains an optional `seedLength` (how many leading events were
inherited via a seed), threaded through CreateSessionOptions/CreateAgentOptions
meta and stamped by the fork backend (= seeded-prefix length; absent for spawn).
It is EXPLICIT, never inferred from seed.length: a resume seeds the whole stored
log, so the resume path passes the persisted boundary back.
- Both persistence backends round-trip it: JSONL header line, SQLite seed_length
column. The SQLite table change bumps SCHEMA_VERSION 2->3; per the pre-release
stance the backend rejects an older user_version on open with NO migration.
- llm-replay's parseSessionHeader reads seedLength and loadSessionScripts derives
a child script from events AFTER the boundary. seedLength is 0 for spawn, so
spawn replay is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Closes the routing-correctness gap the per-session snapshot replay RFC under-
stated; a recorded fork scenario remains a future addition but now derives
correctly. RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/testing/2026-06-22-fork-child-replay-seed-boundary.md.
Regression coverage: a fork child fixture whose seeded prefix carries a parent
chunk (derived script must exclude it, proven red without the slice); a seedLength
persistence round-trip through the shared coordinator contract (both backends);
the fork backend stamping it; resume preserving it from the persisted header.
