Combine agent initiator scoping and exact Cordis JSDoc inspection with post-step compaction and bounded request recovery.
Regenerate the Cordis and website API catalogs, and classify the recovery and compaction types required by the current catalog link-coverage gate.
The Layering ASCII diagram was cluttered, lumped THE concrete loop plugin
undifferentiated into a grab-bag plugins box, omitted dsh-agent-core and the
app packages, and restated the dependency rule that packages/README.md
already owns — while being the first thing a reader linked from README hits.
- Drop the Layering section; the tier story becomes one intro sentence and
the dependency rule a one-line Service map footer linking
packages/README.md#dependencies.
- Split the Service map into the spine (packages/core/) vs the swappable
capability seams; annotate ctx.agentLoop as THE concrete loop plugin.
- Promote Cordis waterfall semantics to a top-level section placed before
first waterfall use; drop '(important)' from the heading (anchor swept:
AGENTS.md, gen-cordis-catalog.ts + regenerated catalog).
- Promote Event taxonomy to a top-level section (anchor unchanged).
- Retitle 'The vocabulary (dsh-llm)' to 'Content blocks and streaming
(dsh-llm)' so the heading names its content (citation swept:
llm-streaming.md).
Net -29 words (1851 -> 1822); the 1890 ceiling stands, keeping the
manifest's working margin.
dsh-llm owns the vocabulary (attribution.ts): AppIdentity with the version
read from the package manifest, userAgent(), and attributionHeaders(target,
identity) over a closed AttributionTarget union ('generic' | 'openrouter').
Both adapters send the headers on every provider request — llm-deepseek in
its fetch headers, llm-pi-ai through pi-ai's StreamOptions.headers — behind
an explicit attributionTarget config (never inferred from baseURL), with
mock-server tests asserting exact wire arrival and the absence of the
OpenRouter set by default.
The RFC moves to implemented/ amended with the settled identity (the
deepseek-harness token, the DeepSeek Harness title, the planned
deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness-sdk URL behind a FIXME until that repo exists)
and the explicit-config OpenRouter decision.
ImageBlock had no production producer and every consumer dropped it:
the deepseek serializer skipped it, the pi-ai converter skipped it as
unrepresentable, the ACP bridge neither advertises image prompt
capability nor forwards image blocks, and compact-basic charged a flat
85-token estimate and rendered an [image] placeholder. A block
constructed today would silently vanish from the wire — the vocabulary
advertised a capability no path honors, the silent-data-loss shape the
defensive patterns warn against. The only constructors were tests
pinning the skip/estimate branches.
Remove ImageBlock and its ContentBlockMap entry (its cache?: CacheHint
field leaves with it; CacheHint itself and the other two cache? fields
are out of scope). compact-basic loses its explicit image estimate and
placeholder arms (the merge-extensible default arms absorb the case);
the deepseek serializer, pi-ai converter, and ACP codec already handled
image in their default arms, so only their image-naming comments
change. The codec's inbound rejection of ACP-protocol image prompt
content stays — that guards wire content a client can send regardless
of our vocabulary.
Tests that constructed harness image blocks to pin the removed branches
are dropped (the 85-token estimate pin) or retargeted onto plugin-added
block types / other non-text blocks, which the surviving default arms
own. Docs, the type-equiv pastes, and the content-block vocabulary
RFC's block list and multimodal-home consequence are updated in the
same change; the RFC moves to implemented/ and the index is
regenerated. A real multimodal feature reintroduces image via
declaration merging together with the adapter mapping, ACP
advertisement, and compaction pricing that honor it.
The LLM service exposed three call surfaces (stream/streamBlocks/generate) but
the only production consumer — the agent loop — uses stream() exclusively,
feeding raw chunks through its own BlockAssembler for replay fidelity. Drop the
speculative convenience surfaces and the registry-change event that no listener
consumed, leaving stream() as the single model-call contract for both
production and tests.
- Remove LlmService.streamBlocks() and generate(), the llm/generate waterfall,
and GenerateResult.
- Remove the llm/adapter-change event (declaration + emits) and the
listener-throw rollback ordering that existed only to protect it; keep the
HMR rollback disposer.
- Remove BlockAssembler.flushReady()/flushRemaining()/result() and the flushed
cursor — the streaming-flush slice existed only for streamBlocks().
- Adapter tests drive a stream()+BlockAssembler helper (tests/assemble.ts)
instead of generate(), exercising the same path production uses.
- Land the AGENTS.md "RFCs are proposals, not golden truth" principle and move
both RFCs proposed -> implemented.

Merge brought in the RFC-classification reorg and two new doc gates;
rewrite every drifted packages/<name> cross-link (Markdown link targets,
moved-README relative depths, and .ts comment paths) to the grouped paths.
Add two doc-sync/hygiene gates so the manual checks this restructure
needed become automated:
- verify-package-paths.ts: flags a packages/<path> reference (in Markdown
or a .ts comment/string) that does not resolve AND names a real package
in a segment — i.e. a stale path to a MOVED package. A path naming a
non-existent package (a forward-looking proposal) is left alone, so it
applies uniformly across proposed/implemented/rejected.
- check-workspace-constraints: assert the packages/<group>/<pkg> depth-2
shape (group dirs carry no package.json; no flat or over-nested
packages). Group names stay open; only the shape is fixed.
A new docs/core-data-structures/ folder: a self-contained core.md defining what
counts as a "core" data structure (the agent-loop spine) and covering the spine
vocabulary, plus per-seam sub-pages (llm-streaming, session, persistence, tools,
bash). Type definitions are pasted verbatim via `ts type-equiv` blocks and
drift-checked by verify-type-equiv. Cross-linked from architecture.md; the
`ts type-equiv` mechanics are documented in development.md.
