A catalog entry may now carry its own `maxTokens`, matching the shape the
pi-ai adapter already exposes. Exact-model resolution prefers it over the
profile value, so capping one model no longer means capping the route.
Defaults are unchanged: an entry without a cap, and any unlisted
pass-through id, still resolve to the profile `maxTokens` (256,000), and the
shipped catalog keeps its context windows.
The remaining P1 from the #939 review, plus the P2 it shares a mechanism with.
Nothing carried a version, so two tabs editing one namespace silently
overwrote each other — reproduced as tab B's `reasoning` lost to tab A's
older draft. The seam's per-namespace write queue orders writes; it cannot
tell a fresh writer from one replaying a snapshot a predecessor superseded.
Each namespace now carries a monotonic `revision` over its RAW section. A
write may send `expectedRevision`, checked at the FRONT of the queue (not at
call time, which would race the very predecessor it guards against); a
mismatch rejects with `SettingsConflictError` → `settings-conflict` on the
wire, carrying both revisions. The editor captures the revision it opened at
and, on conflict, asks the user to reopen rather than replaying its snapshot.
The same counter fixes the missing broadcast. `settings/updated` is gated on
the resolved value — correct for consumers, wrong for configuration surfaces:
storing an override equal to the composition base leaves the resolved value
alone while changing what the document says (the field is now overridden, not
inherited) and moving every open editor's revision. `settings/document-updated
(ns, revision)` fires on any raw-section change, in-process or external, and
`host/settings-changed` now rides it.
That event also closes the stale model picker: editing a provider's `models`
changes no route, so `llm/adapters-updated` never fired and an open picker
kept serving the old catalog. A change to an exposed provider namespace now
emits `host/models-changed` too — that namespace holds the catalog.
Docs: both sides of the five touched README pairs, a type-equiv block for
`SettingsPathOp`, and an Agent Note recording what the plane exposes and who
may overwrite what. The deferred wire-redaction gaps (secrets behind
union/intersection/transform, `.default(...)` in the served envelope, schema
text in rejection messages, `new Function` rehydration, pi-ai's `headers`) are
recorded as TODO(settings-wire-redaction) and in Known Limitations rather than
half-fixed.
The policy home's resolve() now stamps readDenyPaths, so every consumer
that pins the resolved shape (bash-sandbox hand-off, tool-fs stamps)
carries it, and three uncovered branches gained real tests: landlock
reporting partial enforcement for a denial it cannot express, the
policy's default under programmatic construction, and both ambient
credential paths in llm-deepseek without a mounted seam.
ctx.llm gains 'llm/adapters-updated' — a payload-free registry notification
emitted at every topology commit point (adapter routes registering or
disposing, directory entries appearing or withdrawing) with contained
observers and INVARIANT rethrow — plus registerConfigurableProviders/
listConfigurableProviders, the directory of routes an adapter plugin can
activate through configuration. llm-deepseek declares deepseek-official
(whole llm-deepseek section as profile); llm-pi-ai declares the full
installed catalog under providers.<provider> even while dormant, so the
web settings surface can offer every provider before any route exists.
The invariant companion asserts the registry stays readable at each
notification.
The native adapter's route was named deepseek, colliding with pi-ai's
catalog provider of the same name, so the two DeepSeek paths could never
be mounted side by side. The web settings page needs both configurable at
once. Compositions, fixtures, goldens, scaffolding defaults, and docs all
move together (pre-release, no shim); TUI/session-query-spill/
missing-credential goldens re-recorded through their keyless refresh
modes because provider-name length shifts box padding and spill
truncation points.
New credentials data-structure page (type-equiv manifested), group README,
rewritten llm-deepseek/llm-pi-ai READMEs (dynamic configuration, dict
profiles, credential chain), capability-seams/service-role registration,
Agent Note (bilingual), demo compositions mounting settings-local +
credentials-local with no inline key plumbing, installSettingsSection
consumer helper on the settings seam (deduplicating both adapters' wiring),
jscpd symmetry markers for the provider twins, runtime-closure additions for
python/sdk-runtime, and doc-budget ceilings AGENTS.md 1750→1755 /
packages/README.md 850→865 for the structural one-line group rows.
- ui-model README pair (short-form Model Experience + audited registry
entry + Known Limitations), recorded in the pairing manifest
- llm-deepseek README pair rebased onto master's version with this PR's
real deltas (friendly names, 256k, selector consumers) on both sides;
runtime/ui-conversation READMEs revert to master (their sections
documented the removed Session state machine and control slot)
- config catalog regenerated for the ui-model roster row
- ModelDirectory.store JSDoc; ui-model files join the TODO(gui) coverage
deferral lane beside their ui-command/ui-slash siblings
Implements the approved simplification Agent Note: sse.ts now pipes the
response body through TextDecoderStream and EventSourceParserStream
(eventsource-parser/stream) and keeps only the DeepSeek protocol shim —
yield each event's data, terminate on [DONE], throw
LlmError('STREAM_CLOSED') on EOF without the sentinel. The SSE
spec-conformance tests are deleted; sse.spec.ts pins only the
[DONE]/STREAM_CLOSED/EOF contract, including the new spec-strict verdict
that an unterminated trailing event is truncation (the old parser
flushed it — a robustness nicety no real provider shape needs).
eventsource-parser@^3.1.0 becomes llm-deepseek's second runtime
dependency (already in the lockfile transitively via the MCP SDK).
Docs: the Agent Note moves proposed/ → implemented/ and is rewritten per
the lifecycle contract; the rejected NIH roll-up note's inbound links
follow. The twin-adapters note, dsh-llm LlmAdapter JSDoc (and its
type-equiv fences), cookbook, group/package READMEs, root AGENTS.md
layout line, sdk-helper comments, and the regenerated config catalog
drop the "hand-rolled fetch + SSE" claim in both languages; all eight
touched pairs re-recorded.
A well-formed provider stream that ends with finish_reason stop and zero
content blocks previously became a successful empty assistant message: the
turn completed silently, and drivers like goal-session counted the no-op
round. Both adapters now map that degenerate completion to a finish
{kind:'error'} with the new canonical EMPTY_RESPONSE code from dsh-llm, and
dsh-llm-retry adds the code to its default retryable set, so the existing
closed-step recovery path retries it and fails loud once the budget is
exhausted.
Covered by adapter unit tests, an llm-retry default-policy test, and a new
authored keyless ACP snapshot (empty-response-retry) with a deterministic
1 ms zero-jitter retry overlay.
A TUI run against an unreachable endpoint failed with only 'fetch failed':
undici wraps transport failures in a bare TypeError whose diagnosis lives
on .cause, and every diagnostic seam rendered only error.message. The
readline front door additionally rendered failed turns as pure silence.
- dsh-llm: new errorChain(value) renders the full cause chain and
AggregateError members with circular/hostile-coercion containment.
- llm-deepseek: pre-response transport failures throw LlmError('NETWORK')
naming the endpoint and chaining the fetch TypeError; aborts keep their
DOMException so the loop still classifies them as cancellation.
- agent-loop: durable turn/end error messages and logger warnings render
through errorChain; local renderThrown copies removed.
- ui-stdio: failure turn/end reasons now render ([turn failed <code>],
[turn aborted], [turn rejected], output-token-limit); startup-failure
logs use errorChain.
- ui-tui: agent/error notices and the startup-failure line use errorChain.
