ACP v1 requires every agent to accept text AND resource_link prompt
content; the automation rewrite dropped the resource_link half of that
baseline. Restore the old bracketed-reference flattening in the codec,
reject only beyond-baseline blocks, and update the package contract and
Agent Note.
Also release the per-session prompt slot when agent.send() throws
synchronously (an agent disposed outside the bridge would otherwise
wedge the session into permanent 'already in flight' rejections),
drop the tautological version-negotiation branch, prove the scenario
env layer reaches the snapshot subprocess, pin bridge-side fail-closed
permission errors, and correct two overpromising test names.
The childToolOmissions comparison arms ran only through the examples
snapshot suites, which the unit coverage gate does not count. Add an
authored child-omission scenario to the synthetic replay suite: one
scripted child omits the declared tool (header pin minus the omission,
prompt pin skipped), one keeps the full set (pin and prompt compared
verbatim), restoring 100% branch coverage on suite.ts.
Windows does not guarantee that an ordinary child process will continue after its parent exits. The fake ACP agent exited immediately after spawning its late-output descendant, so Windows could tear down that descendant and close the protocol stream before the delayed ACP update was written.
Launch the descendant in detached mode while continuing to inherit stdout and stderr, then unref it as before. This preserves the intended regression boundary: launcher shutdown must wait for descendant-held stdio and parse the final buffered frame after the direct ACP parent exits.
Use Node's explicit inherit stdio mode for the fake descendant instead of passing the parent process stream objects as child descriptors.
This keeps the grandchild's stdout and stderr handles open across the fake ACP parent's exit on Windows, so launcher shutdown must drain the late buffered update and stderr bytes just as it does on POSIX.
Pass the fake descendant the parent process's stdout and stderr stream handles instead of Unix-style numeric file descriptors. This lets Windows duplicate the live ACP and diagnostic pipes so launcher shutdown can prove that inherited handles, buffered frames, and stderr all drain after the parent exits.
Observe the pending update promise before initiating shutdown as well, preventing a missing late frame from becoming a transient unhandled rejection before the assertion reports the fixture failure.
Semantic resolutions beyond line merges:
- The bash seam keeps resolveMode + the bash/resolve-mode waterfall on
master's task-free BashExecutor (run/start/resolve only; BashProcess
handles); tool-bash consults it at its stamping site and escalation
baseline on master's render/background split, with a waterfall test on
the recording executor.
- dsh-mode's BASH_FAMILY narrows to ['bash']: bash_output/bash_kill are
replaced by the kind-generic task_output/task_kill, which span every
task kind and only observe or stop work, so the access cap withholds
only the starter it can reason about.
- The plan-mode snapshot suite adopts master's pin grammar (tool-schema
sidecars; the expectedHeaderSnapshots extension is gone — the exit
transition deltas, and entering-before-turn-1 needs no second
snapshot); modes-advertise joins the plan header class (no-model, so
membership is vacuous). Fixtures re-recorded on the acp-demo bin;
the replay overlay gains the passthrough sandbox runner.
- examples/plan-acp-agent rewires to @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-demo and drops
its tool-bash entry (the spine bundle now composes it); dsh-stdio (the
renamed stdio-chat home) keeps its /mode command and gains the dsh-mode
peer edge; the acp bridge keeps the modes surface beside master's
permission presets.
- mode README gains the Model Experience / Known Limitations sections the
new README gates require; AGENTS.md ceiling 1370 → 1440 for the kept
mode/ layout line and Agent efficiency section.
The stack rebases onto a moved master through its base branch. Beyond
mechanical unions (both branches' demo scripts, example rows, service
roles, tool lists, acp deps, doc budgets — each side fit alone, the
union needs the higher ceilings), three semantic reconciliations:
- The ACP bridge now carries BOTH per-session surfaces: the sandbox
stack's config options + approval answerer and this branch's session
modes; session/new and session/load advertise modes AND configOptions
side by side.
- The feature matrix supersedes the sandbox stance per the RFC's
second-lander rule: session/set_mode and current_mode_update flip to
shipped-by-dsh-mode, config-option rows stay as #169 wrote them, and
§6 records both landed features under the picker-to-modes /
knobs-to-config-options division.
- The snapshot pin grammar (#254: one header snapshot + declared deltas
+ a Markdown prompt golden) gains a symmetric declaration for what a
delta cannot express: expectedHeaderSnapshots — a plan-mode flip
resorts the canonical tool list, so its widening lands as a second
full snapshot, now its own Markdown section. The pin-less-class and
model-turn-only-pin amendments carry over; new fixtures cover the
extended writer paths, and the plan-acp-agent scenarios re-recorded
under the merged composition (the app now bundles the skill tool)
with the suite's refresh mode wired through.
The ACP bridge registers the first real approval answerer: an ask for an
agent it owns becomes session/request_permission attached to the already-
streamed tool call (one-shot allow_once/reject_once only), outcomes map
conservatively (unknown optionId never grants, client cancel → cancelled),
and foreign or call-less requests delegate down the waterfall. The snapshot
harness accepts scripted permissionAnswers (FIFO; an unscripted prompt
answers cancelled, fail closed) so recorded scenarios can drive the wire
keylessly.
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.
A scripted fake ACP agent bin (tests/fixtures/fake-acp-agent.ts) speaks
real newline JSON-RPC through the REAL runScenario spawn path (tsx
loader, temp cwd, env plumbing); every behavior — prompt outcome,
session/new rejection, persisted logs, filesystem noise — comes from a
behavior.json beside the fixture, so specs script whole subprocess runs
from data. harness.spec.ts drives every step op, both expect-error arms,
the permission-stub default, env forwarding, workspace seeding, and the
harvest ordering/noise/fallback branches. suite.spec.ts runs the factory
for real at collection time: a replay suite over committed synthetic
fixtures and a record suite over a temp copy (write-back never touches
the committed tree; ACP_SNAPSHOT_SPEC_BOOTSTRAP=1 re-bootstraps it),
plus direct cases for the exported pure helpers. The suite factory's
pure helpers (childFixturePaths, fixtureContext, normalizedHeaders,
headerDeltaCount) are exported for those direct specs.
Two branches carry justified v8 ignores, both structurally unreachable:
the waiter in-bounds guard (noUncheckedIndexedAccess) and waitForExit's
already-exited race guard (both call sites sit one synchronous frame
after stdin.end()/kill()). The fake bin substitutes the session/new cwd,
not process.cwd(), into scripted logs — the realpath difference
(/private on darwin) is exactly what the real bin's header carries.
packages/support/acp-snapshot/src is at 100% statements, branches,
functions, and lines under the per-file gate.
