ctx.tasks.wait arms a deadline() fusing the caller's abort with the
wait timeout and classifies the outcome with timeoutOf scoped to the
new TASK_WAIT_TIMEOUT code: a wait timeout resolves to the live
snapshot (the task keeps running), a caller abort rejects the wait —
same contract, no hand-rolled timer/listener plumbing, and a nested
foreign deadline can no longer misread as a wait timeout. task_output
deliberately declares NO ToolDefinition.timeoutMs: timeout-policy
turns a timed-out call into a structured TOOL_TIMEOUT failure, but a
timed-out wait is a SUCCESS that must still report [status: running]
(decision recorded in the runtime RFC alternatives).
Adopts #185 (dsh-timeout: clampTimeout/deadline/timeoutOf drive bash
run() timeout classification; runBash loses its own timer) and #108
(ask_user_question) across the task-runtime rework: bash-local keeps
the BashProcess handle shape with master's deadline mechanics, tool
catalogs/expectations carry both the task_* and ask-user tools, and
generated docs are regenerated on the union.
Translate ctx.bash.run() REJECTIONS into the SEARCH_* taxonomy. The seam
contract has run() reject for infrastructure failures (a pre-aborted
signal, an unusable/deleted session workdir, a missing shell); the bare
await let those escape as plain Errors, so the tool registry produced
isError results without the structured SearchError { name, code } the
package documents. A pre-aborted spec.signal now maps to SEARCH_ABORTED
and any other start failure to SEARCH_FAILED, original error chained as
cause. Covered by fake-executor tests for both branches plus real-executor
integration tests pinning the exact pre-aborted-signal and deleted-cwd
paths.
One shared ctx.tasks registry (branded <kind>-N ids, owner-fenced
read/kill/wait/list, attachSurface misconfiguration fence, reported-flag
notice dedup, atomic register) + dsh-tool-tasks (task_output/task_list/
task_kill, completion-notice injection, background prompt habit).
Producers opt in via their own enableRunInBackground config: bash
(stream kind; seam slimmed to resolve/run/start returning a BashProcess
handle, bash_output/bash_kill deleted) and subagent (final-output kind;
done settles after run.dispose()). Owner disposal drains tasks through
the new awaited ctx.agents.onCleanup seam in the loop's disposal chain.
Both RFCs moved to implemented/; docs, catalogs, snapshots re-pinned.
Two functional gaps in the search tools change:
- Enforce rawOutputMaxBytes on UNTRUNCATED inline stdout too. The cap was
only checked on the truncated->raw-spill path, so an executor retaining
more inline than the search cap (or a deployment lowering the cap below
the bash retention) could smuggle an over-cap parse through, contradicting
the documented SEARCH_RAW_OUTPUT_OVERFLOW contract. Covered by a new
over-cap-inline test.
- Load @deepseek-ai/dsh-timeout-policy in the coding-agent tree. The search
tools declare timeoutMs but nothing in the demo enforced it, so the
advertised 30s budget silently degraded to the bash executor's 60s
backstop. The keyless smoke boots the amended tree.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-09-bash-backed-grep-glob-
discovery.md: model-facing glob/grep in a new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs-search
package, executing fixed ripgrep templates through ctx.bash.resolve/run —
not ctx.fs provider methods — so filesystem backends stay free of a search
contract and sandboxed/remote executors substitute cleanly. The tools never
call ctx.bash.start(); the tool layer owns quoting (one singleQuote safety
boundary), rg --json parsing, ItemRetainer/TextRetainer retention, and the
first tool-owned ctx.spillFiles.saveText() handoff (item-level retention the
generic post-execute spill policy cannot recover).
RFC amendments on the way to implemented/: a shared src/search-core.ts (the
SEARCH_* vocabulary + bash-run/raw-spill/spill plumbing was byte-identical
across both tools — the missed-extraction smell), and a snapshot-gap note:
wiring the acp-agent tree changes the assembled prompt, so goldens need a
keyed re-record; the spill notice text is pinned by unit tests instead and
only the coding-agent example ships the tools for now.
The generated program rode only rawInput — the detail/expanded slot
many ACP clients never open — so the code a run executed was invisible
in the UI stream. presentCall now also carries it as a fenced ts block
in the card's content, which the bridge already forwards as tool_call
content. The two code-mode snapshot goldens are re-recorded live and
replay green; the presentation unit test pins the fenced block.
P1 review finding: extractMeta timed only the literal's vm evaluation;
materializing the RESULT then read properties ordinarily on the HOST
stack, so a meta literal smuggling a getter (get name() { while(true){} })
could wedge the host outside any timeout — defeating the exact spin
isolation the worker thread exists for.
Rather than harden the evaluator (descriptor walks, AST validation),
delete the mechanism: the workflow's identity now reaches the seam as a
plain JSON field (WorkflowStartRequest.meta), carried by the tool as a
schema-validated `meta` object parameter the model fills directly. The
engine only shape-validates data (validateMeta, every violation named)
and pre-parses the body; the scanner, the vm evaluation, and the
host-side materialization are gone, and with them the hole. A body
still opening with a Claude Code-style `export const meta` statement
gets a pointed SCRIPT_PARSE message (the likeliest authoring slip; a
CC script's body stays drop-in, only its meta header moves into the
parameter). syncTimeoutMs now governs exactly one thing: the initial
synchronous slice inside the worker.
The RFC's decision section is rewritten in place (implemented-RFC
rule); the embedded-meta format moves to alternatives-considered with
the hole as the reason. Tool description, presentation (title now reads
meta.name directly — the textual sniff is gone), seam vocabulary docs,
and catalogs follow.
The regression's script spun immediately after calling agent(), but the
agent() continuation (which posts the child-start RPC) only runs on a
microtask tick — the spin seized the worker's loop before the post, so
the host never saw a child inside the waitFor window. A few await-null
yields before the spin let the RPC out; the posted message needs no
further worker-loop turns to reach the host, so the wedge still holds
for the Cancel message the test is about.
Pure mechanical rename now that the package's internals are the
worker-thread engine: directory, package name, spec/e2e filenames,
module tags and logger prefixes, tsconfig/knip/run-gates/AGENTS.md
references, example cordis.yml plugin ids, doc links; catalogs
regenerated and the lockfile refreshed.
The outer ring catches up with the engine swap (the package's own
README/JSDoc rode the port commit):
- Seam module doc and README name the worker-thread engine as THE
implementation, with isolated-vm/separate-process sandboxing as the
deferred hardening; the seam service doc states the holder-owned-runs
contract (engine-fiber disposal deliberately leaves live runs to
their holders).
- Seam contract precision: agentsStarted documents the termination-path
degradation to the host-observed count; the events section scopes the
agent-start/agent-end pair to calls that STARTED a child run;
WorkflowRun wording drops the vm-era abandonment language.
- The dynamic-workflows RFC is rewritten in place to the shipped
mechanism (implemented-RFC rule): why worker threads, the thread's
concrete buys, the in-process node:vm first cut recorded under
alternatives considered; the tool section describes the usage policy
as the tool's own prompt section.
- gen-doc-graphs: six workflow/* DYNAMIC_EVENT_DISPATCHERS entries (the
catalog no longer claims nothing dispatches them) and the seam-note
wording; core-data-structures gains its workflow.md index row;
packages/README + AGENTS.md layout line + example cordis.yml comments
say worker-thread; catalogs regenerated.
In-place port of dsh-workflow-vm from the in-process node:vm execution
to one worker thread per run (the workflow-workerthread engine of
PR #215, adopted as THE engine): the script's vm context moves inside
the worker, agent() bridges to ctx.subagents over the message port
(host.ts/protocol.ts/session.ts/worker.ts are new; runtime.ts loses the
abandon channel — the host's grace timer force-settles and TERMINATES
instead), start() pre-parses the body host-side to keep the seam's
synchronous SCRIPT_PARSE throw, and a ready→go handshake keeps a run
cancelled before start from ever executing the body. start() no longer
blocks the host, termination is real, and the value boundary is
serialization by construction. The package keeps its name until the
follow-up rename commit; scripts see the identical hook surface, and
the seam-contract tests hardened ahead of this swap pass unchanged.
The run and child-RPC surfaces are class-shaped rather than literal
bundles: WorkerRun IMPLEMENTS the seam's WorkflowRun (id/meta are its
own clone, separate from event payloads') and start() returns the
instance directly — interface parity with the seam is compiler-checked;
worker-side, ChildRpcBridge (implements ChildPort; callId allocation +
pending book-keeping settled by onChild* entry points) and
RpcChildHandle (every member an RPC keyed by its callId) carry names in
stacks. ChildPort's method is startAgent — it names what it starts,
matching the script-side agent() hook and the agentsStarted /
workflow/agent-* vocabulary; the Child* type names deliberately stay
(the worker side is cordis- and subagent-free; these are reduced JSON
projections, not the seam's types).
Review findings from the reference PR are folded in rather than
re-introduced:
- cancel() drives BOTH child-cancel channels host-side: the request
signal aborts AND each registered child's explicit cancel() is
called — a worker wedged in a synchronous spin cannot relay its own
ChildCancel RPCs (regression: cancel-only provider + wedged worker).
- All host warn paths render through the total renderThrown; a child
dispose() rejecting a value whose coercion throws still acks
ChildDisposed instead of wedging the script's finally (regression).
- built-worker.e2e.ts is wired into builtBinSmokeGate and the AGENTS.md
CI sequence — the built lib/worker.js resolution contract now runs in
an automated gate.
- workflow/end payload pinned on the worker-death path (with the
cancelled and grace-force-settle pins riding the ported spec).
- Real-Worker scripted timing budgets widened (50-300ms → 150-1000ms)
for starved CI hosts.
Workspace plumbing: the "./worker" subpath export sanctions the second
runtime bundle (check-workspace-constraints), tsdown builds two
single-entry passes, tsx becomes a devDependency for the unbuilt worker
spawn.
cordis provide() accepts any value and cross-mount composition advertises
ctx.provide('name', value), but the façade's readService unconditionally
proxied every declared service — new Proxy('42') throws "Cannot create proxy
with a non-object as target or handler", so a consumer of a primitive-valued
service crashed on first read with an error naming neither the service nor
the fix. A primitive or null value now passes through unwrapped (after the
denyContext check); only object- and function-valued services are proxied —
a primitive has no method that could hand back a Context, so nothing is lost.
New cross-mount spec pins both read paths (ctx.<name> and ctx.get) for a
number and a null provided value.
The sandbox docs overclaimed a containment contract the design never makes:
"capability access is routed through cordis services, never Node built-ins,
so everything a mounted plugin does stays inspectable and disposable". The
host-realm helpers on the sandbox global (harness, console, btoa) are
reachable functions, so mount code that goes looking can reach the host realm
through one of them — accepted under the trust stance, because the ctx a
mount ultimately receives is fully privileged anyway. Reword the sandbox
module doc, the README trust stance, and the RFC sandbox-semantics section to
say exactly that: the traps and small global surface STEER honest code onto
the cordis services; they are not a security boundary.
Three engine-agnostic pins, landed BEFORE the worker-thread port so the
port commit demonstrates contract preservation against them:
- tool-workflow: the tool:<toolName> prompt-section registration was
entirely unasserted — assemble() now pins the section present under
the CONFIGURED name and gone after fiber dispose (the packages
AGENTS.md dispose-and-assert-cleanup rule; tool-bash is the template).
- tool-workflow: drop the dead `??` re-defaulting of already-
schemastery-resolved config (the hidden-fallback shape AGENTS.md
bans) and the direct-apply test that existed only to cover those
branches; both engines' `config as ResolvedConfig` is the pattern.
- workflow-vm: workflow/end was asserted only on completed runs — the
cancelled path and the grace force-settle path now pin the event and
its stopReason/error/agentsStarted payload (an observer's only death
signal on those paths).
emitWorkflowEvent's catch rendered the thrown value with a bare
String(error), which itself throws when the value's toString /
Symbol.toPrimitive throws — breaking the documented containment
guarantee: such a listener could fail the run mid-emit, starve later
listeners, and turn the detached workflow/end settle hook into an
unhandled rejection. Render through a local total fallback instead
(String in a try, a fixed label when even coercion throws); local
because the seam sits below every engine and cannot import an engine's
renderer. Regression: a listener throwing a coercion-trap value — the
emit does not propagate and later listeners still run.
Reviewer-agent C1 on the audit delta: "byte-identical" overstated the
untampered-path guarantee — a 190-order section registered AFTER the
structured runtime sorts before the instruction in the registry's stable
sort but after it in the re-assert's band insertion. Intra-band section
order carries no contract, so the behavior is right and unchanged; the
module doc and both in-code comments now say exactly that instead of
claiming byte identity.
Codex follow-up findings on the carrier commit, both verified:
B: the invariant guard only protected the bind path — an overlay key
colliding with a non-configurable, non-writable OWN prop of a (pathological)
base would have the get trap report the overlay value, which the engine
rejects as a proxy invariant violation (TypeError at read time). The pin
check now runs FIRST and covers both invariant-pinned shapes (non-writable
own data prop reported as-is; getterless non-configurable accessor reported
undefined via the delegated read) before overlay and bind alike. Such a base
forgoes scope filtering by construction — correctness of the read beats
filtering for a base no production code ships.
C: `constructor` is looked up for identity, never invoked as a subject
method — binding it broke `carrier.constructor === Subject` for no benefit;
it now returns raw (the same special-case withProps had). Both pinned in
scope.spec: the frozen-own-filter collision yields the base's value without
throwing, and class identity survives the carrier.
ds-review-bot delta-round finding, verified: cordis hands the carrier to
listeners as `this`, and the event declarations type it Scoped<Agent> — so
driving the subject through it (this.send(...) in an agent/* listener) is a
SUPPORTED shape. The withProps-based carrier delegated gets with the PROXY
as receiver, so ReactLoopAgent's send/steer/cancel — which read the
native-private #carrier through a getter — threw TypeError when called that
way (private members do not exist on proxy receivers).
scopeTarget now builds its own proxy: overlay props (the composed filter and
the carrier mark) answer from a null-shadowed literal via hasOwn (`in` would
let Object.prototype's toString/constructor shadow the subject's), every
other get delegates with the BASE as receiver (getters see the real object)
and returns functions bound to the base (method calls execute on the real
receiver), sets land on the base. A proxy-invariant guard reports frozen own
function props unchanged (binding them would violate the get invariant).
This kills the class at the seam — any subject with native privates works,
today's agents and whatever carries them next — instead of patching the one
#carrier field.
Pinned both ways: a scope.spec matrix (native-#private method/getter through
the carrier mutates the real object; set delegation; frozen-own-prop
invariant; overlay non-shadowing) and the bot's exact end-to-end scenario
(an agent/session-start listener calling this.send drives a real turn) —
both fail with TypeError against the withProps carrier.
Two review findings (#220) on the sandbox context façade:
- Undeclared services were reachable: the façade resolved any live global via
ctx.get(name), so ctx.bash worked without inject: ['bash']. A cross-mount
consumer could then depend on a provider cordis never saw — unmounting the
provider would neither park the consumer nor unwind its registered tools,
leaving a model-visible tool that fails only at execution. The façade now
reads ctx.fiber.inject and refuses any service the mount did not declare
(with a teaching error naming the inject fix), so the dependency is always
visible to cordis and its activation/unload semantics bind.
- ctx.tools.get returned the live ToolDefinition, including execute — mount
code could call another tool directly and bypass ToolRegistry.execute and
its pre/post-execute hooks and accounting. get now returns the same
read-only name/description/parameters view as schemas(), never an invocable.
Adds inject-gate and schema-view regression cases to sandbox-context.spec.ts
(undeclared property/get denied, declared allowed, the cross-mount zombie-tool
scenario refused at call time, get exposes no execute). Package stays at
per-file 100% coverage. RFC, mount description, and tool-catalog updated.
Review finding (#220): the guarded proxy only special-cased ctx.tools, so
mount code could reach an UNGUARDED context through ctx.root, ctx.extend(), or
a service instance's .ctx, then ctx.root.tools.register({…}) to bypass the
marker check and host-realm normalization — a raw vm-realm result would later
error a real agent turn at the session-log plainness check.
The sandbox ctx is now a whitelist façade, not a pass-through proxy: it exposes
only what a mount needs — tools.register (marker-guarded), on/once, provide, the
timer helpers, and injected services resolved through a guarded get — and denies
every framework-plumbing member (root, parent, fiber, reflect, registry, extend,
isolate, intercept, plugin, set, mixin, …) with a teaching error. Injected
services are wrapped so a method returning a Context is rejected on the way back
(the .ctx escape), closing the one indirect leak. There is no context-valued
member left to reach; cross-mount provide/inject is untouched (the plugin's own
inject and the fiber's pending/active gating are unchanged). ctx.plugin (child
plugins) and ctx.set are denied by design; ctx.effect is deferred (FIXME).
Adds tests/sandbox-context.spec.ts covering the escape class (root/extend/fiber/
plugin/set/… denied, the classic root.tools.register bypass, the .ctx escape,
read-only writes) plus the async-service and symbol/in-operator paths for 100%
coverage. RFC/README/tool-catalog/config-catalog updated; api-catalog.ts
regenerated (also picks up the codeRuntime service that entered on the master
merge and was left stale).
The tree SHAPE was the wrong surface for the model: what it needs from
cordis_inspect is what services, plugins, and capabilities are loaded, not the
fiber hierarchy. The plugins section is now a flat name + lifecycle-state list
from ctx.registry (deterministically sorted, one line per instance); the ASCII
tree renderer, the parent→child rebuild, and the dyn-id tree annotation are
deleted — dynamic mounts keep their own richer dynamic section (id, state,
provides, waits). Net -49 lines; RFC and READMEs state the flat-list contract.
Field sessions showed models writing tool schemas in the JSON-Schema dialect
by strong prior — type: 'integer', required: false, then the full
{ type:'object', properties, required: [...] } wrapper — and the rejection
text itself pushed a nearly-correct DSL attempt BACK to raw JSON Schema: one
stats tool cost three consecutive schema errors before mounting. The boundary
now normalizes wherever the input has exactly one meaning (wrapper unwrapped
with the required array becoming per-property flags at any nesting level,
integer → number, required: false → optional, all rebuilt as fresh host-realm
objects) and rejects only genuinely meaningless input, enumerating the valid
vocabulary in the error. Re-running the failing session mounts first-try.
The mount description documents both accepted forms.
The sandbox deliberately provides no Node API, and now says so instead of
letting a bare ReferenceError teach nothing: require, the timers, and fetch
are callable traps whose error redirects to the cordis alternative (inject:
['fs'] + ctx.fs, ['web'] + ctx.web, ['bash'] + ctx.bash, ['timer'] +
ctx.setTimeout — a fiber effect, unwound on unmount). Only function-shaped
globals are trapped; process/Buffer stay undefined so typeof feature probes
stay inert. The mount description and the demo persona state the routing rule,
and the demo mounts ctx.fs (local provider) and ctx.web (seam + keyless local
fetch provider) so agent-built plugins have real capabilities to build on.
Live-validated: a model that reached for Node setTimeout self-corrected to
inject: ['timer'] in one step and built a working ctx.web fetch tool.
Everything outside the package and example that a new top-level group and a
new demo touch: GROUP_ORDER in gen-module-graph and gen-doc-graphs (plus the
tools-service consumers list, the APP_EXAMPLES entry, and the graph-atlas
label/mode rows), the knip e2e entries, the packages/README group row, the
AGENTS.md layout and demo lines, and the regenerated module-graph /
config-catalog / graph-atlas / capability-seams / composition artifacts.
AGENTS.md and examples/AGENTS.md word-budget ceilings rise to current+5%
(1802 / 653): the new group and demo rows are genuine additions to both docs,
not condensable restatements.
New top-level packages/cordis/ group with the self-referential toolset:
cordis_inspect (services / plugin tree / tools / dynamic mounts / api / events,
the api section intersecting the generated catalog with the live service store),
cordis_mount (model-written code evaluated in a node:vm sandbox, mounted under
one cordis-dynamic group fiber as dyn-<n>), cordis_unmount (awaited disposal to
quiescence). Boundary mechanisms: dual-realm instanceof, JSON realm
normalization of dynamic tool results, marker-guarded registration, SchemaSpec
teaching errors, parse failures surfaced with the offending line + caret and a
line-scoped TypeScript hint, and the unmount-first recipe on tool-name
collisions. Config: vmTimeoutMs (schemastery, default 5000). Design record:
docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-08-self-referential-cordis-toolset.md.
The tool-catalog boot manifest, its regenerated output, and the pinned
tool-name list land here rather than with the other repo registration: the
completeness guard globs packages/*/tool-* and fails the generator (and the
core/tools spec) the moment the package directory exists.
The extracted library's name sat one edit away from @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-inprocess
(process/inprocess), inviting a typo'd import to silently resolve to the wrong
package. subagent-subprocess also reads as the deliberate counterpart to
subagent-inprocess (in-process vs. subprocess), matching how the two shared
drivers actually differ.
Package directory, npm name, module doc, JSDoc module tags, test-file name and
its temp-dir prefixes, the subagent-acp import and its Config/tsconfig/package.json
references, root tsconfig.json/tsconfig.build.json/knip.json entries, and the
packages/subagent group README all renamed together; regenerated
docs/module-graph.md and docs/config-catalog.md. Pure rename — no behavior,
export, or Config shape changed.
Move compact-basic's private _extractText/_blocksToText into the interface
package as renderTranscript/renderContentBlocks, so the summarize path and a
future recall read path render one span identically. Byte-identical output
vs the private helpers it replaces; compact-basic delegates.
The exact-disposer fix (5fbac8be B1) repaired agents.register but left the
same wrapper (return () => void dispose()) at seven sibling sites:
tools.register, tools.restrict, systemPrompt.section/tools/variable,
agents.setFactory, and subagents.registerProvider. A wrapper makes correct
composite usage unrepresentable — the exact disposer cannot be recovered, so
a generator effect yielding it leaves the inner effect disposing as a
CONCURRENT SIBLING on owner unload, silently reproducing B1's ordering
corruption. The exact disposer serves both usages (composite-nestable AND
fire-and-forget callable); all seven now return it, typed
() => Promise<void> | void, with the convention pinned by a discriminating
test: an async-link composite probe that passes with the exact disposer and
observes the sibling unregistration firing mid-drain with a wrapper.
Re-auditing also surfaced that B1 itself SHIPPED a full-lint failure: it
changed register()'s return type without updating cross-file consumers
(agent.spec.ts dispose() statements, tool-bash's disposer list), which the
staged-scoped pre-commit lint never saw — pnpm run lint was red at HEAD.
Those three sites and this change's own fallout are fixed together: tests
now await disposers (stronger — they observe the full unwind), sync
paths void them, and the two annotation sites carry the honest union type.
agents.register's README line had drifted the same way (B1 updated the
JSDoc, not the README) — all seven README signatures now match; services
catalog regenerated.
Both demo:code-mode UIs now share one mechanism: the base example plus a
same-shaped code-mode.cordis.yml include overlay (insert the worker
runtime, flip tools.mode). Previously the REPL side was a hand-forked
example (examples/code-agent) that had also silently diverged — it
dropped compaction and the subagent stack — so the demo's UI argument
switched agents, not just surfaces. The fork is retired: coding-agent
gains the overlay, a Code Mode README section absorbing code-agent's,
and both of its tests (the keyless boot guard, retargeted at the
overlay; the with-key RFC proof, which hand-mounts its own harness and
moves untouched). The RFC's composed-surface and e2e-tier lines, the
examples index, the AGENTS.md smoke table, and the dsh-tools README
link now describe the overlay shape.
Verified live: overlay keyless smoke, with-key code-mode e2e from its
new home, demo:code-mode banner + EOF exit, and the acp handshake.
The partial-toolFilter materialization fix (da6c6d58) stopped one field
short: the adjacent agentOptions key in the SAME Config has the same
schemastery trap. An omitted agentOptions materializes {}, which is truthy —
so every yml-configured load put a dishonest agentOptions: {} on every start
request and the presence check in execute() could never be false through
config (only unit tests bypassing schemastery ever exercised that branch).
Harmless downstream today (the driver only spreads it), but the request
shape lied and the check was production-dead.
Same discipline as its toolFilter sibling: the omitted key now defaults to
undefined, the presence check is spelled !== undefined like its neighbors,
and a regression test (fails against the unfixed schema) pins that an
omitted agentOptions stays absent from the request. Swept every other
Config in the repo for the class: no further instances — omitted primitives
inside a materialized object stay ABSENT (verified empirically), so
subagent-mock's capabilities spread is safe, and the remaining object/array
fields all carry explicit defaults or the forced-undefined discipline
already.
Supersedes the single-slot staging the execution-identity fix (06c5f17e)
kept: the one pending slot needed a mismatch-drop branch plus a defensive
coverage-ignored finally to manage orphans, and it carried a latent trap —
under the loop's documented parallel-execution TODO, two in-flight capture
trips would overwrite the slot and BOTH be dropped.
Staging in a WeakMap<ToolExecution, {value}> makes the stale-stage class
structurally impossible instead of managed: an entry orphaned by an outer
short-circuiting listener can never match a different execution's lookup
(whatever call id that execution carries), needs no drop bookkeeping (the
map reclaims it with the execution object), and staging cannot cross-clobber
under parallel execution. Staging is the only layer this future-proofs — a
parallel cut would still owe its own single-accept rule for the captured
value, which is documented rather than claimed. Behavior is pinned by the
existing orphan/call-id-reuse regression tests, which pass unchanged; the
commit listener loses two branches and the v8-ignore.
Re-auditing the review-fix commits surfaced a regression the REPLACE
re-assert (825cbab3) introduced: unconditionally rebuilding both arrays as
filter(...)+append moved structured_output to the END of the model-visible
tool list on every untampered assembly (overriding the registry's
toolOrder/lexicographic contract) and moved the instruction section to the
absolute array end — renderPrompt reads ARRAY order, so any section above
order 190 would render before the trailing instruction, violating the
sections-sorted-ascending contract. The presence-check version it replaced
touched neither array when the entries were intact.
The re-assert keeps its REPLACE content semantics but is now
placement-preserving: the tool is replaced IN PLACE (duplicates collapse,
append only when stripped); the section is re-inserted at its
ascending-order position (the first entry above 190 — exactly where the
registry's stable sort put it, so the untampered path reaches the model
byte-identical). Pinned by two regression tests that fail against the
filter+append form: untampered placement (tool before a lexicographically
later tool, instruction before an order-200 section) and tamper recovery
(stripped section re-enters its band; an added duplicate collapses to one
right-schema entry).
Code Mode is the point; the UI is just the surface it happens to wear.
demo:code and demo:acp-code collapse into one dispatcher
(scripts/demo-code-mode.mjs): `pnpm run demo:code-mode [repl|acp]` —
repl (default) boots the stdio REPL over examples/code-agent, acp
serves examples/acp-agent's code-mode overlay; each UI runs the exact
node invocation its standalone script ran, and an unknown argument
fails loud with usage. All nine references across READMEs, the RFC,
the overlay header, and the keyless-smoke comment renamed. Smoked all
three paths: usage exit 2, ACP initialize handshake, REPL boot + EOF.
