client-hmr is a normal plugin package composed into dev graphs only. It
listens on /plugins/events and reloads one plugin per rebuilt frame,
serialized: invalidate, prefetch (fresh factory registers while the old
fiber still serves), registry.delete before touching the fiber, drain
disposers, drop owned style tags, entry.refresh(), fiber.await() loud.
Dependency cascade costs zero client code — fiber activation epochs
re-load dependents through cordis itself. Reload is coarse by design;
no rollback in v1; self-reload works with a frame gap the next rebuild
heals.
scripts/dev-web.ts (pnpm run dev:web) is the convenience watch-build:
it discovers its package list by scanning packages/*/*/package.json for
dshClient platform "web" at startup — no hardcoded roster — and talks
no protocol to the host. Gate bookkeeping rides along: knip entries for
the new packages, README model-experience allowlist rows.
The registry scans mounted Loader entries' dshClient declarations and
composes __DSH_BOOT__ {rev, entries} — inject edges and the immediately
mark come from manifests, never hand-copied; malformed fields fail loud
at load. The composing app owns one flat roster plus the --dev switch
(hmr row and bundle watching are dev-graph decisions).
The rebuild signal is the webserver's own observation: in dev mode the
registry stat-polls each scanned bundle (fs.watchFile; polling because
network mounts deliver no inotify), re-hashes on change, and broadcasts
a rebuilt frame on the /plugins/events SSE channel only when the rev
actually changed. Watch membership follows the table across rescans;
dispose drops all watches; a torn read self-heals on the next tick.
The POST /plugins/rebuilt endpoint is gone — builders and the host
share zero protocol. dsh web --dev logs the watched bundle list and
each rebuilt id with its rev transition.
Every client plugin package carries dshClient ({platform, inject,
immediately?}) and emits lib/client.js through the shared clientBundle
preset; exports["./client"] points at the bundle. The infrastructure
tier (connection, runtime, ui-theme, i18n, hmr) declares immediately: true
in its manifest — absent means lazy. The bundle purity gate covers all
nine packages: platform modules stay external, INLINE_SAFE wire layers
inline, any other cross-plugin value import is a build error. Migrations
that rule forced: scopeOf became a SessionsService method and
transportError moved into dsh-host-apiproxy's wire layer; the store
engine stays in runtime under a documented temporary exemption
(TODO(webload/store-rehome)).
The module system moves out of dsh-client-runtime (./loader retired) into
its own package: a lazy CJS table where executing a bundle only registers
its factory and materialization happens at first require, memoized, with
recursive requires self-ordering. ClientModuleSystem is a class; index.ts
keeps the types and a thin factory. Boot is two-phase: phase one prefetches
the immediately tier in parallel (registration only, failures deferred to
phase two's loud import); phase two mounts the vendored Loader with the
module system as internal, creates one entry per graph row plus the
app-shell pseudo-row the kernel appends itself, and settles on an
all-ACTIVE sweep. The shell kernel is self-sufficient: hand-rolled
loader-status stores, no plugin value imports, platform seed list single-
sourced in platform.ts.
- The real-browser collapse smoke tracked the old chrome: visible HARNESS
text (the wordmark svg is aria-hidden now), an 'Expand sidebar' label
(renamed 'Open sidebar'), a 300px settle (default is 280), and an
immediate focus assert (rail search defers focus past the slide). The
case now tracks the brand span, polls the deferred focus, and uses the
current labels and width.
- Tooltip treated hover and focus as one trigger: leaving with the mouse
dropped the bubble of a still-focused anchor (and vice versa). The two
triggers are tracked independently; the bubble hides only after both
clear. Spec pins both orders.
- The ui-sidebar README and the bilingual collapse note still described
the retired geometry morph; both now state the slide + crossfade
contract, the fixed-width (never-conceding) sidebar, and the rail's
whale-mark/tooltip chrome.
The composer seat lives in a fixed-height conversation column with
overflow hidden, so a long question batch pushed the footer actions out
of reach (review r3635427112). The card now flexes with a viewport-
relative max-height, the option list is the scrollable region (ChatView
list pattern: min-height 0 + overflow-y auto), and header/footer are
flex-shrink 0 so progress, navigation, skip, submit, and cancel stay
reachable.
Verified in headless chromium against this sheet (900x600 viewport,
30-option batch): card capped at 360px (60vh), the option list scrolls
(scrollHeight > clientHeight), and the footer submit/skip buttons stay
inside the viewport. jsdom cannot assert layout; the playwright smoke
follow-up tracks composer scrolling with the existing debt.
AskUserQuestionItem.detail is part of the user-interaction seam contract
but the web frame schema dropped it and the composer never rendered it
(review r3635427108). askUserQuestionItemSchema now forwards detail, the
composer renders it under the title in the description text style, and
the fixture's multi-select question carries one.
ask() already fails EMPTY_QUESTIONS before a request exists, so a
question/requested frame with zero items is host breakage; muxFrameSchema
now refuses it instead of letting an undefined first question reach the
composer (review r3635427102).
Two hardenings on the chain outlet branch:
A throwing chain selector runs before its entry's SlotErrorBoundary
exists, so uncontained it blacked out the whole owner region and skipped
the remaining chain. It now degrades to a decline: reported via
console.error with the registrant identity, later entries still tried,
all-null/all-throw passes land on the owner fallback.
The elected entry's boundary is now keyed by entry identity: an unkeyed
boundary that failed on entry A survived a re-election and kept a
healthy entry B blacked out until the outlet unmounted. The key remounts
the boundary fresh whenever the election changes.
