The client-hmr row joins the web bundle as an ordinary always-on roster
row: without a rebuild watcher rewriting client bundles it polls
unchanged files and stays idle. This deletes the --dev flag, the web
runtime's mode config, the mode-forked prompt contract, the DSH_WEB_MODE
bash variable, and the post-settlement row-creation machinery the
conditional row required. dsh web + pnpm run dev:web remains the
development loop.
Replaces the patch round trip. An app's entrypoint resolves the command
line into a service, and the rows it configures read that service from
their own config — port: !!js ctx.get('webStartup')?.port ?? 3080 — so the
resolved value beats the value written beside it and nothing is written
back into a row or handed to the launcher.
A bundle names the entrypoint row in its manifest (dsh.bundle.entrypoint),
which is what lets the boot mount in two passes: entrypoints alone, then
the whole composition. That ordering is required, not cosmetic — a row's
config expressions are evaluated when the include applies the row, and a
strict ctx.get only answers for a service whose providing fiber is already
active.
What this removes: ctx.appPatches and the launcher-owned patch layer, the
disable/re-enable recycle and its in-flight-mount barrier, overrideConfig,
and the reload hazard they existed for. A live config edit now re-applies
the second pass against services that are still up, so a served port
survives by construction.
What it adds: ctx.appReady, because Loader settlement no longer means the
app is up — a row mounted in the second pass can observe a settled tree
while that pass is still running, or already rolling back. The web URL line
waits for it, so a boot that fails in the second pass announces nothing.
dsh-web-app owns --host/--port/--dev/--workspace-root/--trusted-host and
its --help in a web-startup row; the rows it configures wait for the
webStartup service, and the client-plugin HMR receiver now ships disabled
so --dev is a row toggle rather than a runtime insert (the Loader cannot
resolve a row inserted from inside a mounting plugin).
dsh-headless owns the task positional and rejects a missing task as its own
usage error. Its runner ships disabled, not merely waiting: the schema
requires the task, and a row's config is validated when its fiber is
created, before the startup row can supply one. A composition has exactly
one command-line owner, so the patch disables the web startup row and this
one provides webStartup too, leaving the web rows on their composed
one-shot values.
The keyless web scaffold provides the same three values with no arguments,
which is what an embedding host with no command line does.
