The shipped surfaces loaded the harness home's .env into the process
environment before cordis booted. credentials-local then saw every stored
key as an ambient launch override: describe reported source 'env' with
writable false, and set/unset rejected as shadowed — so a key the web page
or TUI stored was unrotatable and undeletable from the next run onward,
and the adapter kept using the value captured at launch.
The home's .env is now the credential provider's own store, read by that
provider alone and hot-reloaded by it. The genuine launch environment and
the invoking directory's .env (loaded by the bin) remain the read-only
ambient layer, so a plain composition without the provider still resolves
keys exactly as before.
Proven by a real restart in the loader composition: store a key through
the seam, dispose the tree, re-boot over the same harness home, and the
entry is still file-sourced and writable — rotating it lands on the very
next request.
Review round three, credentials half. dsh-atomic-write grows the
cross-process writer-lock primitive (withFileLock: wx sentinel, bounded
backoff, stale takeover via onStaleBreak, deadline failure) plus a dirMode
option, and settings-local migrates its private copy to it; both providers
now create harness-home directories 0700.
credentials-local reuses the reviewed settings-local shape: watcher
reloads and line edits share one settled operation chain; every write
re-reads the document under the lock and publishes unobserved external
entries before editing, so an edit inside the debounce window (or another
process's write) can never be overwritten; the watcher's ready signal
queues one reconcile closing the startup gap.
The line editor is now physical-line aware: continuation lines of a
quoted multi-line value are never mistaken for assignments, untouched
lines keep their exact bytes (CRLF included), an edited line keeps its
own terminator, and appends use the document's dominant ending. A
multi-line entry reports writable: false, matching what set() would do.
The Credentials base class owns a contained notifyUpdated fan-out:
providers publish only after the commit, every listener runs, sync throws
and async rejections are logged without failing the committed write, and
INVARIANT-coded failures rethrow after the fan-out.
Drop the explicit-undefined base fixture exactOptionalPropertyTypes
forbids (the repository trusts TypeScript at typed same-process seams —
no test for an input the static interface excludes; coverage holds), and
reshape the async-listener containment fixture as an unknown-returning
function: the earlier inline cast was silently stripped by the staged
oxlint fixer, leaving a shape the next lint pass rejects.
The seam README states the JSON-shaped write boundary, watch-disposer
quiescence, async listener containment, and the drained teardown; the
provider README rewrites Behavior around the operation chain,
read-modify-write, writer lock, ready reconcile, and leaf-level YAML
diffs, and updates Known Limitations to the residual guarantees.
A new Agent Note records the round's decisions and supersedes the
original note's deferred-lockfile alternative (cross-linked in place).
Chinese counterparts updated pair-by-pair (three briefed minimal
updates, one whole-document translation); type-equiv, config, cordis,
and module-graph catalogs re-recorded.
Review round three found the provider's write path could destroy state it
never observed:
- Watcher reloads and document writes ran on two independent promise
chains, and a write rendered the whole next document from the cached
text. An external edit still inside the debounce window (or missed
outright) was overwritten, and the follow-up reload no-oped because the
post-rename content matched the cache — the edit vanished without a
trace. Reloads and writes now share one operation chain, and every write
starts by reconciling the on-disk text into the seam before rendering,
so unobserved sibling sections survive and publish first. An unparsable
on-disk document fails the write loud instead of being overwritten.
- The initial load raced the watcher's own setup: a change written between
that read and the watcher becoming active never fired an event. The
watcher's ready signal now queues one reconcile, closing the gap.
- Two processes sharing a harness home rendered from independent caches,
last writer winning. Writes now hold a wx-created <file>.lock sibling
around the read-render-rename cycle with bounded backoff, a crashed-
holder stale takeover, and a deadline failure; readers stay lock-free
because the rename commit is atomic.
- renderYaml replaced the whole namespace node, dropping every comment
inside the section. The next section now lands as a leaf-level diff
(set changed values, delete removed keys), so comments, anchors, and
formatting survive on every untouched node and on the key of every
changed pair; arrays still replace wholesale when unequal.
Review round three found four seam defects:
- A watch() disposer only removed the observer from the set; an invocation
already chained onto the watcher tail still ran after disposal. Watchers
now carry an active flag checked when a queued invocation would start,
and the service dispose drain awaits started invocations (pendingTails)
beside the write queues, so disposal is quiescent.
- The settings/updated manual fan-out caught only synchronous throws; an
async listener rejection escaped as an unhandled rejection. Thenable
returns are now contained through the shared listener diagnostic, and
the event contract documents that the INVARIANT rethrow serves
synchronous listeners only.
- structuredClone admitted Dates, Maps, BigInts, and cycles that YAML/JSON
storage silently distorts on reload (a Date lands as a timestamp string,
a Map as a plain map, a BigInt as a number). The write snapshot is now a
single-pass cloneJsonShaped walk that rejects non-JSON values with their
path before anything persists.
- mergeLayers' per-entry undefined guard became dead code once the clone
strips undefined entries at the boundary; removed, with the sparse-patch
contract restated at its enforcement point.
Both files fit their ceilings on each parent; the merge union of this
branch's settings rows with master's typert row and source-launch rewrite
overflows by 6 and 2 words. Every added row is a fixed-format layout or
package-table entry with nothing to relocate, so the ceilings move to the
union size.
The seat's height publisher needs a ResizeObserver stub in every spec that
renders ConversationRoot (jsdom has none), and the two branch-tail StatsLine
assertions move to the grouped detail-row output.
Stats line moves into the InputBar's new footer slot (sharing the card's
width column) and expands to the design's grouped detail row: turns/steps,
LLM and tool wall time, cache hit, and input/output token split, all
derived client-side from the snapshot. The composer stack owns one 8px
rhythm, the seat fades the transcript through a fixed 36px gradient band,
back-to-bottom follows a live --dsh-composer-height, and goal/todo strips
share one 752px tip-fill column.
Each package ships its zh/en dictionaries as satisfies-typed pairs (zh is
the key-set source of truth; en is checked complete against it), merges its
namespace into LocaleNamespaceMap, and declares locale: NS at register —
components read the framework-injected typed t seat instead of a
hand-carried inject member. Overlapping verbatim words (retry, submit,
submitting) drop out of package dictionaries in favor of the shared common
vocabulary; the question composer stores validation feedback as dictionary
keys so shown feedback follows a locale switch.
