Implement the continuable background subagents RFC: a durable child
session with a series of Task-backed activations, each disposing its
run before the Task settles.
- dsh-subagent: rename SubagentRun.sendMessage to strict steer, drop
run-level resume, add SubagentProvider.resume dispatch via
SubagentService.resume, the continuation start field, and the
versioned model-hidden subagent/descriptor session event.
- dsh-subagent-inprocess/-spawn/-fork: publish the control-allocated
child id, append the descriptor inside the initial turn, implement
cold resume from the child's own transcript under the live parent
scope, and strict running-only steer.
- dsh-subagent-control (new): SubagentControlService owning stable
child ids, descriptor snapshot/fold/authorization, Task-backed
activation with settle-then-dispose ordering, the process-local
active-run association, and steer-or-resume sendMessage routing.
- dsh-tool-subagent: background route branches on the provider's
resume capability (continuable via the control service; one-shot
task for ACP), returning both child and task ids.
- dsh-tool-subagent-control (new): the globally named send_message
tool rendering steered/started routes.
Keyless coverage spans Task ownership and disposal ordering, running
delivery, cold follow-up, descriptor rejection and rollback, known-id
reconstruction, kill during lookup, admission races, and a new
subagent-continuable ACP snapshot scenario.
`dsh` shipped two config trees that were 43 rows the same: apps/cli/cordis.yml
composed web as 74 flat rows, while the TUI booted examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml
whose single `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tui-demo` row mounted twelve plugins behind a
twenty-key pass-through Config. Neither file was what its location claimed —
apps/cli hardcoded the "example" as the product default and the "demo" bundle
was the application — and every capability change had to be made twice.
- apps/cli/base.cordis.yml holds the 43 shared rows; tui.cordis.yml and
web.cordis.yml are patch lists stating only what differs per surface
- overlays apply as SIBLING patch lists at one include level, because include
patches never cross an include boundary. Precedence: base < surface <
(--config | personal ~/.dsh/config.yaml) < launcher flag/profile patches
- `--config` now applies an overlay INSTEAD OF the personal one, so a demo or
test tree never inherits the user's route; new `--config-replace` boots a file
as the entire tree (the old `--config` behaviour). Both survive /resume
- vendor/include: index each `insert`ed row as it is added so a later patch can
configure or disable it. Upstream built the id index once before the patch
loop, leaving every surface-only row — the whole TUI front door — silently
unpatchable from user config. Logged as local modification 8
- session identity moves to dsh-agent-loop's CONFIGURED_AGENT_IDENTITIES_KEY;
dsh-tui's MAIN_SESSION_ID_KEY is deleted (only the bundle read it)
- delete examples/tui-agent, examples/cordis-agent, packages/examples/tui-demo;
TUI tests → apps/cli/tests, cordis e2e → packages/cordis/tool-cordis/tests,
examples/code-mode survives as an overlay leaf
- `dsh web` gains --config, threaded into AppCLIEntry as an extra overlay
Three latent defects surfaced and are fixed here: the TUI captured the optional
sessionQuery service once at construction and could permanently disable /resume
when it won the mount race; the session-store root silently reverted to a
project-local ./.sessions; --config-replace was dropped by the resume handoff.
Verified by booting each tree through the real Loader (TUI 55 entries, web 75,
zero unsettled) rather than reading YAML. All eight terminal snapshots replay
byte-identically; 14/14 PTY smoke, 112/112 snapshots, 25/25 doc-sync, hygiene
and lint clean.
New credentials data-structure page (type-equiv manifested), group README,
rewritten llm-deepseek/llm-pi-ai READMEs (dynamic configuration, dict
profiles, credential chain), capability-seams/service-role registration,
Agent Note (bilingual), demo compositions mounting settings-local +
credentials-local with no inline key plumbing, installSettingsSection
consumer helper on the settings seam (deduplicating both adapters' wiring),
jscpd symmetry markers for the provider twins, runtime-closure additions for
python/sdk-runtime, and doc-budget ceilings AGENTS.md 1750→1755 /
packages/README.md 850→865 for the structural one-line group rows.
Conflicts were the parallel-edit set: packages/README group table (kept
master's session-title wording, re-added the settings row condensed),
doc-budgets AGENTS.md ceiling (took master's 1750), and regenerated
graph/catalog docs plus re-recorded translation pairs. packages/README.md
ceiling 845 -> 850: the table legitimately gained one row for the new
settings group and the row is already minimal.
Two-package capability family mirroring session-persistence/:
- dsh-settings: abstract Settings service — namespace registry with
caller-fiber effect registrations, layered resolution (schema defaults
< composition base < user document), schemastery validation,
per-namespace deep-equal commit detection, and the settings/updated
event. Boot/registration validation fails loud; provider publishes
keep last-good per namespace.
- dsh-settings-local: settings.yaml/.json provider — resolveSpec
defaulting to $DSH_HOME/settings.yaml, chokidar hot reload,
content-equality self-write suppression, atomic 0600 tmp+rename
writes, comment-preserving YAML namespace patching.
Consumers register inside ctx.inject(['settings'], …), so every
composition works unchanged without a mounted provider. Real Loader +
Include composition test proves cordis.yml boot and external-edit hot
propagation; HMR disposal test proves registry cleanup. Both packages
hold per-file 100% coverage.
Doc budgets rise 1705→1710 (AGENTS.md) and 835→845 (packages/README.md):
one structural line per file for the new package group.
Agent Note: .agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-user-settings-seam.md
- tsconfig.base.json still aliased the removed directory-picker-dialog and
offered no mapping for -native: on a clean tree, package-name imports and
source launches fell through to a missing lib/ until a build ran.
- The seam note (and the generated seam prose) no longer describe the
browse browser half as shipped here: it lands in the stacked follow-up,
and a -browse composition meanwhile shows the documented empty-hole
default (ds-review-bot).
gen-cordis-catalog/api, config and persistence catalogs, and doc graphs
regenerated over the new sessionProjectionCache service and the registry's
checkpoint faces. Classifications: ProjectionCheckpoint joins the type-link
exemptions (owned by the projection package source), Partial joins the
foundation names, the cache service gets its capability-seam role row, and
the package takes the one-sentence Model Experience contract (host-side
read-model accelerator, no model surface).
ui-workspace's two trigger surfaces each declare a single-kind directory-flow
hole (conversation.hero.workspace.directoryFlow / sidebar.workspaces.directoryFlow,
same owner contract) and keep only the trigger and the adoption: the Open-local-
folder entry renders while the surface's hole is occupied, and the occupant
reports one picked path per open through the hole's owner conversation
(open/busy/onPicked/onCancel/onError).
directory-picker-native becomes dual-face: its browser half fills both holes
with a renderless occupant driving host.pickDirectory, so the cordis.yml row
that mounts the backend also composes the client interaction — a mismatch is
impossible and a second flow package fails at client load.
With composition wiring both sides, the host.describe.directoryPicker
advertisement and the client's kind branching lose their last consumer:
the field, WorkspacesService.directoryPickerKind(), the DirectoryPickerKind
wire type, and the picker's per-open describe read are deleted. The connection
fixture now serves a deterministic pickDirectory path so the keyless snapshot
drives the full pick-then-adopt flow. ui-workspace's hand-rolled declaration
deferral is replaced by the deferRegistration helper it duplicated.
The browse interaction also presents a dialog (the in-app modal), so 'dialog'
failed to discriminate the two capability kinds; 'native' names where the
chooser runs. Package directory-picker-dialog -> directory-picker-native, kind
'dialog' -> 'native', with every seam/gateway/client/doc reference updated and
the seam Agent Note's naming rationale rewritten to match.
The web GUI's folder picking was hardwired to one interaction: a native
OS chooser compiled into the gateway, unusable for remote deployments
and swappable only by editing apiproxy source.
Directory picking becomes a three-package capability seam in
packages/host: ctx.directoryPicker returns a discriminated capability —
dialog (the extracted native chooser; host-display only) or browse
(new: one-level listing + child creation over Node stdlib, hidden flags
host-stamped, symlinks followed, ancestry crumbs; remote-capable). The
gateway injects the seam, advertises the kind via
host.describe.directoryPicker, serves host.listDirectory /
host.createDirectory under browse, and answers
directory-picker-unavailable across kinds. cordis.yml is the swap
point; apps/cli keeps dialog mounted, so behavior is unchanged until
the in-app browser PR flips the default. The connection fixture serves
a deterministic browse tree; WorkspacesService gains the browse calls
the browser UI will drive. Decision record:
.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-directory-picker-capability-seam.md
gen-cordis-catalog type-link rows for the ProjectionDefinition surface and
CommandExecution; a sessionProjections service-role row for gen-doc-graphs;
regenerated module graph, persistence/config/cordis catalogs and api-catalog;
packages/README rows condensed back under the word ceiling; the RFC's sketch
fences marked ignore-check on both language sides (pairing re-recorded).
Resolutions: regenerate the conflicted generated docs (cordis services
catalog, event-producer-consumer, module-graph); take master's
packages/README pair and re-insert the telemetry row on both sides;
re-record the README and session-doc translation pairs.
Resolutions: regenerate docs/capability-seams.md (the only conflict);
master widened the bilingual pairing scope to package READMEs, so this
merge adds the Chinese counterparts and i18n records for the three
telemetry READMEs and patches packages/README.zh.md with the telemetry
group row.
Review direction (tianyicui, PR #660): in a stacked PR, change all other
process-running places to use the new service.
- lsp-local: LspConnection spawns through ctx.subprocess (piped protocol
streams + a no-spill collected stderr tail); its private process-tree
helpers (POSIX group signalling, Windows taskkill, liveness polling) are
deleted in favor of the seam's handle verbs, and its buildChildEnv now
rides scrubbedParentEnv (LSP children also stop inheriting stale DSH_*).
The plugin injects 'subprocess'; compositions/tests mount
dsh-subprocess-local.
- subagent-acp: the ACP child spawns through the seam (piped ndjson streams,
inherited stderr); spawn failure surfaces through done-rejection into the
same startup race; disposal is handle.dispose with the plugin's configured
graces. dsh-subagent-subprocess is DELETED — its dispose ladder and scrub
are the seam's, and the isolated-config-dir helper had no consumer.
- mcp-client, pty-local, sdk-helper: adopt scrubbedParentEnv as the one
scrub definition (their spawns stay put by ownership: the MCP SDK and
node-pty own those calls; the SDK wizard runs outside any composition).
- Coverage: per-file 100% over every touched src file, with each v8 ignore
carrying a platform or contract reason; new suites cover stdio
dispositions, the dispose ladder tiers, injected-win32 tree semantics,
waitForExit, settled-kill/terminate no-ops, and spawn-failure disposal.
- Docs: consumer-migration Agent Note (en; zh follows in this PR), seam note
updated in place, subprocess.md rewritten for the reshaped vocabulary
(type-equiv re-registered), READMEs and SERVICE_ROLES updated, taskkill
added to knip ignoreBinaries.
Codex re-review (A): AGENTS.md layout tree, the architecture capability
tables (en+zh), the seam Agent Note's group-name sentence (en+zh), and the
SERVICE_ROLES entry still carried process/-era labels; regenerated the doc
graphs and config catalog from the corrected inputs.
Review feedback (tianyicui): 'process' is a poor service name. The family is
now packages/subprocess/ — @deepseek-ai/dsh-subprocess (ctx.subprocess,
abstract SubprocessService, Subprocess* vocabulary) and
@deepseek-ai/dsh-subprocess-local (LocalSubprocessService) — renamed
throughout code, compositions, docs (en+zh, pairs re-recorded), catalogs,
and gates. 'subprocess' is the precise term for managed OS children (the
Python-stdlib sense), avoids colliding with Node's global process object,
and reads as one system beside dsh-subagent-subprocess.
ds-review-bot findings addressed:
- kill() on a settled handle is now a no-op (no signal to a possibly-reused
pgid, no referenced grace timer delaying exit); pinned by a spy test.
- The moved DshEnvironmentKey/DshEnvironment/CollectedOutput types get
drift-checked type-equiv blocks on the new subprocess.md page, restoring
their manifest registration.
- subprocess.md is registered in the core.md sub-page index (en+zh).
New process/ capability family: @deepseek-ai/dsh-process owns ctx.processes —
abstract ProcessManager.spawn(spec) over a fully-explicit ProcessSpawnSpec —
plus the shared DSH_* managed-environment and CollectedOutput vocabulary;
@deepseek-ai/dsh-process-local carries the former bash-local run.ts plumbing
(detached groups, tail-keep spill-backed output, credential scrub, kill
escalation, kill-and-join disposal) with no config of its own.
dsh-bash-local becomes a consumer: it keeps command defaulting, the fused
deadline timedOut/aborted classification, the model-friendly terminal env
(now merged through the ordinary env channel), and the [stderr]-marked
background read merge, and spawns through ctx.processes. Background-process
lifetime moves to the manager, so an executor reload no longer kills live
background work; a background spawn failure is injected once into the read
path instead of being buffered as fake stderr. dsh-bash re-exports the moved
vocabulary so bash consumers keep one import root; dsh-bash-sandbox only
redeclares the inherited inject.
Every composition loading a bash executor now loads dsh-process-local (CLI,
examples, python bundled runtime, create-sdk bash feature, inline test
configs).
The tasks/ family now matches the capability-seam shape: @deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks
keeps the abstract TaskService (ctx.tasks contract, vocabulary types, snapshot
invariant companion) and the new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks-local carries the
process-local registry (LocalTaskService: in-memory store, settlement,
owner-cleanup effects, teardown, TASK_WAIT_TIMEOUT). Compositions and test
harnesses now load dsh-tasks-local; producers, TaskKindMap merges, and
dsh-tool-tasks keep importing the seam only.
Producer misconfiguration diagnostics name dsh-tasks-local because loading the
implementation is the fix. The registry behavior suite moves to tasks-local;
the seam keeps a stub-subclass registration test and the probe-based invariant
suite.
Resolutions: keep both sides where master's new storage/workspace group
registrations sit adjacent to the telemetry ones (gen-doc-graphs
SERVICE_ROLES/GROUP_ORDER, tsconfig.base.json wildcards,
packages/README.md rows); regenerate the graph docs; condense four
packages/README.md rows back under the 790-word ceiling.
The bare 'domain' name was too generic for a published package. The
directory moves to packages/storage/storage-domain, the package becomes
@deepseek-ai/dsh-storage-domain, and the plugin/invariant names follow;
the ctx surface (ctx.storage.domain), the domain/changed event, and all
runtime behavior are unchanged. References, catalogs, graphs, and the
bilingual design note move together.
- Per-file 100% coverage across the five new packages (invariant
companion suites, failure-injection negatives, lifecycle and
malformed-medium branches).
- Canonical README Model Experience / Known Limitations sections; new
storage/ and workspace/ group READMEs; packages/README.md rows (budget
ceiling raised 760 → 790 for the two new groups).
- Cordis catalog/type-link registrations, service-role classification,
and regenerated catalogs/graphs for the new services and events.
- Agent Note: English body + i18n pairing record; design-sketch fences
opted out of doc-typecheck as ignore-check.
- Two exactOptionalPropertyTypes/discriminant fixes in new tests.
doc-sync (24 gates), typecheck, hygiene, and the five-package suite
(92 tests) all pass.
Lint (bridge JSDoc params, service-class export shape, async invariant
listener form), regenerated doc catalogs/graphs with role classifications
for httpServer and clientModuleHost, catalog type-link exemptions for the
route/graph contracts, knip alignment (apps/cli composes via cordis.yml so
its yml-named deps are runtime edges knip cannot see; webserver's deleted
test dir), the zh side of the loading-model note brought along with its
pairing records, and coverage exclusions for the new web-transport halves
under the GUI test-lane TODO (real-composition harnesses land with that
lane).
Revive the reviewed session-telemetry packages from the closed
session-telemetry-otlp-rfc branch (PR #222/#231) on current master, renamed
to @deepseek-ai/dsh-session-telemetry{,-otel} (the SDK component-telemetry
package holds the dsh-telemetry name).
Delta over the branch version: every record now passes a telemetry/redact
waterfall between projection and emit() — the innermost next() applies a
non-configurable conservative credential-shape rule set, listeners stack
stricter rules, a throwing rule withholds the record fail-closed, and the
canonical log is never rewritten. This answers the export-side concern that
closed PR #222; the boundary axiom (our aspect ends at emit(); delivery is
the reporting SDK's) is unchanged, and the runtime-telemetry RFC's outbox /
readCommitted lane is recorded as deferred in the Agent Note.
Covered by seam/redact/OTel-wire unit tiers (100% per-file) and a keyless
Loader-composition e2e that boots the examples fixture against a mock OTLP
collector and pins redaction on the wire plus the untouched canonical log.
