Delete kill(signal?) from SubprocessHandle: consumers stop a process only
through terminate()'s tree-scoped SIGTERM→graceMs→SIGKILL escalation
(idempotent, also driven by the spec's abort signal, a no-op once the tree
is gone). The single-signal verb had exactly one consumer family —
lsp-local — and what it bought there was a private re-implementation of
the same escalation. The internal kill closure stays in spawn.ts as the
dispose ladder's tier primitive; terminate() now routes through it too.
lsp-local collapses onto the seam's escalation:
- LspConnection replaces its terminate()/kill() pair with one terminate()
that delegates to handle.terminate(). Behavior change: the
framing-failure path terminates instead of instant SIGKILL, so a
misbehaving server now gets SIGTERM plus the killGraceMs window to
flush before SIGKILL.
- ConnectionSpec.pipeDrainGraceMs becomes killGraceMs: one grace, the
spawn spec's graceMs, drives both the escalation window and post-exit
pipe draining (the provider already passed killGraceMs for it).
- LspInstance.forceTerminate() drops its hand-rolled bounded first wait
(LSP_KILL_GRACE) and escalateProcessTree (deleted with its export and
unit test): the seam's escalation already commits to SIGKILL after
killGraceMs, so only the unbounded quiescence awaits stay load-bearing.
Tests: kill()-shaped spawn specs become terminate()-shaped or fold into
the terminate() suites (group-wide delivery; the settled no-op case was
already pinned by 'terminate() after the tree died'); tree-survivor
coverage is intact. A stderr-'inherit' disposition test completes the
stdout/stderr symmetry so the scoped subprocess+lsp coverage gate stands
alone instead of leaning on subagent-acp's cross-package runs.
Docs: SubprocessHandle type-equiv block, seam/impl/group READMEs, and the
consumer-migration Agent Note lose the kill(signal?) vocabulary (zh pairs
re-recorded); cordis api/services catalogs regenerated.
SubprocessHandle loses dispose(graces) and SubprocessDisposeGraces: the
stdin-EOF→SIGTERM→SIGKILL sequence is teardown POLICY encoding one
consumer's cooperation shape, not process vocabulary — the seam keeps
kill/terminate/waitForExit, and waitForExit(signal?) is the quiescence
probe a consumer ladder needs. dsh-subagent-acp owns disposeAcpChild()
over those public verbs (tier tests move into its suite; a never-exits
stub pins the fail-loud path); dsh-subprocess-local sheds the ladder,
its deadline import, and the dsh-timeout dependency. Every future
backend now owes four verbs and no teardown policy. New bilingual
ladder-ownership Agent Note records the decision; catalogs regenerated.
Current-state fixes: two test comments still named the pre-rename
spawnProcess; two narrated history ('the old whole-chunk drop', 'no
longer kills backend work') instead of the pinned contract; and the
packages/README row said process-group where the seam's own vocabulary
is process-tree (en+zh, pair re-recorded).
(A1) terminate()/dispose()/service teardown keyed on direct-child settlement
could leak a TERM-trapping descendant that outlived the leader (Codex
reproduced it with a disowned trap-SIGTERM helper). kill()/terminate() now
gate on tree liveness instead of outcome settlement; the SIGKILL escalation
timer survives settle (unref'd, re-probing the tree); dispose's tier
quiescence is whole-tree exit via a bounded waitForExit; the service's live
set releases handles only when their tree is gone, and its teardown awaits
tree exit. Three new suites pin the survivor scenarios end to end
(terminate, dispose, service teardown).
(A2) the escalation branch is now real tested behavior — its ignore is gone;
the one remaining signalTree guard ignore states why it is unreachable
through the handle verbs.
(A3) docs contradictions fixed: the impl README's stale POSIX-only bullet
now states the contained best-effort Windows tree story; the lsp-local
README no longer claims taskkill failures stay visible (containment + the
tree-liveness wait is the actual contract); the architecture tables (en+zh)
list all three consumer families.
(B1) OutputCollector keeps a byte-exact tail across uneven chunk boundaries
(trim the head chunk instead of dropping it whole) — the LSP diagnostic-tail
contract; pinned by a cross-chunk test.
(B2) the subagent-acp coverage ignore is narrowed to exactly the
never-settling success arm.
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.
Review direction (tianyicui, PR #660): make the interface closer to Node's
API so the other process-running places can adopt it. The spec gains
per-stream stdio dispositions — 'pipe' (raw Readable/Writable for protocol
streams), 'inherit' (diagnostics to the parent), and collect mode ({maxBytes,
spill?} — the old bounded tail-keep shape, now with spill optional for
diagnostic tails). SubprocessOutcome carries exit facts only; collected
output stays readable through handle.collected after settlement (spill fds
are sealed at the settle boundary). The handle grows Node-style kill(signal)
(single signal, tree-scoped, no-op after settlement), terminate() (the
SIGTERM→grace→SIGKILL escalation, also driven by the spec signal),
waitForExit() (tree liveness, not just the direct child), and dispose()
(the cooperative stdin-EOF→SIGTERM→SIGKILL ladder from subagent-subprocess,
graces caller-supplied). Tree semantics are platform-correct: POSIX detached
groups with direct-child fallback; Windows taskkill /T with an injectable
runner. scrubbedParentEnv/SENSITIVE_ENV_PATTERN move to the seam as the one
shared scrub definition.
bash-local maps its config onto collect modes and batch stdin and reads
results through the collected readers; its kill() maps to terminate() so
task_kill keeps escalation semantics.
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).
