`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.
- resolve.ts: gate the display branch on linux (the native backend drives
exactly darwin/win32/linux) and require a zenity/kdialog binary on PATH,
probed once at boot (new probe.ts, injected predicate for tests); type
bindHost as the webserver schema's closed union.
- index.ts: the disposer now joins the removed entry's fiber teardown so
unloading the chooser settles only after the backend quiesced; export
BACKEND_PACKAGES as the runtime-string source of truth.
- verify-cordis-config: a composition mounting -auto must declare both
backends as dependencies (negative-tested), since keyless Linux CI only
ever resolves browse and would hide a dropped -native dep.
- apps/web scaffold: pin -browse via disable+insert (goldens are
interaction-specific); fix the stale workspace-flow comment.
- docs/module-graph.md regenerated; README + Agent Note document the
ssh -L shape, the PATH-only probe, and the new gate (zh pairs re-paired).
- composition spec: assert teardown quiescence without a loader await,
cover external entry removal, and await the loader's self-dispose
disabled-persist so it cannot race temp-dir teardown.
The terminal and history pagination both treated the model-visible surface as
the human transcript. A landed compaction replacement therefore erased the
conversation it summarized — messages the reader had already seen — and a
model-only replacement copy consumed a page's `maxMessages` quota, which could
also split a compaction's provenance from the replacement citing it.
`dsh-session` now exports the marker split `isAppendSurfaceEvent` /
`isReplacementSurfaceEvent`. The terminal replays append-origin surface events,
keeps a shadowed step's tool cards paired through its append-origin assistant
message, and renders one dim marker where a compaction landed; the checkpoint is
recognized through the compaction seam's `isCompactCheckpointSource` contract,
not the shape of the replacement. `session.history` counts only append-origin
human messages. Everything model-facing keeps reading `session.surface`.
Register a global `/feedback` command so a user can record a remark about the
session without spending a model turn. `/feedback <text>` acknowledges; empty
or whitespace-only input returns a usage error.
The plugin appends no session event of its own. `dsh-commands` already writes
a `command/run` / `command/done` pair for every dispatched command, carrying
the verbatim text and the settled outcome, and both records are log-only and
non-surface. The feedback is therefore durably in the session log and invisible
to the model without this package touching the log format.
Text is never parsed, so `/feedback /plan felt slow` records that literal
content. Nothing consumes the records; capture is deliberately inert.
New group `packages/feedback/` — no existing group owns feedback capture. Its
row raises the packages/README.md word ceiling by 10, which had no headroom;
one redundant sentence there was removed to offset most of the cost.
Union resolutions throughout — the fixture serves both the goal and plan
projection units (catalog gains /goal beside /plan; the retired
goal-fixture sample command yields to the real goal mirror), the mux
baseline spec expects all four unit frames, and the tsconfig paths /
Model Experience allowlist carry both domains' outlets.
A jsdom slot test runtime for feature specs: a real Cordis Context, the
production SlotsService and web-react renderer, and typed session/workspace
doubles (TestSessions implements ISessions with FixtureSession sessions;
TestWorkspaces implements IWorkspaces), so the compiler flags fixture drift
when a production face changes. Fixtures feed plain data: list rows,
conversation snapshots, and ISession-typed behavior stubs; provide-bundle
materialization runs the shared SessionProvideChannel.
DOM snapshot support: declare()/renderSlot() mount a single slot inside a
data-slot wrapper for local .snap capture, and a snapshot serializer folds
CSS-module class hashes to their semantic locals and collapses svg internals
to a content fingerprint. The typed provide() constrains declared-service
fakes to Partial of the service's outward face.
- Regenerate the cordis/config catalogs, doc graphs, and module graph for
the four newly mounted plugins and the goal projection key.
- ui-goal README pair (Model Experience indirect + Known Limitations) with
its i18n record; sentence-allowlist entry for the indirect form.
- knip workspace entry for ui-goal (tsx test pattern).
- type-equiv manifest follows the seven host-coupled goal symbols to
domain.ts.
- The web-slash-command-dispatch note documents the dropped prompt
interception and leaves with it; the goal-bar note's code paths follow the
component into ui-goal (pairing re-recorded).
Static: the cache package.json files array matches the workspace
constraint shape, the unused dsh-storage-json devDependency is dropped
(tests run on the memory backend), and docs/module-graph.md is
regenerated for the new package edge.
Coverage: two unreachable branches deleted rather than tested —
coldSnapshot's floor-0 tail reuse (a baseSeq-0 restore never throws and
an unrelated record still carries a usable watermark) and flushSoft's
non-mandatory clean-skip (throttle triggers only fire dirty). New tests
close the real gaps: write() on a never-dirty session and the non-JSON
unit-state rejection, plugin disposal clearing armed interval timers,
cachedSnapshot's all-version-mismatched and cwd-identity arms, the
zero-units empty-log cut, the coordinator seek-hook ladder (suffix /
not-found / plain failure / abort-reason relay), and the superseded-
retirement race proving forget()'s exact-entry guard.
directory-picker-browse becomes dual-face: its browser half fills
ui-workspace's two directory-flow holes with the Select Workspace Directory
dialog (figma Harness 813-23126 family — Miller two-column view, breadcrumb
with click-to-edit path zone, nested New-folder dialog), driving the node
half's host.listDirectory/host.createDirectory and owning its locale
namespace (directory-browser, zh default / en). The dialog moves here from
ui-workspace wholesale — the trigger surfaces keep only the flow-hole owner
conversation.
apps/cli flips its one directory-picker row -native -> -browse, swapping the
host backend and the client interaction together; picking now works for
remote deployments out of the box. The keyless workspace-flow snapshot boots
the browse bundle and drives menu -> dialog -> Documents -> project -> Open
against the fixture tree.
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.
Regenerate the cordis/config/persistence catalogs and the module graph for
the ui-plan package and the plan projection unit; add the ui-plan Chinese
README and the Model Experience indirect sentence (allowlisted: the control
dispatches /plan lines, dsh-plan-mode owns the model surface); carry the
QuestionComposer Markdown/scroll improvements into the Chinese ui-question
README; re-record the three touched translation pairs.
Add @deepseek-ai/dsh-tmux-context: an opt-in per-turn context plugin that
reads which tmux session/window/pane this agent process runs in (plus the
window layout tree) via the ctx.bash seam, and injects it as one durable,
source-attributed user/message when the location changes.
- Pull on the first step of each turn; no tmux hook or background process.
- Detect a real pane by tty, not $TMUX_PANE alone: a terminal launched from
a tmux shell inherits $TMUX/$TMUX_PANE from that ancestor, so the command
also matches the pane's #{pane_tty} against this process's controlling
terminal and emits fields only on a match.
- No-op outside a real pane, without a bash executor, or on a malformed
reading.
- Own location and layout only: no pane sizes, no sibling-pane scraping.
- Unit tests at 100% per-file coverage, plus a keyless Loader e2e with a
mock bash provider so it replays without tmux.
- Agent Note: 2026-07-27-tmux-location-context.
master's toolcall-open extracted runNativeCommand inside apiproxy for the
openPath opener while the picker seam had moved the native chooser (its other
consumer) into directory-picker-native; after the merge the two packages each
carried a verbatim copy. The runner now lives in packages/util/native-command
(zero-dependency library, per the util-group contract) and both native
integrations depend on it.
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:
