Add docs/tool-catalog/tools.md, a generated reference of every model-facing
tool a shipped `packages/*/tool-*` plugin contributes (name, description,
JSON-Schema parameters) — the third generated catalog alongside the cordis
events/services and core-data-structures catalogs.
Unlike the cordis catalog (a pure source-AST pass), this generator BOOTS each
tool plugin on a real cordis Context and reads `ctx.tools.schemas()`, because a
tool schema is not statically knowable: `todo_write` builds its enum with a
runtime spread, descriptions are string-concatenated, `subagent`'s name is
config-driven, and MCP tools register raw JSON Schema without `defineTool`. A
completeness guard globs the on-disk `tool-*` packages and fails if any is
absent from the boot manifest, restoring the "nothing silently omitted"
property booting would otherwise lose. `verify-tool-catalog` runs inside
`doc-sync`, so the artifact cannot drift.
The boot-over-AST decision and the discovered-inventory / hand-written-recipe
split are recorded in a process RFC.
- ACP/SSE: show full English name in parens on first occurrence
- fixture: drop 测试夹具 gloss, keep descriptive note

Address @tianyicui's minor-revision review on PR #110:
- Make every BasicCompactConfig knob required except `auto` (defaults
true): there is no data yet to justify default thresholds/budgets, so
a consumer states each value explicitly. Drop the DEFAULTS export and
the constructor's `= {}` default; example cordis.yml, the compaction
e2e, the README, and every test construction site now pass a complete
config (tests route through a `cfg()` helper).
- Add a TODO on estimateContentTokens: char/4 is coarse; replace with a
real tokenizer or post-response usage feedback in a follow-up.
- Add a TODO on the agent/pre-step `fullSystemPrompt` param flagging it
as a smell on a generic per-step seam (compaction is its sole
consumer); a `//` line comment so it stays out of the generated catalog.
The Events intro carried "The harness declares N events across M scopes."
and the Services intro "The N `ctx.<key>` services the harness provides."
Both embed counts the generator recomputes from source, so every branch
that adds an event or service rewrites that one line — a guaranteed merge
conflict against any sibling branch that also touched the catalog, for
prose that adds nothing a reader can't get by scanning the page.
Remove the count clauses from the generator's render() and regenerate the
catalog. The freshness gate (verify-cordis-catalog) stays green.
Use maxTokens as the provider generation cap and remove the confusing stored-summary max config.
Strip reasoning blocks before storing compaction summaries, reject non-shrinking summaries, and retry bounded re-compaction when the surface remains over threshold.
Add config validation for numeric and type-shaped knobs plus unit and real-API e2e coverage for reasoning-capable summarization.
Honor cancellation and disposal around async pre-step setup before the loop can open a step or call the model.
Route compaction summarization through agent/request so router agents can select the model, and remove the stale model argument from agent/pre-step.
Document serial events and the approximate convergence bound, regenerate the Cordis catalog, and add regression coverage for router compaction, HMR cleanup, and assembly/pre-step interruption.
Clarity-first revisions from review:
- keep English for ambiguous terms (Cordis, fork, harness, schema, spawn,
manifest, transcript, compaction, dispose)
- first-use glosses for CLI, Function Calling, HMR, fiber
- inference/reasoning carry the English in parens to disambiguate
- memory distinguishes 记忆 (agent memory) vs 内存 (resource usage)
- plugin -> 插件; add a separate mod -> 模组 row
- 中英搭配 note on translated terms (wire format, adapter contract)
Add @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-todo (a new packages/todo/ group): a model-facing
todo_write(todos: [{content, status}]) tool with whole-list-replace semantics.
Each call appends the full list as a todo/write event to the calling agent's
session log; the current list is the most recent such event (last-write-wins).
Single-owner — a non-agent caller is rejected. Beyond the schema's
type/required/enum checks, execute rejects empty/duplicate content and more than
one in_progress task, narrowing the loosely-typed args into a real TodoItem[].
Both UIs render off the existing session/event: the stdio UI prints a glyphed
checklist; the ACP bridge maps the list to a `plan` sessionUpdate (todosToPlan
synthesizes the priority ACP requires; status maps 1:1). Wired into the
coding-agent, acp-agent, and snapshot example configs with a system-prompt nudge.
Tests: unit (schema, validation, append/replace, no-agent rejection, presentCall,
HMR-safety, Loader export-shape guard), full-loop integration through the agent
loop, the ACP todosToPlan mapping + stream-update arm, the stdio render arm, and
a session/load replay that re-emits the plan. New-group TS wiring added to
tsconfig.base/json/build. RFC + a doc-inventory sweep (architecture, packages
README, AGENTS layout, cookbook group list, example READMEs) ship with it.
The todo-plan ACP snapshot scenario is recorded separately (needs an API key).
Codex Phase 1 review: the event JSDoc described Phase 2 consumers (the
todo_write tool, stdio printing, ACP plan mapping) as current state, and put an
@mode tag on a SessionEventMap member. @mode is for first-class Cordis
`interface Events` entries the catalog generator reads — this event rides the
existing session/event emit and has no catalog row, so the tag was wrong.
Trim the JSDoc to the event's own contract (snapshot data shape,
last-write-wins, not-a-surface-event) and drop @mode; phrase TodoItem in terms
of its own purpose rather than a not-yet-present tool.
Add the TodoItem type and a todo/write SessionEventMap variant carrying the
whole todo list as a snapshot (last-write-wins on replay). It is NOT a
SurfaceEventType: it produces no LLM message and never reaches
deriveMessages(), so it carries no surfaceOp and stays off the surface — it is
durable, replayable UI state that rides the existing session/event emit.
Tests cover the snapshot-clone-on-append contract, last-write-wins, the
not-on-surface guarantee, and a seeded replay round-trip. Docs: session.md
gains the TodoItem type-equiv block + the event member; core.md's variant count
goes to twelve; the type-equiv manifest gains TodoItem.
The compaction e2e never exercised compaction: its window/fixture combo
(contextWindow 8000, thresholdRatio 0.5 → threshold 4000; four small files)
peaked at ~1389 estimated tokens, so compactIfNeeded declined every pre-step
and compact/start never landed. Shrink the window (contextWindow 2400 →
threshold 1200; retainTokens 500 + summarizationMaxTokens 300 = 800 < 1200,
convergence holds) and grow the fixture to six files so a couple of bash steps
reliably cross the threshold. Verified compaction fires and the suite passes
across repeated real-API runs.
Sync docs left stale by the landed compaction work: list compaction.e2e.ts and
keyless-smoke.e2e.ts in the coding-agent README (and fix the wrong "Both
self-skip" count), add compaction to the examples with-key inventory, and
replace the hypothetical compaction/marker / "future plugin" naming in the
session README, session types JSDoc, and the core-data-structures catalog with
the real compact/start, compact/summary, compact/end events.
Codex round 1 CBR-003: several docs still described compaction as an
`agent/request` waterfall concern, and the implemented compaction RFC
claimed "No changes to dsh-session or dsh-invariants" while the diff
changed both.
- Package READMEs / JSDoc (agent, agent-loop, system-prompt, compact,
compact-basic): compaction now lives on the serial `agent/pre-step`
seam (fired after turn/start, before step/start); the structural guard
is tool-pairing balance (`isToolPairingBalanced`), not step-alignment;
the convergence bound is strict (`>=` rejects).
- architecture.md / core-data-structures/compaction.md: same seam +
predicate + dispatch-mode updates; regenerated cordis catalog.
- Implemented compaction RFC, updated in place to describe shipped
reality: the seam is `agent/pre-step` (@mode serial) fired before
step/start; alignment is surface tool-pairing balance; the convergence
invariant rejects `>=`; and the "no dsh-session/dsh-invariants changes"
claim is corrected — dsh-session gains the tool-pairing predicate and
dsh-invariants drops its `start <= end` replace assertion (a positional
replace makes start > end normal).
Codex round 1 CBR-001: a head-anchored compaction checkpoint was
mis-classified by the log-position step-alignment scan, so a second
auto-compaction over a checkpoint-headed surface silently failed.
Root cause: `isStepAlignedStart/End` scanned the LOG by seq, but a
`replace` op lands a checkpoint at a high log seq whose SURFACE position
is the head — its log neighbours (the open step's assistant/message) are
not its surface neighbours, so the forward scan wrongly reported mid-step.
Fix, per the agreed direction:
- Replace the two log-position predicates with one surface-anchored
helper `isToolPairingBalanced(nodes, events, beforeSeq)` in
`dsh-session` (renamed step-boundary.ts → tool-pairing.ts). A cut is
balanced when no unanswered tool-call precedes it on the surface; a
region is collapsible iff both edges are balanced cuts. The open-tail
and free-node cases fall out of the same counter. It also throws on a
corrupt surface (a tool/result with no matching call).
- Move compaction off the in-step seam to a new "pre-step" seam fired
after turn/start and before step/start, so a compaction's log-only
compact/* records and its replacement node land cleanly OUTSIDE any
step (the honest structure crash-safety relies on). Renamed the event
agent/pre-request → agent/pre-step and switched its dispatch from
parallel → serial (listeners mutate the surface as a side effect;
serial isolates them so concurrent appends can't interleave). Extended
the catalog generator to accept @mode serial.
Regression coverage: a real-loop test driving an auto-compaction asserts
the landed checkpoint is a balanced cut on both sides; unit tests pin the
checkpoint case, the mid-step injection case, multi-call steps, and the
corrupt-surface guard. Proven red on the old log-position logic.
Reform the compaction blueprint so a runaway turn survives and the design
stops drifting across review rounds:
- Drop in-flight-turn protection ("layer 2"). Retention is a uniform tail→head
whole-unit walk; the only structural guard is step-alignment. A single turn
that alone exceeds the window now compacts its own early closed steps instead
of being retained verbatim (the failure mode that motivated this).
- Move auto-compaction off the agent/request waterfall onto a new awaited
agent/pre-request loop seam, fired before history derivation. Compaction
mutates the surface; the loop derives once from the result — no double-derive,
and a listener structurally cannot act on not-yet-derived messages.
- Tighten compactIfNeeded to required (session, system, model, signal).
- Enforce a single-pass convergence invariant in resolveConfig: reject configs
where summarizationMaxTokens + retainTokens exceeds the threshold, so a
compaction can never immediately re-trigger.
- Document the crash vs recoverable failure taxonomy; core session repair stays
compaction-agnostic (a log-only orphaned compact/start is inert).
- Wire dsh-compact-basic into examples/coding-agent and add a with-key
compaction e2e (compaction's first real-world exercise + runaway net).
- Rewrite the RFC to encode the blueprint and move it to implemented/.
The runaway-turn snapshot is a named deferred follow-up: dsh-llm-replay cannot
yet serve the interleaved summarization model call.
Collapses the per-round review churn of the prior compact-basic branch into a
single clean baseline on top of compact-interface, so the upcoming retention
refactor lands as fresh, well-scoped commits rather than stacking on a history
of fixes that are being superseded.
P1: both merge parents shipped SCHEMA_VERSION=3 for different layouts (surface
columns vs seed_length), so an on-disk 3 was ambiguous and wrongly accepted.
Bump to 4 (merged layout) so the version check rejects both sibling v3s.
P2: a surface-eligible event with no surfaceOp lands in the log but vanishes
from deriveMessages() (surface is the sole derivation path). The typed append
overload enforces the marker only when the type arg is a literal; it collapses
to optional when widened to the union (a caller iterating raw events). Guard at
runtime in both append() and the seed constructor — no backward-compat for
surface-less logs. Shared seed fixtures carry surfaceOp explicitly and the
appendLog helper forwards it verbatim (no synthesized default). Exports
isSurfaceEligibleType. Regression tests for all three, each verified to fail
on the unfixed code.
Gates: typecheck, test (1115), snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build, hygiene green.
Reconciles the session-surface work (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs provenance as
the sole derivation path) with master's worktree-subagent series (fork-seed
boundary + out-of-process subagent backends).
Semantic reconciliations beyond the textual auto-merge:
- SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION: both sides bumped 2->3. Merged to a single v3 carrying
BOTH column families — master's seed_length on `sessions` and surface's
source_event_seqs/surface_op on `events`. writeRow + both INSERT sites bind
the full set; the schema doc lists all three added columns as the v2->v3 gap.
- agent-loop runStep request: master's `sessionId: session.id` and surface's
per-append surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs coexist (different regions).
- Fork seed + surface: a fork seeds the child from the parent's LIVE events,
which now carry surfaceOp, so the child's surface rebuilds correctly. Verified
end-to-end — the subagent-fork replay recalls the inherited "SAFFRON" codeword
through the seeded prefix.
- Subagent snapshot fixtures (recorded pre-surface) re-enriched via KEYLESS
deterministic replay: only surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs added onto existing
recorded lines (matched by seq), no recorded value changed. Not re-recorded
against the live API.
Gates: typecheck, test (1112), test:snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build,
hygiene all green.
The seed-boundary change made fork-child replay route correctly but shipped
with no recorded fork scenario — the seedLength slice was exercised only by
llm-replay unit tests and a persistence round-trip, never by the full-transcript
snapshot tier. Add two recorded scenarios that drive a real fork child through
it:
- subagent-fork: parent completes a turn, then forks one child (child fixture
carries a non-zero seedLength, the boundary the replay slice consumes).
- subagent-mixed: parent completes a turn, then delegates once via spawn
(seedLength 0) and once via fork (non-zero seedLength) in one transcript —
the first scenario to drive two subagent backends at once, exercising both
branches of the slice.
Both need a completed turn-1 so the fork seed is a non-empty completed-turn
prefix (a turn-1 fork seeds empty = spawn, which would not exercise the slice).
Removing the slice turns both scenarios red (the fork child receives the
parent's recorded chunks), proving the guard bites.
ACP (out-of-process) subagent replay remains a different shape, still tracked
as TODO(acp-subagent-replay).
A fork subagent seeds its child session with a prefix of the parent's log, and
that seed becomes the child's persisted log — so a fork child's .jsonl begins
with the PARENT's events, including the parent's assistant/chunk events. The
snapshot replay harness derived a child's script from its whole log, which would
replay the parent's recorded responses as the child's model calls. Spawn-only
scenarios never hit it, but a fork snapshot would mis-route silently.
Record the seed boundary and skip the inherited prefix at replay:
- SessionHeader gains an optional `seedLength` (how many leading events were
inherited via a seed), threaded through CreateSessionOptions/CreateAgentOptions
meta and stamped by the fork backend (= seeded-prefix length; absent for spawn).
It is EXPLICIT, never inferred from seed.length: a resume seeds the whole stored
log, so the resume path passes the persisted boundary back.
- Both persistence backends round-trip it: JSONL header line, SQLite seed_length
column. The SQLite table change bumps SCHEMA_VERSION 2->3; per the pre-release
stance the backend rejects an older user_version on open with NO migration.
- llm-replay's parseSessionHeader reads seedLength and loadSessionScripts derives
a child script from events AFTER the boundary. seedLength is 0 for spawn, so
spawn replay is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Closes the routing-correctness gap the per-session snapshot replay RFC under-
stated; a recorded fork scenario remains a future addition but now derives
correctly. RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/testing/2026-06-22-fork-child-replay-seed-boundary.md.
Regression coverage: a fork child fixture whose seeded prefix carries a parent
chunk (derived script must exclude it, proven red without the slice); a seedLength
persistence round-trip through the shared coordinator contract (both backends);
the fork backend stamping it; resume preserving it from the persisted header.
Adds the @deepseek-ai/dsh-compact interface package: the abstract
CompactService (ctx.compact) with compactIfNeeded / compactRegion, the
compact/* session-event types via SessionEventMap declaration merging, and the
capability-seam RFC. Wires the package into the three root tsconfigs and the
cordis catalog. A backend implementation lands separately.
The shared run driver lived inside dsh-subagent-spawn, so the spawn package
carried fork-aware seeding logic and dsh-subagent-fork depended backward on
dsh-subagent-spawn — the two in-process backends were not independent.
Move the driver (startInProcessRun, depthOf, SubagentDepthError,
InProcessRunOptions) into a new pure-library package
@deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-inprocess that registers nothing. spawn and fork now
both depend only on that driver and neither knows about the other; spawn no
longer re-exports it and fork no longer imports from spawn.
Also wire BOTH backends in examples/coding-agent/cordis.yml (config-only): load
dsh-subagent-spawn + dsh-subagent-fork + two dsh-tool-subagent instances with
distinct toolNames (subagent → spawn, subagent_fork → fork), demonstrating that
exposing multiple transports needs no code change.
The first OUT-OF-PROCESS subagent backend, proving the seam generalizes past the
in-process backends. @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-acp runs each child agent in a
spawned subprocess, driven over the Agent Client Protocol as the CLIENT — the
direction-inverted twin of the dsh-acp server bridge. Point the configured
command at the acp-agent example and the harness talks to its own process.
- Fresh process per run: start spawns, runs one ACP session (initialize →
newSession → prompt), dispose kills the subprocess and awaits its exit.
- Minimal client stub: advertises no fs/terminal; accumulates agent_message_chunk
text as the result output; auto-answers session/request_permission by a
configured policy (reject default / allow). No start-time capabilities (an
out-of-process child can't enforce the parent's depth/tool-filter); ignores
request.parent; injects only `subagents`.
- StopReason mapping (end_turn→completed, cancelled→aborted, …); result resolves
error/aborted on a child failure, never rejects (seam contract).
- Security: credential-shaped ambient env vars are scrubbed; the child's own key
is forwarded only via explicit config.env. A spawn-level error (ENOENT) is
captured and raced against the ACP drive so a bad command settles error rather
than crashing the parent.
Testing designed at every tier: keyless integration drives a scripted mock ACP
server subprocess (cancellation incl. the pre-newSession race and a
torn-pipe-after-cancel, permission auto-answer, non-message updates, spawn
failure, HMR, export shape) at 100% coverage; a with-key e2e drives the REAL
acp-agent example process (PONG + real file write, verified on disk) — the
harness driving itself. Snapshot coverage of an ACP child is deferred as
TODO(acp-subagent-replay) (each child is its own process with its own replay).
Stayed on @agentclientprotocol/sdk 0.25.1: the proposed 0.28.x bump only
deprecates the stable ClientSideConnection/AgentSideConnection API this layer
uses (33 sites incl. the server bridge), turning no-deprecated red across code
this PR shouldn't rewrite — that fluent-API migration is its own follow-up. The
backend needs nothing 0.28.x adds.
This completes the subagent seam stack (PR1 interface → PR2 in-process → PR2.5
snapshot infra → PR3 ACP); the seam RFC moves to implemented/, amended.
Reconcile the session-surface feature with master's package reorg and
simplifications:
- Adopt master's folded usage (assistant/message.usage; standalone `usage`
event dropped) and re-attach surface metadata (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs).
- Add surface opts to master's new max-tokens assistant/message append.
- Port surface columns onto the coordinator-refactored SQLite backend at its
new path; drop the dead v1->v2 migration (bump-and-reject, no migration per
pre-release policy).
- Move the session-surface RFC into implemented/architecture/ and refresh its
stale body (no migration, SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION=0, renamed package paths).
- Update the core-data-structures catalog SessionEvent blocks for the two new
surface fields; regenerate the cordis catalog.
- Re-harvest ACP snapshot fixtures (keyless replay) to carry surface metadata.
