vitest.config.ts coverage comments (excessive-tests welcome -> docs/testing.md;
v8-ignore reason rule -> the quality-gates RFC) and the acp bridge.spec
resource-ownership comment -> docs/testing.md. Postmortem 0001's summary now
names packages/AGENTS.md as the export-shape rule's home. Repo-wide sweep from
the root (all file types, vendor/lib excluded) shows every remaining AGENTS.md
citation resolves to a rule that exists where cited.
The definitive sweep (audit every AGENTS.md mention in packages/, docs/,
examples/, scripts/) found thirteen more citations of relocated policy
and two citations of rules that never existed as quoted:
- with-key policy comments (web deepseek/perplexity e2e headers) ->
docs/testing.md; real-impl-over-mock comments (acp harness, load,
stream-update specs) -> docs/testing.md; defensive-pattern quotes
(acp index.ts x3, stream-update) -> docs/defensive-patterns.md.
- md-tier repoints: real-api-e2e RFC, tool-schema-catalog RFC,
postmortem 0001 guardrail row, adding-a-package cookbook,
drop-bash-output-spill-files RFC, acp-subagent-backend RFC phrasing.
- Two false attributions dropped in favor of self-contained reasoning:
tool-todo's 'don't validate scenarios that can't happen' and the
bash-stdin-env RFC's 'Don't add features beyond what the task
requires' (neither rule ever existed under those names).
- Citations of the two 'not golden truth' doctrines stay: those bullets
survive verbatim in the root conventions.
Note: packages/support/ui-stdio readline TTY spec flakes under full
coverage on a heavily loaded box (passes standalone and passed the
same tree's coverage run minutes earlier); untouched by this stack.
- Restore the universal JSDoc rule the rewrite dropped (module doc
comment + semantic JSDoc on every export), in root AGENTS.md § Type
safety and documentation — the generated-catalog RFC cites it as the
rule the generator enforces at the source.
- Repoint the six remaining citations of moved content that the
section-name grep missed (rule-title quotes and prose references):
agent-loop agent.ts, acp index.ts, acp turns.spec.ts, the Exa e2e
header, the real-api-e2e RFC, the doc-sync-enforcement RFC amendment,
and rfc/implemented/AGENTS.md's section-name casing.
- Fix two docs/testing.md overstatements: the unit tier also runs
examples/*/tests specs, and keyless-by-nature examples have no
with-key smoke.
- Displacement trims keep root AGENTS.md at 1,498/1,500.
The gate joined the doc-sync chain in this PR; the root file's two
enumerations of that chain must name it in the same change. The frozen
ceiling re-records the exact new count (8134).
- The manifest now freezes each budgeted doc at its exact current wc -w
count, matching the documented policy (a ceiling starts at the doc's
current size); the headroom that contradicted the freeze claim is
gone. Post-rewrite ratchets may still land at new-size-plus-headroom,
per the skill's ratchet rule — that is a different moment than the
initial freeze.
- --list now renders MISS/BAD rows for missing files and malformed
ceilings instead of silently dropping them (gate mode already failed
correctly; the report mode no longer under-reports).
Applies the documentation standard to its biggest offender. Every rule
survives as one to three lines plus a link to its durable home; the
stories, duplicate statements, and re-narrations go:
- Situational clusters evict to new homes: docs/testing.md (tiers,
with-key policy, real-over-mock, world-verification, real-entry-path
guards), docs/defensive-patterns.md (the bug-class rules), and
docs/cookbook/responding-to-pr-review-on-a-stack.md (the stacked-PR
review procedure).
- Doc-authoring rules consolidate into docs/AGENTS.md § Writing rules
(current-state-never-history, md-wrap, ts-block compilation, @mode,
catalog same-change, pair same-change).
- packages/README.md drops to the group table + the extension-vs-bundle
dependency rule; the hand ASCII graph yields to the generated
module-graph.md; group READMEs are the canonical per-package map.
- packages/AGENTS.md keeps only its packages-specific rules (export
shape, ctx.get, real-Loader coverage); examples/AGENTS.md repoints
its with-key-policy link; rfc/README.md loses a narrated-history
aside; dsh-code-review / dsh-find-simplifications / verify-md-wrap
references follow the moved content.
- Budget manifest ratchets: AGENTS.md 8200 -> 1500 (now 1,495 words),
packages/README.md 1900 -> 600, packages/AGENTS.md 600 -> 450; the
two new eviction docs join the budget set (testing 800, defensive
550); docs/AGENTS.md raises 1000 -> 1250 for the absorbed writing
rules (the one justified increase). The doc-tiers RFC's deferred list
prunes the two items this change ships.
Standing docs accrete a paragraph per PR with nothing pushing back; the
root AGENTS.md reached 8,130 words in 50 commits with the same rule
stated two and three times. This encodes the counter-pressure:
- docs/AGENTS.md becomes the documentation standard: the tier taxonomy
(one home per fact), target word budgets, and the slop checklist.
- verify-doc-budgets joins doc-sync: word ceilings for the six
accretion-prone standing docs, manifest-driven, frozen at current
sizes and ratcheted down as each doc is brought to target.
- .agents/skills/dsh-doc-standards: the thin placement/audit/red-gate
workflow over the standard, mirroring the dsh-translate-docs split.
- RFC (implemented/process) records the decision, alternatives, and
the first audit cycle's deferred work list.
The gate's first catch was the standard itself (1,057 > 1,000); it
ships condensed to 984 words rather than with a raised ceiling.
Replace outdated references to 'DeepSeek Code' with the correct
product name 'DeepSeek Harness SDK'. Update demo commands to
reflect the SDK nature (demo:agent, demo:acp) rather than the
old coding-agent product.
Load both hook bridges in the ACP example (dsh-hooks-claude → ./hooks.json,
dsh-hooks-codex → ./codex-hooks.json) so the full-transcript snapshot tier can
exercise each dialect against the real app. An absent config file is a silent
no-op, so a scenario carries only the file it needs and the other bridge
vanishes — verified byte-identical against every pre-existing snapshot.
Add a scenario per hook point × its headline Decision outcome, both dialects:
UserPromptSubmit block (authored, keyless) + context-fold, PreToolUse deny/ask,
PostToolUse block/context, Stop force-continue. The mid-turn scenarios are
recorded against the real API with the hook active, so the model's reaction to
a denied/blocked/force-continued turn is part of the replayed transcript.
SessionStart and SubagentStart are deliberately excluded (detached best-effort
inject races the log position — a recorded golden fails 10/10 on its own
replay), as is SubagentStop (observe-only, zero transcript footprint — a golden
could never be proven to fail). Both stay on the bridges' unit coverage. See
docs/rfc/implemented/testing/2026-07-04-hook-snapshot-matrix.md.
Codex review of the vocabulary relocation found two doc-accuracy issues:
- presentation.ts's JSDoc used {@link ToolDefinition...}, which the
TypeScript language service cannot resolve because presentation.ts
deliberately does not import index.ts (that would create the cycle the
split avoids). Demote those three to plain `ToolDefinition` code text;
same-file and imported @links (TerminalResultView, ContentBlock) stay.
- docs/core-data-structures/tools.md's source header listed only index.ts
and schema.ts; add presentation.ts, which now owns the presentation
vocabulary the page documents.
