Every session.jsonl fixture embedded the full composed system prompt and
complete tool-schema list in its request/header event (~8 KB on one line,
identical across the suite), so any prompt or tool-schema edit forced a
re-record or hand-edit of every fixture — see the dynamic-workflows PR for
the churn pattern this removes.
Now exactly one scenario (text-turn, flagged pinsHeader) commits and
compares that content verbatim; every other fixture stores and compares it
as {{system}}/{{tools}} tokens via the new pure scrubRequestHeaders
normalizer (applied to both compare sides and to record-mode writes, so a
re-record cannot reintroduce the content). request/header-delta payloads
are scrubbed the same way; config/reason stay verbatim — a model swap
SHOULD churn every fixture, a prompt edit should not. Replay is unaffected:
script derivation reads only assistant/chunk events.
Fixture meta-guards enforce the split: non-pinning fixtures must be fixed
points of the scrub, the pinning fixture must not be, and exactly one
scenario pins. Committed fixtures migrated through the same function.
Docs: pinned-header RFC (implemented/testing), base snapshot RFC + testing
policy + llm-replay module doc/README updated.
New doc-sync gate verify-export-jsdoc walks every module-level exported
name under packages/*/*/src and requires description prose everywhere,
plus @param per parameter and @returns on non-void annotated returns for
function-like exports, public class methods, properties, and accessors.
The parsing + check helpers move out of gen-cordis-catalog.ts into a
shared scripts/jsdoc.ts so 'documented' means one thing on both gated
surfaces.
Deliberate exemptions (documented in the RFC): heritage-declared class
members (the seam declaration is the doc's one home — the one checker
query in an otherwise pure-AST walk), cordis plugin-protocol slots
(name/inject/reusable/Config/apply, top-level and static), constructors,
overload implementations, declare-module augmentation bodies, and
re-export statements (checked at the defining module).
The 203 under-documented exports the gate found at adoption are filled
in this change, so the gate lands green; generated catalogs/graphs are
regenerated for the shifted line pointers.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-06-export-surface-jsdoc-gate.md
scripts/gen-config-catalog.ts walks every packages/<group>/<pkg> entry with
the TypeScript compiler API and emits docs/config-catalog.md: per loadable
plugin, the verbatim config declaration (JSDoc included) its apply/constructor
receives in a ts config-catalog fence, the inject requirements, resolved links
for every referenced type (package-local types pasted transitively, other
plugins' config types as intra-page anchors, LINK_MAP names to
core-data-structures, workspace types to source), and terse classification
lists for config-free plugins, abstract seams, and libraries — classification
is total, so a new package cannot go undocumented.
The walk enforces per-field JSDoc prose on every pasted declaration and
statically cross-checks the schemastery schema (z.object keys, z.intersect
composition across packages): every schema-validated key must be a declared
member of the config type. One violation existed repo-wide — the agents[].id
field in dsh-agent-loop — fixed by adding its JSDoc (which shifts the
cordis-catalog services page's source pointers; regenerated).
verify-config-catalog (--check) joins doc-sync; doc-typecheck learns the
ts config-catalog fence; gen-cordis-catalog exports its JSDoc/pointer helpers
and LINK_MAP for reuse. Negative-path spec in
packages/core/agent-core/tests/gen-config-catalog.spec.ts mirrors the
gen-cordis-catalog spec. Decision record:
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-06-generated-config-catalog.md (includes
the deliberate acceptance of README ## Config overlap).
The reconstructability RFC is the principle's home: model-visible ⟺
logged in both forms, the mechanism (boundary derivation + header
fold), the enforcement (write-time round-trip guard, the dev
invariant), the corollaries ranked (prefix-cache stability first), the
MiniCode lineage with the provenance arrow inverted, and the
alternatives it beat — including the stateful transmission client
whose three-design archaeology lives in PR #162.
Placements per the one-home-per-fact taxonomy: a standing-order line in
root AGENTS.md (with displacement trims to stay inside the 1,575-word
ceiling), the principle statement in architecture.md § Session Log and
its Turn Flow lines (condensed to the ratcheted 1,630 ceiling), the
request-envelope section in core-data-structures/core.md with the
LlmCallConfig paste, both review-requested FIXMEs
(FIXME(call-config-shape) beside the type, FIXME(catalog-verbs) at the
catalog's drift-gate note), cookbook rows redirected off agent/request
(tool filtering → system-prompt/assemble, plan-mode prompt → sections/
inject()), and the llm/stream JSDoc stating the frozen-request
contract. RFC index and all generated catalogs regenerated.
This branch's two RFCs (prompt-variables, provider-lifecycle events)
conform to the new contract in the same merge: 'Status: implemented'
dateless header, 'Rejected alternatives' -> 'Alternatives considered',
'What we give up' folded into '## Consequences' (per the uniform-format
RFC's own rejection of a costs-only closer), and the index regenerated
into the new INDEX.md. docs/rfc/README.md resolved to master's rewrite.
Define the in-file RFC contract in docs/rfc/README.md § The file format:
the header block (`# RFC: <title>` plus a dateless Status enum
cross-checked against the lifecycle folder), the per-lifecycle body
skeleton (a Problem opener everywhere; Proposal/Alternatives considered/
Acceptance criteria/Risks in proposed/; present-tense Decision/
Consequences with proposal-era headings banned in implemented/; the
frozen proposal shape in rejected/), and a mandatory Alternatives
considered section with a date-fenced grandfather comment for pre-format
RFCs whose alternatives are not reconstructible from the record.
Enforce it with a new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-rfc-format.ts, and
normalize all 112 RFCs to it: ~15 Status-line spellings collapse to the
enum, 29 Context openers become Problem, the 39 legacy-format XXX debt
markers are resolved and banned from reappearing, proposal-era sections
in implemented RFCs are rewritten to shipped reality (including the
web/fs/subagent seam RFCs' migration plans and test checklists, closing
the doc-tiers deferred-work item on the web seam), every RFC gains an
Alternatives considered section or the grandfather comment, and the
bilingual pair is re-mirrored and re-recorded.
Move the generated index tables out of README.md into a fully generated
docs/rfc/INDEX.md — gen-rfc-index now writes the whole file, and
verify-rfc-classification checks its freshness and rejects index-shaped
rows in the curated README — which makes room for the format contract to
live in the README front door instead of a separate FORMAT.md.
The decision record, and the first RFC written in the new format, is
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-05-uniform-rfc-format.md.
