Nothing read it. The launcher, dsh-upgrade, and the installer's own re-run
all ignored the file, and the diagnostic it was meant to feed was never
built, so it was write-only state.
Git already owns the fact it recorded: a staging worktree's .git file names
the repository path, and `git worktree list` in that clone enumerates every
worktree depending on it. An installer-written copy only adds state that can
go stale while nothing validates it.
The containment caveat it documented is real and stays in the script header
and the Agent Note, now pointing at git's own records.
Retaining link-in-place behind a prompt and DSH_ADOPT kept the divergent
install shape that this change exists to remove, and cost a flag, a prompt,
a dirty-tree warning, a no-commit fallback, and a second linking path.
In-repo mode now adopts unconditionally. A dirty tree adopts silently:
`worktree add` from HEAD cannot carry uncommitted work, so a prompt only
adds a decision the user cannot act on differently.
The original reason for link-in-place — keeping the script testable against
local source — survives adoption, since the staging worktree branches from
the checkout's HEAD and runs the same code. DSH_SOURCE remains the escape
hatch for installing a separate tree.
Net 47 fewer lines in the installer.
Running scripts/install.sh from a checkout linked `dsh` straight at that
checkout, producing an install that `dsh-upgrade` cannot upgrade (there is
no `current` to repoint), that dangles if the checkout moves, and whose
launcher resolves to an arbitrary working branch.
In-repo mode still never clones and never touches the working tree, but it
now offers to adopt the checkout, and adoption is the default. The container
owns staging worktrees and `current`; the repository is discovered via
`git rev-parse --git-common-dir` rather than owned, so a clone anywhere on
disk converges on the same upgradable layout as a curl install and both
share one worktree/exclude/lock/link sequence.
Declining, or DSH_ADOPT=0, keeps the previous link-in-place behavior with a
warning naming what it costs, preserving the path that makes this script
testable against local source.
All path comparisons run on physical paths: macOS resolves /var through a
symlink to /private/var, and comparing a resolved path against an unresolved
one misclassified an existing managed install as a foreign clone.
Verified manually (no install.spec.ts, per request) with a harness driving
the real script under a stubbed pnpm across 33 assertions, plus both
interactive outcomes under tmux.
Holds the session.history response at the browser's network boundary so
the auto-selected open is observable, then asserts the visible frame and
the recorded phase timeline. Registered host-plane like the other
scaffold-booting e2e files (host include + client project exclude).
The mount fixture always listed the session, so the case named "no list
summary" actually exercised a row proving non-blank. An omitSummaryRow
option drops the row, and the three cases now pin blank:false, an absent
row, and the summary-proven blank open.
The mount helper's 4th positional argument becomes an options object so a
test can set the session list row's blank flag independently of the
conversation snapshot's; the two new cases cover both branches of the
settling condition.
