The shell is now a pure composition face: no dictionaries, no locale
dependency, and three new chrome content seats (settings.trigger /
settings.header / settings.close) whose slot content also carries the
accessible names (trigger text, dialog aria-labelledby, visually hidden
close label). ui-settings-general returns as the owner of copy that
belongs to no single feature: chrome content, the General section with
its item slot, and the settings dictionaries. Slot types split homes —
trigger/header/close/section live in the shell contract; the
settings.general.item entry moves to the locale package (the common
dependency of every item registrant), with ui-theme consuming it
through a re-export seam; the verbatim duplicate merges are gone and
the dependency graph is a clean DAG.
Settings collaboration direction (recorded in the note): the shell only
provides composition faces — feature plugins register themselves. The
General section moves into the ui-settings shell (order 0, skeleton
rows) and declares the settings.general.item list slot; locale registers
the Language row and ui-theme the Appearance row (each with its own
store mirror, dictionaries, and ledger-judged deferral); the
ui-settings-general package is gone. ui-settings-models becomes
ui-models — a feature package that contributes its Settings section
rather than a settings-owned satellite. The item-slot SlotMap entry is
authored in the ui-settings contract and repeated verbatim in
locale/ui-theme (reference-cycle avoidance; declaration merging keeps
the copies identical).
The hero composer renders the frontend Session Intent's retained prompt
from the sessions list snapshot, but updateIntent only reached that
snapshot through the intent watch's microtask-deferred markDirty. React
therefore rolled the controlled textarea back during the change tick,
which corrupted IME composition (Pinyin "nihao" committed fragments
like "nnini hni hani hao你好") and jumped the caret on plain typing.
SessionManager.updateIntent now calls notifyNow after
updatePendingPrompt, per the Notifier channel rule for direct echoes of
user gestures. The workspace-flow snapshot helper asserts the same-tick
echo instead of waiting for it, and a runtime unit test pins the
contract at the manager seam.
Add the browser Settings surface as slot-composed plugins over new
preference services:
- Rename dsh-client-i18n to dsh-client-locale (locale is the domain
name); LocaleService adds getLocale()/setLocale(id), immutable
snapshots, a locale/change event, and dsh.locale persistence.
- ThemeService owns the light/dark/system preference (default system),
resolves system via prefers-color-scheme, publishes theme/change
snapshots, persists dsh.theme, and no longer touches the DOM;
ui-layout's ThemePresenter applies resolved snapshots
(body[data-ds-dark-theme] + alias tokens) and cleans up on dispose.
- ui-sidebar drops the phase-1 settings dropdown/modal; the foot renders
the new sidebar.settings slot with the column state.
- New ui-settings shell occupies sidebar.settings: foot trigger row and
the centered 1080x700 panel (figma 501:29947) with 24% mask, close
button / mask click / Escape all closing, and a 188px nav projected
from the settings.section list slot it declares. Nav labels are
registrant-localized; sections re-register on locale change, so the
ledger version is the shell's only subscription.
- ui-settings-general registers the General section: Permission and
Tool Call skeletons, live Language (locale menu) and Appearance
(Light/Dark/System cubes following the persisted preference); its
slot store mirrors both service snapshots via apply-side listeners.
- ui-settings-models registers the Models nav entry with an empty
content column.
- Portaled menus pin z-index above modal overlays (a menu anchored
inside the settings dialog rendered underneath it and was
unclickable).
- theme/data/list-pen icons in ui-primitives; settings copy ships as
zh/en dictionaries; fixture manifests gain the settings rows.
