Records the why behind the Yarn 4 → pnpm move (PR #39): ecosystem
alignment, strict-linker phantom-dependency safety, build-script
allowlisting, and the package-manager-independent constraints script.
Captures migration-time install benchmarks and notes the gate suite
passes unchanged on pnpm.
The resume seam intentionally throws a plain Error (the JSDoc and #34
were aligned to "clear error"). Match the ADR 0016 prose, which still
said "typed error". Docs-only; no behavior change. (Also carries the
#32 finalizer-containment fixes via the forward merge.)
Add the agent-creation factory seam on ctx.agents (AgentRegistry):
setFactory/create/resume plus the AgentFactory interface and
CreateAgentOptions/ResumeAgentOptions. AgentLoop implements AgentFactory
and registers itself via ctx.agents.setFactory(this), so plugins
create/resume agents through the interface without depending on the
concrete loop package.
- create({ agentId, sessionId, meta?, agentOptions? }) — programmatic
create on a caller-supplied session id (e.g. an ACP-generated id).
- resume({ agentId, resumeSessionId, agentOptions? }) — load a persisted
session via ctx.sessionPersistence (RFC 009) and resume an agent on it;
the live session id is the resumed id, turn numbering and derived
history continue from the loaded log. sessionPersistence is NOT
hard-injected (non-persistent demos still work); resume rejects with a
typed error when it is absent. assertAgentIdFree runs before any
session is created (and again after the load await) so a duplicate id
never leaves an orphaned live session.
Adds the runtime dsh-session-persistence dependency to agent-loop.
Add the durable session-persistence capability seam (ADR 0016): an
abstract SessionPersistence service (dsh-session-persistence,
ctx.sessionPersistence) defining create/append/load/list/has/delete/
update over the existing SessionEvent — no parallel persisted type — and
a first implementation (dsh-session-persistence-jsonl): an append-only
JSONL log per session with crash-safe atomic writes, truncation-repair
of a never-committed crash tail, and a read/replay path. SessionMeta
(format version, cwd, lineage) travels out-of-log via session.header.
A shared runPersistenceContract suite holds every backend to the same
append-only / contiguous-seq / lazy-materialization / serializability
semantics.
Config-driven create() now uses a per-run ${id}-session-<uuid> session
id so a fixed name no longer collides with an on-disk log once a durable
backend is loaded; each run is a new session (a demo simplification). The
examples drop their hand-rolled session-jsonl.ts and load the JSONL
backend via cordis.yml; CI smoke-loads it too.
The agent-facing create/resume factory that consumes load() is a
separate seam, deferred to a follow-up; this change stops at the load
primitive and does not reach into the loop.
Every session event now lives inside a turn (between turn/start and its
turn/end). The loop records queued user/message events AFTER turn/start;
an idle agent.inject() wraps its context/message in a one-shot injection
turn. This makes the turn the single durability/replay boundary so a
persistence backend can treat anything after the last turn/end as a
crash tail without dropping legitimate between-turn context.
A failure once the turn is already closed (rejecting session/flush, a
throwing agent/turn-end listener) has no in-turn position for a session
error event, so it is reported via agent/error + logger only; the turn
stays balanced. failTurn appends an error event only while the turn is
open.
The dsh-invariants plugin enforces turn-enclosure via a default case:
every non-boundary event type — including plugin-added merge-extensible
keys — must sit inside an open turn or it throws.
Documented in ADR 0017 + architecture.md.
The doc-sync gates were CI-only, so the AGENTS.md doc-sync promise could be
missed locally until after push. Add a shared `doc-sync` package.json script
(doc-typecheck + verify-event-taxonomy) wired into the lefthook pre-push job,
and point the CI step at the same script — one source of truth per ADR 0007.
Addresses PR review finding.
Introduce HarnessError in dsh-llm (the leaf package): a stable machine-routable
code distinct from the message, cause chaining, name from the subclass, plus
isHarnessError. LlmError, ToolArgsError, and InvariantError now extend it.
Tool failures carry the structure end-to-end: ToolExecutionResult gains
error: { name, code } (populated from a thrown HarnessError), and the loop
forwards it onto the tool/result session event (which gained the same optional
field) for retry/sandbox plugins and replay. The loop's toError wraps non-Error
throws in a HarnessError(code: UNKNOWN, cause) instead of a bare Error.
Landed last and in isolation so it's a pure upgrade over the plain Error+code
the earlier PRs used — independently revertible. Graduates RFC 005 pt 2 ->
ADR 0015; RFC 005 now fully implemented.
Two tsx CI gates make doc/code drift fail fast:
- doc-typecheck extracts every fenced ts block from README/docs/package READMEs,
compiles them with tsc --noEmit against a temp project (vendor->lib, harness->src
paths from tsconfig.typecheck.json), and fails on errors. Deliberate sketches opt
out with ```ts ignore-check; the opt-out ratio is reported and capped.
- verify-event-taxonomy asserts the docs/architecture.md taxonomy table names
exactly the events declared in the interface Events blocks. This surfaced three
events the table had been missing (tools/change, llm/adapter-change,
system-prompt/change), now added.
Doc snippets made compilable with stub imports/declares (1 genuine sketch ignored).
Wired into CI after typecheck. API reports (RFC 006 pt 3) deferred. Graduates RFC
006 pts 1-2 -> ADR 0014.
Adds fast-check + one tests/properties.spec.ts per protocol-shaped package
(llm/BlockAssembler, session, tools/schema DSL, agent-loop scheduling). The
tools suite includes the RFC 001<->005 composition property (generated args
satisfying a spec pass validateArgs), closing the validator/InferArgs drift
risk from ADR 0011. Loop properties are deterministic (settle on agent/status,
no sleeps).
The BlockAssembler suite found a real bug on first run: a duplicate block-end
at the same index overwrote an already-flushed block, so the streamed prefix
disagreed with final blocks(). Fixed (first close wins, matching the existing
straggler rule) + regression test. Graduates RFC 001 -> ADR 0013.
New @deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants plugin (pure listeners, off in prod) asserts
the event taxonomy at runtime — seq monotonicity, turn/step nesting, a
tool/result needs a prior tool/call (NOT the converse), legal agent/status
transitions — and deep-freezes logged event data so mutating history throws.
Seeded sessions are checked + frozen on session/created.
The real RFC 008 fix is always-on: deriveMessages now structured-clones the
content it emits, so the loop's sanctioned request/adapter mutation can no
longer reach back and rewrite the append-only log. The pervasive
DeepReadonly<T> type flip is rejected (compile-only, high-noise, castable) —
recorded in ADR 0012, which folds in RFC 008. Wired into both demos.
- enum membership now checked uniformly for all SchemaTypes, mirroring the
converter which emits `enum` regardless of type (was string-only)
- checkValue switch ends in assertNever per the closed-union convention
- sync the adding-a-tool cookbook to the validate-for-you behavior
- soften ADR 0011's property-test claim (RFC 001 not yet landed)
defineTool now runs validateArgs against the SchemaSpec before execute, so a
malformed model call returns a self-correctable isError result listing the
violations instead of reaching the typed body untyped-in-practice. The
validator mirrors schemaSpecToJsonSchema semantics exactly (required from
required:true only, extra keys allowed, default not applied, object/array
without properties/items only type-checks, enum membership).
tool-bash's hand-rolled type/required checks (carrying the TODO(RFC 005)
stopgap note) are slimmed to just the value constraints the DSL can't express
(non-empty strings, positive timeout). Graduates RFC 005 pt 1 to ADR 0011.
- AGENTS.md Commands: fix typecheck/build descriptions; add lint, lint:fix,
test:coverage, knip, publint, hygiene (were undocumented).
- Drop the bare `yarn demo` for explicit `demo:echo` + `demo:coding`; update
README, examples READMEs (and document coding-agent in examples/README).
- New cookbook guide: adding-a-vendored-package.md (the missing "add" half of
vendor/README's update-only procedure).
- architecture.md: add a table-of-contents and extract the Extension cookbook
to docs/cookbook/extension-cookbook.md (link-preserving); drop the completed
"restructure this document" TODO.
- ADR 0009 (capability seams) + 0010 (twin LLM adapters), and a "when to write
an ADR" standard in adr/README.
- Add a committed dsh-code-review skill under .agents/skills, exposed to Claude
Code via a tracked .claude/skills symlink (gitignore carve-out).
Hard line breaks mid-paragraph make docs harder to edit and diff — a
one-word change reflows and re-diffs the whole paragraph. Reflow all
tracked non-vendor Markdown (plus vendor/AGENTS.md) so each prose
paragraph is a single line; soft-wrapping is the editor's job. Fenced
code, tables, and list structure are preserved (wrapped list items fold
to one line per bullet). Documents the convention in AGENTS.md.
Seven ADRs capturing the why behind decisions already made: vendoring
Cordis as source with a guarded manifest; the microkernel event
taxonomy with one swappable concrete loop; event-sourced sessions
with derived history and the append-before-emit ordering contract;
the provider-neutral content-block vocabulary (and why not
OpenAI/Anthropic shapes); the custom tool-schema DSL over schemastery;
tool schemas living in the prompt assembly; and mechanical quality
gates over prose guidelines (the agents-write-the-code rationale).
