Clearing waitingApprovals in handleConnected raced the reconnect replay:
mux frames flow from stream open while onConnected waits for the
readiness handshake, so a replayed approval/requested could land first
and be wiped — amber dot and answerable card lost until the next
generation. The sweep moves to generation death (onStateChange
'reconnecting'), before any next-generation frame can exist, and now
also drops buffered answerable frames (approval/question pairs) whose
dead-generation rpcIds could never be answered — a session instantiated
later no longer replays zombie takeover cards. session/queued buffering
already re-baselines per generation; this closes the same window for
the interaction frames.
Selecting a preset from the hero pushed the session into the conversation
view: the /permission switch logs its command/run + command/done pair, the
pair folds into flow nodes, and the composerPhase predicate counted ANY
node as conversation — so the hero (composerPhase === 'blank') collapsed.
The host-side blank bit was already correct (sessionBlank = no turn/start;
knob events open no turn), but the client derives its phase from window
content, and command rows are log-only records, not conversation.
derivePhase's hasContent now excludes command nodes — the client mirror of
the host predicate. The knob events themselves never fold (not
surface-eligible), so the pair was the only leak. Covers /plan on the hero
identically (same lifecycle pair, same predicate).
Specs: the host blank spec pins the three knob events as standalone
events; a session spec drives the /permission pair through the live path
and asserts phase stays 'blank' while the command node renders.
Supersession (newer navigation, path editing, closing, unmount) now
aborts the in-flight listing's request instead of only discarding its
result: the browser mints an AbortController per listing, the signal
rides the workspace face (IWorkspaces.listDirectory gains an optional
signal) onto the fetch carrier, and the Host scan stops with it (817's
cancellation chain). apps/cli keeps both picker packages as dependencies
so the documented one-row cordis.yml swap to the native backend resolves
at boot.
Shared-surface conflicts resolve as unions: the fixture serves all five
projection keys (title/todos/permissions/plan/goal) with the /permission
and /plan command mirrors side by side, the connection specs assert the
five-key baseline and the shifted approval/question replay indices, and
the cli roster/deps, tsconfig aggregate, and README allowlist carry both
lines' rows. Plan-side content lands verbatim from master.
One end-state consolidation both branches half-did: with questions
(ui-question) and approvals (ApprovalPanel) each owning a composer
takeover, PendingCard retires outright — ChatView renders no pending
placeholder, the card component and its specs go, and both README halves
state the takeover-only contract.
Three ui-conversation spec conflicts resolve to master's SlotTestRuntime
rewrites. Adaptation to the new outward session face: ISession gains the
command verb (the composer chip and the /permission picker submit through
it), FixtureSession grows the matching fail-loud stub plus the
waitingApproval summary default, and the picker reads the projection
through projections.faceOf (the ProjectionsFace shape) instead of the
retired store getter.
master's new ctx.workspaces contract face (IWorkspaces + TestWorkspaces
double) predates this stack's listDirectory/createDirectory; widening the
face is the explicit act of letting the browse flow drive them, and the
double records/stubs them like its siblings.
Feature packages now reach these domains through interface types only:
ISession/SessionFace (identity + prompt/cancel/loadOlder + the useSession
snapshot source), ISessions, IWorkspaces, ILayout, IConversation, and the
existing SlashServiceContract now actually mounted on Context.slash. The
concrete services implement their face; wire-pump and assembly entry
points stay on the classes. The provide-channel materialization and
current-projection logic moves into SessionProvideChannel so the
production service and the client test runtime share one implementation.
The workspaces service consumes sessions through the narrow SessionsPort.
The summary blank bit switches from log emptiness to the absence of any
turn/start: standalone plugin events — command lifecycle records,
plan/mode, session titles, goal metadata — no longer surface a fresh
session in lists or steal the New Session view. Running /plan (or /goal)
on a blank session keeps it blank and reusable; the first accepted
prompt's turn clears it. Both carriers share one predicate (summarize +
the host/session-added frame); the cold path keeps its constant false
with the index-read rationale; the client mirror already flips only on
prompt acceptance and needed no change.
PermissionSelect returns as the Access seat's wired occupant: options and
the current value read from the 'permissions' projection through the
standard-kit useProjection (no fetch, no mount timing — the resident
composer's mount-once fetch bug dies with the fetch), key absence renders
nothing (permission-less host, or a Draft with no session), and a pick
submits the '/permission <preset>' command line through the new
ComposerBarInjected.command callback (Session.command = command.execute
admission; the pushed projection frame lands the confirmed value). The
READONLY_OPTIONS placeholder and its local state leave InputBar.
The connection fixture mirrors the host: a permissions unit fold (three
knob events over the fixture preset table), the projections block +
baseline/push frames carry the key, and /permission joins the command
catalog with the same switch-through-knob-events handler shape.
Review finding (PR #791): the column carried bare values (no seq), so the
client could not seed its value store without risking a stale list block
outranking newer push frames — and nothing consumed the column at all,
leaving cold titles absent after a restart. SessionSummary.projections is
now the same SessionProjectionsBlock as the history tail (values +
asOfSeq; attached rows cut the live registry, cold rows serve the cache's
identity-checked cachedSnapshot whose asOfSeq is the lowest served-row
watermark). SessionManager.refreshList seeds each row's block into the
per-session projection store via per-key apply — partial-baseline
semantics: an absent key never clears, and higher-seq-wins keeps stale
list blocks beneath push frames and tail baselines — so cold titles
surface in the sidebar without opening a session.
ui-workspace's two trigger surfaces each declare a single-kind directory-flow
hole (conversation.hero.workspace.directoryFlow / sidebar.workspaces.directoryFlow,
same owner contract) and keep only the trigger and the adoption: the Open-local-
folder entry renders while the surface's hole is occupied, and the occupant
reports one picked path per open through the hole's owner conversation
(open/busy/onPicked/onCancel/onError).
directory-picker-native becomes dual-face: its browser half fills both holes
with a renderless occupant driving host.pickDirectory, so the cordis.yml row
that mounts the backend also composes the client interaction — a mismatch is
impossible and a second flow package fails at client load.
With composition wiring both sides, the host.describe.directoryPicker
advertisement and the client's kind branching lose their last consumer:
the field, WorkspacesService.directoryPickerKind(), the DirectoryPickerKind
wire type, and the picker's per-open describe read are deleted. The connection
fixture now serves a deterministic pickDirectory path so the keyless snapshot
drives the full pick-then-adopt flow. ui-workspace's hand-rolled declaration
deferral is replaced by the deferRegistration helper it duplicated.
The session.permissions/setPermission unary pair, the PermissionOption wire
DTO, the client Session wrappers, and the fixture/fake mirrors all leave the
wire: the read side moves to the 'permissions' session projection and the
write side moves to the /permission command in follow-up commits, so the
web protocol gains no permission methods at all.
The pendingSwitches + prompt-submit flush + hasOpenTurn move also goes.
Knob events no longer need turn enclosure: the persistence scanner keeps
standalone events after the last turn/end as part of the preserved prefix
(remove-synthetic-log-only-turns), none of the three knob invariants demand
an open turn, and the setters append bare events. An idle switch commits
immediately; hasOpenTurn stays a user-approval private fold (its audit pair
is the one contract that still requires enclosure).
The old PermissionSelect chip and its mount-time fetch die with the RPCs
(the resident composer broke the mount-once assumption); the projection-fed
replacement lands with the Access seat swap.
39 conflicts resolved per the reattachment plan (missions worktree-projbiz
0728-1859): baseline wins for deleted packages (host/runtime, old ui/acp,
ui-sidebar Rows/tree) and retired specs; unions for wire-layer exports and
client summary fields; the approval takeover, waitingApprovals tracking, and
PendingApproval domain face carry over onto the master structure. The two
new host specs follow the runtime->apiproxy rename. Dead PR-side wiring
(ConversationInjected permissions/setPermission spread, InputBar controls
prop, boot.ts sandbox composition) resolves to master and its replacement
lands in follow-up commits.
The browse interaction also presents a dialog (the in-app modal), so 'dialog'
failed to discriminate the two capability kinds; 'native' names where the
chooser runs. Package directory-picker-dialog -> directory-picker-native, kind
'dialog' -> 'native', with every seam/gateway/client/doc reference updated and
the seam Agent Note's naming rationale rewritten to match.
The web GUI's folder picking was hardwired to one interaction: a native
OS chooser compiled into the gateway, unusable for remote deployments
and swappable only by editing apiproxy source.
Directory picking becomes a three-package capability seam in
packages/host: ctx.directoryPicker returns a discriminated capability —
dialog (the extracted native chooser; host-display only) or browse
(new: one-level listing + child creation over Node stdlib, hidden flags
host-stamped, symlinks followed, ancestry crumbs; remote-capable). The
gateway injects the seam, advertises the kind via
host.describe.directoryPicker, serves host.listDirectory /
host.createDirectory under browse, and answers
directory-picker-unavailable across kinds. cordis.yml is the swap
point; apps/cli keeps dialog mounted, so behavior is unchanged until
the in-app browser PR flips the default. The connection fixture serves
a deterministic browse tree; WorkspacesService gains the browse calls
the browser UI will drive. Decision record:
.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-directory-picker-capability-seam.md
Review follow-ups: the three new notify loops (currentProvideInfo
subscribers, ui-skill lexicon listeners, late-registration controller
setup) now contain per-callback failures so one faulty consumer cannot
starve the rest, abort the list projection pass, or poison the source
roster with no disposer; controller lexicon polling drops a throwing
source with a console record like the candidate path. The ui-slash
README (both languages) now states the late-registration warm and the
subscribeLexicon contract, and the scenario suite drives a typed /name
token gaining its decoration when the roll settles with no further
input.
provideInfo(id)/maybeProvideInfo(id) lost their last external caller
when the renderer host switched to the currentProvideInfo observable;
both become private (tests assert through the public projection). The
reprojection method's name now says what it does — re-derive and
publish on change — and matches the field family it maintains.
A provider roster change under a stable current id rematerialized every
scope's bundle but nothing notified React: SessionProvider resolved the
bundle from a current-id subscription only, so mounted entries kept the
obsolete hook/prop schema until an unrelated re-render. The sessions
service now owns an atomic currentProvide observable fed by both current
writes and roster changes; the renderer host exposes it as
sessions.provide, replacing the current/provideInfo/maybeProvideInfo
trio, and both providers subscribe to it.
Lint: eslint --fix over the merge-crossed projection/command files (arrow
parens, trailing commas, unnecessary assertions), Extract<> replaces the
keyof-map & string intersections no-redundant-type-constituents rejects,
the fold-adapter's merge loop drops its non-null assertions for a
bounds-carrying cursor, one JSDoc line wrapped under max-len (api-catalog
regenerated). Snapshots: the four TUI goldens re-recorded for the merged
event-count shift (the durable command lifecycle adds one event to the
seeded diagnostics log). The headless advanced-toolchain snapshot passes
on CI and fails locally in this sandbox both with and without these
changes (30s child timeout — environment-bound, tracked in the ledger).
commandId crosses three boundaries (session log, wire admission response,
client flow pairing), so per the branded-id rule it becomes
Branded<'CommandId'>, declared in a new pure @deepseek-ai/dsh-commands/brand
outlet (the dsh-llm/brand shape: type + constructor, no Context merges, so
wire and client programs can name it without loading the host plugin). The
event payloads, CommandExecution, and the executor mint carry the brand; the
wire schema gains commandIdSchema as the domain's single brand-cast point
(the approvals precedent); CommandNode and the fixture's fabrication cast
follow type-only.
The consumer-side restated declare-merges retire (user ruling: one home per
projection key): TodoPanel imports the todos merge and TodoItem through
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-todo/client, and the manager takes the title merge
through @deepseek-ai/dsh-session-title/client — both pure-type outlets
re-exporting the domain's single-source types.ts, so no host value import or
Context merge enters the client program (type-only edges, exempt from the
plugin value-import ban). Workspace deps and tsconfig references added.
Also aligns the fixture's empty-log tail block with the host convention
(asOfSeq -1 with empty values, block always present on tail requests).
The manager's titleSnapshots Map and its session/title frame consumption
dissolve into resident per-session ProjectionValueStores (create-on-demand,
outliving instantiation — the same role the snapshot map played): a
session/projection frame lands whether or not the Session exists, list rows
read the store's 'title' key, subscribed baselines truncate phantom rows, and
session-removed drops the store. The fixture converts to the host parallel:
a projections block on the tail page (title + todos units), push frames on
unit-advancing events, and a post-subscribe projection baseline replacing the
bespoke title control frame.
TodoDock reads useProjection('todos') (whole list or null pre-first-write;
absent renders nothing) and declare-merges the todos key through the pure-type
outlet — the identical member the tool-todo host unit owns, drift rejected by
any program holding both. The core Session's todos field, its todo/write case,
and the snapshot member retire; the client folds nothing. Session specs for
the retired client fold move to the value-store spec's seq coverage; snapshot
literals across component specs drop the field.
Client-side domain folding is gone (RFC final: the host is the only
computation site): ProjectionCellSpec/fromEvent, ProjectionCellSet, the
SessionsService cell roster, and the Session event-dispatch projection hooks
all delete; Session.projections becomes the generic value store (manager-owned
via SessionOptions so frames landing before instantiation and the history
baseline converge on one row set), and installWindow only seeds the store from
a carried block. The cell specs retire with the machinery — the value store's
own spec owns the seq semantics now.
The push-model client base (session-projection RFC final): ProjectionValueStore
holds key → {value, seq} per session, seeded by the tail page's projections
block and updated by session/projection frames under one rule — higher seq
wins on both paths (stale baseline cannot overwrite a newer frame; replayed
frames cannot regress; an omitting fresh baseline clears = capability absent);
truncate() drops phantom rows past a subscribed durable baseline. Per-key
identity-stable faces (always defined; absence is an undefined snapshot) feed
useProjection; the renderer contract's projections member becomes faceOf.
12 store specs cover both seq directions, absence, truncation, and batching.
The line field is deleted (pre-release, no shim): name and args are
parseCommand's own split — name plus verbatim rawInput with its separator
whitespace — so a consumer (a projection unit folding its own command
records, a rich command card) never re-parses a line. CommandNode mirrors
the split (name/args, both null on a run-less cross-window node); the
generic card rebuilds its display line as /name + args. The connection
fixture logs the same structured payload.
The FoldAdapter folds the log-only command/run + command/done pair (paired
by commandId) into a CommandNode outside the surface fold and merges the
nodes into the flow by seq; cross-window cuts soft-fall like tool pairs (a
done-only window builds the node from the done, a run with no done renders
as still executing). ChatView renders command nodes through the new keyed
'conversation.chat.commandview' hole (key = command name) with
GenericCommandCard — a stripped-down GenericToolCard showing the command
line and outcome text — as the render-site fallback, so any slash command
renders durably with zero registration and survives refresh, other tabs,
and resume via the mux-broadcast events.
The wire type now carries projections?: SessionProjectionsBlock (host-base
landed), so the structural projectionsOf narrowing and its TODO(gui) go away —
Session reads result.value.projections directly at all three installWindow
sites. ProjectionsBaseline stays as the cell framework's structural twin
(React-free layer keeps depending on the type table only) with values typed
Partial<SessionProjectionMap>; the erased walk moves inside resetBaseline
where per-key typing is re-established by schema.parse.
Swap the client runtime's parallel-construction placeholder for
import type from @deepseek-ai/dsh-session-projection/types — the zero-import
outlet, never the package root, whose dsh-agent → dsh-session chain would drag
the host Context.sessions merge into the client program. One type table end to
end (host provider, wire block, client cell, React hook); the spec's test key
now declare-merges the real module. Adds the workspace dep and the tsconfig
project reference.
React half of the session-projection client base: the renderer contract gains
an open-key projections face on SessionMaybeProvideInfo (cellOf(key), distinct
from the static hooks roster), web-react mints projectionHook (per-bundle cache;
per-cell uSES binding via the shared observableHook cache; unresolved keys read
undefined through the absent source so hook order stays constant), standardKit
delivers kit.useProjection, and the runtime merges UseProjection into
SessionStandardProps/SessionMaybeStandardProps (overloads mirror useSession).
3 jsdom specs (kit delivery + live re-render, selector over undefined, faceless
bundle = all absent); existing direct-prop-feed specs gain the one-line stub the
new required seat mandates.
Object layer of the session-projection RFC client base: ProjectionCellSpec/
ProjectionCell/ProjectionCellSet with the single seq-watermark rule (live and
window-replace events share one filter; baseline reset re-seeds value+watermark
unless a newer commit applied; absent key = capability absent), Session
dispatch at appendLive/installWindow (projections block read structurally,
TODO(gui) switch to the interface package), SessionsService.registerProjectionCell
roster (live scopes now + future scopes at mint; disposer sweeps every session),
and the provideInfo projections face (key-addressed bare cell sources).
15 object-layer specs: watermark no-rollback, late-baseline seq rule,
capability absence, schema-failure degrade, duplicate-key throw, resync e2e.
