# Context The context is the core cordis object: every service, event, and lifecycle API is reached through `ctx`. Event methods (`ctx.on`, `ctx.emit`, …) are documented on [Events](./events.md); `ctx.effect` and `ctx.fiber` on [Fiber](./fiber.md); `ctx.plugin` and `ctx.inject` on [Registry](./registry.md). Root and child dependency containers for Cordis plugins. A context is a proxy: normal property reads go through the service resolver, while `extend()`, `isolate()`, and `intercept()` create scoped child contexts without mutating their parent. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L42) ### ctx.extend(meta?) ```ts website-api extend(meta = {}): this ``` Create a child context with extra metadata on top of the current scope. The child prototypally inherits every property of this context; own properties of `meta` shadow the inherited ones. The parent is not mutated. - `meta` — own properties (including symbol keys) to define on the child. **Returns** a child context inheriting from this one. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L99) ### ctx.isolate(name, label?) ```ts website-api isolate(name: string, label?: symbol) ``` Create a child context with an independent service scope for `name`. Below the returned context, reads and writes of the service `name` resolve against the new label instead of the parent's, so a different implementation can be provided without affecting the parent scope. Passing the same `label` to two `isolate()` calls joins their scopes. - `name` — the service name to isolate. - `label` — scope label to join; defaults to a fresh unique symbol. **Returns** a child context whose `name` service resolves in the new scope. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L121) ### ctx.intercept(name, config) ```ts website-api intercept(name: K, config: Context[K] extends { [symbols.config]: infer T } ? T : never): this intercept(name: string, config: any): this ``` Add service-specific intercept config for plugins started below this context. Plugins loaded under the returned context see `config` merged into the service's resolved config (ancestor entries first; see `Service[symbols.resolveConfig]`). The parent context is not affected. - `name` — the service name whose config to intercept. - `config` — the intercept config to merge for that service. **Returns** a child context carrying the additional intercept entry. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L139) ### ctx.root ```ts website-api root: this ``` The root context of the application (every child context shares it). @experimental [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L22) ### ctx.baseUrl ```ts website-api baseUrl?: string ``` Base URL used to resolve relative plugin/module specifiers, if the runtime sets one. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L24) ### ctx.events ```ts website-api events: EventsService ``` The event bus. Its methods are also mixed onto `ctx` (`ctx.on`, `ctx.emit`, ...). [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L26) ### ctx.logger ```ts website-api logger: LoggerService ``` The logging service. Call `ctx.logger(name)` for a named logger. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L28) ### ctx.reflect ```ts website-api reflect: ReflectService ``` The reflection layer backing the context proxy (`ctx.get`, `ctx.provide`, ...). [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L30) ### ctx.registry ```ts website-api registry: RegistryService ``` The plugin registry. Its methods are mixed onto `ctx` (`ctx.plugin`, `ctx.inject`). [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L32) ## Static members ### Context.effect ```ts website-api static readonly effect: unique symbol ``` Symbol key under which a disposer exposes its EffectMeta diagnostics tree. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L44) ### Context.filter ```ts website-api static readonly filter: unique symbol ``` Symbol key for a context's listener filter, consulted on every event dispatch. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L46) ### Context.isolate ```ts website-api static readonly isolate: unique symbol ``` Symbol key of the isolation map (see the `Context[symbols.isolate]` property). [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L48) ### Context.intercept ```ts website-api static readonly intercept: unique symbol ``` Symbol key of the intercept map (see the `Context[symbols.intercept]` property). [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L50) ### Context.is(value) ```ts website-api static is(value: any): value is Context ``` Returns true for Cordis context proxies and context prototypes. Works across realms and across multiple copies of cordis, because the brand is keyed by a global symbol rather than by `instanceof`. - `value` — the value to test. **Returns** `true` if `value` is a Cordis context, narrowing its type. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/context.ts#L61) ## Service store and mixins ### ctx.get(name, strict?) ```ts website-api get(name: K, strict?: boolean): undefined | this[K] get(name: string, strict?: boolean): any ``` Read a service from the store without the inject requirement. - `name` — the service name. - `strict` — when `true` (default), only return implementations whose providing fiber is currently active. **Returns** the service value, or `undefined` when not (yet) provided. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/reflect.ts#L16) ### ctx.set(name, value) ```ts website-api set(name: K, value: undefined | this[K]): void set(name: string, value: any): void ``` Overwrite a provided service's value. Only the fiber that provided the service may set it; setting an unprovided name throws. - `name` — the service name. - `value` — the new service value. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/reflect.ts#L28) ### ctx.provide(name, value) ```ts website-api provide(name: K, value: undefined | this[K]): () => void provide(name: string, value?: any): () => void ``` Register a service implementation owned by the current fiber. The service becomes visible to dependents in the same isolation scope once the fiber is active; it is unregistered (waking dependents) when the returned disposer runs or the fiber unloads. Throws if the name is already provided in this scope or declared as an accessor. - `name` — the service name. - `value` — the service value. **Returns** a disposer that unregisters the service. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/reflect.ts#L43) ### ctx.accessor(name, options) ```ts website-api accessor(name: string, options: Omit): void ``` Define a computed context property backed by get/set hooks. The accessor is removed when the current fiber unloads. Throws if the name is already declared. - `name` — the context property name. - `options` — the `get` hook and optional `set` hook. [Source](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/blob/master/vendor/cordis/src/reflect.ts#L55) ### ctx.mixin(name, mixins) ```ts website-api mixin(name: K, mixins: (keyof this & keyof this[K])[] | Dict): void mixin(source: T, mixins: (keyof this & keyof T)[] | Dict): void ``` Expose selected members of a service directly on `ctx`. Each mixed-in key becomes an accessor that forwards to the service (binding methods to it), so e.g. `ctx.on` forwards to `ctx.events.on`. Mixins are removed when the current fiber unloads. - `name` — the context property holding the source service. - `mixins` — keys to forward, or a source-key → ctx-key map.
