The tasks/ family now matches the capability-seam shape: @deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks keeps the abstract TaskService (ctx.tasks contract, vocabulary types, snapshot invariant companion) and the new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks-local carries the process-local registry (LocalTaskService: in-memory store, settlement, owner-cleanup effects, teardown, TASK_WAIT_TIMEOUT). Compositions and test harnesses now load dsh-tasks-local; producers, TaskKindMap merges, and dsh-tool-tasks keep importing the seam only. Producer misconfiguration diagnostics name dsh-tasks-local because loading the implementation is the fix. The registry behavior suite moves to tasks-local; the seam keeps a stub-subclass registration test and the probe-based invariant suite.
subagent/ — subagent capability family
The subagent seam: an agent delegating work to a child agent. Like the bash and llm families this is a capability seam (see capability seams) — but with one defining difference: multiple provider implementations coexist in one context, registered by name, rather than the single-implementation bash shape. The registry mirrors the LLM adapter registry.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
subagent/ |
Abstract subagent seam: named-provider registry + vocabulary | ctx.subagents |
subagent-inprocess/ |
Shared in-process run driver (no provider; one cleanup effect per run) | — |
subagent-spawn/ |
In-process backend: a fresh child agent | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
subagent-fork/ |
In-process backend: a child seeded with the parent's completed-turn prefix | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
subagent-subprocess/ |
Shared out-of-process machinery: env scrub, dispose ladder, isolated config dirs (pure lib; registers nothing) | — |
subagent-acp/ |
Out-of-process backend: a child agent in a spawned subprocess, driven over ACP | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
tool-subagent/ |
Model-facing subagent delegation tool over ctx.subagents |
(registers on ctx.tools) |
The interface lives at subagent/subagent/. The in-process subagent-spawn / subagent-fork backends share the subagent-inprocess driver (a library with no provider of its own — both depend on it, neither on the other), and the out-of-process subagent-acp backend builds on the subagent-subprocess library (the credential env scrub, the dispose ladder, isolated config dirs). Tests replace only the child boundary with package-local fixtures.
