The API gateway every client shape shares: the TS contract (src/api/, zero Node dependencies, importable from the browser), the fetch carrier pair (src/fetch/: toFetchHandler on the host side, AbstractApiClient plus platform subclasses on the client side), and the host-side implementation (src/api-proxy.ts: createApiProxy plus the default-exported ApiProxyService gateway plugin — config {provider, model, workspaceRoot?}, provides ctx.apiProxy). Transport-agnostic by design: this package registers no routes; carriers (HTTP today, IPC later) wrap ctx.apiProxy themselves. The shipped core composition lives in apps/cli/cordis.yml.

Contract layer (/api)

Wire messages form a four-quadrant discriminated union — who initiates × request/response — decoupled from the physical channel: ClientRequest (POST /api/<method> body), ServerResponse (that POST's response body), ServerRequest (SSE frame), ClientResponse (POST /api/respond body). Responses always echo the matching request's rpcId and never mint a new one. Method parameter/return structures live only in the domain interface signatures (SessionsApi, HostApi, EventsApi); RpcMethodMap registers the methods and every other position derives via RequestPayload<K>/ResponseValue<K>. Zod schemas anchor satisfies z.ZodType<Wire<T>> and parse at two levels: envelope first, business payload second, dispatched per method. Business errors ride RpcResult's error branch (RpcErrorDetailsMap closes the code set); HTTP status expresses only the carrier.

The layering/protocol decisions are recorded in the GUI layering and RPC protocol RFC; the browser-side consumption architecture in the web client architecture RFC.

The mux stream projects the latest log-backed title as a validated session/title control frame after each attached-session subscription baseline and immediately after the corresponding live raw title event. This projection does not add titles to session.list; cold sessions remain metadata-only there until opening or resuming attaches their logs.

Session model routing is a session-domain contract. session.models returns the selected provider/model/reasoning target with provider-grouped advisory models, exact-route reasoning metadata, and provider-local lookup failures. session.selectModel validates the optional adapter-owned reasoning effort and replaces the complete target selected for the next prompt-assembly boundary. Catalog membership is not validation: an adapter may resolve an unlisted model, while an unavailable route or unsupported effort returns model-unavailable.

Workspace and Session lists are separate reconnect baselines. workspace.create creates a unique name or adopts an existing directory, workspace.delete removes only the Workspace registration, session.create accepts an optional preallocated Session id, and host/workspace-changed, host/workspace-removed, plus host/session-added carry committed increments in either arrival order. Registration deletion preserves the directory and session logs; its Sessions remain in session.list and become Ungrouped. SessionSummary.blank and the host/session-added frame carry the derived zero-events bit: clients hide blank sessions and reuse them per workspace, flip blank on the first host/session-status(running:true), and treat session.list as the reconnect authority; cold summaries are never blank because lazy persistence keeps never-appended sessions out of list().

host.pickDirectory opens one native directory picker and returns its selected path, or null when the user cancels. Its host implementation invokes platform tools without a shell: osascript on macOS, an STA PowerShell FolderBrowserDialog on Windows, and Zenity with a KDialog fallback on Linux. The picker function is injectable for tests. This user-paced method is the sole unary call exempt from the default 30-second timeout; caller and connection aborts still propagate to the native process. The browser carrier separately restricts this privileged method to loopback, same-origin requests.

host.openPath opens a filesystem path with the operating system's default application (open on macOS, Invoke-Item on Windows, xdg-open on Linux). The opener is injectable for tests. The browser carrier applies the same loopback, same-origin restriction as host.pickDirectory.

session.history pages on message boundaries, and its tail page (no beforeSeq) carries session-level projections the page window cannot supply: the in-flight partial's chunk events; todos, the latest todo/write whole-list projection; and metrics, full-log usage deduplicated by (turn, step) plus current token-meter pressure and exact selected-route capacity when available. Older pages omit the session-level projections. Live session/metrics mux frames carry monotonic log/projection revisions, so clients reject stale frames and preserve the counters while prepending older pages. Cache reads and writes remain disjoint buckets; the cache-hit denominator is uncached input plus cache reads.

The command.* and skill.* domains expose the host command registry and skill catalog to clients. Every method addresses one session's agent by sessionId (a served session always has an Agent; command.* resumes cold sessions through the same path as session.*, while skill.list resolves the project root from the session header without touching the Agent registry). command.execute runs a slash-command line host-side and returns a detached result; the carrier's request signal cancels the running handler. host/commands-changed is the catalog invalidation frame: clients refetch command.list instead of diffing.

Carrier layer (/client + root)

AbstractApiClient holds every protocol invariant — rpcId minting, envelope wrap/unwrap, zod parsing, SSE frame decoding, unary timeout, microtask-batched envelope observation (subscribeEnvelopes) — while platform subclasses supply only the doFetch transport aspect. InProcessApiClient over toFetchHandler(api) is the isomorphic point: the full wire serialization/validation path with no network, used by dsh -p headless.

Model Experience

None, as the package defines the client↔host wire contract and carriers; nothing here reaches a model request.

KV Cache effect

None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.

Known Limitations and Deferred Work

• respond routing is shipped, but pending-interaction state is host-side work — the wire shape (POST /api/respond, RpcReceipt) is final; the pending table that makes late/duplicate answers meaningful lives in src/api-proxy.ts and is still minimal (questions only, no approvals).
• Reserved seams stay out of RpcMethodMap — session.fork, prompt.mode: 'inject', task.list, host.listModels, and a describe hostInstanceId are documented reservations; an unknown method fails loud at envelope parse rather than getting a not-implemented code.
• No protocol version field — client and host ship together; host.describe gains a version negotiation field only when an independently released client exists.
• Linux native picker requires desktop tooling — host.pickDirectory reports an actionable error when neither Zenity nor KDialog is installed; it does not fall back to a custom or typed-path browser.
