A Codex review pass on the draft caught four real gaps and two solid suggestions; all addressed except one pushed back on the merits: - hooks-claude/hooks-codex: stderrSummaryMaxChars was the one new knob with NO range validation — a negative/NaN cap would silently misbehave inside slice(). Both bridges now assert a positive integer at the TOP of apply() (before the config-file parse's early return, so a bad value fails the load loudly), with rejection tests. - tool-fs: the read caps count lines/chars/bytes, so positive-FINITE was too loose (a fractional readLimit would flow into windowing arithmetic and the schema description). All four now require a positive integer, matching tool-web's cap. - Doc drift the gates cannot catch: tool-web's README tools table still named WEB_SEARCH_MAX_RESULTS as the mechanism; compact-basic's README/module doc and the compaction-capability-seam RFC still described estimation as fixed char/4 rather than the charsPerToken default. - subagent-acp: the dispose graces were tested only at the startAcpRun level, so a regression that stopped threading plugin config into AcpRunSpec would have survived. A provider-path test now drives the trap-escalation scenario through ctx.subagents.start with small config graces and bounds dispose at 4s. Pushed back on: converting compact-basic's charsPerToken to a schemastery field. The package's whole config is deliberately hand-rolled (resolveConfig, every threshold REQUIRED with no default — a documented design posture); one schemastery field beside it would be incoherent. The knob is cordis.yml-reachable, defaulted, and validated, which is what the convention requires; migrating the package to schemastery wholesale is pre-existing config-surface hygiene out of this change's scope.
compact/ — compaction capability family
A three-package capability seam (see capability seams): an abstract compaction interface, a backend that summarizes, and the model-facing tool that consumes it. The interface and a first backend (compact-basic/) exist; the consumer tool is deferred. All product packages.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
compact/ |
Abstract compaction seam (interface + compact/* events + CompactionResult) |
ctx.compact |
compact-basic/ |
A backend: char/4 estimation + token-budget retention + llm.stream() summarization |
(registers ctx.compact) |
tool-compact/ (deferred) |
Model-facing /compact tool over ctx.compact |
(registers on ctx.tools) |
The interface lives at compact/compact/, the backend at compact/compact-basic/. Unlike the bash seam, it depends on dsh-session and dsh-llm — its verbs are defined over a Session and its output is the ContentBlock vocabulary, so the contract cannot be expressed without naming them. That deviation from the "interface depends only on cordis" guidance is intentional and recorded in the compaction capability-seam RFC. A tokenizer- or template-based backend would replace compact-basic without touching the interface or the tool.
