@deepseek-ai/dsh-bash
The bash executor seam: an abstract BashExecutor service (ctx.bash) defining WHAT a bash backend does — run commands, manage background tasks — without saying HOW.
This package is one third of the bash capability, split so each concern can evolve (and be swapped) independently:
| Package | Role |
|---|---|
@deepseek-ai/dsh-bash (this) |
the interface: abstract service + vocabulary types |
@deepseek-ai/dsh-bash-local |
an implementation: local subprocesses |
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-bash |
the model-facing tool schemas over ctx.bash |
The split mirrors the LLM seam (LlmService/LlmAdapter) and the agent-tool survey: pi hides execution behind a BashOperations interface (local shell / SSH / VM backends), Codex behind an exec-server protocol. A future sandboxed, containerized, or remote executor implements this interface and the tool schemas don't change.
Service API (ctx.bash)
| Member | Semantics |
|---|---|
run(spec) |
Foreground execution. Resolves when the command finishes. Rejects only for infrastructure failures (unusable workdir, missing shell, pre-aborted signal); nonzero exits, timeout kills, and abort kills resolve with a descriptive BashRunResult. |
start(spec) |
Background execution. Returns a BashTask handle immediately; no timeout applies (stop tasks via kill). |
get(id) / list() |
Task lookup. |
readOutput(id) |
Incremental output read — consecutive reads never re-deliver. Reads that lost data to buffer bounds flag lossy and point at full-stream spill files. Throws for unknown ids. |
kill(id) |
Kill a running task. Returns false when it already finished; throws for unknown ids. |
onTaskDone(listener) |
Completion listener (effect-based, disposer returned). Fires exactly once per task; never after the service is disposed. |
Implementations subclass BashExecutor, implement the abstract methods, and call notifyTaskDone(task) on background completion. Disposal must kill every running task (no orphan processes) — see the HMR-safety tests.
Vocabulary
BashExecRequest (command, workdir?, timeoutMs?, signal?) resolves to BashExecSpec (command, workdir, timeoutMs, signal?) before execution; run() returns BashRunResult (exitCode, signal, timedOut, aborted, timeoutMs, stdout/stderr as CollectedOutput) and start()/readOutput() use BashTask/BashTaskRead for the background side. See src/types.ts for the full contracts.
