The first OUT-OF-PROCESS subagent backend, proving the seam generalizes past the in-process backends. @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-acp runs each child agent in a spawned subprocess, driven over the Agent Client Protocol as the CLIENT — the direction-inverted twin of the dsh-acp server bridge. Point the configured command at the acp-agent example and the harness talks to its own process. - Fresh process per run: start spawns, runs one ACP session (initialize → newSession → prompt), dispose kills the subprocess and awaits its exit. - Minimal client stub: advertises no fs/terminal; accumulates agent_message_chunk text as the result output; auto-answers session/request_permission by a configured policy (reject default / allow). No start-time capabilities (an out-of-process child can't enforce the parent's depth/tool-filter); ignores request.parent; injects only `subagents`. - StopReason mapping (end_turn→completed, cancelled→aborted, …); result resolves error/aborted on a child failure, never rejects (seam contract). - Security: credential-shaped ambient env vars are scrubbed; the child's own key is forwarded only via explicit config.env. A spawn-level error (ENOENT) is captured and raced against the ACP drive so a bad command settles error rather than crashing the parent. Testing designed at every tier: keyless integration drives a scripted mock ACP server subprocess (cancellation incl. the pre-newSession race and a torn-pipe-after-cancel, permission auto-answer, non-message updates, spawn failure, HMR, export shape) at 100% coverage; a with-key e2e drives the REAL acp-agent example process (PONG + real file write, verified on disk) — the harness driving itself. Snapshot coverage of an ACP child is deferred as TODO(acp-subagent-replay) (each child is its own process with its own replay). Stayed on @agentclientprotocol/sdk 0.25.1: the proposed 0.28.x bump only deprecates the stable ClientSideConnection/AgentSideConnection API this layer uses (33 sites incl. the server bridge), turning no-deprecated red across code this PR shouldn't rewrite — that fluent-API migration is its own follow-up. The backend needs nothing 0.28.x adds. This completes the subagent seam stack (PR1 interface → PR2 in-process → PR2.5 snapshot infra → PR3 ACP); the seam RFC moves to implemented/, amended.

# @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent
|
|
|
|
The model-facing `subagent` tool: delegate a self-contained task to a child agent and return its final output. Pure schema + lifecycle shaping over the [`ctx.subagents`](../subagent/README.md) provider registry — an in-process, ACP, or future A2A backend swaps in without changing what the model sees.
|
|
|
|
## Provider selection is config, not model-facing
|
|
|
|
This plugin binds to **exactly one** provider (`Config.provider`). The model sees only `{ description, prompt }` — there is no provider/type parameter in the schema. To expose more than one transport, load the plugin more than once, each bound to a different provider **and a distinct `toolName`** (the tool registry rejects a duplicate name, so a second load that kept the default `subagent` name would throw). Keeping selection in config (not the schema) is the deliberate split: the *service* holds a multi-provider registry; the *tool* picks one.
|
|
|
|
| Config key | Meaning |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `provider` (required) | The `ctx.subagents` provider name to start runs on (`spawn`, `fork`, `acp`, …). |
|
|
| `toolName` | The model-facing tool name to register (default `subagent`). Set a distinct value per load when exposing multiple providers, e.g. `subagent` + `subagent_acp`. |
|
|
| `agentOptions` | Default per-child `{ model?, systemPrompt? }` applied to every spawned child. |
|
|
|
|
## Lifecycle (synchronous collect)
|
|
|
|
`execute` starts a run on the configured provider and **awaits `run.result` inside a `try/finally` that always `dispose()`s the run** — the owned child agent/session is torn down on every path (success, error, abort), never leaked. The tool's abort signal (`exec.signal`) is bridged to `run.cancel()`. A non-`completed` stop reason (aborted/error/max-tokens/refusal) maps to an `isError` tool result rather than returning partial output as success.
|
|
|
|
Background / poll collection is deferred (see the [RFC](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-06-21-subagent-capability-seam.md)); this cut blocks the parent turn until the child finishes.
