Tianyi Cui e7b712453a test: close the per-file coverage gaps for the scoping surface
Every subject-extractor row of the invariants carrier table is exercised
with a matching and a foreign-keyed carrier; the HMR re-apply seed path
(sessions of agents that predate the plugin are marked started) is pinned;
the scoped tool-provider disposal, plural restrict() validation, singular
scopeHost absentee, tool-subagent passthrough, stale-stage drop, and
disposing-parent spawn (INACTIVE_EFFECT, no orphan) each gain their test.
Two genuinely defensive branches carry justified v8-ignore markers.

@deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-spawn

The in-process spawn subagent backend: a SubagentProvider that runs each child as a fresh child Agent on the same cordis context (ctx.agents) — its own session, its own (or the parent's) model, zero inherited conversation. The cheapest transport, reusing the agent factory's quiescent AgentHandle teardown.

The run mechanics live in the shared @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-inprocess driver (startInProcessRun); this backend just passes no seed (a fresh child). The fork backend is an independent peer over the same driver — neither knows about the other.

What it does

start(request) delegates to startInProcessRun(ctx, request, { providerName }) with no seed: a fresh child agent with the parent's cwd/parentSession lineage and (by default) the parent's model. See the driver README for the full lifecycle (depth check, one-shot drive, result read, dispose).

Capabilities

{ outputSchema: true, depthLimit: true, toolFilter: false }. It constructs the child, so it enforces a recursion cap, and it supports structured output via the driver's structured runtime (acquired per structured run inside the driver — this backend registers nothing at apply). Tool-scoping is deferred (the service rejects a request needing it before start runs).
