Review discussion converged on the industry shape (Claude Code caches user context per conversation; Codex separates initial context from diffs; Kimi appends at continuation boundaries to protect prompt caching): stable openers belong in a compose-once prefix, mid-session changes belong in append-only history — not in a per-request slot. agent/session-prefix fires ONCE per loop instance, lazily on its first request-building step: the composed Message[] is deep-frozen, cached on the transmission bookkeeping, recorded as EpochHeader.messagePrefix on the anchoring 'initial'/'resume' snapshot, and reused verbatim for every request the instance sends — prefix stability is structural, not a producer discipline, and a resume recomposes with attributable drift. The request is messagePrefix + boundary snapshot. The per-step RequestAdvice/RequestAdviceContext surface and the messageSuffix header field are dropped: the tail slot had no consumer, and every current update pattern (new AGENTS.md discovered, memory update, skills change) routes through the existing append-only history channels — inject(), tools/post-execute additionalContext, prompt-submit additionalContext — each paid once and prefix-cached thereafter. The messagePrefix delta arm stays for codec totality; the loop never produces one in practice.
support/ — dev/test/example infrastructure
Packages that exist to serve development, testing, and the examples rather than to ship as product API. They are real workspace packages (typed, tested, under the coverage gate), but they carry lower compatibility expectations: they may change or be removed when the development need behind them does, without the deprecation care a product package would warrant.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
invariants/ |
Dev-mode event-contract invariants + session-log freeze | (listens on session/*, agent/*) |
llm-replay/ |
Record/replay adapter: short-circuits llm/stream from a recorded session JSONL (keyless snapshot tests) |
(listens on llm/stream) |
subagent-mock/ |
Scripted SubagentProvider for deterministic seam/tool tests |
(registers on ctx.subagents) |
invariants runs only in dev mode (contract checks, not runtime behavior). llm-replay backs the demos and the snapshot test tier under the per-file coverage gate. subagent-mock exercises the real ctx.subagents load path without a model or child agent. A package graduates OUT of support/ into a product group only when it gains documented product consumers.
