Lifts the RFC 010 § Deferred restriction that the server had to launch in the
workspace ("cwd must equal the launch directory"). An editor can now open any
project folder, and N concurrent sessions over one connection can each target a
different directory.
- packages/acp: drop the `cwd === process.cwd()` guard in validateWorkspaceParams
(keep "must be absolute" — the cwd becomes the session header / bash workdir),
and drop the persisted-cwd-vs-launch-dir check in session/load (a resumed
session keeps its original header.cwd, so its bash tools run in its workspace).
- packages/tool-bash: the missing link — default the bash workdir to the calling
agent's session cwd (`exec.agent.session.header.cwd`) via a new resolveWorkdir
helper. An explicit model `workdir` still wins; a relative one resolves against
the session cwd. This is the only correct spot for multi-session: N sessions
share one ctx.bash executor, so the workdir must come per-call from exec.agent,
not executor config. Falls back to the executor default when no session cwd is
available (preserves non-ACP behavior).
- Trust: the cwd originates from the ACP client (the user's editor) at
session/new — same trust level as the old launch dir; no new untrusted-input
path. `additionalDirectories` (scope widening / sandbox) stays rejected.
- Tests: bridge accepts any absolute cwd + records it on the header; session/load
honors the persisted cwd; bash defaults to / resolves relative against the
session cwd; two sessions with different cwds each run bash in their own dir;
non-absolute cwd still rejected. 100% per-file coverage maintained.
- Docs: RFC 010 status + § Deferred cwd bullet marked RESOLVED; acp README adds a
Per-session cwd section; tool-bash + example READMEs and e2e comments updated.
Packages
Harness packages, all under the @deepseek-ai/dsh-* scope. Each package is a Cordis service (microkernel plugin-style): it exports a default Service class that gets registered via ctx.plugin(), declares its ctx key and events through declaration merging, and exposes extension points through ctx.effect(), ctx.on(), and ctx.waterfall().
Dependency graph
dsh-llm (no harness deps — pure vocabulary)
dsh-bash (no harness deps — abstract executor seam)
dsh-session ← dsh-llm
dsh-system-prompt ← dsh-llm
dsh-agent ← dsh-llm, dsh-session
dsh-tools ← dsh-llm, dsh-system-prompt, dsh-agent
dsh-bash-local ← dsh-bash (BashExecutor impl)
dsh-tool-bash ← dsh-bash, dsh-tools (bash tool schemas)
dsh-llm-deepseek ← dsh-llm (DeepSeek adapter)
dsh-llm-pi-ai ← dsh-llm (pi-ai-backed adapter)
dsh-agent-loop ← dsh-llm, dsh-session, dsh-system-prompt, dsh-tools, dsh-agent
dsh-invariants ← dsh-llm, dsh-session, dsh-agent (dev-mode contract checks)
dsh-acp ← dsh-agent, dsh-llm, dsh-session, dsh-session-persistence (ACP JSON-RPC bridge)
The rule: plugins depend on interfaces, never on the concrete loop. dsh-agent-loop is swappable — UI/hook/tool plugins keep working against the dsh-agent vocabulary if the loop is replaced. A swappable capability splits into interface / implementation / consumer packages (the bash trio is the template — see ADR 0009).

Conventions (applied across all harness packages)
- Registrations are effects: every contribution (adapter, tool, section, agent, event listener) goes through
ctx.effect()/ctx.on(), so disposal and HMR clean up automatically. Everyregister()returns the disposer. - Declaration merging for events and ctx: services declare their events in
declare module 'cordis' { interface Events { ... } }and their ctx key ininterface Context. - Waterfall semantics:
ctx.waterfalllisteners receive(...args, next)and MUST callnext()to delegate; returning without it short-circuits (the veto mechanism). - Extensible unions:
ContentBlockMap,MessageSourceMap,FinishReasonMap,TurnTriggerMap,TurnEndReasonMap, andSessionEventMapuse the merge-extensible-map pattern so plugins can add variants via declaration merging. - ESM everywhere; imports use package names across package boundaries,
.tsextensions within a package. - Tests: vitest, colocated under
packages/<name>/tests/*.spec.ts. Every registry needs an HMR-safety test. Err on the side of more tests.
