 The session log shape, agent event taxonomy, ACP rendering, snapshot/replay fixtures, and whether live uncommitted chunks are ever durably recorded are downstream integration decisions. So is the fate of today's assembled public helper methods: [PR #82](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/82) implements the proposed removal of `generate()`, `streamBlocks()`, `GenerateResult`, and `llm/generate`, and this RFC should not resurrect them without a real caller. This RFC should constrain downstream work only by the LLM API contract above.
 
+The current simplification stack was checked while drafting this proposal. [PR #83](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/83) and [PR #85](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/85) do not change this RFC's LLM API assumptions. [PR #86](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/86) does matter for later integration because it folds durable token usage onto `assistant/message` and operational errors onto `turn/end.reason`; if it lands first, the LLM recovery implementation should still stop at the `dsh-llm` lifecycle contract here and let the agent/session layer decide how committed usage and terminal failures map onto those load-bearing product events.

 ## Out of scope
 
 This RFC does not propose silent mid-stream continuation after user-visible output. That requires a separate model-history design: either provider-supported prefill/continuation, a recovery prompt that explicitly shows the partial assistant output, or a UI affordance that marks the partial answer as failed and asks the model to continue in a new step. Splicing two API responses into one assistant message is rejected.

 - Revises the scope implied by [Two LLM adapters as a design-verification twin](../../implemented/architecture/2026-06-13-twin-llm-adapters.md): the twin validated chunk shape and error delivery paths, but it also exposed that delivery paths are not enough for unstable API recovery.
 - Extends [Structured error taxonomy](../../implemented/architecture/2026-06-11-structured-error-taxonomy.md): `HarnessError.code` was the foundation; LLM API recovery needs a richer payload because retry/failover policy cannot safely branch on one flat string.
 - Coordinates with [PR #82](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/82), which implements the `drop-unconsumed-llm-assembled-surfaces` and `drop-unconsumed-llm-adapter-change-event` simplification RFCs. If that PR lands first, this RFC starts from a narrower `dsh-llm`: no `generate()`, no `streamBlocks()`, no `GenerateResult`, no `llm/generate`, and no `llm/adapter-change`. Recovery should build on that baseline rather than revive removed convenience or change-notification surfaces speculatively.
+- Is orthogonal to [PR #81](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/81), which proposes provider-request app attribution headers. Recovery route metadata and provider request construction can carry attribution policy later, but this RFC does not define request headers.
 - Coordinates with [PR #84](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/84), which implements the branded-id RFC. The new response/route/model ids introduced here are exactly the sort of cross-boundary ids that need an explicit branding decision before implementation.
+- Coordinates with [PR #86](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/pull/86), which implements the `collapse-trace-only-session-events` simplification RFC. If that stack lands first, downstream recovery integration should map committed usage and terminal error facts onto the surviving load-bearing session events instead of reintroducing standalone trace-only records from inside `dsh-llm`.
