 ## Decision
 
-**One primitive, three preset aliases.** The `Agent` interface's `send(input, { target, wakeup })` covers the (`target` × `wakeup`) matrix. Its `UserMessageData` input owns the inseparable model-facing `content` and producer `source`; the complete `SendOptions` owns only routing policy. `followup` (`next-turn`/wakeup), `steer` (`next-step`/wakeup), and `inject` (`next-step`/no-wakeup) each accept that one input and fix the policy. `wakeup` means "make the model run": wake a parked driver for a `next-turn` item, or force a continuation for a running `next-step` item. `next-turn`/no-wakeup (queue without waking) is representable with no alias and no current caller.
+**One primitive, three preset aliases.** The `Agent` interface's `send(message, { target, wakeup })` covers the (`target` × `wakeup`) matrix. Its complete `UserMessage` owns identity, role, model-facing `content`, and producer `source`; the complete `SendOptions` owns only routing policy. `followup` (`next-turn`/wakeup), `steer` (`next-step`/wakeup), and `inject` (`next-step`/no-wakeup) each accept that one message and fix the policy. `wakeup` means "make the model run": wake a parked driver for a `next-turn` item, or force a continuation for a running `next-step` item. `next-turn`/no-wakeup (queue without waking) is representable with no alias and no current caller.
 
-**inject keeps its mechanism.** The `next-step`/no-wakeup path is exactly the old `inject`: durable model-facing context appended at the current log position, deferred while prompt admission or a turn owns the next safe boundary, and appended directly outside that window. It bypasses the FIFOs entirely, while its required `UserMessageData.source` preserves the caller's explicit provenance.

It bypasses the FIFOs entirely, while its required `UserMessage.source` preserves the caller's explicit provenance.
 
 **context/message is gone.** Injected context is now a `user/message`; context producers supply the appropriate non-user `source` explicitly, and typed source variants carry any domain-specific durable provenance. The surface, derivation, and `SurfaceEventType` drop `context/message`; consumers that need "is this a human prompt?" read `source.kind === 'user'` instead of the event type.
 
 **Goal replay disambiguates by round, not type.** A goal state change is a round-zero goal-sourced `user/message` whose source carries the complete change; a positive round is an admitted continuation prompt. `decodeGoalEvent` takes a `user/message` and fails loud when goal-state content and its typed source disagree.
 
-**`send` returns an id.** `send` (and the aliases) return an opaque branded `AgentMessageId` for the accepted message; `send`'s previous return was `void`.
+**`send` returns the message id.** `send` and its aliases return the complete message's existing opaque `MessageId`; creation and freezing are owned by the [identified immutable message decision](2026-07-28-identified-immutable-message-values.md), not by routing.
 
-**Three inbox events replace agent/queued.** `agent/inbox/enqueue` (an item entered a FIFO), `agent/inbox/dequeue` (the driver claimed one), and `agent/inbox/discard` (`cancel()` dropped pending items) type their `AgentMessage` payload with only the accepted message's returned `id`, content, and source. Enqueue separately carries the resolved `queued | steering` placement captured by the producer at acceptance time, so observers and reconnect mirrors never reconstruct routing from later status or session history. Injection never touches a FIFO and emits none of these. Every FIFO entry publishes an enqueue, including steering submitted by an `agent/turn-stopping` listener, so the ledger stays balanced with its later dequeue or discard. The `dsh-agent` invariant companion asserts FIFO conservation: a per-agent outstanding count that dequeue and discard can never drive negative.
+**Three inbox events replace agent/queued.** `agent/inbox/enqueue` (an item entered a FIFO), `agent/inbox/dequeue` (the driver claimed one), and `agent/inbox/discard` (`cancel()` dropped pending items) carry the accepted `UserMessage`.

Every FIFO entry publishes an enqueue, including steering submitted by an `agent/turn-stopping` listener, so the ledger stays balanced with its later dequeue or discard. The `dsh-agent` invariant companion asserts FIFO conservation: a per-agent outstanding count that dequeue and discard can never drive negative.
 
 **Admission accepts next-step input without becoming a turn.** The loop opens a private next-step acceptance window before `agent/prompt-submit`, keeps it open through the turn, and closes it before `turn/end`. Steering and injection received during admission therefore remain together in the outbox and join an allowed turn. If admission blocks or fails, a context-only caller batch takes idle injection's immediate append, while steering and context staged beside it remain available to retry; neither path writes the rejected prompt. When a later prompt is admitted, retained outbox input enters its turn before that prompt, while input accepted during the current admission remains after the prompt. Closing the window before `turn/end` preserves the rule that reentrant late steering becomes an independent queued turn. `Agent.acceptsNextStep` exposes whether a `next-step` send would currently join this window; `status` remains the broader activity signal rather than a routing predicate.
 
-**One accepted message keeps one representation.** Durable user-role input and additional model-facing context both use `UserMessageData { content, source }` directly; public `AgentMessage` extends it with the correlation `id`, and the loop-private `PendingMessage` extends that with `wakeup`. The loop clones and freezes `UserMessageData` before publication, queueing, or immediate append, so later caller or observer mutation cannot change the accepted value. A queued message that becomes steering enters the outbox as the same `PendingMessage` object, while injected and tool-produced context enters as plain `UserMessageData`. The outbox therefore stores their union directly instead of wrapping steering beside a duplicate copy of its content and source. Provider-native assistant messages remain adapter-owned output types and do not participate in this input hierarchy.
+**One accepted message keeps one representation.** Durable user-role input and additional model-facing context both use the identified, frozen `UserMessage` directly. The loop stores that value beside private routing state rather than copying its identity, content, or source into another public shape. A queued message that becomes steering keeps the same message value in the outbox, while injected and tool-produced context each carry their own identified message. The [identified immutable message decision](2026-07-28-identified-immutable-message-values.md) supersedes this note's former `UserMessageData`/`AgentMessage` hierarchy and extends the representation to assistant and tool-result messages.
 
 **Idle wakeup follows acceptance.** Before publishing enqueue, a waking queued send installs quiescence ownership and schedules driver admission for a microtask that runs after the id returns. Every send in one synchronous caller stack therefore resolves placement against the same pre-admission state, while reentrant cancellation or teardown cannot retire before the scheduled admission settles. Two idle `steer()` calls remain two FIFO turns instead of the first opening an admission window that captures the second.

-- **A typed discriminant field on `UserMessageData`** (e.g. `origin: 'prompt' | 'context'`) to replace the event-type split. Rejected in favor of `source`, which every consumer already carries and which the goal system already keyed on; a second discriminant would duplicate that fact.

-**一条已接受消息只保留一种表示。** 持久的用户角色输入和附加的模型可见上下文都直接使用 `UserMessageData { content, source }`；公开的 `AgentMessage` 在此基础上增加用于关联的 `id`，循环私有的 `PendingMessage` 再增加 `wakeup`。循环会在发布、入队或立即追加前克隆并冻结 `UserMessageData`，因此调用方或观察方后续的修改无法改变已接受的值。一条成为 steering 的排队消息会以同一个 `PendingMessage` 对象进入 outbox，而注入和工具产生的上下文则以普通 `UserMessageData` 进入。因此，outbox 直接存储这两种类型的联合，而不再把 steering 与一份重复的内容和来源副本包装在一起。提供方原生的助手消息仍是适配器拥有的输出类型，不参与这套输入层级。
+**一条已接受消息只保留一种表示。** 持久的用户角色输入和附加的模型可见上下文都直接使用带标识且冻结的 `UserMessage`。循环把该值与私有路由状态存放在一起，不会将其标识、内容或来源复制到另一种公开形状中。一条成为 steering 的排队消息会在 outbox 中保留同一个消息值，而注入和工具产生的上下文则各自携带带标识的消息。[带标识的不可变消息值决策](2026-07-28-identified-immutable-message-values.md)取代了本记录此前的 `UserMessageData`/`AgentMessage` 层级，并将这一表示扩展到 assistant 消息和工具结果消息。
 
 **空闲唤醒在接受之后发生。** 在发布 enqueue 前，一次会唤醒驱动器的排队发送会先取得完全停稳所有权，并把驱动器准入调度到一个会在该次发送返回 id 后运行的微任务中。因此，同一同步调用栈中的每次发送都会基于同一份准入前状态解析放置方式，而可重入的取消或拆除在已调度的准入结算前无法完成退役。空闲时的两次 `steer()` 调用会保留为两个 FIFO 轮次，而不会因第一次调用打开准入窗口而把第二次吸纳进去。

+# Agent Note: Create every message as an identified immutable value
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-28-identified-immutable-message-values.zh.md)
+
+## Problem
+
+The harness had several message-shaped representations with different identity rules. Agent input acquired an inbox correlation id only when the loop accepted it, while durable user messages, assistant messages, tool results, and model-request messages could have no identity. Prompt admission therefore sat between creation and identity, and equivalent content was copied across live events, durable events, and model requests without one value that named the message throughout its lifetime.
+
+This made identity a routing side effect rather than a message invariant. Producers could not refer to a message before calling the agent, prompt hooks received content and source separately, and later projections had to reconstruct a message while deciding whether an id existed. Immutability also began at different boundaries: some inputs were frozen by the loop, some only by session append, and provider-produced assistant output used a separate provenance-bearing shape.
+
+## Decision
+
+`@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm` owns one `Message` value with required `id`, `role`, `content`, and `source`. `MessageId` is opaque and shared by user, assistant, and tool-result messages. A message receives its id at creation, before routing, prompt admission, durable append, or request projection. The same id survives every representation boundary.
+
+`createMessage(input)` is the canonical role-generic creation boundary. It mints a `MessageId`, detaches the supplied role, content, and source, and deep-freezes the complete value before returning it. `createUserMessage({ content, source })` fixes the user role for prompt and context producers. `createAssistantMessage({ content, source })` fixes both the assistant role and the model source kind, so model-output producers supply only content and model provenance. All creation helpers exclude an input id so callers cannot accidentally present creation as import. `freezeMessage(message)` is the separate import or transformation boundary: it detaches and deep-freezes a message whose identity already exists, without minting a replacement.
+
+The helpers live in `dsh-llm` beside the base message vocabulary because their complete contracts depend only on that vocabulary. `createToolResultMessage()` belongs with the other creation helpers: it couples a tool call id to the exact user-role tool-result block and source without depending on session state or events. `dsh-session` consumes complete messages rather than owning their construction.
+
+The `Agent` interface accepts a complete `UserMessage`. `send`, `followup`, `steer`, and `inject` never allocate or return identity; they freeze an imported value whose id the caller already holds. Prompt admission receives that message directly. A content rewrite creates a frozen replacement with the same id, while an additional context is a separately created `UserMessage` with its own id.
+
+Durable message-producing events store complete messages. `user/message` stores its `UserMessage` directly; `assistant/message`, `tool/result`, and `steering/message` wrap their role-specialized message beside event-local position, usage, failure, or presentation facts. Session derivation returns those frozen values instead of reconstructing anonymous messages. Assistant assembly creates a model-sourced message when a response completes, and tool execution creates a tool-sourced message when a result is committed.
+
+Any operation that changes only the representation of an existing semantic message preserves its id and returns another frozen value. An operation that creates a new semantic message mints a new id. Compaction content rewrites therefore preserve the rewritten tool-result identity, while a summary checkpoint is a new message.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+**Keep ids optional on the base message.** This would minimize fixture migration and allow provider or persistence shapes to remain anonymous. It would also preserve the original ambiguity: every consumer would need to branch on whether identity exists, and no type would prove that admission, logging, or projection retained it.
+
+**Let `Agent.send()` allocate the id.** This keeps identity scoped to inbox correlation but makes the agent call the earliest point at which a producer can name its own message. Prompt construction, UI attachments, and synchronous enqueue/discard coordination then need content matching or an out-of-band token before `send()` returns.
+
+**Let each durable event allocate a new id.** This gives persisted messages identities but deliberately breaks correlation with the live input and makes replayed requests appear to contain different messages. Identity belongs to the semantic value, not to each envelope that carries it.
+
+**Freeze only at agent or session admission.** This avoids a creation helper but leaves an identified mutable interval in which caller code can change the meaning associated with an id. The decision makes “has an id” and “is an immutable snapshot” coincide.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Every message producer must choose creation or import explicitly, and tests construct complete values rather than partial content/source records. UUID generation moves outward to the first semantic creation point, so deterministic fixtures that provide an existing id use `freezeMessage()` instead of `createMessage()`.
+
+Live inbox events, durable events, derived history, and model requests can correlate one message without content equality or envelope-specific ids. Prompt admission and UI attachment cleanup can compare `MessageId` before a turn exists. Deep freezing prevents a producer, hook, or observer from changing the value after identity is established.
+
+The shared representation removes the old `UserMessageData`/`AgentMessage` split and folds provider provenance into typed message sources. Event envelopes still own facts that are not message semantics, such as turn and step position, token usage, internal tool failure identity, and presentation metadata.
+
+The message and helper unit tests pin immediate identity, detachment, deep immutability, and preservation of an imported id. Agent-loop tests pin identity across admission, inbox lifecycle, durable append, content rewriting, and cancellation; session tests pin frozen derivation and identity-preserving replacement.

+# Agent Note: 将每条消息创建为带标识的不可变值
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-28-identified-immutable-message-values.md) | 中文
+
+## 问题
+
+harness 曾存在多种形似消息的表示，各自采用不同的标识规则。agent（智能体）输入只有在 loop 接受后才会取得 inbox 关联 id，而持久用户消息、assistant 消息、工具结果和模型请求消息都可能没有标识。因此，提示词准入介于创建消息与建立标识之间；等价内容会在实时事件、持久事件和模型请求之间复制，却没有一个值能在消息的整个生命周期中标识它。
+
+这使标识成为路由的副作用，而不是消息不变量。生产方无法在调用 agent 前引用一条消息，提示词钩子会分别接收内容和来源，后续投影则必须一边重建消息，一边决定 id 是否存在。不可变性也从不同边界开始：部分输入由 loop 冻结，部分直到会话追加时才冻结，提供方产生的 assistant 输出则使用另一种携带溯源信息的形状。
+
+## 决策
+
+`@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm` 持有唯一一种 `Message` 值，其 `id`、`role`、`content` 和 `source` 均为必填。`MessageId` 是不透明标识，由用户消息、assistant 消息和工具结果消息共享。消息在创建时就会获得 id，早于路由、提示词准入、持久追加或请求投影。同一个 id 会跨越每个表示边界。
+
+`createMessage(input)` 是角色通用的规范创建边界。它会生成 `MessageId`，将输入的角色、内容和来源与输入分离，并在返回完整值前将其深度冻结。`createUserMessage({ content, source })` 为提示词和上下文生产方固定 user 角色。`createAssistantMessage({ content, source })` 同时固定 assistant 角色与模型来源类别，因此模型输出生产方只需提供内容和模型溯源信息。所有创建辅助函数的输入都不包含 id，因此调用方不会意外地把创建表达为导入。`freezeMessage(message)` 是独立的导入或转换边界：它会将已有标识的消息与输入分离并深度冻结，不会生成替代标识。
+
+这些辅助函数位于基础消息词汇旁的 `dsh-llm` 中，因为它们的完整契约只依赖该词汇。`createToolResultMessage()` 与其他创建辅助函数同属此处：它使用同一个工具调用 id，将工具来源与确切的 user-role 工具结果块耦合起来，不依赖会话状态或事件。`dsh-session` 只消费完整消息，不负责构造它们。
+
+`Agent` 接口接收完整的 `UserMessage`。`send`、`followup`、`steer` 和 `inject` 绝不会分配或返回标识；它们会冻结导入的值，而调用方已经持有该值的 id。提示词准入会直接接收该消息。改写内容时会创建具有相同 id 的冻结替代值，而每个附加上下文都是单独创建的 `UserMessage`，拥有自己的 id。
+
+产生持久消息的事件会存储完整消息。`user/message` 直接存储其 `UserMessage`；`assistant/message`、`tool/result` 和 `steering/message` 则将各自角色专用的消息与事件本地的位置、用量、失败或呈现事实包装在一起。会话派生会返回这些冻结值，而不是重建匿名消息。assistant 组装会在响应完成时创建模型来源的消息，工具执行会在提交结果时创建工具来源的消息。
+
+仅改变已有语义消息表示的操作会保留其 id，并返回另一个冻结值。创建新语义消息的操作则会生成新 id。因此，压缩（compaction）内容改写会保留被改写工具结果的标识，而摘要检查点是一条新消息。
+
+## 考虑过的替代方案
+
+**让基础消息的 id 保持可选。** 这能减少 fixture（测试前置数据）迁移，并允许提供方或持久化形状继续保持匿名，但也会保留原有歧义：每个消费方都必须根据标识是否存在执行分支，且没有任何类型能证明准入、记录或投影保留了标识。
+
+**让 `Agent.send()` 分配 id。** 这会将标识限定在 inbox 关联范围内，却也会让 agent 调用成为生产方可以标识自身消息的最早时机。这样一来，在 `send()` 返回前，提示词构造、UI 附件和同步入队／丢弃协调都需要进行内容匹配，或使用带外 token。
+
+**让每个持久事件分配新 id。** 这能为持久消息提供标识，却会有意切断它与实时输入的关联，并让回放请求表现得像包含了不同消息。标识属于语义值，而不是承载它的每个封装。
+
+**只在 agent 或会话准入时冻结。** 这能省去创建辅助函数，却会留下一个带标识但可变的时间区间，调用方代码可以在这段时间内改变该 id 所关联的含义。本决策让「拥有 id」与「是不可变快照」同时成立。
+
+## 后果
+
+每个消息生产方都必须显式选择创建或导入，测试也会构造完整值，而不是不完整的内容／来源记录。UUID 的生成会前移至最初的语义创建点，因此提供已有 id 的确定性 fixture 会使用 `freezeMessage()`，而不是 `createMessage()`。
+
+实时 inbox 事件、持久事件、派生历史和模型请求可以关联同一条消息，无需比较内容或使用封装专用 id。提示词准入和 UI 附件清理可以在轮次存在之前比较 `MessageId`。深度冻结可以防止生产方、钩子或观察方在标识建立后更改消息值。
+
+共享表示移除了旧的 `UserMessageData`/`AgentMessage` 划分，并将提供方溯源信息纳入带类型的消息来源。事件封装仍持有不属于消息语义的事实，例如轮次与步骤位置、token 用量、内部工具失败标识和呈现元数据。
+
+消息和辅助函数的单元测试会固定即时标识、输入分离、深度不可变性，以及导入 id 的保留。agent loop 测试会固定标识跨越准入、inbox 生命周期、持久追加、内容改写和取消的行为；会话测试会固定冻结派生和保留标识的替换行为。

 `dsh-session:<base64url(JSON.stringify(sessionId))>` is the canonical host-independent identifier. JSON string encoding precedes base64url so quotes, slashes, backslashes, Unicode, newlines, and every other JavaScript string value round-trip without delimiter ambiguity. TUI renders that URI inside `@[label](uri)`; text-only clients may use the same inline mention. Explicit Markdown mentions reject malformed URIs. Bare text becomes a reference only for a non-empty base64url-shaped payload, whose decode must still be canonical; empty or punctuation-only uses remain ordinary discussion text.

 The append-only event types. Merge-extensible: a plugin declares extra event types via declaration merging — e.g. the [compaction seam](compaction.md) adds `compact/start` / `compact/summary` / `compact/end`, and `@deepseek-ai/dsh-hook-protocol` adds log-only `hook/invoked` / `hook/result` provenance for a hook bridge. Like `compact/*`, these are NOT `SurfaceEventType`s (no `surfaceOp`). The generated [persistence log event catalog](../persistence-catalog.md) enumerates every member — core and merged — with its payload, surface badge, and declaration site.

 Call `next()` for the default or return a decision to short-circuit. Pre-policy may deny or ask; only `allowed-once` proceeds, while a non-grant, missing approval channel or service, or agent-less request becomes a denial. Guards may still impose a final denial. Arguments cannot be rewritten because history, audit, UI, and execution must agree.

Your working directory is /tmp/advanced-headless.\n\nVerify your work by running the code or tests. Keep answers brief and factual.\n\n\nUse the read tool — not shell commands like cat — to inspect text files. Results include line numbers. Use offset and limit to continue reading large files.\n\nUse the write tool to create files or completely replace file contents. Existing files are overwritten, so read an existing file first (the default fs-policy requires it) and prefer edit for targeted changes.\n\nUse the edit tool for targeted changes to existing UTF-8 text files. It replaces literal old_string with new_string; by default old_string must appear exactly once. If old_string appears multiple times, provide a more specific old_string or set replace_all to true. Read the file first (the default fs-policy requires it), unless you just created or edited it in this session.\n\nCheck the [exit code: N] marker on every bash result; investigate failures before moving on.\n\nTrack every background task id you start. You are notified in-session when a task finishes — do not busy-poll or sleep on one; keep working on independent steps and do not duplicate a running task's work. Before giving a final answer, collect every still-relevant task with task_output (set wait: true only when you are genuinely blocked on it), and task_kill tasks that stopped mattering.\n\nUse the workflow tool ONLY when the user explicitly asks for a workflow or for large multi-agent orchestration: you write a JavaScript script (the tool description documents the exact format) that fans work out across many subagents with phases and structured results. For one or two delegations, prefer plain subagent calls.\n\nUse the ralph tool ONLY when the direct human explicitly asks for a Ralph loop or fresh-agent iterative execution. Each Ralph round starts a fresh child with no conversation seed and uses the shared workspace as durable memory. Completion and blockers are worker reports, not independent evaluation. Use same-session goal tools for ordinary long-running objectives, and plain subagents or workflows for bounded delegation and fan-out.\n\n## Writing code for run_code\n\nPass `run_code` the body of an async TypeScript function (erasable syntax only — no `enum` or namespaces; type annotations are advisory, the code runs type-stripped). Inside the program:\n\n- Call tools as `await tools.name(args)` — quoted access for exotic names: `tools[\"my-tool\"](args)`. Every call resolves to the tool's typed canonical JSON value. Tool arguments must be lossless JSON.\n- A FAILED tool call rejects with `ToolCallError`, whose `toolName` identifies the failed tool and whose `message` is human-readable — `try/catch` it to handle and continue.\n- Independent read-only calls MAY overlap under `Promise.all` (safe calls run concurrently; mutating calls run alone, in submission order). Sequence dependent work with `await`.\n- Emit results with `return` and/or `console.log(...)`. ONLY what you print or return comes back to you — intermediate tool results never enter the conversation, so extract just what you need.\n\nThe available tools:\n\n```ts\ntype JsonValue = null | boolean | number | string | JsonValue[] | { [key: string]: JsonValue }\n\ninterface ToolArgsMap {\n  /** Execute a bash command (`bash -c`) and return its stdout/stderr.

This creates an in-memory runtime Plugin, not an installed or configured Plugin. It remains active across later turns until cordis_unmount, toolset unload, or DSH restart. It does not create files, install a package, change cordis.yml or personal/project config, survive restart, or automatically become permanent. To keep it, ask the Agent to implement a normal local, project, or repository Plugin through the regular development workflow. It may affect other sessions in the same process; the sandbox is not a security boundary, and injected services reach the real runtime. `code` runs now as the body of an async JavaScript function in an isolated sandbox and MUST `return` a plugin. Two forms: FUNCTION form `return (ctx) => { … }` — declares no inject, so it can register tools, listen to events, and provide services, but reaching ANY service (e.g. ctx.bash) throws; use it only when you need no services. OBJECT form `return { name?, inject: ['bash', 'llm', …], apply(ctx) { … } }` — declares dependencies, and cordis activates the plugin only after the services exist; PREFER this form. You may reach ONLY the services you list in inject: an undeclared service throws even if it exists, because an undeclared dependency would not be cleaned up if its provider is unmounted. BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:\"api\" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:\"events\"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:\"api\" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` VETOES the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld. It is not a security boundary though — the services you inject (e.g. ctx.bash) reach the real runtime. */\n  cordis_mount: {\n    /** JavaScript body returning a temporary Plugin; evaluated now and saved nowhere. */\n    code: string;\n  } & Record<string, JsonValue>;\n  /** Unmount a current-process temporary Plugin created by cordis_mount.

Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn. The workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, provider?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result. Script-body hooks: - `agent(prompt, opts?): Promise<any>` — run one subagent to completion. Without `opts.schema` it resolves to the child's final text; with `opts.schema` (an object-rooted JSON Schema using ONLY type/properties/required/additionalProperties/items/enum/const/oneOf — no pattern/format/numeric bounds) it resolves to the validated object. Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), and independent `provider`/`model` LLM target overrides (either may be provided alone). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly. - `pipeline(items, ...stages): Promise<any[]>` — run each item through the stages independently with NO barrier between stages (prefer this for multi-stage work). Each stage receives `(prev, item, index)`. An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages. - `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`. - `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim. Misused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`.

This creates an in-memory runtime Plugin, not an installed or configured Plugin. It remains active across later turns until cordis_unmount, toolset unload, or DSH restart. It does not create files, install a package, change cordis.yml or personal/project config, survive restart, or automatically become permanent. To keep it, ask the Agent to implement a normal local, project, or repository Plugin through the regular development workflow. It may affect other sessions in the same process; the sandbox is not a security boundary, and injected services reach the real runtime. `code` runs now as the body of an async JavaScript function in an isolated sandbox and MUST `return` a plugin. Two forms: FUNCTION form `return (ctx) => { … }` — declares no inject, so it can register tools, listen to events, and provide services, but reaching ANY service (e.g. ctx.bash) throws; use it only when you need no services. OBJECT form `return { name?, inject: ['bash', 'llm', …], apply(ctx) { … } }` — declares dependencies, and cordis activates the plugin only after the services exist; PREFER this form. You may reach ONLY the services you list in inject: an undeclared service throws even if it exists, because an undeclared dependency would not be cleaned up if its provider is unmounted. BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:\"api\" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:\"events\"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:\"api\" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` VETOES the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld. It is not a security boundary though — the services you inject (e.g. ctx.bash) reach the real runtime.","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"code":{"type":"string","description":"JavaScript body returning a temporary Plugin; evaluated now and saved nowhere."}},"required":["code"]}},{"name":"cordis_unmount","description":"Unmount a current-process temporary Plugin created by cordis_mount.

It replaces literal old_string with new_string; by default old_string must appear exactly once. If old_string appears multiple times, provide a more specific old_string or set replace_all to true. Read the file first (the default fs-policy requires it), unless you just created or edited it in this session.\n\nCheck the [exit code: N] marker on every bash result; investigate failures before moving on.\n\nTrack every background task id you start. You are notified in-session when a task finishes — do not busy-poll or sleep on one; keep working on independent steps and do not duplicate a running task's work. Before giving a final answer, collect every still-relevant task with task_output (set wait: true only when you are genuinely blocked on it), and task_kill tasks that stopped mattering.\n\nUse the workflow tool ONLY when the user explicitly asks for a workflow or for large multi-agent orchestration: you write a JavaScript script (the tool description documents the exact format) that fans work out across many subagents with phases and structured results. For one or two delegations, prefer plain subagent calls.\n\nUse the ralph tool ONLY when the direct human explicitly asks for a Ralph loop or fresh-agent iterative execution. Each Ralph round starts a fresh child with no conversation seed and uses the shared workspace as durable memory. Completion and blockers are worker reports, not independent evaluation. Use same-session goal tools for ordinary long-running objectives, and plain subagents or workflows for bounded delegation and fan-out.\n\n## Writing code for run_code\n\nPass `run_code` the body of an async TypeScript function (erasable syntax only — no `enum` or namespaces; type annotations are advisory, the code runs type-stripped). Inside the program:\n\n- Call tools as `await tools.name(args)` — quoted access for exotic names: `tools[\"my-tool\"](args)`. Every call resolves to the tool's typed canonical JSON value. Tool arguments must be lossless JSON.\n- A FAILED tool call rejects with `ToolCallError`, whose `toolName` identifies the failed tool and whose `message` is human-readable — `try/catch` it to handle and continue.\n- Independent read-only calls MAY overlap under `Promise.all` (safe calls run concurrently; mutating calls run alone, in submission order). Sequence dependent work with `await`.\n- Emit results with `return` and/or `console.log(...)`. ONLY what you print or return comes back to you — intermediate tool results never enter the conversation, so extract just what you need.\n\nThe available tools:\n\n```ts\ntype JsonValue = null | boolean | number | string | JsonValue[] | { [key: string]: JsonValue }\n\ninterface ToolArgsMap {\n  /** Execute a bash command (`bash -c`) and return its stdout/stderr.

To keep it, ask the Agent to implement a normal local, project, or repository Plugin through the regular development workflow. It may affect other sessions in the same process; the sandbox is not a security boundary, and injected services reach the real runtime. `code` runs now as the body of an async JavaScript function in an isolated sandbox and MUST `return` a plugin. Two forms: FUNCTION form `return (ctx) => { … }` — declares no inject, so it can register tools, listen to events, and provide services, but reaching ANY service (e.g. ctx.bash) throws; use it only when you need no services. OBJECT form `return { name?, inject: ['bash', 'llm', …], apply(ctx) { … } }` — declares dependencies, and cordis activates the plugin only after the services exist; PREFER this form. You may reach ONLY the services you list in inject: an undeclared service throws even if it exists, because an undeclared dependency would not be cleaned up if its provider is unmounted. BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:\"api\" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:\"events\"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:\"api\" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` VETOES the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld. It is not a security boundary though — the services you inject (e.g. ctx.bash) reach the real runtime. */\n  cordis_mount: {\n    /** JavaScript body returning a temporary Plugin; evaluated now and saved nowhere. */\n    code: string;\n  } & Record<string, JsonValue>;\n  /** Unmount a current-process temporary Plugin created by cordis_mount.

Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn. The workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, provider?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result. Script-body hooks: - `agent(prompt, opts?): Promise<any>` — run one subagent to completion. Without `opts.schema` it resolves to the child's final text; with `opts.schema` (an object-rooted JSON Schema using ONLY type/properties/required/additionalProperties/items/enum/const/oneOf — no pattern/format/numeric bounds) it resolves to the validated object. Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), and independent `provider`/`model` LLM target overrides (either may be provided alone). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly. - `pipeline(items, ...stages): Promise<any[]>` — run each item through the stages independently with NO barrier between stages (prefer this for multi-stage work). Each stage receives `(prev, item, index)`. An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages. - `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`. - `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim. Misused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`. Constraints: concurrency and total-agent caps apply; no filesystem, network, timers, or Node.js APIs are provided — the agents do the work, the script only coordinates them.

BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:\"api\" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:\"events\"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:\"api\" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` VETOES the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld. It is not a security boundary though — the services you inject (e.g. ctx.bash) reach the real runtime.","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"code":{"type":"string","description":"JavaScript body returning a temporary Plugin; evaluated now and saved nowhere."}},"required":["code"]}},{"name":"cordis_unmount","description":"Unmount a current-process temporary Plugin created by cordis_mount.

An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages.\n- `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`.\n- `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim.\n\nMisused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`.\n\nConstraints: concurrency and total-agent caps apply; no filesystem, network, timers, or Node.js APIs are provided — the agents do the work, the script only coordinates them.

Keep answers brief and factual.\n\n\nUse the read tool — not shell commands like cat — to inspect text files. Results include line numbers.

It replaces literal old_string with new_string; by default old_string must appear exactly once. If old_string appears multiple times, provide a more specific old_string or set replace_all to true.

Inside the program:\n\n- Call tools as `await tools.name(args)` — quoted access for exotic names: `tools[\"my-tool\"](args)`. Every call resolves to the tool's typed canonical JSON value. Tool arguments must be lossless JSON.\n- A FAILED tool call rejects with `ToolCallError`, whose `toolName` identifies the failed tool and whose `message` is human-readable — `try/catch` it to handle and continue.\n- Independent read-only calls MAY overlap under `Promise.all` (safe calls run concurrently; mutating calls run alone, in submission order). Sequence dependent work with `await`.\n- Emit results with `return` and/or `console.log(...)`. ONLY what you print or return comes back to you — intermediate tool results never enter the conversation, so extract just what you need.\n\nThe available tools:\n\n```ts\ntype JsonValue = null | boolean | number | string | JsonValue[] | { [key: string]: JsonValue }\n\ninterface ToolArgsMap {\n  /** Execute a bash command (`bash -c`) and return its stdout/stderr.

To keep it, ask the Agent to implement a normal local, project, or repository Plugin through the regular development workflow. It may affect other sessions in the same process; the sandbox is not a security boundary, and injected services reach the real runtime. `code` runs now as the body of an async JavaScript function in an isolated sandbox and MUST `return` a plugin. Two forms: FUNCTION form `return (ctx) => { … }` — declares no inject, so it can register tools, listen to events, and provide services, but reaching ANY service (e.g. ctx.bash) throws; use it only when you need no services. OBJECT form `return { name?, inject: ['bash', 'llm', …], apply(ctx) { … } }` — declares dependencies, and cordis activates the plugin only after the services exist; PREFER this form. You may reach ONLY the services you list in inject: an undeclared service throws even if it exists, because an undeclared dependency would not be cleaned up if its provider is unmounted. BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:\"api\" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:\"events\"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:\"api\" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` VETOES the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld.

Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn. The workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, provider?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result. Script-body hooks: - `agent(prompt, opts?): Promise<any>` — run one subagent to completion. Without `opts.schema` it resolves to the child's final text; with `opts.schema` (an object-rooted JSON Schema using ONLY type/properties/required/additionalProperties/items/enum/const/oneOf — no pattern/format/numeric bounds) it resolves to the validated object. Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), and independent `provider`/`model` LLM target overrides (either may be provided alone). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly. - `pipeline(items, ...stages): Promise<any[]>` — run each item through the stages independently with NO barrier between stages (prefer this for multi-stage work). Each stage receives `(prev, item, index)`. An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages. - `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`. - `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim. Misused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`. Constraints: concurrency and total-agent caps apply; no filesystem, network, timers, or Node.js APIs are provided — the agents do the work, the script only coordinates them.

This creates an in-memory runtime Plugin, not an installed or configured Plugin. It remains active across later turns until cordis_unmount, toolset unload, or DSH restart. It does not create files, install a package, change cordis.yml or personal/project config, survive restart, or automatically become permanent. To keep it, ask the Agent to implement a normal local, project, or repository Plugin through the regular development workflow. It may affect other sessions in the same process; the sandbox is not a security boundary, and injected services reach the real runtime. `code` runs now as the body of an async JavaScript function in an isolated sandbox and MUST `return` a plugin. Two forms: FUNCTION form `return (ctx) => { … }` — declares no inject, so it can register tools, listen to events, and provide services, but reaching ANY service (e.g. ctx.bash) throws; use it only when you need no services. OBJECT form `return { name?, inject: ['bash', 'llm', …], apply(ctx) { … } }` — declares dependencies, and cordis activates the plugin only after the services exist; PREFER this form. You may reach ONLY the services you list in inject: an undeclared service throws even if it exists, because an undeclared dependency would not be cleaned up if its provider is unmounted. BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:\"api\" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:\"events\"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:\"api\" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` VETOES the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld. It is not a security boundary though — the services you inject (e.g. ctx.bash) reach the real runtime.","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"code":{"type":"string","description":"JavaScript body returning a temporary Plugin; evaluated now and saved nowhere."}},"required":["code"]}},{"name":"cordis_unmount","description":"Unmount a current-process temporary Plugin created by cordis_mount.

Statuses: `pending` (not started), `in_progress` (being worked on now), `completed` (finished).","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"todos":{"type":"array","description":"The COMPLETE task list, replacing any previous list.","items":{"type":"object","additionalProperties":false,"properties":{"content":{"type":"string","description":"What the task is — a short imperative line."},"status":{"type":"string","description":"pending (not started) | in_progress (now) | completed (done).","enum":["pending","in_progress","completed"]}},"required":["content","status"]}}},"required":["todos"]}},{"name":"workflow","description":"Run a JavaScript workflow script that orchestrates subagents at scale. Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn.\n\nThe workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, provider?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result.\n\nScript-body hooks:\n- `agent(prompt, opts?): Promise<any>` — run one subagent to completion. Without `opts.schema` it resolves to the child's final text; with `opts.schema` (an object-rooted JSON Schema using ONLY type/properties/required/additionalProperties/items/enum/const/oneOf — no pattern/format/numeric bounds) it resolves to the validated object. Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), and independent `provider`/`model` LLM target overrides (either may be provided alone). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly.\n- `pipeline(items, ...stages): Promise<any[]>` — run each item through the stages independently with NO barrier between stages (prefer this for multi-stage work). Each stage receives `(prev, item, index)`. An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages.\n- `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`.\n- `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim.\n\nMisused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`.\n\nConstraints: concurrency and total-agent caps apply; no filesystem, network, timers, or Node.js APIs are provided — the agents do the work, the script only coordinates them. The run executes in the foreground: this call returns when the whole script finishes.","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"script":{"type":"string","description":"The plain-JS workflow script body (top-level await allowed; NO `export const meta` statement; end with `return <json-value>`)."},"meta":{"type":"object","description":"The workflow identity block (plain JSON — never code).","additionalProperties":true,"properties":{"name":{"type":"string","description":"Short kebab-case workflow name."},"description":{"type":"string","description":"One-line description of what the workflow does."},"whenToUse":{"type":"string","description":"Optional guidance on when this workflow applies."},"phases":{"type":"array","description":"Optional phase declarations matched by phase() calls.","items":{"type":"object","additionalProperties":true,"properties":{"title":{"type":"string","description":"The phase title phase() calls match by exact string."},"detail":{"type":"string","description":"Optional one-line description of the phase."},"provider":{"type":"string","description":"Optional provider override this phase is expected to use."},"model":{"type":"string","description":"Optional model override this phase is expected to use."}},"required":["title"]}}},"required":["name","description"]},"args":{"type":"object","description":"Optional JSON input exposed to the script as the `args` global (wrap a bare list as a field, e.g. {\"files\": [...]}).","additionalProperties":true}},"required":["script","meta"]}},{"name":"write","description":"Create or fully replace a UTF-8 text file.","parameters":{"type":"object","properties":{"file_path":{"type":"string","description":"Path to write, resolved by the filesystem backend."},"content":{"type":"string","description":"Full UTF-8 text content to write."}},"required":["file_path","content"]}}]},"reason":"initial"}}

Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn.\n\nThe workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, provider?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result.\n\nScript-body hooks:\n- `agent(prompt, opts?): Promise<any>` — run one subagent to completion. Without `opts.schema` it resolves to the child's final text; with `opts.schema` (an object-rooted JSON Schema using ONLY type/properties/required/additionalProperties/items/enum/const/oneOf — no pattern/format/numeric bounds) it resolves to the validated object. Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), and independent `provider`/`model` LLM target overrides (either may be provided alone). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly.\n- `pipeline(items, ...stages): Promise<any[]>` — run each item through the stages independently with NO barrier between stages (prefer this for multi-stage work). Each stage receives `(prev, item, index)`. An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages.\n- `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`.\n- `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim.\n\nMisused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`.\n\nConstraints: concurrency and total-agent caps apply; no filesystem, network, timers, or Node.js APIs are provided — the agents do the work, the script only coordinates them.

 ## Public API
 
 - `listCandidates(agent, query?, limit?)` lists sessions other than `agent.id`, filters case-insensitively by id or cwd, and ranks same-cwd, cwd-less, then other-cwd records while preserving `listSessions()` creation order within each group. Each selected candidate uses its latest log-backed title as the mention label and falls back to the session id; titles and message bodies are not searched.
-- `prepare(agent, content, references, signal?)` preserves first-mention order, deduplicates ids, rejects self-reference and more than the configured distinct-source limit, reads every source in parallel, and returns detached content plus zero or one aggregated `UserMessageData` context. Any invalid reference, failed read, cancellation, or budget failure rejects before the host calls `followup()` or `steer()`.
+- `prepare(agent, content, references, signal?)` preserves first-mention order, deduplicates ids, rejects self-reference and more than the configured distinct-source limit, reads every source in parallel, and returns detached content plus zero or one aggregated, identified `UserMessage` context. Any invalid reference, failed read, cancellation, or budget failure rejects before the host calls `followup()` or `steer()`.
 - `encodeSessionReferenceUri()` and `decodeSessionReferenceUri()` implement `dsh-session:<base64url(JSON.stringify(sessionId))>` so every JavaScript string id round-trips exactly. `formatSessionReferenceMention()` emits `@[label](uri)`, and `parseSessionReferenceText()` replaces Markdown mentions or bare canonical URIs with readable `@label` text while returning structured references. Explicit Markdown mentions reject every malformed URI; bare text is considered a reference only when a non-empty base64url-shaped payload follows the scheme, and a matching noncanonical candidate still fails. Empty or punctuation-only scheme mentions remain ordinary discussion text.

 ## 公开 API
 
 - `listCandidates(agent, query?, limit?)` 会列出 `agent.id` 之外的会话，按 id 或 cwd 进行不区分大小写的筛选，再按同 cwd、无 cwd、其他 cwd 记录排序，同时保持每组内的 `listSessions()` 创建顺序。每个已选候选会话都使用最新的日志支持标题作为 mention label，并回退到会话 id；不搜索标题与消息主体。
-- `prepare(agent, content, references, signal?)` 会保留首次 mention 顺序、对 id 去重，并拒绝自引用或超过已配置不同源上限的情况。它会并行读取所有源，返回与输入脱离的内容，外加零个或一个聚合 `UserMessageData` 上下文。任何无效引用、读取失败、取消或预算失败都会在宿主调用 `followup()` 或 `steer()` 之前被拒绝。
+- `prepare(agent, content, references, signal?)` 会保留首次 mention 顺序、对 id 去重，并拒绝自引用或超过已配置不同源上限的情况。它会并行读取所有源，返回与输入脱离的内容，外加零个或一个聚合且带标识的 `UserMessage` 上下文。任何无效引用、读取失败、取消或预算失败都会在宿主调用 `followup()` 或 `steer()` 之前被拒绝。
 - `encodeSessionReferenceUri()` 与 `decodeSessionReferenceUri()` 实现 `dsh-session:<base64url(JSON.stringify(sessionId))>`，因此每个 JavaScript 字符串 id 都能精确往返。`formatSessionReferenceMention()` 发出 `@[label](uri)`，`parseSessionReferenceText()` 将 Markdown mention 或裸规范 URI 替换为可读的 `@label` 文本，并返回结构化引用。显式 Markdown mention 会拒绝每个格式错误的 URI；只当 scheme 后跟非空、符合 base64url 形状的 payload 时，裸文本才被视为引用，匹配但非规范的候选项仍会失败。空 scheme mention 或只含标点符号的 scheme mention 仍是普通讨论文本。

 Most interception points are cooperative waterfalls. Turn-scoped asynchronous seams receive one explicit `AbortSignal`, with `signal` immediately before a waterfall's final `next`; listeners may cooperate but must not retain it as authority over another turn. `agent/step` is the serial checkpoint before request derivation, while `agent/request-error` is the failed-model-request recovery waterfall: it receives the exact error, normalized failure facts, and signal after the failed step closes. A listener returns `{ kind: 'retry' }` without calling `next()` when it owns recovery; the loop closes the failed turn and opens one numbered retry turn. `agent/turn-stopping` runs before an otherwise completed turn closes. Ordinary queued prompts remain intact. Effective broad cancellation first emits the observe-only `agent/cancel-requested` with its resolved typed cause, then clears queues and aborts; notification failures are contained and cannot veto the stop. The [explicit-cancellation decision](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-16-explicit-turn-cancellation.md) owns signal lifetime; the [agent-scope runtime-design Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-12-agent-scope-runtime-design.md#three-execution-boundaries-are-deliberately-one-way) owns scoped dispatch and terminal settlement.

 - `agent.followup(input)` — the `next-turn`/wakeup preset of `send()`: queue an ordinary follow-up turn and wake the driver.
 - `agent.steer(input)` — the `next-step`/wakeup preset: during prompt admission or an open turn, stage steering for the next safe boundary without dispatching `agent/prompt-submit`; outside that acceptance window, delegate to a woken follow-up. Admission failure leaves staged steering for retry or a later admitted prompt, while cancellation or disposal may discard it.
 - `agent.inject(input)` — the `next-step`/no-wakeup preset: append model-facing context without running the model; the next request sees a verbatim user-role message whose provenance is carried by the required `input.source`. During prompt admission or an open turn, injection waits in the outbox for the next safe boundary. Outside that acceptance window, it appends immediately without opening a turn; a context-only admission batch takes this fallback if admission closes without a turn, while context staged beside steering remains pending with it. Persistence reacts to `session/event` independently. Injection emits no `agent/inbox/*` event.

 - `ToolExecution` — the readonly pipeline view: immutable `{ token, callId, name, arguments, signal, agent?, parent? }`; the registry separately retains and re-fuses the original caller signal. `ToolDispatchExecution` is the `tools/execute`-only view whose required signal is mutable, so a wrapper may replace and restore it but cannot delete it. A nested call's `parent` is a `ToolExecutionToken`, not an execution object.
 - `ToolRunContext` — the execution passed to a tool body, extending `ToolExecution` with `deferContext(context)`. Composite tools use it to ferry context produced by nested dispatches to the outer result even when the tool later throws or cancellation wins; it never injects immediately.
-- `ToolExecutionResult` — discriminated execution-local outcome. Success is `{ isError:false, value:JsonValue, content, meta?, additionalContexts? }`; failure is `{ isError:true, error:{ message, info? }, content, meta?, additionalContexts? }` and has no value. Call identity stays on the immutable `ToolExecution`. The registry snapshots, validates, and freezes the canonical value before rendering, then materializes the durable presentation fields before final observation. `ToolFailure.info` carries an internal `{ name, code }` for a `HarnessError`; `additionalContexts` preserves every deferred or post-execute `UserMessageData` for the loop's post-result FIFO.
+- `ToolExecutionResult` — discriminated execution-local outcome.

 - `PreToolDecision` — `{kind:'allow'}` | `{kind:'deny', reason}` | `{kind:'ask', reason?}`. Input rewrite is deliberately not offered; `ask` is serviced by [`ctx.approval`](../../ui/user-approval/README.md) when mounted and otherwise degrades to deny.
 - `PostToolDecision` — accept may replace `content` or `value`, never both, and may attach `additionalContexts`; block turns feedback into a valueless failure. Content replacement preserves the canonical value and metadata. Value replacement is revalidated and rerenders content/metadata. Accept preserves tool-deferred contexts before decision contexts; block discards tool-deferred contexts and exposes only contexts explicitly supplied by the blocking decision.
 - `ToolGuard` — `(execution) => string | undefined`; the returned string is a final monotonic denial reason evaluated after the reorderable pre-execute waterfall and before dispatch.

 - `ToolExecutionToken`：注册表分配的全新带品牌 `Symbol`。它只支持通过相等性进行关联，绝不会跨越模型、日志或 worker 边界。
 - `ToolExecution`：只读流水线视图：不可变的 `{ token, callId, name, arguments, signal, agent?, parent? }`；注册表会另行保留并重新融合调用方的原始信号。`ToolDispatchExecution` 是仅供 `tools/execute` 使用的视图，其必填信号可变，因此包装层可以替换并还原它，但不能删除它。嵌套调用的 `parent` 是 `ToolExecutionToken`，而不是执行对象。
 - `ToolRunContext`：传给工具主体的执行上下文，在 `ToolExecution` 基础上增加 `deferContext(context)`。组合工具借此把嵌套分发产生的上下文传递到外层结果，即使工具后来抛出或取消胜出也不例外；该方法绝不会立即注入上下文。
-- `ToolExecutionResult`：可辨识的执行局部结果。成功形态为 `{ isError:false, value:JsonValue, content, meta?, additionalContexts? }`；失败形态为 `{ isError:true, error:{ message, info? }, content, meta?, additionalContexts? }`，且不含值。调用身份保留在不可变的 `ToolExecution` 上。注册表会在呈现前快照、验证并冻结规范值，随后在最终观测前实体化持久呈现字段。`ToolFailure.info` 携带内部的 `{ name, code }`，用于表示 `HarnessError`；`additionalContexts` 为循环在结果后的 FIFO 保留每个延迟或后置执行的 `UserMessageData`。

 - `PostToolDecision`：接受决定可以替换 `content` 或 `value`（不能同时替换），并可附加 `additionalContexts`；阻止决定会把反馈变成无值失败。替换内容会保留规范值和元数据。替换值会重新验证，并重新呈现内容／元数据。接受决定会先保留工具延迟的上下文，再附加决定上下文；阻止决定会丢弃工具延迟的上下文，只公开阻止决定显式提供的上下文。
 - `ToolGuard`：`(execution) => string | undefined`；返回的字符串是最终单调拒绝理由，在可重排的前置执行 waterfall 之后、分发之前求值。

 - Subclass `LlmAdapter` and call `ctx.llm.registerAdapter(providers, adapter)` to add one or more provider routes. `GenerateOptions.provider` selects the adapter; `GenerateOptions.model` is adapter-owned and may be resolved dynamically. Override `providerRetryPolicy()` to supply provider-owned recovery configuration, `providerInfo()` and asynchronous `listModels()` to expose selector metadata, then implement `resolveModel()` when exact identity, capacity, or selectable reasoning efforts are available; an asynchronous resolver must honor its optional cancellation signal. The defaults use bounded normal retry policy, use the route and model ids as names, advertise no models, and return no capacity or reasoning metadata.
 - Wrap `llm/stream` via `ctx.on()` waterfall listeners for caching, logging, or routing. A wrapper that retries after emitting a chunk has no durable attempt boundary; shipped agent retry policy therefore uses `agent/request-error` instead.

-Messages are arrays of typed content blocks: `text`, `reasoning`, `tool-call`, `tool-result`.

Assistant messages produced by the loop also carry provider/model provenance and optional adapter-private replay state.

+`Message` is the shared immutable value used by delivery, durable history, and model requests. Every message has a required `MessageId`, role, content, and typed source from creation onward. `createMessage(input)` mints the identity and returns a detached deep-frozen value; `createUserMessage({ content, source })` fixes the user role; `createAssistantMessage({ content, source })` fixes the assistant role and model source kind; `createToolResultMessage({ callId, content, isError })` fixes the user role and couples the tool source to its result block; `freezeMessage(message)` imports an identity that already exists and never replaces it. Message rewrites preserve the identity and produce another frozen value.

 - `HarnessError` — base class for the harness error taxonomy: a stable `code` string (distinct from the human `message`) plus `cause` chaining. Lives here, in the leaf package every other imports, so a single base is shared without a new dependency edge. Per-package errors (`LlmError`, `ToolArgsError`, `InvariantError`, …) extend it. `isHarnessError(value)` narrows at seams.
 - `LlmError` — extends `HarnessError`; its stable `code` string (`NO_ADAPTER`, `DUPLICATE_ADAPTER`, and adapter codes like `AUTH`/`RATE_LIMIT`) matches its frozen serializable `failure.code`. The payload may also retain validated status, `Retry-After`, and branded provider request id facts; policy remains outside the error.
 - `errorChain(value)` — renders a thrown value with its full `cause` chain and AggregateError members for diagnostic surfaces (UI notices, logger lines, durable `turn/end` messages), so transport wrappers like undici's `TypeError: fetch failed` surface the underlying `ECONNREFUSED`/DNS/TLS detail instead of masking it. Rendering only — route on `code`, never by parsing the result.
