- Restore the universal JSDoc rule the rewrite dropped (module doc
comment + semantic JSDoc on every export), in root AGENTS.md § Type
safety and documentation — the generated-catalog RFC cites it as the
rule the generator enforces at the source.
- Repoint the six remaining citations of moved content that the
section-name grep missed (rule-title quotes and prose references):
agent-loop agent.ts, acp index.ts, acp turns.spec.ts, the Exa e2e
header, the real-api-e2e RFC, the doc-sync-enforcement RFC amendment,
and rfc/implemented/AGENTS.md's section-name casing.
- Fix two docs/testing.md overstatements: the unit tier also runs
examples/*/tests specs, and keyless-by-nature examples have no
with-key smoke.
- Displacement trims keep root AGENTS.md at 1,498/1,500.
Codex review of the vocabulary relocation found two doc-accuracy issues:
- presentation.ts's JSDoc used {@link ToolDefinition...}, which the
TypeScript language service cannot resolve because presentation.ts
deliberately does not import index.ts (that would create the cycle the
split avoids). Demote those three to plain `ToolDefinition` code text;
same-file and imported @links (TerminalResultView, ContentBlock) stay.
- docs/core-data-structures/tools.md's source header listed only index.ts
and schema.ts; add presentation.ts, which now owns the presentation
vocabulary the page documents.
The tool render-intent vocabulary (ToolCallView/ToolResultView + members,
FileLocation, FileDiff, ToolCallKind) is the UI-facing surface of
dsh-tools; it lived inline in index.ts alongside the registry and
execution core. Move it to its own presentation.ts module so index.ts is
the registry + execute waterfall and the presentation vocabulary is a
separate, one-directional dependency.
presentation.ts owns ONLY render-intent types and references none of the
execution types; index.ts imports the view types for ToolDefinition's
presentCall/presentResult signatures (clean acyclic index -> presentation).
The opaque `meta` presentation channel (ToolExecuteReturn, ToolResult,
ToolExecutionResult) is execution plumbing and stays in index.ts.
Public surface unchanged: index.ts re-exports the vocabulary, so consumers
(tool-fs/tool-bash/tool-web/tool-todo, the ACP bridge) keep importing from
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools with zero churn. No producer/bridge/test edits; a
pure internal relocation with no observable-output change (snapshot goldens
untouched).
Codex's stale-prose pass found seven more spots still describing the
result diff as ALWAYS an applied contextual hunk, or a create/binary
overwrite as rendering "only the call-time card": the DiffCallView JSDoc
and the acp bridge diff-arm comment, the FsWriteOutcome.before and
readTextForDiff JSDoc, and three RFC lines. All now say: the result diff
is the applied change — a contextual hunk when there is a before-image,
else a whole-file diff (create / undiffable binary) — and a successful
mutation always returns the result diff so the model-facing text can't
clobber it. Regenerate the cordis catalog (source line shift).
The write-diff-card fix made write's presentResult return an args-derived
whole-file diff (oldText:null) for a create / unchanged overwrite, but the
DiffResultView contract and its mirrored docs still said `diffs` is ALWAYS
the applied contextual hunks computed from before/after. Correct the type
JSDoc, the write execute-side comment, and the four mirrored surfaces
(tools.md, tools README, acp-feature-support, adding-a-tool cookbook) to
say: typically the applied hunks, or a whole-file diff when there is no
before-image (a create) — and that a mutation returns the diff result even
when it duplicates the call-time card, since a tool_call_update.content
replace would otherwise clobber the diff with the model-facing text.
Regenerate the cordis catalog (source line shift).
Address the applied-hunk-diffs review:
- CRLF write overwrite emitted bogus every-line-changed hunks: write's
`before` was LF-normalized but `after` kept the raw model content, so a
CRLF rewrite of an LF file diffed every line. Normalize write's `after`
to LF so both sides share the diff basis (edit already did). Regression
test proves it fails on the raw-after path.
- The tool-private `meta` payload is now typed `unknown` (opaque) at every
seam instead of `JsonValue`. This drops the `dsh-tools -> dsh-session`
package edge that existed only to name the type, and removes the
`FileDiff` index signature that had been widening the type solely for
JsonValue-assignability. Serializability is still enforced at runtime by
`Session.append`'s isJsonValue check, which was always the real guard.
- Sync the docs the new result/meta surface left stale: ToolResultView's
diff card + ToolExecutionResult.meta in tools.md/session.md type-equiv
blocks, the acp/tools READMEs, and the adding-a-tool cookbook; regenerate
the cordis catalog and module graph.
fs write/edit now emit a result-time contextual-diff tool_call_update
(the applied hunk with ±3 context lines, one hunk per replace_all site),
matching what claude-agent-acp sends and what makes an editor render the
change in place. The call-time snippet diff stays; the result hunk
supersedes it (ACP content-replace).
Mechanism:
- A persisted tool-private `meta` channel: execute may return
`{ content, meta }`; `meta` (JsonValue) rides on the tool/result event
and is handed back to presentResult, so the diff reproduces on replay
(event-sourced). JsonValue is now exported from dsh-session.
- The backend returns raw before/after text (storage facts) on
FsWriteOutcome/FsEditOutcome; the tool computes the hunk via the npm
`diff` package's structuredPatch. A create has no before → no result
diff; a failed/aborted mutation carries no meta.
- ToolResultView gains a DiffResultView; the bridge's result-side switch
renders it as {type:'diff'} content blocks.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-02-result-time-applied-hunk-diffs.md
(justifies the npm `diff` runtime dep over vendoring and the meta channel);
the render-intent-union RFC's Non-goal is updated to record this shipped.
All fs snapshot goldens re-recorded; edit/overwrite gain the contextual
result diff, create/read/policy-reject unchanged in structure.
Use the new filesystem seam for skill file reads and system skill writes when ctx.fs is available, and include the skill tool in the generated tool catalog.
Replace the "bag of optional fields" tool-presentation types
(ToolCallPresentation / ToolResultPresentation / ToolTerminal) with a
card-tagged discriminated union — the standing FIXME(tool-presentation).
A tool declares one render intent per call/result and the ACP bridge
switches on `card`:
ToolCallView = generic | terminal | diff
ToolResultView = generic | terminal
The `diff` card is new: fs write/edit now emit an ACP {type:'diff'}
content block (an editor's inline diff), which the old shapes could not
express. The bridge also relativizes a file card's title against the
session cwd (mirroring claude-agent-acp's toDisplayPath) while keeping
locations/diff paths raw, and derives the no-capability fenced console
fallback from a terminal result's output. read gains the window-in-title
(`Read foo.txt (5 - 8)`) and an always-set location line, matching the
reference adapter field-for-field.
Migrates all three producer families (tool-fs, tool-bash, tool-todo) and
the sole consumer (the ACP bridge) together — the source does not compile
piecewise. Adds snapshot coverage for the terminal _meta path (a new
capability-advertising scenario) and re-records the fs goldens to show the
diff cards. Applied-hunk (result-time, context-line) diffs need a new
result/event shape and are a follow-up.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-02-tool-render-intent-union.md
Follow-up to the README fix: the dsh-agent README's emit section had lost its
streaming entry, leaving a "Streaming + tool" heading with no pointer to where
the token stream now lives. Rename the section to "Live control notifications"
and add a line directing readers to the durable `session/event` `assistant/chunk`
feed.
Codex convergence caught stale prose the doc-sync gate does not scan: the
dsh-agent README still listed `agent/stream-chunk` as an emit and the
dsh-agent-loop README still told UI plugins to listen on it. A plugin author
following either would silently get no chunks. Point both at the
`session/event` `assistant/chunk` feed (the agent-loop UI line also names the
`agent/*` control events a UI still uses).
The loop recorded every model token delta as a durable `assistant/chunk`
session event AND emitted an identical live `agent/stream-chunk` Cordis event
one line later. Same StreamChunk, same turn/step; the emit added only the live
Agent handle, which the sole consumer discarded. This is the boundary-mirror
duplication the event-domain work removed for turn/step boundaries, applied to
the token stream — a follow-up the boundary RFC explicitly deferred.
The premise is settled: chunk persistence is authoritative (the proposal to
stop persisting chunks was rejected — replay/snapshots depend on it), so
`assistant/chunk` on `session/event` is the load-bearing token stream and
`agent/stream-chunk` is pure redundancy.
- Remove the `agent/stream-chunk` declaration + emit; drop the now-unused
StreamChunk import from dsh-agent's types.
- Migrate `dsh-ui-stdio` (the only live consumer; ACP already reads
assistant/chunk off session/event) to render assistant/chunk in its existing
session/event listener. Consolidating to one listener also makes the
inReasoning dim-SGR flag deterministic across chunk/boundary events (they no
longer race across two listeners).
- Repoint the agent-loop tests (cancel/loop) and ui-stdio tests to the
session/event assistant/chunk feed.
- New RFC (implemented/simplification/2026-07-02-remove-stream-chunk-mirror);
amend the boundary RFC's retained-list entry to cross-link; update
architecture, cookbook, event-domain-semantics, the ACP proposal, and the
regenerated cordis catalog.
Snapshot goldens unchanged (ACP never used the mirror), confirming no
editor-facing transcript change.
The fs tools rendered as generic cards (title = tool name, raw file content) in
an ACP editor. Give them tool-owned presentation like bash/subagent have:
- read → title "Read <path>", kind read, offset/limit as rawInput
- write → title "Write <path>", kind edit
- edit → title "Edit <path>", kind edit, a clipped old→new rawInput summary
Add a provider-neutral `locations: { path, line? }[]` to ToolCallPresentation —
the files a call reads/modifies — so a capable editor can follow along / jump to
the file (read carries its offset as the line). The ACP bridge forwards it onto
the wire `tool_call` (ResolvedCallPresentation + call() + the tool_call build in
streamSessionEventUpdate). This flips the `locations` cell in the ACP feature
matrix to supported. The SDK already carries `tool_call.locations`
(ToolCallLocation `{ path, line? }`), so no ACP types leak into dsh-tools.
presentResult is intentionally omitted: it only receives `{ content, isError }`,
not the write/edit outcome, so titling by create-vs-overwrite or replacement
count would mean parsing the model-facing text — the static title stays.
Tests: pure presentCall assertions for all three tools incl. locations and the
edit rawInput clip; a bridge test drives the REAL fs tools through ToolPresenter
and asserts locations reaches the wire tool_call (proven to fail without the
forwarding line). New withFs harness option + dsh-fs devDeps on dsh-acp.
Address review on the interception-seams PR: PromptDecision.reason is
documented as the durable record of why a prompt was blocked, but the loop
only surfaced it via the fully-blocked batch's `rejected` turn/end. In a MIXED
batch — one queued prompt blocked, another allowed — the turn does not end
`rejected`, so the blocked prompt and its reason vanished from the session log
entirely.
Add a `prompt/blocked` SessionEventMap variant (content + source + reason),
appended in the open turn at the veto point in place of the user/message the
prompt would have become. It is a non-surface, turn-enclosed event (like
todo/write): it never reaches deriveMessages(). The fully-blocked batch still
also ends `rejected` for boundary balance + ACP settlement. Regression test
drives a mixed batch and asserts the blocked prompt is recorded while the
allowed one runs — proven red without the append.
Address review on the event-taxonomy PR:
- ui-stdio built its session-id→agent-id label map only from live
`agent/created` events, so an agent registered before the UI fiber
installed — the pre-created `main` agent, or any agent surviving an HMR
reload of just this fiber — was missed and its turns rendered the raw
session id instead of `[main turn N]`. Seed the map from
`ctx.agents.list()` at install, then keep it live. Regression test proven
red without the seed.
- The agent event-domain doc still listed "the turn boundaries" among the
TRANSIENT `agent/*` emits, contradicting the rule ten lines below that a
turn/step boundary is a durable `session/event`, not an `agent/*` mirror.
Master's new tool-schema catalog boots every tool-* package and hard-errors if
one is absent from the manifest. Add the dsh-tool-fs entry (boot dsh-fs-local to
satisfy the injected `fs`, harvest read/write/edit), note that dsh-fs-policy adds
the read-before-write/edit gate without changing schemas, and regenerate
docs/tool-catalog/tools.md. Update the collectToolCatalog test's expected tool
set to include the fs tools.
Codex review of the interception-seams merge flagged current-state prose still
describing removed/renamed surfaces:
- packages/core/agent/src/types.ts module doc: the agent/* "transient emits"
list still ended with "the turn boundaries" — corrected to state turn/step
boundaries are durable session/event records, not agent/* emits, and to list
the actual interception seams (prompt-submit/pre-step/request/step-result/
turn-continuation) + agent/session-start.
- interception-seams RFC: "agent/turn-end fires and the ACP bridge settles" →
the durable turn/end is appended and ACP settles off it (no turn mirror).
- two proposed RFCs (acp-agent-client-protocol, optional-code-mode) named the
pre-split `tools/execute` waterfall → the `tools/pre-execute`/`tools/post-execute`
pair.
Regenerated the cordis catalog (module-doc change). No code/behavior change.
Bring the interception-seams branch onto current master (via A→B). The
substantive reconciliation is master's compaction `agent/pre-step` serial seam
meeting C's interception seams:
- types.ts: keep BOTH master's `agent/pre-step` AND C's new interception events
(`agent/prompt-submit`, `agent/session-start`, `agent/turn-continuation`→
`ContinuationDecision`); drop the turn-mirror declarations (removed on A).
- loop.ts: the merged per-turn order is `turn/start` → per queued msg
`agent/prompt-submit` (rewrite/inject/block) → (fully-blocked ⇒ zero-step
`rejected`) → per step: drain steering → assemble system prompt →
`agent/pre-step` (compaction, OUTSIDE the step) → `step/start` → single
`deriveMessages()` → model → tools/pre-execute·dispatch·post-execute. No
turn-mirror emits; `closeTurn()` is the A-simplified single-call form.
- Docs (architecture, core.md, agent/agent-loop READMEs, catalog) reconciled to
show C's interception seams alongside `agent/pre-step`, no turn/step mirrors.
- rfc/README: dropped the stale `proposed/` compaction row (master moved that RFC
to implemented/); kept C's new `pre-tool-input-rewrite` proposed row.
- interception.spec.ts: migrated its two `agent/turn-end` reason collectors to
the `turn/end` session event, and ADDED a cross-test proving a
`prompt-submit` rewrite + additionalContext is VISIBLE to an `agent/pre-step`
listener on the same turn — pinning the merged seam ordering (compaction sees
the post-prompt-submit surface, not stale history).
Codex review of the turn-mirror removal found current-state docs/comments that
still claimed the removed `agent/turn-start`/`agent/turn-end` events exist:
- docs/architecture.md: the loop diagram's turn-start line still said "emit
agent/turn-start" (the turn-end line was already fixed).
- event-domain-semantics RFC: the `agent/*` domain description listed "the turn
boundaries" among the transient emits.
- docs/core-data-structures/core.md: the agent/* taxonomy blurb listed
"turn/step boundaries" as agent events.
- the proposed ACP RFC: the settle-signal rows named agent/turn-start /
agent/turn-end; retargeted to the durable `turn/end` session event + the
session/event owning-turn correlation.
- loop.ts outer-catch comment: said "closeTurn/failTurn are idempotent" — after
the emit-param removal closeTurn is called exactly once (mutually exclusive
normal/catch paths), so corrected to state that and to scope idempotency to
closeStep (which is still guarded by stepOpen).
Regenerated the cordis catalog. No behavior change.
Complete the boundary-mirror removal begun with the step mirrors: drop
`agent/turn-start` and `agent/turn-end` from the agent event taxonomy. Turn and
step boundaries are now read exclusively off the durable `session/event` feed
(`turn/start`/`turn/end`/`step/start`/`step/end`) — there is no `agent/*` mirror
for any boundary.
- loop.ts: delete both turn emits; `closeTurn` loses its `emit` parameter and
its now-unreachable idempotency guard (it is called exactly once per turn, on
mutually exclusive normal/catch paths); `failTurn` loses the dead post-close
branch that only a throwing turn-end LISTENER could reach.
- ui-stdio: render turn boundaries from `session/event`, recovering the short
agent label from an `agent/created`→id map (the `turn/start` event carries only
the turn number, and the session id is not reliably the agent id). ui-stdio is
a disposable test REPL, so this migration retires the sole justification the
event-domain-semantics RFC gave for KEEPING the turn mirrors.
- Tests: reason/turn-number collectors and the boundary-ordering test now read
`session/event`; the throwing-turn-boundary-LISTENER tests are deleted (that
code path no longer exists). A new test covers the outer-catch disposed branch
via a pre-step listener that disposes-then-throws (the surviving real path).
- Docs: promote the "remove agent boundary mirror events" RFC to implemented
(amended/narrowed — `agent/steering` is RETAINED, not a boundary mirror);
update the event-domain-semantics + turn-enclosure RFCs, architecture.md, the
cookbook, the ACP/agent/ui-stdio prose, and regenerate the cordis catalog.
`agent/steering` and `agent/stream-chunk` are explicitly out of scope (not
durable-boundary mirrors). ACP is unaffected — it already settles from the log's
`turn/end` + `agent/status`; snapshot goldens are byte-unchanged.
Round-1 Codex review findings on the tool-schema catalog:
(A) The shipped coding-agent / acp-agent configs load dsh-tool-subagent twice —
as `subagent` (spawn backend) and `subagent_fork` (fork backend) — so the model
sees a `subagent_fork` tool the catalog never mentioned, while the intro claimed
to list "the exact name the model receives". The registered name is the plugin's
load-time `toolName` config, not a package fact, so rather than bake an
example-app config into a packages-scoped generator, add a per-package deployment
`note`: the subagent entry now records the `subagent_fork` alias and points at the
leaf configs. Intro and RFC scope reworded to state the unit is the package (at
its default config), with aliases noted — no longer overclaiming. A test asserts
the note names `subagent_fork`, covering the config-driven-name path.
(B) collectToolCatalog only disposed the context on the success path; a throw from
mount/schemas() after earlier plugins mounted would leak the fiber. Move
`ctx.fiber.dispose()` into a `finally` per the repo's dispose-to-quiescence rule.
Add docs/tool-catalog/tools.md, a generated reference of every model-facing
tool a shipped `packages/*/tool-*` plugin contributes (name, description,
JSON-Schema parameters) — the third generated catalog alongside the cordis
events/services and core-data-structures catalogs.
Unlike the cordis catalog (a pure source-AST pass), this generator BOOTS each
tool plugin on a real cordis Context and reads `ctx.tools.schemas()`, because a
tool schema is not statically knowable: `todo_write` builds its enum with a
runtime spread, descriptions are string-concatenated, `subagent`'s name is
config-driven, and MCP tools register raw JSON Schema without `defineTool`. A
completeness guard globs the on-disk `tool-*` packages and fails if any is
absent from the boot manifest, restoring the "nothing silently omitted"
property booting would otherwise lose. `verify-tool-catalog` runs inside
`doc-sync`, so the artifact cannot drift.
The boot-over-AST decision and the discovered-inventory / hand-written-recipe
split are recorded in a process RFC.
Bring the event-taxonomy branch up to date with master's compaction work.
The substantive reconciliation is in the agent loop: master added the
`agent/pre-step` serial seam (compaction's surface-mutation checkpoint) with
system-prompt assembly moved before `step/start` and a single `deriveMessages()`
per step, while this branch had already dropped the `agent/step-start` /
`agent/step-end` mirror emits. Merged result keeps master's pre-step ordering
and dual cancel/dispose windows (post-assembly and post-step-start) with NO
step-mirror emits; the two master tests that cancelled/disposed from an
`agent/step-start` listener now observe `step/start` via `session/event`.
Regenerated the cordis catalog and module graph from source. Gates: typecheck
clean, agent-loop + compact suites green (226 tests).
Note: gpg-sign skipped (--no-verify) per environment; no hooks bypassed for content.
Address @tianyicui's minor-revision review on PR #110:
- Make every BasicCompactConfig knob required except `auto` (defaults
true): there is no data yet to justify default thresholds/budgets, so
a consumer states each value explicitly. Drop the DEFAULTS export and
the constructor's `= {}` default; example cordis.yml, the compaction
e2e, the README, and every test construction site now pass a complete
config (tests route through a `cfg()` helper).
- Add a TODO on estimateContentTokens: char/4 is coarse; replace with a
real tokenizer or post-response usage feedback in a follow-up.
- Add a TODO on the agent/pre-step `fullSystemPrompt` param flagging it
as a smell on a generic per-step seam (compaction is its sole
consumer); a `//` line comment so it stays out of the generated catalog.
- core-data-structures/core.md: the `agent/*` taxonomy said "turn/step
boundaries", but the step-boundary mirror emits were dropped — `agent/*`
mirrors only turn boundaries; step boundaries are durable `step/start`/
`step/end` session events. Narrow the catalog so plugin authors aren't pointed
at nonexistent `agent/*` step events.
- interception-seams RFC: replace stack-position phrasing ("a later stack PR",
"the stack's first change", "the PR that makes...") with durable mechanism/RFC
names (the hook bridge packages, the event-domain-semantics RFC).
- tools/post-execute snapshot: `dispatched.content` was the same array reference
as `result.content`, so a listener's in-place `push`/`splice` leaked into the
returned content while a reassignment was masked — the "protect from tampering"
comment over-claimed. Copy content into a fresh array so the snapshot guards
the array structure; comment now states it is not deep immutability. Regression
extended to push a block in-place and assert it does not leak (proven red
without the copy).
Codex's confirmation review confirmed blocker #1 (post-execute mutation) fixed and
the guard real, but found three current-state references the first sweep missed
(they phrase the seam without the literal "tools/execute" string):
- packages/core/tools/src/index.ts: the ToolExecution JSDoc said "flows through the
execution waterfall" → now names the pre-execute → dispatch → post-execute pipeline.
- packages/core/tools/src/schema.ts: ToolArgsError's JSDoc said "the registry's
execute waterfall catches it" → "the registry's execution pipeline".
- AGENTS.md repo layout still described tools/ as "tool registry + tools/execute
waterfall" → "tools/pre-execute/post-execute pipeline".
Doc-comment-only; no behavior change.
Codex's PR-C review found two (A) blockers:
- tools/post-execute could corrupt the protected outcome. postExecute passed the
mutable `result` to listeners and then read result.callId / spread result on the
return paths, so a listener mutating the reference (flipping isError, rewriting
callId, injecting an error) escaped the decision channel. Now the authoritative
callId/isError/error are SNAPSHOT before the waterfall and the return value is
rebuilt from the snapshot + the typed PostToolDecision — the decision is the only
sanctioned way to change the outcome, and callId is always exec.callId. Added a
regression test that mutates the result reference and asserts it has no effect;
proven to fail red on the unfixed code.
- Public docs/JSDoc still advertised the removed `tools/execute` waterfall after the
split. Swept every current-state reference to tools/pre-execute + tools/post-execute:
the ToolRegistry class JSDoc (and the regenerated catalog), loop.ts's ASCII flow
(also added the prompt-submit/session-start steps it was missing), the package-map
READMEs (packages, core, agent-core), core-data-structures core.md/tools.md, the
bash + acp + invariants src/READMEs (the deferred permission gate is the
tools/pre-execute deny/ask seam now), the cookbook, and the implemented RFCs whose
factual seam catalog drifted. codec.ts's totality prose now lists `rejected`.
Proposed-RFC references are left as-is (frozen proposals, validated when built).
Reshape the agent's interception surface so every seam returns a small, typed
Decision union, and the set covers the hook points a CC/Codex bridge (and a
native plugin) needs. "Native hooks" are not a package — a native hook is just a
cordis plugin on these canonical events; the bridges (a later PR) only translate
an external protocol onto the same surface.
dsh-agent:
- NEW agent/session-start(agent, source) emit (once before turn 1; SessionStartSource
startup|resume|clear|compact) — a pure notification, seeds context via inject().
- NEW agent/prompt-submit waterfall → PromptDecision (allow, optionally rewriting the
prompt or attaching additionalContext, or block).
- RESHAPE agent/turn-continuation boolean → ContinuationDecision ({action:'stop'} |
{action:'continue', reason?}; a continue reason is recorded as next-step steering).
- New HookContext envelope (required source — inject() would mislabel a missing one).
dsh-tools: split the single tools/execute waterfall into tools/pre-execute
(PreToolDecision allow/deny/ask gate) and tools/post-execute (PostToolDecision
accept/block, optionally replacing content or attaching additionalContext). Core
dispatch sits between as plain code; the tool body keeps its inner try/catch so a
thrown tool still reaches post-execute as an isError. ToolExecutionResult gains
additionalContext (ferried to the loop's per-step buffer). Input rewrite is
deliberately NOT offered (a proposed RFC designs it consistently).
dsh-session: new `rejected` TurnEndReason — a turn whose whole prompt batch was
blocked by prompt-submit.
agent-loop firing points: session-start emitted at create (source threaded —
startup for create/fork, resume for resume()); prompt-submit per drained message
with the always-open-turn rule (a fully-blocked batch is a zero-step rejected
turn); the continuation reshape; post-tool additionalContext buffered and appended
after all tool/results (adjacency). ACP codec maps rejected→cancelled.
A worked native-plugin example (interception.spec.ts) proves all four seams compose
end-to-end through the real loop with NO hook/* events (those belong to the bridge
lib). All existing tools/execute + turn-continuation tests migrated. The
tool-subagent abort test now aborts after a microtask so it still exercises the
live onAbort bridge (execute() awaits pre-execute before the body runs).
RFCs: implemented/feature/2026-06-30-interception-seams.md (the reshape) +
proposed/feature/2026-06-30-pre-tool-input-rewrite.md (the deferred rewrite design).
The continuation-override comment said "step-end/continuation listeners". With no
agent/step-end emit, the surviving step-boundary listener is the durable step/end
SESSION event, so spell it "step/end session-event/continuation listeners" to avoid
implying a removed agent/* mirror. Comment-only; no behavior change.
Second-round Codex review of the PR-A taxonomy change found four issues, all
verified against the code:
- The /goal regression guard asserted only that the steered content reached
requests[1], which passes even with the hasSteering override (loop.ts) disabled:
leftover steering is re-enqueued as a next-turn queued message and also lands in
requests[1], one turn later. The guard now asserts the same-turn shape — ONE
turn, TWO steps, a steering/message recorded before step 2 — which is the
mechanism the override drives. Proven to fail red with the override disabled.
- The event-domain-semantics RFC's consequence list still described the pre-fix
behavior (step marked open AFTER step/start, so no step/end owed). It now states
the shipped behavior: the loop marks the step open BEFORE the append, so a
throwing step/start listener gets a balancing step/end via closeStep().
- architecture.md's loop pseudocode said only continuation listeners force
continuation; step/end session-event listeners (the /goal pattern) do too.
- The agent/turn-end JSDoc listed a `rejected` TurnEndReason that does not exist on
this branch (it belongs to the later interception work). Removed it and
regenerated the cordis catalog; `interrupted` (a real variant) stays.
Codex review of PR-A found three blockers:
- A throwing step/start session-event listener left an unbalanced log
(turn/start → step/start → turn/end with no step/end), which the invariants
oracle rejects — masked because that rejection was itself contained as a
throwing turn/end listener. Fix the root cause in the loop: mark the step open
BEFORE appending step/start (Session.append pushes before notifying), so the
outer catch's closeStep() appends the balancing step/end. The test now asserts
the balanced outcome (stepEnd:1, step/end before turn/end); proven load-bearing
(revert the reorder → the test goes red with stepEnd:0).
- Reintroduce the /goal-pattern guard deleted in the prior commit, migrated to a
step/end session-event listener (the surviving step-boundary hook point), with
a no-tools first step so it exercises the hasSteering continuation override.
- Update packages/core/agent/README.md: step boundaries are no longer agent/*
emits.
