Integrate the Commander argument adapter and dsh-front-door work with master's
config-tree `dsh web` (#601: AppCLIEntry + apps/cli/cordis.yml) and the
packages/ui/acp → packages/acp/acp relocation.
- web.ts: keep master's AppCLIEntry-based boot, but take the adapter's parsed
(host, port, dev) instead of an internal parseArgs. The adapter's host/port
defaults (127.0.0.1/3080) match cordis.yml, so always passing them is
behavior-equivalent to master's "undefined keeps the yml default".
- apps/cli/package.json: master's expanded config-tree dep set + commander.
- retire-readline Agent Note: point the TUI refusal proof at
apps/cli/tests/built-bin.e2e.ts (both languages), re-record the pair.
- READMEs reconciled (demo-bin removal + master's ACP/channel rewording).
Address review and cut ceremony: the adapter no longer models help/version/
errors as DshInvocation members. Commander owns those under exitOverride — it
prints usage or the diagnostic and one try/catch in parseDshArgs turns the
thrown CommanderError into process.exit with the intended code. bin.ts drops its
help/version/error cases; the union is the three real modes.
Domain checks bail via command.error(print + exit 1): --prompt rejects an empty
task or a stray config/--resume, empty --resume= fails loud, and --host/--port
are validated. A repeated --resume or a flag captured as a value is Commander's
standard behavior, left alone (a bad id fails loud downstream). dsh --help
discloses web via addHelpText. Net: args.ts 185 -> 112 lines.
Also fixes review nits: built-bin e2e resolves on `close`; the /resume handoff
uses `dsh --resume=<id> -- <config>` so a config named `web` stays a positional;
and stale prose (cordis.yml comment, app-boot module doc + duplicate JSDoc,
ui/README, two feature notes, an agent-loop test name) tracks the shipped state.
Removes tui-demo's now-dead plugin-include dep and vendor/loader + app-boot
tsconfig references.
Move the interactive pi-tui front door into @deepseek-ai/dsh-tui while keeping @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio line-oriented for pipes. Select the terminal package in the demo app, preserve logger ownership, and cover the production Loader composition with a PTY smoke test.
Add the packages/examples/ group README, drop the moved packages from the
core/ and ui/ group READMEs, and add the examples/ row to the packages
hierarchy table and the repo-layout in AGENTS.md.
A preset names a bundle of the two mechanism knobs — request =
workspace-write + ask, yolo = danger-full-access + never — so the editor
shows ONE 'Permissions' select where the sandbox-mode and approval-policy
tiers stay orthogonal capabilities (the Codex /approvals shape: presets over
two dials). ctx.permission (dsh-permission) owns the config-defined table,
validates the default preset's bundle against the composed knob defaults at
load (fails loud), and writes a switch THROUGH: one log-only
permission/preset event (the audit fact reverse-mapping cannot recover —
the planned 'agent' preset shares request's knob values and differs only in
composed policy) plus each knob event via its own setter, deduped — a
net-zero switch appends nothing. Every knob consumer keeps reading its own
fold, untouched.
The current preset DERIVES from the effective knob values — the fold breaks
bundle ties, a knob state outside the table is the reserved 'custom' value
(a state, not an error: shown while it holds, switchable FROM, never a
target), and defaultPreset disappears (zero-event state reverse-maps from
the composition defaults).
The ACP bridge drops the two per-knob selects for the one preset select
(advertised only when ctx.permission is composed); pending/anchor/no-op
semantics carry over unchanged, with the no-op echo acknowledged before
vocabulary validation so a client re-pushing a derived 'custom' current
never errors. The sandbox variant example composes the
service with a workspace-write default; the permission-switching,
escalation-approved and escalation-rejected scenarios are re-recorded under
it (escalations now target an outside-workspace /tmp path under
danger-full-access, self-cleaning) and config-options is re-authored on the
single-select wire.
The four near-twin helpers the two published bins carried — loadEnv,
installFailLoud, assertEntriesLoaded, boot — live once in
packages/ui/app-boot, parameterized by the bin's diagnostic prefix and
injectable at their side-effect seams (warn sink, process slice), so
every branch sits under the per-file 100% coverage gate: the unit suite
drives boot() in-process against the real Loader (relative-specifier
configs) through both the settled-tree path and the fiber-less-entry
rejection, and exercises the ENOENT/unloadable .env split, the
Error/non-Error/stackless fail-loud arms, and the disabled-entry
exclusion. resolveConfigPath (snapshot-aware) becomes the single path
resolver for both bins.
Each bin.ts is now a thin self-executing composition plus its
app-specific lifecycle (acp: replay env-skip + stdin-EOF dispose;
stdio: nothing extra), exports nothing, and stays coverage-excluded;
the built-bin smokes still prove both artifacts under plain node in the
node_modules-shaped temp dir (now symlinking ui/app-boot), including
the missing-config non-zero exit.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/simplification/2026-07-04-share-app-bin-boot-glue.md
(moved from proposed/ and amended); the extract-example-app-packages
RFC's bin-ownership facts are amended in the same change.
The readline UI lives inside @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent as the
in-package stdio-chat module; the packages/support/ui-stdio package is
gone. The app's front-door cluster always includes this UI and nothing
else composes it, so the boundary bought manifest/tsconfig/module-graph/
README/publint surface for a helper that is not independently
swappable — and a product app no longer depends on a support package
documented as not-product-surface.
createStdioChat, the StdioRuntime test seam, and both unit suites moved
verbatim (imports rewired to the module path); the named
name/inject/Config/apply export shape stays, being the contract the
app's ctx.plugin mount consumes. Coverage stays per-file 100%; the
built-bin smoke under plain node and both keyless Loader-path smokes
prove the published artifact and the demos end-to-end.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/simplification/2026-07-04-fold-stdio-ui-helper.md
(moved from proposed/ and amended to the shipped shape).
Implements docs/rfc/.../2026-06-20-extract-example-app-packages.md. Each
example was thick — a hand-rolled start.ts, an infra preamble, nested
base.yml/base-core.yml/acp-tail.yml includes, and a coupled front-door
cluster enforced only by prose. This moves the composition into packages so
each example is a thin leaf cordis.yml: pick the swappable backends, load one
app package.
New packages:
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-core (packages/core/agent-core): one bundle plugin
that loads the providerless/executor-less/UI-less spine (timer + llm +
sessions + system-prompt + tools + agents + invariants + tool-bash +
agent-loop) via ctx.plugin(...) inside apply(), and forwards agent-loop's
`agents` list as its own Config (export const Config = AgentLoop.Config,
default []).
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent (packages/ui/stdio-agent): terminal chat APP —
agent-core + console logger + readline UI + a pre-created `main` agent, with
a bin. The demo:echo/coding front door.
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent (packages/ui/acp-agent): ACP server APP —
agent-core + JSONL persistence + the acp bridge, NO stdout logger, with a
bin. The stdout-purity footgun is structurally unreachable from the leaf.
Amendment to the RFC: hmr stays a LEAF cordis.yml entry, not baked into
dsh-stdio-agent. hmr is a Loader-only dev plugin (throws without
--expose-internals; the in-process test tier can't even import its decorator
form), so a package statically importing it could never carry the per-file
coverage gate. Unlike the console logger, a stray hmr is not a stdout-purity
footgun, so leaving it at the leaf costs no safety. With hmr out, all three new
packages carry in-process unit specs at 100%.
Boot glue (Loader tail, .env load, snapshot-mode selection, stdin-dispose
lifecycle) moves into each app's bin; start.ts and base.yml/base-core.yml/
acp-tail.yml are deleted. Each app package gets a keyless real-load-path test
that boots through its bin + the cordis Loader (guarding the unwrapExports
export-shape bug class, postmortem 0001). ACP snapshot replay stays green
against the existing committed goldens (pure boot restructuring). RFC moved
proposed->implemented with the amendment recorded; package/example/architecture
docs and the module graph updated.
Add a README to each group dir (core/llm/bash/session-persistence/ui/
support) stating its role and product-vs-support classification, and
rewrite packages/README.md around the hierarchy (group table, grouped
"what goes where", removed the package-hierarchy FIXME).
Move the package-hierarchy RFC to implemented/architecture/ and rewrite
it to describe what shipped (placement rationale, the paths-wildcard and
publint dedup, the two new guardrail gates). Fold the remaining
tsconfig.build.json references dedup into the discover-package-inventory
proposal and fix its cross-link.
Update AGENTS.md: regrouped repo-layout map, depth-2 globs, the new
verify-package-paths gate in the doc-sync listing, and a note that we
lean toward stricter lint in the agentic-coding era (machine-caught
errors and a consistent foundation outweigh the one-time cost).
