Address the review bot's five genuinely-new findings on the current code:
- disposal now discards any still-pending inbox items before the loop
exits, so every enqueued id gets a terminal lifecycle event.
- injection (next-step/no-wakeup) validates its payload up front, before
opening the idle one-shot turn, honoring 'invalid input throws before
any append'; and rejects attached contexts (which belong only to inbox
messages) rather than silently dropping them.
- agentMessage() freezes the agent/inbox/* payload so a listener cannot
mutate the shared correlation object mid-dispatch.
- refresh the package READMEs (compact, goal, guard, hook-protocol,
plan-mode, time-context, workspace-context) that still referenced the
removed context/message event, with the source-based user/message
distinction.
The up-front injection validation makes two finally branches unreachable
(v8-ignored as the turn-enclosure backstop). Adds regression tests for
disposal discard, context rejection, up-front validation, and the frozen
payload; per-file coverage stays 100%.
Automatic compaction fires mid-conversation, right after the loop warmed
the provider's KV cache with the last routed request. The default
summarizer then issued a separate request whose prefix shared nothing
with that warm request — a bespoke summarizer system prompt followed by
the older history flattened to one rendered transcript string — so a
differing first token invalidated the entire cached prefix and every
compaction re-processed the whole replayed history twice.
Move the compaction directive from the FRONT (a fresh system prompt) to
the END (a trailing user message), and replay the last routed request's
own system prompt, tools, message prefix, and shadowed-region messages
verbatim via session.requestHeader() + deriveEventMessage. The auxiliary
call is now a genuine prefix-extension of the warm request, so the
provider reuses the cached tokens up to the trailing instruction.
SummarizationInput carries the replayed prefix instead of a flat string;
the now-unused renderTranscript/renderContentBlocks path is removed with
its spec. Cache reuse is best-effort (head compaction guarantees a hit;
a mid-range compaction or a differently-routed summarizer forgoes it),
correctness is not.
Retarget the pruning feature onto the merged compaction foundation.
Adapt content-only tool-result rewrite validation to the session-owned surface manager, migrate the demo wiring to repl-agent, and refresh generated type, catalog, and website contracts while preserving pressure and overflow pruning behavior.
toolPairingBalancedAfter previously answered by resolving a cached
positional successor and reading its before-balance, with a null-successor
depth fallback. Both queries are the same prefix property sampled at
adjacent cuts, so the cache now holds one per-cut balance sequence
(N nodes -> N+1 cuts) plus a seq->position index; before/after differ
only by a cut offset. The successor map, the duplicate rebuild/extend
fold loops, and the non-null assertion are gone, and the running counter
is named inProgressToolCalls. Docs describing the successor mechanism
are updated in place.
Every packages/*/* README now carries a canonical '## Known Limitations and
Deferred Work' section: condensed, evidence-backed bullets for consumer-visible
gaps (unimplemented features, platform caveats, MVP cuts) and consciously
postponed work (TODO/FIXME/XXX markers, RFC deferrals still open). The ten
pre-existing ad-hoc variants ('What is NOT here (TODO)', 'Deferred',
'Limitations (MVP)', 'Known limitations (tracked TODOs)', ...) are normalized
into the canonical heading.
A new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-readme-limitations.ts, enforces the shape:
exactly one limitations-like heading per package README, byte-equal to the
canonical h2, with at least one bullet; near-miss headings fail so variants
cannot creep back. Packages with genuinely nothing to declare (dsh-brand,
dsh-timeout, dsh-subagent-mock, dsh-app-boot) are whitelisted in the script and
must NOT carry the section; whitelist entries are validated against the scanned
package set so a rename fails loud.
Wired into the doc-sync chain (package.json) and the run-gates doc-sync leaf
set; the standing rule lands in packages/AGENTS.md and the adding-a-package
cookbook; decision record in
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-10-readme-known-limitations-gate.md
(RFC index regenerated).
Also fixes two stale '(deferred)' markers claiming dsh-compact-basic is
unimplemented (the dsh-compact seam README's package table and the seam's
module doc comment).
Move compact-basic's private _extractText/_blocksToText into the interface
package as renderTranscript/renderContentBlocks, so the summarize path and a
future recall read path render one span identically. Byte-identical output
vs the private helpers it replaces; compact-basic delegates.
The seam gained sessionPrefix between fullSystemPrompt and signal in
18d478bc, but the compact README member table and the compaction
core-data-structures page still showed the 3-arg form and listed only
agent/system/signal as what pre-step supplies. The generated service
catalog was already correct; only these two prose homes drifted.
A directory holding exactly one file adds a path level for nothing;
cordis-catalog/ keeps its folder because it holds two sibling pages
(events.md + services.md), matching config-catalog.md which was born flat.
docs/tool-catalog/tools.md -> docs/tool-catalog.md and
docs/persistence-catalog/log-events.md -> docs/persistence-catalog.md; their
generators' OUT paths and in-page relative links drop one directory level,
and every citation repo-wide (docs, RFCs, package READMEs, generator
headers) is updated. graph-atlas.md, config-catalog.md, and the doc graphs
regenerate with the new paths.
The summarization request no longer dispatches agent/request — that seam
shapes the loop's conversation requests; a hand-built one-shot's
interception surface is llm/stream, like every other direct call. The
model comes from summarizationModel falling back to the agent's own. The
turn/step parameters existed on the compact seam only to feed the
agent/request dispatch and leave compactIfNeeded/compactRegion.
Groundwork for making every conversation request a pure function of the
session log (reconstructability RFC, this branch): the seam split keeps
the loop's request path as the single thing the log must explain.
Ported from worktree-prompt-prefix-stability (PR #162) where it was
review-converged; catalog and producer/consumer graphs regenerated.
docs/persistence-catalog/log-events.md enumerates every SessionEventMap
member — the owning dsh-session vocabulary plus the dsh-compact and
dsh-hook-protocol declaration merges — with payload, surface/log-only badge,
JSDoc prose, and declaration site. scripts/gen-persistence-catalog.ts is a
pure AST pass in the gen-cordis-catalog mold: verify-persistence-catalog
(--check) joins doc-sync, so a stale committed catalog fails pre-push and CI.
The walk enforces JSDoc completeness (every member needs description prose;
@mode is rejected as a category error — log events do not dispatch on the
cordis bus), derives the surface badge from the SurfaceEventType union with a
stale-member cross-check, and hard-errors on duplicate declarations. Payloads
render through the TypeScript printer so newline-separated multi-line type
literals still emit valid one-line fragments.
Documented the five previously JSDoc-less core events (turn/step boundaries,
tool/call), removed the two stray @mode tags on the hook/* merges, and
replaced the hand-restated event enumerations (session.md hook/* table,
compact README table, hook-protocol README bullets, session README name-list
— whose merge note had already drifted) with links to the catalog. RFC:
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-04-persistence-log-catalog.md.
The convergence pass found four summary-level sites still describing
the estimator as fixed char/4: packages/README.md (twice), the compact
group and interface READMEs, and compact-basic's package.json
description. All now say chars-per-token with the charsPerToken
default, matching the authoritative package README/module doc/RFC.
