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).
The dsh-tools half of the Code Mode RFC (its fourth, final change): the
registry gains its first config — mode: native | code | both — and OWNS how
its tools reach the model. 'code' contributes exactly one wire tool,
run_code, plus a lazy tools:sdk prompt section declaring every other tool
as a generated TypeScript API (jsonSchemaToTs: total over the defineTool
subset, unknown degradation, lexicographic byte-identical rendering);
'both' ships both representations; 'native' is byte-for-byte the old
behavior. Non-native modes fail every assembly loudly without a
typescript-language ctx.codeRuntime.
run_code's dispatch bridge: JSON-normalizes each binding argument before
dispatch (what dispatches is what the tool/code-dispatch event logs — the
append can never fail on payload shape; BigInt/circulars reject that one
call), serializes all program tool calls through a per-run queue (even
Promise.all — no concurrency-safety metadata yet), routes every sub-call
through tools/pre-execute → tools/post-execute (a deny rejects the
program-side promise), drops sub-call additionalContext (no safe outlet
mid-run; pinned), owns a run-scoped abort that follows the outer signal in
and fires on settlement (in-flight sub-dispatch aborted, queued abandoned,
queue drained before returning), and converts a failed run into
CodeRunFailedError → a structured isError carrying kind + captured logs.
tool/code-dispatch joins SessionEventMap by declaration merging (log-only;
deriveMessages ignores it).
The composed surface: the tools config forwards through agent-core and
both app packages; examples/code-agent + demo:code run the worker runtime
under mode code (keyless boot smoke + a with-key e2e proving the collapsed
[run_code] header, the dispatch events, and the file the program wrote);
two new snapshot scenarios (code-mode-turn, both-mode-turn) record the SDK
section, collapsed header, dispatch events, and result card — each its own
header-pinning class (the harness gains per-scenario config overlays and
per-class pins). Catalogs, graphs, cookbook, hooks-bridge notes, and the
RFC (moved to implemented/, restructured to decision-era headings) updated
in the same change.
Codex review of the draft: the abort-on-dispose tests asserted only that
dispose() resolved and no warning fired — a regression back to untracked
fire-and-forget runs would pass both. The hook script now records its
shell PID before sleeping, and after dispose the test asserts
process.kill(pid, 0) throws: the drain resolves only after the killed
run settled (the child reaped), so ESRCH-by-dispose-return is
deterministic under the correct implementation, while an alive or
unreaped process fails it. Verified the discriminator by gutting drain()
locally: exactly these two tests fail.
The emit-shaped hook points (SessionStart, SubagentStart, SubagentStop)
run fire-and-forget: no seam awaits the run chain, so disposing a bridge
could strand a live hook process and let a late continuation inject into
a disposed context. The floating continuation also made the coverage
gate racy: the only coverage of the SubagentStart continuation's
no-context branch arm rode on an un-awaited .then, and on a loaded CI
runner the fork's per-file coverage snapshot beat it — master run
28798191671 failed the 100% branch gate on hooks-claude/src/index.ts at
99.03% (uncovered line 336) with the identical tree passing the PR run
three minutes earlier.
New shared primitive createDetachedRuns() in dsh-hook-protocol: a bridge
tracks each detached run chain, passes the tracker's abort signal to
runHook, and registers drain() as its effect disposer — drain aborts
still-running hook processes (a kill via the bash seam, not a wait out
to the 10-minute default hook timeout), then resolves once every chain
has settled. fiber.dispose() resolving now means the bridge's detached
work is quiescent (docs/defensive-patterns.md).
The subagent marker test disposes the bridge as its sync point, so the
formerly racy branch arm is executed deterministically before the file's
coverage snapshot; new tests pin abort-on-dispose promptness for both
bridges and the tracker's settle/drain contract in hook-protocol.
New doc-sync gate verify-export-jsdoc walks every module-level exported
name under packages/*/*/src and requires description prose everywhere,
plus @param per parameter and @returns on non-void annotated returns for
function-like exports, public class methods, properties, and accessors.
The parsing + check helpers move out of gen-cordis-catalog.ts into a
shared scripts/jsdoc.ts so 'documented' means one thing on both gated
surfaces.
Deliberate exemptions (documented in the RFC): heritage-declared class
members (the seam declaration is the doc's one home — the one checker
query in an otherwise pure-AST walk), cordis plugin-protocol slots
(name/inject/reusable/Config/apply, top-level and static), constructors,
overload implementations, declare-module augmentation bodies, and
re-export statements (checked at the defining module).
The 203 under-documented exports the gate found at adoption are filled
in this change, so the gate lands green; generated catalogs/graphs are
regenerated for the shifted line pointers.

Reverses item 3 of the tighten-hook-protocol-contract RFC per review:
a persistence log is written for future readers, and hook wall-clock
runtime is audit signal (which hook made a turn slow). runHook keeps
its injected now clock and RunHookResult wrapper, the bridges pass the
measured duration through HookResultRecord, the snapshot normalizer
keeps its replay scrub, and the hook fixtures carry the field again.
The RFC records the reversal; the other three prunes stand.
