The proposed forms claimed examples/sandbox-acp-agent, its recorded
scenarios, and the approval servicing of ask as already existing; a reader
of this docs-only change would look for a composition and goldens that are
not in the tree. Usage walkthroughs now name the arc the staged scenarios
are to record, both Testing sections open with the plan-time banner, and
the grounding bullet states todays degrade honestly.
Plan mode's stage 1 (RFC 2026-07-07-plan-mode): a new packages/mode/ group
with one product package owning the mode/set SessionEventMap vocabulary
(log-only, non-surface, whole-value replace), the pure foldMode, and the
ctx.modes service (list/get/set). User flips are pending intents flushed
at turn/start / step/end — turn enclosure makes an idle append illegal —
with one coalesced context/message notice when the flushed mode differs
from what the last logged request header told the model; a folded mode
the config no longer defines reads as default plus one boundary notice.
Enforcement is two covering layers: a system-prompt/assemble wrapper
filters the RETURNED assembly's tools to the mode's allowlist (and shows
exit_plan_mode IFF the folded mode is plan) beside the mode:policy
section at order 50, and a tools/pre-execute gate denies deny-by-default
against the same allowlist, judging by the logged mode only. The default
mode is the absence of policy — assemblies stay byte-identical to a
no-dsh-mode deployment.
AgentOptions.mode (declaration-merged) seeds a child's initial mode
through the same flush on agent/created; the stdio app gains /mode
(print/switch, never sent to the model) over an opportunistic
ctx.get('modes'). Config is an explicit resolve step: the built-in plan
definition (read-only allowlist; bash/subagent excluded until the
sandbox family lands) merges unless overridden, 'default' as a key
throws at load, unknown names throw at set() time.
The RFC seated the exit approval on the approval seam because that was
the only asking machinery in flight when it was written. ask_user_question
has since merged (PR #108): the exit moment is a question, not a
permission — the user-interaction seam gives the review options plus a
free-text channel, so a keep-planning answer carries the user's feedback
to the model verbatim, and an approval can later grow options. The gate
no longer returns ask (that vocabulary stays free for genuine permission
gating); the tool conducts the review inside its own execution and
degrades to manual mode-toggling without a provider. The approval-seam
shape moves to Alternatives considered with the reasoning.
Consequences: the roadmap's hard prerequisite on the sandbox branch
disappears (this stack bases on master), the recorded scenarios script
elicitation answers instead of permission answers, and the ACP v2
session-mode-removal direction is recorded as an accepted migration
risk.
Adopts #211 (Code Mode tools: run_code + the code/both-mode snapshot
scenarios). Tool-catalog expectations take the union (run_code +
task_*); the two new pinsHeader fixtures (code-mode-turn,
both-mode-turn) were recorded on master without the task runtime, so
they are re-pinned KEYLESSLY by replaying their recorded chunks against
the merged tree (same procedure as text-turn) — the fixture diff is
exactly the header delta: task tool schemas, the tool:tasks prompt
section, and the bash background wording.
Master advanced 11 commits mid-merge (the Code Mode registry integration:
mode config, run_code, the tools:sdk section, the ACP run_code cards and
unified demos). The fusion makes Code Mode scope-aware end to end:
- wireSchemas(scope): the mode-aware wire contribution is computed from the
CALLING SCOPE's visible set (scoped tools join, shadowing and restrictions
apply) and feeds the {schemas, knownNames} provider protocol.
- knownNames under the mode collapse: a per-scope RESTRICTION is runtime
state, so the universe stays pre-restriction (a restricted-away tool in
toolOrder is a normal absence) — but the MODE collapse is deployment
config, so under mode 'code' the universe is [run_code] and a toolOrder
naming a native tool fails every assembly loud (master's tested decision,
kept).
- The tools:sdk section renders per assembly CONTEXT: the SDK declares
exactly the calling agent's callable set, using the section-text provider
signature this branch already had.
- run_code bindings enumerate schemas(exec.agent) — a program can bind
exactly what its prompt promised; sub-dispatches already threaded
exec.agent through registry.execute, so scoped resolution and carriers
flow unchanged.
- dsh-tools declares both sides' new deps (dsh-scope + dsh-session);
lockfile and all generated catalogs/graphs/api-catalog regenerated.
Gates green on the merged tree: typecheck, lint, per-file 100% coverage
(2710 tests), snapshots (41), doc-sync, module graph, build, hygiene, demo
smoke.
enableRunInBackground: false removed the parameter from the advertised
schema only — the arg validator deliberately allows undeclared keys, so
a caller (or a model that has seen the parameter elsewhere) could still
force run_in_background: true and start background work past the
deployment's opt-out, in both tool-bash and tool-subagent. Both
producers now refuse the forced key loud in execute(); tests pin the
refusal (and that nothing spawns) alongside the untouched foreground
path; the schema-omission-is-advertising rule is recorded in the
runtime RFC and both READMEs.
'validates against config' plus "'default' rejected as a key" read
together let an implementer reject set(agent, 'default'), which would
contradict the picker's default entry and block the user-driven exit
the no-answerer degrade relies on. Validation is against list()'s
vocabulary: config keys plus the reserved default.
Reorganize along Problem / Proposal / High-level API / Detailed design /
Roadmap / FAQ / Prior art / Alternatives / Acceptance / Risks. The
product survey and Pi failure shapes move to Prior art; user-facing
behavior (walkthrough, cordis.yml config, stdio, ACP, ctx.modes) gets
its own High-level API section; FAQ collects behavioral clarifications
of the chosen design, disjoint from Alternatives (rejected designs) and
Risks (accepted costs). The zh counterpart and its pairing metadata are
removed; the RFC is English-only (not in the required-pairs manifest).
Master brought 50 commits (the tool-cordis group, dsh-code-runtime + worker,
the tools/execute around-dispatch seam + timeout-policy, repeat-tool-guard,
agent/session-prefix, the ui reorganization). Beyond the ten textual
conflicts, the merge reconciles master's new seams with this branch's
scoped-registration world:
- tools/execute (new waterfall around core dispatch): dispatched with the
SAME exec.agent carrier as the pre/post waterfalls — an agent.ctx wrapper
times/retries only its own agent's calls — and its base thunk resolves the
tool through the caller's visible view (get(exec.name, exec.agent)), so a
scoped/shadowed tool dispatches and a restricted-away global stays
UNKNOWN_TOOL. Declared this: Scoped<ToolRegistry> with the scope-filtered
doc sentence; invariants table + verify-scoped-dispatch pin it (21 events).
- agent/session-prefix (new waterfall, once per loop instance): composed via
the fused agentEvents dispatcher (scope-filtered like every agent-subject
event), declared this: Scoped<Agent>, table-pinned. agent/pre-step keeps
master's new sessionPrefix parameter with this branch's Scoped this.
- timeout-policy reads the budget through the caller's visible view
(get(exec.name, exec.agent)): a scoped tool's own timeoutMs governs its
calls; a global name-twin's budget is never misapplied to a shadowing
per-agent variant.
- tool-cordis: cordis_inspect's tools section lists the CALLING agent's view
(its description promises "what you can call"); the sandbox tool façade's
reads resolve through the mount's own scope, mirroring where its register
lands writes; sandboxRegisterTool's return type carries the exact-disposer
union honestly. dsh-scope declared as peer+dev with the project reference.
- doc-sync chain unions master's verify-cordis-api with this branch's
verify-scoped-dispatch; the generated catalogs, event matrix (the
zero-dispatcher guard passes over master's new events), module graph, and
the cordis api-catalog are regenerated on the merged surface.
Full gate sequence green on the merged tree: typecheck, lint, per-file 100%
coverage (2668 tests), snapshots (38), doc-sync, module graph, build,
hygiene, demo smoke.
Two windows where settle() could read a live waiter count, mark the
task reported (suppressing the completion notice), and then watch that
waiter reject with 'wait aborted' delivering nothing — leaving the
owning session with no terminal notification at all:
- abort and settlement in the same tick, settle continuation ordered
first: the waiter now un-counts itself SYNCHRONOUSLY inside onAbort
(the finally decrement alone lands a microtask too late), so the
settle path sees no live waiter and the notice fires;
- abort landing after settlement but before the wait's resolve
microtask: the wait now resolves and DELIVERS the terminal snapshot
it owes instead of rejecting (settlement suppressed the notice on
this waiter's behalf).
Both windows pinned by deterministic tests that fail on the previous
implementation; wait()'s abort contract updated in JSDoc/README/RFC.
agent-end was worker-authored only, so a start already forwarded to
observers lost its paired end whenever the worker could no longer speak
- the grace force-settle terminating a wedged script, or an unexpected
worker death - stranding progress consumers with agents that never
finish (ds-review-bot finding on #233).
The host now keeps a ledger of forwarded starts and funnels every
agent-end through one gate: worker-reported ends pair (and clear) their
entry, and both termination paths drain the remainder as synthesized
'cancelled' ends BEFORE the run settles, so ends always precede
workflow/end. A real settlement racing the force-settle loses to the
synthesized cancellation - the same first-wins override onResult applies
to the run's own result.
Adopts #220 (tool-cordis + the gen-cordis-api gate: the runtime API
catalog regenerated with ctx.tasks/onCleanup on it) and #225 (shared
transcript renderer). Tool-catalog expectations take the union
(cordis_* + task_*); packages/README budget adopts master's 660
ceiling, which absorbs both new group rows.
The sandbox execute wrapper JSON round-tripped the return and blindly cast it
to ToolExecuteReturn. A JSON-valid but wrong-shape return — a bare string,
{ content: 'ok' }, blocks without a type tag — sailed through: the registry
spreads result.content, so { content: 'ok' } became ['o','k'], passed the
session log's isJsonValue gate, and the DeepSeek serializer then flattened it
to '(no output)' — silent corruption of the next model request and every
replay, instead of a contained tool error.
The round-tripped value is now shape-checked against the two ToolExecuteReturn
forms (array of content blocks, or { content: blocks, meta? }); block checks
are structural only (plain object + string type tag) because the ContentBlock
union is merge-extensible. A wrong shape — and the formerly cryptic
forgot-return/bare-string cases — fails that one call with a teaching error
echoing a truncated preview of what was returned and the two valid forms.
New specs pin the object-form pass-through (meta included), six rejection
shapes, and the preview truncation; per-file 100% coverage holds.
start({ kind, label, owner, run }) preflights everything that can fail
(the attachSurface fence, validation, the owner-cleanup attach) BEFORE
invoking the producer's run() starter, then commits atomically —
'work started but never got a collectable id' is now structurally
impossible instead of a producer try/catch rollback obligation (the
P1 review fix, rebuilt on #185's declare/execute split). Producers
lose their catch-wraps; the leak tests now pin the stronger property
that a failed preflight never spawns anything. TaskRegistration splits
into TaskStart (identity + run) and TaskHooks (cancel/done/readOutput);
docs, type-equiv manifest, catalogs, and both RFCs move with it.
ctx.tasks.wait arms a deadline() fusing the caller's abort with the
wait timeout and classifies the outcome with timeoutOf scoped to the
new TASK_WAIT_TIMEOUT code: a wait timeout resolves to the live
snapshot (the task keeps running), a caller abort rejects the wait —
same contract, no hand-rolled timer/listener plumbing, and a nested
foreign deadline can no longer misread as a wait timeout. task_output
deliberately declares NO ToolDefinition.timeoutMs: timeout-policy
turns a timed-out call into a structured TOOL_TIMEOUT failure, but a
timed-out wait is a SUCCESS that must still report [status: running]
(decision recorded in the runtime RFC alternatives).
Adopts #185 (dsh-timeout: clampTimeout/deadline/timeoutOf drive bash
run() timeout classification; runBash loses its own timer) and #108
(ask_user_question) across the task-runtime rework: bash-local keeps
the BashProcess handle shape with master's deadline mechanics, tool
catalogs/expectations carry both the task_* and ask-user tools, and
generated docs are regenerated on the union.
One shared ctx.tasks registry (branded <kind>-N ids, owner-fenced
read/kill/wait/list, attachSurface misconfiguration fence, reported-flag
notice dedup, atomic register) + dsh-tool-tasks (task_output/task_list/
task_kill, completion-notice injection, background prompt habit).
Producers opt in via their own enableRunInBackground config: bash
(stream kind; seam slimmed to resolve/run/start returning a BashProcess
handle, bash_output/bash_kill deleted) and subagent (final-output kind;
done settles after run.dispose()). Owner disposal drains tasks through
the new awaited ctx.agents.onCleanup seam in the loop's disposal chain.
Both RFCs moved to implemented/; docs, catalogs, snapshots re-pinned.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-09-bash-backed-grep-glob-
discovery.md: model-facing glob/grep in a new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs-search
package, executing fixed ripgrep templates through ctx.bash.resolve/run —
not ctx.fs provider methods — so filesystem backends stay free of a search
contract and sandboxed/remote executors substitute cleanly. The tools never
call ctx.bash.start(); the tool layer owns quoting (one singleQuote safety
boundary), rg --json parsing, ItemRetainer/TextRetainer retention, and the
first tool-owned ctx.spillFiles.saveText() handoff (item-level retention the
generic post-execute spill policy cannot recover).
RFC amendments on the way to implemented/: a shared src/search-core.ts (the
SEARCH_* vocabulary + bash-run/raw-spill/spill plumbing was byte-identical
across both tools — the missed-extraction smell), and a snapshot-gap note:
wiring the acp-agent tree changes the assembled prompt, so goldens need a
keyed re-record; the spill notice text is pinned by unit tests instead and
only the coding-agent example ships the tools for now.
P1 review finding: extractMeta timed only the literal's vm evaluation;
materializing the RESULT then read properties ordinarily on the HOST
stack, so a meta literal smuggling a getter (get name() { while(true){} })
could wedge the host outside any timeout — defeating the exact spin
isolation the worker thread exists for.
Rather than harden the evaluator (descriptor walks, AST validation),
delete the mechanism: the workflow's identity now reaches the seam as a
plain JSON field (WorkflowStartRequest.meta), carried by the tool as a
schema-validated `meta` object parameter the model fills directly. The
engine only shape-validates data (validateMeta, every violation named)
and pre-parses the body; the scanner, the vm evaluation, and the
host-side materialization are gone, and with them the hole. A body
still opening with a Claude Code-style `export const meta` statement
gets a pointed SCRIPT_PARSE message (the likeliest authoring slip; a
CC script's body stays drop-in, only its meta header moves into the
parameter). syncTimeoutMs now governs exactly one thing: the initial
synchronous slice inside the worker.
The RFC's decision section is rewritten in place (implemented-RFC
rule); the embedded-meta format moves to alternatives-considered with
the hole as the reason. Tool description, presentation (title now reads
meta.name directly — the textual sniff is gone), seam vocabulary docs,
and catalogs follow.
Pure mechanical rename now that the package's internals are the
worker-thread engine: directory, package name, spec/e2e filenames,
module tags and logger prefixes, tsconfig/knip/run-gates/AGENTS.md
references, example cordis.yml plugin ids, doc links; catalogs
regenerated and the lockfile refreshed.
The outer ring catches up with the engine swap (the package's own
README/JSDoc rode the port commit):
- Seam module doc and README name the worker-thread engine as THE
implementation, with isolated-vm/separate-process sandboxing as the
deferred hardening; the seam service doc states the holder-owned-runs
contract (engine-fiber disposal deliberately leaves live runs to
their holders).
- Seam contract precision: agentsStarted documents the termination-path
degradation to the host-observed count; the events section scopes the
agent-start/agent-end pair to calls that STARTED a child run;
WorkflowRun wording drops the vm-era abandonment language.
- The dynamic-workflows RFC is rewritten in place to the shipped
mechanism (implemented-RFC rule): why worker threads, the thread's
concrete buys, the in-process node:vm first cut recorded under
alternatives considered; the tool section describes the usage policy
as the tool's own prompt section.
- gen-doc-graphs: six workflow/* DYNAMIC_EVENT_DISPATCHERS entries (the
catalog no longer claims nothing dispatches them) and the seam-note
wording; core-data-structures gains its workflow.md index row;
packages/README + AGENTS.md layout line + example cordis.yml comments
say worker-thread; catalogs regenerated.
The sandbox docs overclaimed a containment contract the design never makes:
"capability access is routed through cordis services, never Node built-ins,
so everything a mounted plugin does stays inspectable and disposable". The
host-realm helpers on the sandbox global (harness, console, btoa) are
reachable functions, so mount code that goes looking can reach the host realm
through one of them — accepted under the trust stance, because the ctx a
mount ultimately receives is fully privileged anyway. Reword the sandbox
module doc, the README trust stance, and the RFC sandbox-semantics section to
say exactly that: the traps and small global surface STEER honest code onto
the cordis services; they are not a security boundary.
The master merge (5309ea54) resolved the module-graph conflict by hand,
placing the subagent-subprocess dependency-table row ahead of util/timeout's;
the generator's deterministic order (group order, util first) wants them
swapped, so the freshness gate (gen-module-graph --check) failed CI's static
job. Regenerated on the merged tree — a two-line swap; every other generated
catalog was already resolution-fresh (regen-all changed nothing else).
Two review findings (#220) on the sandbox context façade:
- Undeclared services were reachable: the façade resolved any live global via
ctx.get(name), so ctx.bash worked without inject: ['bash']. A cross-mount
consumer could then depend on a provider cordis never saw — unmounting the
provider would neither park the consumer nor unwind its registered tools,
leaving a model-visible tool that fails only at execution. The façade now
reads ctx.fiber.inject and refuses any service the mount did not declare
(with a teaching error naming the inject fix), so the dependency is always
visible to cordis and its activation/unload semantics bind.
- ctx.tools.get returned the live ToolDefinition, including execute — mount
code could call another tool directly and bypass ToolRegistry.execute and
its pre/post-execute hooks and accounting. get now returns the same
read-only name/description/parameters view as schemas(), never an invocable.
Adds inject-gate and schema-view regression cases to sandbox-context.spec.ts
(undeclared property/get denied, declared allowed, the cross-mount zombie-tool
scenario refused at call time, get exposes no execute). Package stays at
per-file 100% coverage. RFC, mount description, and tool-catalog updated.
