Everything outside the package and example that a new top-level group and a
new demo touch: GROUP_ORDER in gen-module-graph and gen-doc-graphs (plus the
tools-service consumers list, the APP_EXAMPLES entry, and the graph-atlas
label/mode rows), the knip e2e entries, the packages/README group row, the
AGENTS.md layout and demo lines, and the regenerated module-graph /
config-catalog / graph-atlas / capability-seams / composition artifacts.
AGENTS.md and examples/AGENTS.md word-budget ceilings rise to current+5%
(1802 / 653): the new group and demo rows are genuine additions to both docs,
not condensable restatements.
The shipped backend of the code-execution seam, per the Code Mode RFC's
worker-thread section: one fresh Node worker per run, executing the
model's TypeScript after a host-side type-strip (wrapped in an
async-function shell so top-level return/await parse, sliced back out
position-preserved), bindings bridged over the message port under
hostile-peer rules (own-property name lookup, at-most-once replies,
post-settlement drops, null-prototype namespaces), logs streamed eagerly
with an in-band truncation marker, and two independent budgets — measured
event-loop busy time (computeMs) plus a never-pausing wall ceiling
(maxWallMs) — funneling into worker.terminate(). env: {} and execArgv: []
keep the isolate hermetic; disposal aborts in-flight runs and awaits
worker exits.
The worker entry loads unbuilt via Node's native type stripping
(src/worker.ts, erasable-only) and ships built as a sibling tsdown bundle
(lib/worker.js); tests/built-lib.e2e.ts pins the built load path under
plain node and joins the built-artifact smoke gate. Unit suites cover the
bootstrap in-process (fake port) and the runtime over real workers,
per-file 100%.
Review follow-up (#196): a listed name with no registered tool was silently
ignored; misconfiguration must block work instead. The check lives in the
assembly — the earliest moment the registered tool set exists (tool plugins
register after the service constructs) and the only universal one (cordis has
no "all plugins loaded" event; registrations change at any time). assemble()
is now async so the throw surfaces as a rejection rather than a synchronous
escape from a Promise-returning method.
Blast radius, pinned by a loop-level test: the rejection reaches the turn's
outer catch — the turn closes balanced with an `error` reason, agent/error
mirrors it, no step opens, no request/header is logged, no request reaches
the adapter, and the agent returns to idle; every turn fails identically
until the config is fixed. A boot-time validation pass was considered and
rejected (recorded in the RFC). The general principle — misconfiguration
fails loud, never a silent skip — is added to AGENTS.md.
- run-gates.ts docSyncLeafGates() gains verify-export-jsdoc — CI lanes
and the pre-push hook execute this leaf list, not the doc-sync npm
script, so the gate was previously unenforced there (proven by
SessionForkErrorCode landing undocumented via a master merge while
checks stayed green; now documented). Same wiring gap fixed for
master's verify-config-catalog, which was also missing from the list.
- The heritage exemption now recovers the base's return surface: a void
base return carried no @returns duty, so an override returning a
concrete result documents it itself (annotated overrides run the
standard check; unannotated ones are classified by the checker so
faithful void overrides need no boilerplate annotation). Three new
negative-path tests pin it; RFC and module doc updated.
- AGENTS.md states each principle inline instead of citing RFCs (eight
citations removed; high-level doc links kept) and the editing section
now carries the self-containedness rule.
- Generated catalogs/graphs regenerated for the shifted line pointers.
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.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-06-export-surface-jsdoc-gate.md
The reconstructability RFC is the principle's home: model-visible ⟺
logged in both forms, the mechanism (boundary derivation + header
fold), the enforcement (write-time round-trip guard, the dev
invariant), the corollaries ranked (prefix-cache stability first), the
MiniCode lineage with the provenance arrow inverted, and the
alternatives it beat — including the stateful transmission client
whose three-design archaeology lives in PR #162.
Placements per the one-home-per-fact taxonomy: a standing-order line in
root AGENTS.md (with displacement trims to stay inside the 1,575-word
ceiling), the principle statement in architecture.md § Session Log and
its Turn Flow lines (condensed to the ratcheted 1,630 ceiling), the
request-envelope section in core-data-structures/core.md with the
LlmCallConfig paste, both review-requested FIXMEs
(FIXME(call-config-shape) beside the type, FIXME(catalog-verbs) at the
catalog's drift-gate note), cookbook rows redirected off agent/request
(tool filtering → system-prompt/assemble, plan-mode prompt → sections/
inject()), and the llm/stream JSDoc stating the frozen-request
contract. RFC index and all generated catalogs regenerated.
The repo's docs are read by people and agents without access to the
company wiki, so external Feishu links are dead weight: the two design-doc
links (MVP requirements, microkernel implementation notes) leave
AGENTS.md's intro and docs/architecture.md (usages + link definitions),
and the microkernel-event-taxonomy RFC drops its plain-text pointer to the
same design doc. The governing principle each reference decorated is
already stated in place; no content moves.
Master split the cordis catalog (d55d4120) while this branch was in review.
Resolution: keep this branch's Service map restructure, adopt master's split
catalog link targets (events.md / services.md), and regenerate the catalog so
the waterfall-semantics anchor fix lands in the split output.
The Layering ASCII diagram was cluttered, lumped THE concrete loop plugin
undifferentiated into a grab-bag plugins box, omitted dsh-agent-core and the
app packages, and restated the dependency rule that packages/README.md
already owns — while being the first thing a reader linked from README hits.
- Drop the Layering section; the tier story becomes one intro sentence and
the dependency rule a one-line Service map footer linking
packages/README.md#dependencies.
- Split the Service map into the spine (packages/core/) vs the swappable
capability seams; annotate ctx.agentLoop as THE concrete loop plugin.
- Promote Cordis waterfall semantics to a top-level section placed before
first waterfall use; drop '(important)' from the heading (anchor swept:
AGENTS.md, gen-cordis-catalog.ts + regenerated catalog).
- Promote Event taxonomy to a top-level section (anchor unchanged).
- Retitle 'The vocabulary (dsh-llm)' to 'Content blocks and streaming
(dsh-llm)' so the heading names its content (citation swept:
llm-streaming.md).
Net -29 words (1851 -> 1822); the 1890 ceiling stands, keeping the
manifest's working margin.
gen-cordis-catalog.ts now emits docs/cordis-catalog/events.md and
docs/cordis-catalog/services.md instead of the combined
events-and-services.md: a reader is either finding what to listen to or
what to call, and each axis now scans and deep-links as its own page.
Headings promote one level (scopes and ctx.<key> entries become H2), the
dispatch-mode legend lives on the events page, and the inherited tier
splits accordingly. --check verifies both files and names whichever is
stale.
Every reference updated in the same change (no compat redirects,
pre-release stance): architecture.md, AGENTS.md, docs/AGENTS.md tier row,
filesystem/subagent core-data-structures pages (the ctx.fs anchor
survives — slugs are heading-level-independent), fs README, four RFCs,
the tool-catalog and persistence-catalog generator intros (both
regenerated), and the bilingual development.md pair (re-recorded).
gen-cordis-catalog now hard-errors (aggregated, not fail-fast) when an
event lacks description prose or a payload @param, or a public service
method lacks JSDoc, a @param per parameter, a @returns on a non-void
result, or an explicit return type annotation. The this receiver and the
trailing waterfall next are exempt on events (mode machinery owned by
@mode); a stale @param naming no real parameter errors, mirroring the
@mode contradiction check. parseJsDoc now ends prose at the first block
tag (standard JSDoc semantics), so the tags never change the rendered
catalog — only Source: line pointers moved.
Fills the ~139 gaps found across the 15 surface files, extends the spec
with negative-path fixtures for every new guard plus the exemptions,
records the decision as an implemented process RFC, and extends the
AGENTS.md typed-events bullet with the authoring rule. Runs inside
verify-cordis-catalog -> doc-sync, so CI and pre-push enforce it with
zero new wiring.
Master's docs-overhaul stack (#142-#144) rewrote AGENTS.md into the
slim budget-gated form and repointed the review skill's citations.
Resolutions:
- AGENTS.md: master's rewrite wins; the no-hardcoded-tunables
convention is re-added as one terse bullet in the new style, after
'Explicit > implicit at package seams'. Within the verify-doc-budgets
ceiling, so no displacement or raise needed.
- dsh-code-review SKILL.md: master's repointed citations win; the
hardcoded-tunables reviewer check and the Conventions keyword are
re-applied on top.
- packages/README.md: master replaced the hand-maintained dependency
list (which carried this branch's chars-per-token wording) with a
pointer to the generated module graph — master's side taken whole;
the estimator wording lives on in the compact package READMEs.
A number or string that two reasonable deployments could want set
differently — a timeout, grace period, output cap, result-count limit,
model name, base URL — belongs on the plugin's schemastery Config with
the shipped value as its default, not in a bare literal or module
constant. A DEFAULT_* constant or a test-only injection seam is not
configurability: the test is whether a cordis.yml deployment can change
the value without a code edit. Protocol/wire constants, semantic
constants, values pinned by an external spec, and security invariants
stay hardcoded.
The convention lands in AGENTS.md § Conventions (the authoritative
source the review skill cites); dsh-code-review gains the matching
reviewer-only check, since no mechanical gate can detect a hardcoded
tunable.
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).
- 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.
docs/rfc/README.md's per-lifecycle tables are now generated between
gen-rfc-index marker comments from each RFC's path (lifecycle/class),
H1 title (optional 'RFC: ' prefix stripped), and filename date, sorted
by date then filename — the one docs region every proposal wave edits
and every concurrent branch conflicts on becomes derived state.
scripts/rfc-index.ts owns the shared walker (closed lifecycle/class
sets, structure rules, parseable-H1 requirement) and the renderer;
gen-rfc-index.ts is the writer CLI; verify-rfc-classification.ts keeps
the structure check and asserts the committed regions byte-match a
fresh render (freshness subsumes the index-completeness check, since a
generated-from-disk table is definitionally complete and correctly
headed). A malformed H1 is a hard error in both directions, so the H1
is now load-bearing as the title source — the one nonconforming H1
(a status suffix duplicating the path) is normalized.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-04-generate-rfc-index-tables.md
(moved from proposed/ and amended to the shipped mechanics); the
classification RFC's verify-only stance carries the supersession
cross-link per implemented/AGENTS.md.
Applies the documentation standard to its biggest offender. Every rule
survives as one to three lines plus a link to its durable home; the
stories, duplicate statements, and re-narrations go:
- Situational clusters evict to new homes: docs/testing.md (tiers,
with-key policy, real-over-mock, world-verification, real-entry-path
guards), docs/defensive-patterns.md (the bug-class rules), and
docs/cookbook/responding-to-pr-review-on-a-stack.md (the stacked-PR
review procedure).
- Doc-authoring rules consolidate into docs/AGENTS.md § Writing rules
(current-state-never-history, md-wrap, ts-block compilation, @mode,
catalog same-change, pair same-change).
- packages/README.md drops to the group table + the extension-vs-bundle
dependency rule; the hand ASCII graph yields to the generated
module-graph.md; group READMEs are the canonical per-package map.
- packages/AGENTS.md keeps only its packages-specific rules (export
shape, ctx.get, real-Loader coverage); examples/AGENTS.md repoints
its with-key-policy link; rfc/README.md loses a narrated-history
aside; dsh-code-review / dsh-find-simplifications / verify-md-wrap
references follow the moved content.
- Budget manifest ratchets: AGENTS.md 8200 -> 1500 (now 1,495 words),
packages/README.md 1900 -> 600, packages/AGENTS.md 600 -> 450; the
two new eviction docs join the budget set (testing 800, defensive
550); docs/AGENTS.md raises 1000 -> 1250 for the absorbed writing
rules (the one justified increase). The doc-tiers RFC's deferred list
prunes the two items this change ships.
The bulleted lessons and the two Defensive-patterns traps did not earn their
place. Reduce the new section to its one load-bearing sentence — gates prove
lines ran, not semantics/doc-accuracy/that a test guards anything; layer
judgment on top and lean on an independent reviewer for what gates can't see —
and drop the spawn-narrowing and AgentLoop.create-meta bullets entirely.
Address ds-review-bot review on #131:
- Blocking: "Both are synchronous" was wrong for `resume`
(`ctx.agents.resume`/`AgentLoop.resume` return `Promise<AgentHandle>` and
await the persisted load). State the true split: `create` is synchronous,
`resume` is async.
- De-anchor the section: drop the "#118–#129" opening and every hooks-stack
reference (agent/stream-chunk, PR-G, #118, ENOSPC-from-worktrees) so the
lessons stand alone for a reader who wasn't there, matching the generalized
style of the "Orchestrating review feedback" section above it.
- Cut bullets that duplicated existing AGENTS.md content: the standalone
"prove regression tests RED" bullet (already stated in the Orchestrating
section and Defensive patterns) and the ENOSPC "environmental ≠ code" bullet
(no repo-specific rule survives generalizing).
- Generalize the survivors to their transferable rule; trim the
regenerate-artifact bullet to the one gate-backed example.
- Collapse the double blank line before ## Architecture.
