- Wire the control service and send_message tool into every shipped
composition with a resumable provider and background enabled
(headless-agent, tui-agent, and the SDK helper's subagent feature
base resources); jsonrpc-agent disables background and is unchanged.
- Resolve the send_message availability check in the CALLER's tool
scope so a restriction that removes the follow-up tool from one
agent also blocks that agent's continuable start.
- Control-service disposal now cancels live activations and awaits
producer settlement instead of stranding them: TaskService keeps
producer Tasks across a reload, so the disposing service aborts each
activation-owned controller, resolves its terminal gate (the
effect-scoped onTaskDone listener is already gone), and awaits done.
A new test kills a mid-start activation through HMR disposal.
- Strict steer now rejects the two windows where an acknowledged
message would be silently dropped: the closed-turn durability-flush
window (status still running, loop strands drained steering) and a
committed structured capture (terminal turn-stop discards late
steering). Seam JSDoc, catalog doc, README, and the Agent Note
bilingual pair state the tightened contract; new keyless tests pin
both rejections.
- Continuable background delegation now fails loud when the advertised
send_message tool is not registered, instead of starting a durable
child the model cannot continue. The acp-agent example already loads
the control tool; the tool-catalog boot recipe is unaffected because
capability wording is harvested at mount.
Implement the continuable background subagents RFC: a durable child
session with a series of Task-backed activations, each disposing its
run before the Task settles.
- dsh-subagent: rename SubagentRun.sendMessage to strict steer, drop
run-level resume, add SubagentProvider.resume dispatch via
SubagentService.resume, the continuation start field, and the
versioned model-hidden subagent/descriptor session event.
- dsh-subagent-inprocess/-spawn/-fork: publish the control-allocated
child id, append the descriptor inside the initial turn, implement
cold resume from the child's own transcript under the live parent
scope, and strict running-only steer.
- dsh-subagent-control (new): SubagentControlService owning stable
child ids, descriptor snapshot/fold/authorization, Task-backed
activation with settle-then-dispose ordering, the process-local
active-run association, and steer-or-resume sendMessage routing.
- dsh-tool-subagent: background route branches on the provider's
resume capability (continuable via the control service; one-shot
task for ACP), returning both child and task ids.
- dsh-tool-subagent-control (new): the globally named send_message
tool rendering steered/started routes.
Keyless coverage spans Task ownership and disposal ordering, running
delivery, cold follow-up, descriptor rejection and rollback, known-id
reconstruction, kill during lookup, admission races, and a new
subagent-continuable ACP snapshot scenario.
A plugin owning a standalone open/close bracket cannot tell a dead marker
from a live one: an unmatched `compact/start` reads identically whether the
previous writer died mid-compaction or a compaction is running now.
`Session.firstLiveSeq` already holds that answer exactly, but only in memory.
Append the log-only `session/inherited` event at that seq from the seeded
constructor — the single waist all six seeded-start paths pass through
(resume, configured startup on a persisted id, `sessions.fork()`, a subagent
fork child, `adopt()`'s live prefix, and a bare seeded `create`). Read it
through the new `isInheritedSeq(events, seq)`.
The constructor placement means persistence needs no changes: the marker is
already in `events` when a backend captures the creation seed, so it rides
the ordinary seed path with no load-time write. It also covers fork, where
the inherited bracket's owner may still be running — the case a
persistence-layer boundary could not reach.
Activity ordering excludes the boundary through `lastActivityTime()`, since
lazy resume makes browsing a pickup and the three call sites would otherwise
float every opened session to the top of a picker or list.
The native adapter's route was named deepseek, colliding with pi-ai's
catalog provider of the same name, so the two DeepSeek paths could never
be mounted side by side. The web settings page needs both configurable at
once. Compositions, fixtures, goldens, scaffolding defaults, and docs all
move together (pre-release, no shim); TUI/session-query-spill/
missing-credential goldens re-recorded through their keyless refresh
modes because provider-name length shifts box padding and spill
truncation points.
Inherited sandbox and approval events were part of the constructor seed. Session.firstLiveSeq classifies every constructor event as replayed history, so telemetry adoption skipped these child-only creation facts even though no parent or prior process had exported them.
Capture the parent overrides at the same synchronous delegation boundary, but append the events during the child factory setup while the session is still unpublished. They remain ordered after fork history, persist with the first child batch, and retain last-event-wins behavior while landing on the live side of the telemetry boundary. This uses the existing setup and session append contracts instead of adding another seed category or telemetry special case.
Add regression coverage for exporting an unpublished suffix without re-exporting constructor history, assert the spawn and fork firstLiveSeq boundaries, and restore the public seed documentation to replay/fork history only.
The implementation no longer stores inherited policy in SessionHeader or resolves a second baseline chain, but the feature, sandbox, and approval notes still described that machinery. Keeping those claims would make the smaller design look incomplete and invite reintroduction of the generic persistence surface.
Rewrite the owning feature note around the actual delegation snapshot: source-tagged policy events follow the optional fork prefix, ordinary last-event-wins folds establish precedence, and persistence captures the constructor seed with the first materialized batch. Condense the alternatives and consequences to the decisions and coverage that remain load-bearing.
Align the sandbox and approval notes plus the subagent-inprocess consumer README with that contract. Update the four Chinese counterparts minimally and re-record each pairing hash so both languages describe the same shipped mechanism.
The parent implementation introduced sandboxMode and approvalPolicy as generic SessionHeader fields, then propagated those fields through both persistence backends, session-query indexes, collision checks, policy-specific seed-boundary folds, catalogs, and a broad test matrix. That storage plane is unnecessary: Session already accepts a validated constructor seed, and persistence captures that seed when the session is announced before committing its first batch.
Capture each parent override synchronously at delegation, append source-tagged sandbox/mode and approval/policy records after the optional fork prefix, and create the child with that combined seed. Keeping header.seedLength at the original fork-prefix length preserves lineage while ordinary last-event-wins folds make the inherited records outrank stale parent history and remain subordinate to later child switches. Unswitched parents still stamp nothing, so children continue to follow deployment defaults.
Remove the generic header fields and every persistence/query/schema branch built around them. Collapse the inheritance suite from ten leaking scenarios to four owned-context cases covering real filesystem confinement, stale fork precedence, delegation-time capture, and the no-override path. The assembled headless snapshot now asserts the persisted inheritance event directly.
This keeps the security behavior while restoring policy ownership to the existing event log and deleting the speculative durability machinery that the original tests did not exercise.
Retarget the feature branch to the current master tip without rewriting its existing review history. Keeping this as a dedicated merge checkpoint makes the later simplification diff attributable to the stacked child rather than mixing base movement with design changes.
Resolve the identified-message API drift in the feature tests by constructing complete user messages, reading the nested tool-result message shape, and adapting the prompt-submit listener signature. Preserve both sides of the user-approval conflict: master’s createUserMessage wrapper and the feature’s inherited-policy attribution.
Regenerate the Cordis and persistence catalogs, re-record the session README pair, and refresh the affected ACP/headless fixtures so derived artifacts describe the merged source rather than either parent in isolation.
Validated with the focused policy/session/persistence/query suites (430 tests), focused ACP/headless snapshots (3 tests), build, doc-sync (25 gates), lint, hygiene, and git diff checks.
The group's convention is package suffix == provider default
(subagent-acp/'acp', subagent-spawn/'spawn', subagent-fork/'fork'), and the
provider default became dsh-sdk in the last review round — so the package
follows: @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-dsh-sdk at
packages/subagent/subagent-dsh-sdk, plugin name subagent-dsh-sdk,
diagnostics prefixed subagent-dsh-sdk:. The dsh echo has precedent
(dsh-llm-deepseek). Directory, fixture path, knip/tsconfig/examples
registrations, catalogs, READMEs (en+zh), and the Agent Note follow; the
sdk-client dispose ladder moves to its own module (src/dispose.ts) with the
deterministic FakeChild tier tests restored alongside it.
Master's #660 replaced dsh-subagent-subprocess with the dsh-subprocess
capability seam (ctx.subprocess + scrubbedParentEnv, tree-scoped teardown)
and moved subagent-acp onto it. Convergence for this branch's packages:
- The shared out-of-process provider vocabulary this branch had grown in
the deleted library (NO_START_CAPABILITIES, assertPositiveFinite, cwd
resolution, settleRunResult, subprocessRunHandle) moves into the subagent
seam package as out-of-process.ts — it enforces subagent-seam contracts,
not process mechanics, and both out-of-process backends now import it
from there (subagent-acp keeps master's shape otherwise).
- subagent-sdk spawns THROUGH the SDK client (the subprocess README's
documented exception for SDK-managed transports) and now applies the
seam's scrubbedParentEnv() + explicit-env merge in place of the deleted
buildChildEnv.
- sdk-client inlines the EOF→SIGTERM→SIGKILL ladder as private helpers (it
runs outside any harness context, so it cannot ride ctx.subprocess).
- The child harness fixture gains the now-required dsh-subprocess-local
entry for bash-local; the fixture cordis.yml keeps exercising the
shipped provider default.
- subagent-sdk: the default registry name becomes `dsh-sdk` (the bare
`sdk` read ambiguously in configs); READMEs, config catalog, fixture,
and suites follow. The Loader fixture now omits providerName to exercise
the shipped default end to end.
- loader-composition.e2e: two full harness runtimes boot in sequence, so
the default 30s loader-smoke window times out under host load; raise the
subprocess deadline to 120s with matching vitest headroom (the
real-model.e2e precedent).
The aborted-mid-stream case raced the abort against the child's chunk
delivery across two pipes and lost under full-suite load. Replace it with a
same-pipe ordering probe: the fake streams one text-delta chunk and then
answers the prompt with a malformed (non-accepted) result, so frame order
guarantees the chunk precedes the failure — the accumulated partial text
must survive into the error result. Same code path (collectOutput without a
complete assistant/message), no timing window.
The duplication gate flagged three ACP/SDK clones; the shared halves move
into dsh-subagent-subprocess as provider.ts: NO_START_CAPABILITIES (frozen
all-false advertisement), assertPositiveFinite (prefix-parameterized timing
validation), settleRunResult (never-reject result settlement with contained
onError sink and listener hygiene), and subprocessRunHandle (idempotent
dispose publication). Both backends now compose these; the previously
unreachable cancelled-rejection branch is directly unit-tested at the
library level instead of v8-ignored in each backend. knip learns the
subagent-sdk workspace (e2e entry outside vitest unit includes).
- examples/jsonrpc-agent gains its first snapshot suite (sdk.snapshot.ts):
the real dsh-jsonrpc-agent runtime driven through the real dsh-sdk-client,
keyless llm-replay behind a new cordis.snapshot.yml overlay; three recorded
scenarios (text turn, bash tool, spawn subagent) pin the notification
stream, the SDK turn result, and the persisted parent+child session logs.
- Bilingual READMEs for dsh-sdk-protocol / dsh-sdk-client / dsh-subagent-sdk;
sdk/ and subagent/ group tables extended; dsh-jsonrpc README points at the
extracted protocol package; Agent Note (en+zh) owns the decision.
- The proposed make-jsonrpc-directional note is updated for the transport's
new home and its second (client) consumer.
- Model Experience sentence allowlist entries for the two client-side
packages; module graph + config catalog regenerated; i18n pairings
recorded. doc-sync passes 24/24.
Drop SubprocessSpawnSpec.dshEnv and splitEnvChannels(); childEnv() is now
scrubbed-base + explicit entries with no namespace validation. The invariant
dropped is the reserved-namespace check on explicit entries (DSH_* rejected
from env, non-DSH_* rejected from dshEnv). Explicit-entry trust already
covers it: an explicit credential-shaped entry has always merged after the
scrub as a deliberate caller opt-in, and an explicit DSH_* entry is the same
deliberate act — the staleness invariant lives entirely in scrubbedParentEnv
dropping AMBIENT credential-shaped and DSH_* names, which stays. The
validation's only observed effect was rejecting legitimate explicit entries:
both recent CI breakages (DSH_GATE_CONCURRENCY exported into every job
crashing lsp specs, DSH_PERMISSION_MODE in acp config.env crashing the
child spawn) were this check firing on values a caller meant to pass, each
fixed by routing around the bureaucracy the seam itself imposed.
The bash seam keeps its own request/spec dshEnv field: that is bash-owned
trusted-plugin vocabulary (the ctx.bashEnv collected overlay) whose merge-last
position guarantees a caller env entry cannot displace a managed fact;
bash-local now flattens ENV_OVERRIDES -> spec.env -> spec.dshEnv into the
seam's one env map. subagent-acp and lsp-local pass their single config env
map straight through. DshEnvironment/DshEnvironmentKey/DSH_ENV_PREFIX stay on
the subprocess seam as the namespace vocabulary (bash re-exports them;
scrubbedParentEnv filters on the prefix).
Tests: the two channel-rejection specs and the splitEnvChannels partition
spec are deleted; one spawn spec now proves an explicit DSH_* env entry
reaches the child while an ambient one is scrubbed; the acp/lsp forwarding
specs keep their MOCK_ECHO_ENV / LSP_FAKE_ECHO_ENV assertions with the split
comments rewritten to merge-after-scrub. Docs (en+zh, re-recorded) and the
owning Agent Notes updated; cordis api/services catalogs regenerated.
A test-only cordis.yml under examples/jsonrpc-agent boots the headless app
through the Loader; a scripted model delegates once to the SDK backend, whose
child is a COMPLETE second harness runtime (own cordis.yml, jsonrpc serving
surface, scripted cwd-echo model, own JSONL persistence). Asserts the parent
tool result AND the child's own persisted transcript both carry the parent
session's workspace cwd; child launch resolves through the shared
example-launch resolver so src/lib modes both hold.
