`dsh` shipped two config trees that were 43 rows the same: apps/cli/cordis.yml
composed web as 74 flat rows, while the TUI booted examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml
whose single `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tui-demo` row mounted twelve plugins behind a
twenty-key pass-through Config. Neither file was what its location claimed —
apps/cli hardcoded the "example" as the product default and the "demo" bundle
was the application — and every capability change had to be made twice.
- apps/cli/base.cordis.yml holds the 43 shared rows; tui.cordis.yml and
web.cordis.yml are patch lists stating only what differs per surface
- overlays apply as SIBLING patch lists at one include level, because include
patches never cross an include boundary. Precedence: base < surface <
(--config | personal ~/.dsh/config.yaml) < launcher flag/profile patches
- `--config` now applies an overlay INSTEAD OF the personal one, so a demo or
test tree never inherits the user's route; new `--config-replace` boots a file
as the entire tree (the old `--config` behaviour). Both survive /resume
- vendor/include: index each `insert`ed row as it is added so a later patch can
configure or disable it. Upstream built the id index once before the patch
loop, leaving every surface-only row — the whole TUI front door — silently
unpatchable from user config. Logged as local modification 8
- session identity moves to dsh-agent-loop's CONFIGURED_AGENT_IDENTITIES_KEY;
dsh-tui's MAIN_SESSION_ID_KEY is deleted (only the bundle read it)
- delete examples/tui-agent, examples/cordis-agent, packages/examples/tui-demo;
TUI tests → apps/cli/tests, cordis e2e → packages/cordis/tool-cordis/tests,
examples/code-mode survives as an overlay leaf
- `dsh web` gains --config, threaded into AppCLIEntry as an extra overlay
Three latent defects surfaced and are fixed here: the TUI captured the optional
sessionQuery service once at construction and could permanently disable /resume
when it won the mount race; the session-store root silently reverted to a
project-local ./.sessions; --config-replace was dropped by the resume handoff.
Verified by booting each tree through the real Loader (TUI 55 entries, web 75,
zero unsettled) rather than reading YAML. All eight terminal snapshots replay
byte-identically; 14/14 PTY smoke, 112/112 snapshots, 25/25 doc-sync, hygiene
and lint clean.
Consolidates the personal dsh-tui customizations (module split into
components/session/extension, prompt template + running-glyph indicator,
copyable transcript, tool-card headers, timing placement, XML tool output,
status/footer rework) and ports upstream's model reasoning-effort selector
(Shift+Tab effort cycling, effort-aware /model, footer, and /status) onto
the personal module layout.
ds-review-bot: `dsh web -p task`, `dsh web --resume s`, and `dsh --config c.yml
web` reached the web action with those values in program.opts() but the action
ignored them and served — silently dropping mode-specific inputs. The web
action now reads the parent opts and fails loud (exit 1) on a leaked
--config/-p/--resume, matching the root mode's mixing guard. Covered in
args.spec.ts.
Also (ds-review-bot): tui-demo/README documented the removed `dsh
[path-to-cordis.yml]` positional form; corrected to bare `dsh` / `dsh --config
<path>`. Agent Note + Chinese pair note the web-leak guard.
Address review and cut ceremony: the adapter no longer models help/version/
errors as DshInvocation members. Commander owns those under exitOverride — it
prints usage or the diagnostic and one try/catch in parseDshArgs turns the
thrown CommanderError into process.exit with the intended code. bin.ts drops its
help/version/error cases; the union is the three real modes.
Domain checks bail via command.error(print + exit 1): --prompt rejects an empty
task or a stray config/--resume, empty --resume= fails loud, and --host/--port
are validated. A repeated --resume or a flag captured as a value is Commander's
standard behavior, left alone (a bad id fails loud downstream). dsh --help
discloses web via addHelpText. Net: args.ts 185 -> 112 lines.
Also fixes review nits: built-bin e2e resolves on `close`; the /resume handoff
uses `dsh --resume=<id> -- <config>` so a config named `web` stays a positional;
and stale prose (cordis.yml comment, app-boot module doc + duplicate JSDoc,
ui/README, two feature notes, an agent-loop test name) tracks the shipped state.
Removes tui-demo's now-dead plugin-include dep and vendor/loader + app-boot
tsconfig references.
Remove the redundant dsh-tui-demo bin and the RESUME_SESSION_ID environment
variable, leaving dsh as the one terminal entrypoint.
The dsh-tui-demo package was a plugin (the TUI app bundle mounted by dsh's
config) plus a bin that booted a leaf cordis.yml — the same job `dsh [config]`
does. The bin, its ./bin export, its built-bin.e2e.ts, the tsdown bin entry,
and the now-unused dsh-app-boot dependency are removed; the package keeps its
plugin and invariant. demo:cordis, demo:code-mode, and the tui-agent and
cordis-agent keyless PTY smokes now launch through apps/cli/src/bin.ts with the
config as the positional argument. cli-demo/acp-demo/jsonrpc-demo keep their
bins (distinct surfaces).
RESUME_SESSION_ID was the only bridge from --resume into the shipped config;
--resume now provides the id on the boot context via ctx.provide(
RESUME_SESSION_ID_KEY, id), and the four configs read it as a bare identifier
through a quoted typeof-guarded !!js expression. The TUI resumeCommand fixtures
and docs move to `dsh --resume {session}`.
Agent Note and its Chinese pair updated; config-catalog regenerated.
The built-bin fail-loud test needs the TTY refusal before Loader boot (a
compose-time throw is logged per-entry, not rethrown); the PTY driver drops
COLORTERM so a developer's truecolor shell cannot flip the banner to the
gradient path mid-assertion; the scripted fixture persists raw JSONL so the
smoke's system-prompt inspection can read the log.
workspace-context's abort-tool test uses agent.cancel({kind:'user'}) (master's
AgentCancelCause shape); tui-demo forwards no welcome when none is configured.
Delete packages/ui/stdio and examples/repl-agent; rename stdio-demo to
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tui-demo (TUI-only, refuses pipes before Loader boot).
tui-agent owns the coding composition inline; echo-agent and the CI demo
smoke move to the one-shot cli-demo bin, which gains -p/--prompt. The
UI-independent with-key e2es move verbatim to tui-agent. SDK wizard's
'stdio' interface becomes 'tui'. PTY testing stays confined to TUI
surfaces; all other subprocess tests ride pipes.
