effective(session) = findLast(the session own knob events)?.value ?? the
composition-config default. One log-only event per knob, owned by its
domain (bash/sandbox-mode in dsh-bash, approval/policy in dsh-approval),
each exporting the same three-piece kit: the event declaration, a pure
fold, and THE write path — a switch IS its event; no owner service, no
facts map. Restart immunity and multi-session isolation fall out of the
log replay by construction.
Execution follows the fold on both sides: the bash tool stamps
escalation grant > session override > executor default, and the approval
seam prepends the never-gate that auto-rejects before any interactive
answerer. Visibility is two layers per knob: a per-agent prompt section
states the effective value on every request (logged through
request/header*, so what-the-model-was-told replays from the log), and an
agent/pre-step narrator injects at most one coalesced delta notice with
positional attribution (user switch vs operator/config drift). The ACP
bridge advertises one capability-gated select per composable knob with
currentValue folded per session, validates set_config_option against the
closed vocabularies, and anchors idle switches at the next turn
prompt-submit under the turn-enclosure contract.
dsh-bash grows the per-call policy carrier: BashExecRequest.sandboxMode
(request-optional, spec required-but-nullable — the owner pattern; resolve()
is the one explicit defaulting step) and the BashExecutor.sandboxMode
capability fact (undefined in the base class — composition truth the tool
layer can read). dsh-bash-local carries the field verbatim and confines
nothing.
dsh-bash-sandbox extends LocalBashExecutor and hands ctx.sandbox the exact
argv it is about to spawn. A denial is a RESULT FACT (the command RAN;
result.sandbox.denied is orthogonal to exitCode/signal), classified
conservatively against the wrap own dialect; a RUNNER failure outranks
denial — foreground re-throws the structured SANDBOX_UNAVAILABLE, a settled
background task stamps sandbox.runnerFailed — so a broken sandbox never
reads as a failing command and the command never runs unconfined.
dsh-tool-bash renders the markers and teaches the model not to retry around
a policy denial; escalation and per-session switching are staged follow-ups.
ctx.sandbox (dsh-sandbox): confine(argv, policy) returns the argv to spawn
instead — wrapped so the process and its children run confined — plus the
enforcement completeness and the backend denial/runner-failure dialects;
no usable backend throws the fail-closed SANDBOX_UNAVAILABLE. Policy rides
per call. dsh-sandbox-local selects by platform and caches the verdict:
multi-candidate chains probe FUNCTIONALLY in preference order (Linux:
bwrap → the registry-installed node-addon-landlock-run launcher), a sole
candidate is selected unprobed (darwin: sandbox-exec/Seatbelt) and fails
closed at execution via runnerFailureSignatures; win32 is a reserved empty
chain. Profile parity is honest per backend (documented temp-area and ABI
differences; enforcement full|partial is a structured result fact).
CI: the sandbox-e2e matrix proves real-kernel confinement per rung (bwrap,
Landlock per architecture through the registry-installed launcher,
Seatbelt), failing on a silent all-skip; the packed-install rehearsal
installs the launcher family from the registry and asserts the binary
executable apart from kernel enforcement.
The ACP bridge registers the first real approval answerer: an ask for an
agent it owns becomes session/request_permission attached to the already-
streamed tool call (one-shot allow_once/reject_once only), outcomes map
conservatively (unknown optionId never grants, client cancel → cancelled),
and foreign or call-less requests delegate down the waterfall. The snapshot
harness accepts scripted permissionAnswers (FIFO; an unscripted prompt
answers cancelled, fail closed) so recorded scenarios can drive the wire
keylessly.
ctx.approval (dsh-approval): request() dispatches the approval/request
waterfall and always resolves a closed outcome — allowed-once / rejected /
cancelled / unavailable — never rejects; zero listeners fall through to
fail-closed unavailable; abort settles cancelled and discards late answers;
throwing or rogue answerers are contained as unavailable; every ask lands
the log-only approval/asked / approval/decided audit pair. dsh-tools routes
a pre-execute ask through the seam opportunistically (ctx.get) with three
distinct deny reasons, keeping the historical ask→deny degrade when the
seam is absent.
The per-session policy tier, the ACP bridge answerer, and the sandbox
escalation asker are staged follow-ups of the approval-seam RFC.
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 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).
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 extracted library's name sat one edit away from @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-inprocess
(process/inprocess), inviting a typo'd import to silently resolve to the wrong
package. subagent-subprocess also reads as the deliberate counterpart to
subagent-inprocess (in-process vs. subprocess), matching how the two shared
drivers actually differ.
Package directory, npm name, module doc, JSDoc module tags, test-file name and
its temp-dir prefixes, the subagent-acp import and its Config/tsconfig/package.json
references, root tsconfig.json/tsconfig.build.json/knip.json entries, and the
packages/subagent group README all renamed together; regenerated
docs/module-graph.md and docs/config-catalog.md. Pure rename — no behavior,
export, or Config shape changed.
The credential env scrub (SENSITIVE_ENV_PATTERN/buildChildEnv), the
spawn-failure capture (spawnFailure), the child-exit waits
(waitForExit/exitsWithin), and the stdin-EOF -> SIGTERM -> SIGKILL dispose
ladder move out of subagent-acp into a new pure library package (the
subagent-inprocess shape), with the ladder taking its two grace periods as
parameters — defaults stay in the plugin Config. New isolated-config-dir
helpers (mkdtemp create, best-effort remove; a pinned dir is never removed)
land alongside for the CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR / CODEX_HOME redirection the RFC
names.
The ACP backend migrates onto the library with no semantic change: its suite
passes with import-path edits only. bash-local keeps its sibling copy, per
the RFC's blast-radius call.
RFC: docs/rfc/proposed/feature/2026-07-07-claude-code-and-codex-subagent-backends.md
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%.
Model-facing tool-call budgets were tangled into each capability's schema
(bash timeoutMs, web_fetch timeout_ms) with no shared home. Add a
tools/execute around-dispatch waterfall to dsh-tools whose base next() is
the dispatch-with-normalization thunk, and a new @deepseek-ai/dsh-timeout-policy
plugin (packages/timeout/) that arms a per-tool deadline on exec.signal and
returns a structured TOOL_TIMEOUT when it wins. Migrate web_fetch (drop the
model-facing timeout_ms) and web_search onto it; the fetch provider keeps its
timeout only as a resource backstop for direct callers. bash and hook command
execution keep BASH_TIMEOUT unchanged.
Named the plugin timeout-policy (not the RFC's tool-timeout) so it does not
trip the gen-tool-catalog packages/*/tool-* completeness guard, and replace
exec.signal by in-place mutation before next() since cordis waterfall next()
ignores passed arguments. RFC moved to implemented/ recording both deviations.
The snapshot tier's machinery leaves examples/acp-agent/tests for
packages/support/acp-snapshot (@deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-snapshot), where the
coverage gate measures it and a second example can consume it instead of
forking it: harness.ts (runScenario, parameterized by an AgentUnderTest
{binScript, configPath, tsconfigPath} instead of module constants),
normalize.ts (moved verbatim), and suite.ts (defineAcpSnapshotSuite — the
per-scenario golden/log compares, record write-back, per-suite header pin
with its uniformity guard, and the fixture guard block, lifted from
acp.snapshot.ts). The example file collapses to its scenario table plus
one factory call; env reading (DSH_SNAPSHOT) stays at that edge.
The exactly-one-pin meta-test generalizes from the hardcoded text-turn
name to "exactly one per suite" — which scenario pins is the scenario
table's reviewable choice (per-suite pinning per the proposal RFC).
Extraction parity: pnpm run test:snapshot is 36 passed + fs-policy-reject
failing BEFORE AND AFTER (BSD-sed environment failure, reproduced at the
base commit in a clean worktree — the recorded golden's sed -i syntax is
GNU-only), with zero byte changes under examples/acp-agent/tests/snapshots/.
Coverage for the new src files lands in the next commit.
New group packages/code-runtime/ with the interface package
@deepseek-ai/dsh-code-runtime, per the Code Mode RFC: abstract CodeRuntime
service (run() resolves program failures as an error field, rejects only
for seam misuse), the CodeRunRequest/CodeBindingNamespace/CodeRunResult/
CodeLogEntry/CodeRunFailure vocabulary, and readonly language/isolation
backend descriptors. Registered in the tsconfig maps, packages/README,
architecture service map, and the doc-graph service-role classification;
catalogs regenerated.
The RFC's one forward path token to the worker package becomes an npm-name
mention until PR3 creates that directory (verify-package-paths is
drift-scoped: the now-existing group made the token checkable).
docs/architecture.md ceiling 1630 -> 1640: the doc gained a genuinely new
capability-service row; the row itself is already minimal.
Carved out of #170 per review feedback — the foundation the workflow tool
builds on, now standing alone on master:
- dsh-tools: the structured-output JSON Schema subset (StructuredOutputSchema,
assertSupportedOutputSchema, validateStructuredValue) — rejects loud outside
the enforced subset, listing every violation
- dsh-subagent: SubagentStartRequest.outputSchema / SubagentResult.structured
become a real capability; the service rejects a schema'd request whose
provider lacks it
- dsh-subagent-inprocess: the shared structured runtime — one global
structured_output capture tool, a prepend final-assembly listener that
strips the placeholder for plain agents and swaps in the run's own schema
(plus the calling instruction as a trailing section) for structured
children, an agent/turn-continuation veto once captured, and the
capture/nudge loop in the run driver (structuredNudgeRetries, cancellation
honored mid-nudge); lifetime refcounted by backends and live runs
- subagent-spawn / subagent-fork flip outputSchema: true
One deliberate divergence from the #170 revision: the backends do NOT add
'tools' to their plugin inject. Doing so deferred their apply past the todo
plugin, and the delegation tool mirrors provider lifecycle — so the
model-visible tool order of every existing prompt changed, invalidating every
recorded snapshot fixture. The runtime now gates its capture-tool registration
on tools availability itself (sync when live, a scoped inject fiber when the
Loader starts the backend first), keeping this PR byte-invisible to existing
transcripts: all 35 snapshot scenarios pass against master's fixtures
unchanged.
Master's reconstructable-requests overhaul (#179) meets the workflow tool:
- subagent-inprocess structured-output nudge becomes a system-prompt section
plus logged context (the injected-request waterfall shape is gone upstream)
- snapshot fixtures re-recorded on the merged tree so every request/header
carries the workflow tool; authored error-finish/cancel headers patched to
the merged tool list and system text
- architecture.md condensed back under its word ceiling; module graph regenerated
Timeout timing/classification was re-implemented three ways across the
tool-bearing capabilities, with the fusion of timeout+cancel and the
timeout-vs-cancel reason recovery being the error-prone parts. Extract that
shared half into a zero-dependency @deepseek-ai/dsh-timeout library
(clampTimeout/deadline/timeoutOf/TimeoutReason) and leave the non-shareable
hard-kill in each capability, per the timeout-library RFC.
bash: run() owns the deadline; runBash drops its killTimer and no longer
classifies (SpawnSpec/SpawnOutcome lose timeoutMs/timedOut/aborted), so the
public timedOut/aborted booleans become mutually-exclusive first-abort
classifications. web_fetch: the hand-rolled controller/timer/listener/
signal.reason dance is replaced by provider-owned deadline/timeoutOf, keeping
the WEB_FETCH_TIMEOUT / WEB_ABORTED contract. fs stays timeout-free (README
states why).
