The browse interaction also presents a dialog (the in-app modal), so 'dialog'
failed to discriminate the two capability kinds; 'native' names where the
chooser runs. Package directory-picker-dialog -> directory-picker-native, kind
'dialog' -> 'native', with every seam/gateway/client/doc reference updated and
the seam Agent Note's naming rationale rewritten to match.
Six mutation RPCs (create/edit/pause/resume/complete/clear) move into
dsh-host-apiproxy (the PR's host/runtime carrier is gone): goalService()
resolves ctx.get('goals') with a loud absence error, mutateGoal() resolves
the session's agent (agentFor, the command.* implicit-resume precedent) and
acknowledges with the new CAS ref only. GoalError codes ride err.details.
goal.get and the wire GoalView/goalViewSchema are gone: the read side is the
'goal' session projection (whole values on the history tail page and
session/projection frames), so responses never feed client state — the rule
whose absence forced the original PR's write-revision fences.
Conflict rulings follow the projection-reattach plan:
- host/runtime package (deleted on master): take master; the PR's boot
composition moves to the cordis.yml roster and its goals handlers will be
re-landed in dsh-host-apiproxy; the session.prompt slash interception and
its spec are dropped entirely (superseded by command.execute + command/run
logging).
- client core (rewritten on master): take master; the PR's Session goal
fields/methods, ConversationSnapshot.goal, goalActions injection, and the
hard-mounted GoalBar are all superseded by the 'goal' session projection
(useProjection) and will return as the ui-goal plugin.
- wire contract: union of master's workspace/command/skill domains and the
PR's goal domain, minus goal.get (the read side is the projection block +
session/projection frames; six mutation RPCs stay).
- GoalBar component and spec leave ui-conversation (they re-land in the new
ui-goal package); IconSparkle16 stays in ui-conversation chat.
- The web-slash-command-dispatch note documents the dropped interception and
is removed; the goal-bar note will be rewritten for the projection model.
- pnpm-lock.yaml taken from master (reinstall recomputes).
The web GUI's folder picking was hardwired to one interaction: a native
OS chooser compiled into the gateway, unusable for remote deployments
and swappable only by editing apiproxy source.
Directory picking becomes a three-package capability seam in
packages/host: ctx.directoryPicker returns a discriminated capability —
dialog (the extracted native chooser; host-display only) or browse
(new: one-level listing + child creation over Node stdlib, hidden flags
host-stamped, symlinks followed, ancestry crumbs; remote-capable). The
gateway injects the seam, advertises the kind via
host.describe.directoryPicker, serves host.listDirectory /
host.createDirectory under browse, and answers
directory-picker-unavailable across kinds. cordis.yml is the swap
point; apps/cli keeps dialog mounted, so behavior is unchanged until
the in-app browser PR flips the default. The connection fixture serves
a deterministic browse tree; WorkspacesService gains the browse calls
the browser UI will drive. Decision record:
.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-directory-picker-capability-seam.md
Review follow-ups: the three new notify loops (currentProvideInfo
subscribers, ui-skill lexicon listeners, late-registration controller
setup) now contain per-callback failures so one faulty consumer cannot
starve the rest, abort the list projection pass, or poison the source
roster with no disposer; controller lexicon polling drops a throwing
source with a console record like the candidate path. The ui-slash
README (both languages) now states the late-registration warm and the
subscribeLexicon contract, and the scenario suite drives a typed /name
token gaining its decoration when the roll settles with no further
input.
provideInfo(id)/maybeProvideInfo(id) lost their last external caller
when the renderer host switched to the currentProvideInfo observable;
both become private (tests assert through the public projection). The
reprojection method's name now says what it does — re-derive and
publish on change — and matches the field family it maintains.
`ConnectionHandle.sessionSearchResultLimit` mirrored
`SESSION_SEARCH_RESULT_LIMIT` as per-connection state, giving one fact two
homes in the same module and implying a transport-varying or server-negotiated
bound that the response schema's fixed `max` forbids. `SessionsService` now
reads the constant directly and its constructor drops the parameter; the
connection handle and its unreachable `/client` value re-export go away.
The import comes from the inline-safe wire layer rather than the connection
plugin's `/client` surface, which the bundle-purity gate rejects for value
imports.
A provider roster change under a stable current id rematerialized every
scope's bundle but nothing notified React: SessionProvider resolved the
bundle from a current-id subscription only, so mounted entries kept the
obsolete hook/prop schema until an unrelated re-render. The sessions
service now owns an atomic currentProvide observable fed by both current
writes and roster changes; the renderer host exposes it as
sessions.provide, replacing the current/provideInfo/maybeProvideInfo
trio, and both providers subscribe to it.
Lint: eslint --fix over the merge-crossed projection/command files (arrow
parens, trailing commas, unnecessary assertions), Extract<> replaces the
keyof-map & string intersections no-redundant-type-constituents rejects,
the fold-adapter's merge loop drops its non-null assertions for a
bounds-carrying cursor, one JSDoc line wrapped under max-len (api-catalog
regenerated). Snapshots: the four TUI goldens re-recorded for the merged
event-count shift (the durable command lifecycle adds one event to the
seeded diagnostics log). The headless advanced-toolchain snapshot passes
on CI and fails locally in this sandbox both with and without these
changes (30s child timeout — environment-bound, tracked in the ledger).
commandId crosses three boundaries (session log, wire admission response,
client flow pairing), so per the branded-id rule it becomes
Branded<'CommandId'>, declared in a new pure @deepseek-ai/dsh-commands/brand
outlet (the dsh-llm/brand shape: type + constructor, no Context merges, so
wire and client programs can name it without loading the host plugin). The
event payloads, CommandExecution, and the executor mint carry the brand; the
wire schema gains commandIdSchema as the domain's single brand-cast point
(the approvals precedent); CommandNode and the fixture's fabrication cast
follow type-only.
The consumer-side restated declare-merges retire (user ruling: one home per
projection key): TodoPanel imports the todos merge and TodoItem through
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-todo/client, and the manager takes the title merge
through @deepseek-ai/dsh-session-title/client — both pure-type outlets
re-exporting the domain's single-source types.ts, so no host value import or
Context merge enters the client program (type-only edges, exempt from the
plugin value-import ban). Workspace deps and tsconfig references added.
Also aligns the fixture's empty-log tail block with the host convention
(asOfSeq -1 with empty values, block always present on tail requests).
The manager's titleSnapshots Map and its session/title frame consumption
dissolve into resident per-session ProjectionValueStores (create-on-demand,
outliving instantiation — the same role the snapshot map played): a
session/projection frame lands whether or not the Session exists, list rows
read the store's 'title' key, subscribed baselines truncate phantom rows, and
session-removed drops the store. The fixture converts to the host parallel:
a projections block on the tail page (title + todos units), push frames on
unit-advancing events, and a post-subscribe projection baseline replacing the
bespoke title control frame.
TodoDock reads useProjection('todos') (whole list or null pre-first-write;
absent renders nothing) and declare-merges the todos key through the pure-type
outlet — the identical member the tool-todo host unit owns, drift rejected by
any program holding both. The core Session's todos field, its todo/write case,
and the snapshot member retire; the client folds nothing. Session specs for
the retired client fold move to the value-store spec's seq coverage; snapshot
literals across component specs drop the field.
Client-side domain folding is gone (RFC final: the host is the only
computation site): ProjectionCellSpec/fromEvent, ProjectionCellSet, the
SessionsService cell roster, and the Session event-dispatch projection hooks
all delete; Session.projections becomes the generic value store (manager-owned
via SessionOptions so frames landing before instantiation and the history
baseline converge on one row set), and installWindow only seeds the store from
a carried block. The cell specs retire with the machinery — the value store's
own spec owns the seq semantics now.
The push-model client base (session-projection RFC final): ProjectionValueStore
holds key → {value, seq} per session, seeded by the tail page's projections
block and updated by session/projection frames under one rule — higher seq
wins on both paths (stale baseline cannot overwrite a newer frame; replayed
frames cannot regress; an omitting fresh baseline clears = capability absent);
truncate() drops phantom rows past a subscribed durable baseline. Per-key
identity-stable faces (always defined; absence is an undefined snapshot) feed
useProjection; the renderer contract's projections member becomes faceOf.
12 store specs cover both seq directions, absence, truncation, and batching.
CommandService.execute now returns a CommandExecution — the normalized
result plus the commandId minted for its command/run/command/done records —
and the wire admission value carries commandId exactly when matched, so the
issuing client can correlate its RPC acknowledgment with the flow node the
lifecycle events produce. apiproxy api/schema/handler, the connection
fixture, and the TUI/plan/goal consumers follow the new shape.
The line field is deleted (pre-release, no shim): name and args are
parseCommand's own split — name plus verbatim rawInput with its separator
whitespace — so a consumer (a projection unit folding its own command
records, a rich command card) never re-parses a line. CommandNode mirrors
the split (name/args, both null on a run-less cross-window node); the
generic card rebuilds its display line as /name + args. The connection
fixture logs the same structured payload.
The FoldAdapter folds the log-only command/run + command/done pair (paired
by commandId) into a CommandNode outside the surface fold and merges the
nodes into the flow by seq; cross-window cuts soft-fall like tool pairs (a
done-only window builds the node from the done, a run with no done renders
as still executing). ChatView renders command nodes through the new keyed
'conversation.chat.commandview' hole (key = command name) with
GenericCommandCard — a stripped-down GenericToolCard showing the command
line and outcome text — as the render-site fallback, so any slash command
renders durably with zero registration and survives refresh, other tabs,
and resume via the mux-broadcast events.
