The acp run passed config.env wholesale into the spawn spec's ordinary
channel, which rejects the reserved DSH_* namespace — a deployment fact
like DSH_PERMISSION_MODE (the acp-agent example's own knob, used by the
with-key e2e) crashed the spawn. The run now splits DSH_* entries onto
dshEnv, where the scrubbed base expects current facts to arrive. New
layering test drives the split through the real seam via a MOCK_ECHO_ENV
knob on the mock server; README env prose updated (en+zh, re-recorded).
CI now exports DSH_GATE_CONCURRENCY into every job, and the lsp suites
spread the raw parent env into the spawn spec's ordinary channel — which
the seam rightly rejects for DSH_* names. The specs now build their child
env the way production does (scrubbedParentEnv() + explicit extras).
The acp with-key e2e never mounted dsh-subprocess-local, leaving the
provider's inject unsatisfied, so no 'acp' provider ever registered.
The parent branch's zh translations were recorded against its pre-reshape
en text; this PR's Node-ward en deltas get minimal zh updates across the
subprocess catalog and the subprocess/lsp-local/subagent READMEs (all
type-equiv blocks byte-identical), with pairing records re-recorded.
The dedup guard pinned 'no duplicate stamp' — under the header baseline no
stamping exists, so its event-count assertion became a tautology and its
fence assertions a subset of the stale-seed case. The spec docblock claimed
the session invariants pin the stamping design (superseded); it now names
the three review-found timing threats the suite pins as distinct shapes.
Service overrideOf JSDoc shrinks to a pointer at the owning pure export.
Review fixes (ds-review-bot warnings on #623):
- One chain, every consumer: the override resolution (own post-seed
switches ?? header baseline, closed-vocabulary validated) moves into pure
exports (sandboxOverrideOf / approvalOverrideOf); the services delegate,
and the permission presets consume them — current(session) and set()
now see inherited baselines, so a child inheriting danger-full-access
gets REAL knob switches when workspace-write is selected instead of a
silent no-op, and a seed-carried preset selection is subsumed by the
baseline. current(events) becomes current(session) (pre-release; the
only callers were tests).
- Unconditional durable validation: a malformed header baseline fails
loud on every read, no longer shadowed by an own switch.
- The two policy peers are declared optional (peerDependenciesMeta), so a
thin spawn/fork deployment without policy plugins can consume the
driver; verify-runtime-closure honors the flag.
Red-first: inherited-preset derive/switch-away and seeded-selection tests
in the permission suite; malformed-baseline-with-own-switch tests in both
policy suites.
Review fix (ds-review-bot critical #2 on #623): the first-turn event stamp
had a durability hole no turn anchoring can close — an idle SessionStart-
style injection persists a complete one-shot turn before any prompt turn
opens, so a crash in that window left a resumable-looking child with no
inherited policy, falling back to a possibly wider deployment default.
The captured overrides now ride the child's creation meta into its
immutable SessionHeader (sandboxMode/approvalPolicy, neutral strings at the
session boundary — the delegationDepth precedent), durable from the moment
the session exists: no listener ordering can starve the baseline and no
crash window can lose it. overrideOf(session) on both policy services
resolves fold(events past header.seedLength) ?? header baseline, validating
against the closed vocabulary on read; stampOverride and the prompt-submit
listener machinery are deleted. The header field rides both persistence
backends (JSONL header line; SQLite sessions columns, SCHEMA_VERSION 11 —
pre-release, no migration). pty-local reads through overrideOf so PTY
spawns see the baseline too.
Red-first: header-durability-before-any-turn test (the injection crash
window shape), baseline/seed-boundary/closed-vocabulary contract tests in
both service suites; the real-wall suite (race, veto, fork stale-seed,
grandchild) re-anchored on header assertions and green. The Agent Note's
Alternatives now records the superseded event-stamping iteration with the
review evidence; bilingual docs updated.
(A1) terminate()/dispose()/service teardown keyed on direct-child settlement
could leak a TERM-trapping descendant that outlived the leader (Codex
reproduced it with a disowned trap-SIGTERM helper). kill()/terminate() now
gate on tree liveness instead of outcome settlement; the SIGKILL escalation
timer survives settle (unref'd, re-probing the tree); dispose's tier
quiescence is whole-tree exit via a bounded waitForExit; the service's live
set releases handles only when their tree is gone, and its teardown awaits
tree exit. Three new suites pin the survivor scenarios end to end
(terminate, dispose, service teardown).
(A2) the escalation branch is now real tested behavior — its ignore is gone;
the one remaining signalTree guard ignore states why it is unreachable
through the handle verbs.
(A3) docs contradictions fixed: the impl README's stale POSIX-only bullet
now states the contained best-effort Windows tree story; the lsp-local
README no longer claims taskkill failures stay visible (containment + the
tree-liveness wait is the actual contract); the architecture tables (en+zh)
list all three consumer families.
(B1) OutputCollector keeps a byte-exact tail across uneven chunk boundaries
(trim the head chunk instead of dropping it whole) — the LSP diagnostic-tail
contract; pinned by a cross-chunk test.
(B2) the subagent-acp coverage ignore is narrowed to exactly the
never-settling success arm.
Review direction (tianyicui, PR #660): in a stacked PR, change all other
process-running places to use the new service.
- lsp-local: LspConnection spawns through ctx.subprocess (piped protocol
streams + a no-spill collected stderr tail); its private process-tree
helpers (POSIX group signalling, Windows taskkill, liveness polling) are
deleted in favor of the seam's handle verbs, and its buildChildEnv now
rides scrubbedParentEnv (LSP children also stop inheriting stale DSH_*).
The plugin injects 'subprocess'; compositions/tests mount
dsh-subprocess-local.
- subagent-acp: the ACP child spawns through the seam (piped ndjson streams,
inherited stderr); spawn failure surfaces through done-rejection into the
same startup race; disposal is handle.dispose with the plugin's configured
graces. dsh-subagent-subprocess is DELETED — its dispose ladder and scrub
are the seam's, and the isolated-config-dir helper had no consumer.
- mcp-client, pty-local, sdk-helper: adopt scrubbedParentEnv as the one
scrub definition (their spawns stay put by ownership: the MCP SDK and
node-pty own those calls; the SDK wizard runs outside any composition).
- Coverage: per-file 100% over every touched src file, with each v8 ignore
carrying a platform or contract reason; new suites cover stdio
dispositions, the dispose ladder tiers, injected-win32 tree semantics,
waitForExit, settled-kill/terminate no-ops, and spawn-failure disposal.
- Docs: consumer-migration Agent Note (en; zh follows in this PR), seam note
updated in place, subprocess.md rewritten for the reshaped vocabulary
(type-equiv re-registered), READMEs and SERVICE_ROLES updated, taskkill
added to knip ignoreBinaries.
Review feedback (tianyicui): 'process' is a poor service name. The family is
now packages/subprocess/ — @deepseek-ai/dsh-subprocess (ctx.subprocess,
abstract SubprocessService, Subprocess* vocabulary) and
@deepseek-ai/dsh-subprocess-local (LocalSubprocessService) — renamed
throughout code, compositions, docs (en+zh, pairs re-recorded), catalogs,
and gates. 'subprocess' is the precise term for managed OS children (the
Python-stdlib sense), avoids colliding with Node's global process object,
and reads as one system beside dsh-subagent-subprocess.
ds-review-bot findings addressed:
- kill() on a settled handle is now a no-op (no signal to a possibly-reused
pgid, no referenced grace timer delaying exit); pinned by a spy test.
- The moved DshEnvironmentKey/DshEnvironment/CollectedOutput types get
drift-checked type-equiv blocks on the new subprocess.md page, restoring
their manifest registration.
- subprocess.md is registered in the core.md sub-page index (en+zh).
Review feedback (tianyicui, PR #657 inline): the missing-service message
should mention dsh-tasks, which defines ctx.tasks, rather than promoting a
specific backend. The seam's own surfaces (README, the direct-mount fence)
keep pointing at implementations, so the pointer chain still lands on
dsh-tasks-local without the producer strings going stale when another
backend becomes the recommended default. Agent Note updated accordingly
(en+zh, re-recorded).
New process/ capability family: @deepseek-ai/dsh-process owns ctx.processes —
abstract ProcessManager.spawn(spec) over a fully-explicit ProcessSpawnSpec —
plus the shared DSH_* managed-environment and CollectedOutput vocabulary;
@deepseek-ai/dsh-process-local carries the former bash-local run.ts plumbing
(detached groups, tail-keep spill-backed output, credential scrub, kill
escalation, kill-and-join disposal) with no config of its own.
dsh-bash-local becomes a consumer: it keeps command defaulting, the fused
deadline timedOut/aborted classification, the model-friendly terminal env
(now merged through the ordinary env channel), and the [stderr]-marked
background read merge, and spawns through ctx.processes. Background-process
lifetime moves to the manager, so an executor reload no longer kills live
background work; a background spawn failure is injected once into the read
path instead of being buffered as fake stderr. dsh-bash re-exports the moved
vocabulary so bash consumers keep one import root; dsh-bash-sandbox only
redeclares the inherited inject.
Every composition loading a bash executor now loads dsh-process-local (CLI,
examples, python bundled runtime, create-sdk bash feature, inline test
configs).
The tasks/ family now matches the capability-seam shape: @deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks
keeps the abstract TaskService (ctx.tasks contract, vocabulary types, snapshot
invariant companion) and the new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks-local carries the
process-local registry (LocalTaskService: in-memory store, settlement,
owner-cleanup effects, teardown, TASK_WAIT_TIMEOUT). Compositions and test
harnesses now load dsh-tasks-local; producers, TaskKindMap merges, and
dsh-tool-tasks keep importing the seam only.
Producer misconfiguration diagnostics name dsh-tasks-local because loading the
implementation is the fix. The registry behavior suite moves to tasks-local;
the seam keeps a stub-subclass registration test and the probe-based invariant
suite.
run_code gains a required bash-style description parameter: presentCall
titles the card with it and moves the program to rawInput, so every
surface gets a readable label. tool/code-dispatch now logs each
sub-call's complete content/isError (the tool/result vocabulary),
replacing the bounded resultSummary and deleting the summarize/cwd
machinery — a UI renders sub-calls through the identical path as native
results. The dsh config tree mounts the worker code runtime and reads
DSH_TOOLS_MODE (temporary seam until per-session mode selection lands).
Session format stays v0 (pre-release churn). Code-mode ACP/TUI fixtures
re-recorded; TUI presenter pin refreshed; catalogs regenerated. Keyless
web smoke pins the code-mode wire contract (tools=[run_code] + SDK
prompt section).
Post-merge reconciliation: master's plan-mode command wording and tool-schema
changes land in the recorded scenario's keyless sidecars (refresh, not
re-record — the model transcript is untouched); the abort-handoff fake agent
stubs ctx.get for the driver's new synchronous inheritance capture; the two
zh Agent Notes gain the sentences their English sides added on this branch,
re-recorded in the pairing manifests.
Review fixes (ds-review-bot on #623):
- Capture-at-delegation: the driver now reads overrideOf(parent.session)
for both knobs synchronously before its first await, and the prompt-submit
listener stamps those captured values — a parent switch racing the child's
asynchronous creation belongs to the parent's future, not the child. The
inheritOverride(parent, child) service method is split into its two halves
(overrideOf / stampOverride) accordingly.
- Veto safety: the one-shot prompt-submit listener registers with
prepend: true, so a veto-capable listener (a denying UserPromptSubmit
hook) cannot close the child's first turn without the durable stamp.
Both regressions are pinned red-first in inheritance.spec.ts: the
delegation-vs-late-switch race (delegate tool flips the caller wider while
the creation transaction is pending) and a blocking prompt-submit listener
(stamp survives a promptless first turn). Service contract tests renamed to
the split API; READMEs and the bilingual Agent Note updated.
Per-session policy overrides (sandbox/mode, approval/policy) never crossed
the delegation boundary: a spawn child of a read-only-switched parent ran
under the wider deployment default, and a fork child missed any switch made
after its seed boundary — delegation was a bypass channel for a user's
tightening.
The in-process driver now snapshots the delegating parent's override chain
and stamps it onto the child through the canonical write paths
(SandboxPolicyService.inheritOverride / ApprovalService.inheritOverride),
anchored inside the child's first turn via a one-shot agent/prompt-submit
listener: turn-enclosed (durable), ahead of the first request (an inherited
'never' reaches the child's first system prompt), and positioned after any
stale fork-seed switch so the ordinary last-event-wins fold resolves it.
Only overrides are copied — an unswitched parent stamps nothing and the
child follows the live deployment default; both services are consumed
opportunistically, so compositions without them delegate unchanged. Nesting
composes by construction (each stamp folds the already-stamped parent log).
Evidence: inheritance.spec.ts drives scripted-model children into the real
dsh-fs-sandbox fence through the real write tool (disk-state + denial-marker
assertions; spawn, stale-seed fork, grandchild, escalation fail-closed, and
no-stamp guards), inheritOverride contract tests in both service suites, and
the recorded subagent-sandbox-inheritance ACP snapshot (read-only preset →
delegate → child denied, replayed keylessly).
See .agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-25-subagent-policy-inheritance.md.
Replace send/steer/inject with one Agent.send primitive over the
(target × wakeup) matrix; followup/steer/inject become fixed-preset
alias methods on the now-abstract Agent class. Coalesce context/message
into user/message (injected context is a non-user source). Replace
agent/queued with agent/inbox/enqueue/dequeue/discard, add cancel
keepInbox, and add a FIFO-conservation invariant.
