web_search and web_fetch returned only model-facing text, whose markdown source
list is lossy (title-or-hostname label, snippet and date concatenated), so a
client could not recover the structured sources. Add a card:'web' result view
with a kind discriminant ('search' carrying structured sources + answer +
truncated, 'fetch' carrying url + statusCode + truncated), projected through
each tool's output.presentationMeta and read back in presentResult. A UI
without the web card falls back to content; the TUI is unchanged. The web
consumer is a follow-up.
grep and glob returned only model-facing text; the structured matches/paths
never reached the client. Add a card:'search' result view with a kind
discriminant ('matches' grouped by file for grep, 'paths' for glob), projected
through each tool's output.presentationMeta and read back in presentResult. The
projections re-apply the same inline cap and per-line budget as the render text
and report total + truncated, so a UI never presents a capped page as complete.
A UI without the search card falls back to content; the TUI is unchanged. The
web consumer is a follow-up.
The read tool's result carries structured numbered lines, but only the
model-facing envelope text reached the client. Add a card:'read' result view
(ReadResultView) projecting {path, lines, totalLines, lang} through the tool's
output.presentationMeta so presentResult reproduces it on live and replay
paths; the pending call stays a generic read card. A UI without the read
capability falls back to the envelope-stripped content, so the TUI is
unchanged. The web consumer that renders the line-numbered view is a follow-up.
The effort field's existence check was unreachable — EFFORT_FIELD is
total over the two known families — and a coverage exemption was papering
over the branch, which the merged toolchain no longer honored. Taking the
narrowed family as a parameter makes the lookup total at the type level,
so the check and its exemption both disappear. The rendered output is
unchanged: the browser goldens replay byte-identical.
Both provider READMEs state what actually holds: credentials-local now
documents the physical-line editor, the read-modify-write under the
writer lock, and a Security boundary section saying plainly that the file
mode stops other OS users and not the model. sandbox-policy documents
readDenyPaths and its per-backend enforcement. The llm READMEs carry the
registration handle, pi-ai's credential-miss semantics, and DeepSeek's
same-generation snapshot; app-boot and the CLI README stop describing
$DSH_HOME/.env as an environment layer.
A new Agent Note records the round (and the prior seam note cross-links
it); the sandbox and core catalog pages gain readDenyPaths and
AdapterRegistrationHandle with their manifest entries. The headless
missing-credential snapshot re-records for the reworded guidance, pi-ai
gains the Loader-composition guard its twin already had, and the
deliberate provider symmetry is marked for the clone detector.
The write/edit tools already declare card:'diff' with applied hunks on
callView/resultView, but the Web client discarded it: a mutation landed on
GenericToolCard and the details panel flattened the result to a <pre>. Add
DiffBlock (ui-primitives), diff-card-model (the single callView/resultView
derivation), and FileMutationRow (keyed under write and edit), and make the
generic fallback row and the details panel diff-aware. The +/- block form,
per-file path header, same-file gap, and footer mirror the TUI diff card;
the chat row caps at CHAT_DIFF_MAX_LINES against the panel's full height.
The policy home's resolve() now stamps readDenyPaths, so every consumer
that pins the resolved shape (bash-sandbox hand-off, tool-fs stamps)
carries it, and three uncovered branches gained real tests: landlock
reporting partial enforcement for a denial it cannot express, the
policy's default under programmatic construction, and both ambient
credential paths in llm-deepseek without a mounted seam.
The credential store is 0600 under a 0700 directory, which stops other OS
users but not the model: tool processes run as the same user, so under
the shipped danger-full-access default they read it like any other file.
SandboxExecutionPolicy grows readDenyPaths, and sandbox-policy defaults
it to $DSH_HOME/.env — the exact file rather than the harness home, so
the model keeps its documented access to its own session log. Seatbelt
appends a trailing deny (last matching rule wins) and bwrap maps
/dev/null over each path after any workspace bind; Landlock grants are a
pure allow-list that cannot subtract from its own / read grant, so
confine() reports partial enforcement there instead of claiming a
boundary the process does not have.
A real-kernel Seatbelt e2e proves the shape: the same read succeeds
unconfined and fails under the denial, while a sibling file in the same
directory stays readable. Both READMEs state the residual boundary
plainly — no confining mode means no boundary — and record the OS
keychain provider as the real answer.
The helper's cleanup ran the same fallback for two different events. A
settings provider detaching leaves the consumer running, so falling back
to the composition entry and re-judging derived facts is right. The
consumer's own unload ran it too — re-registering routes and touching
resources the teardown was releasing. The disposer now checks the
consumer fiber's own state and returns when it is unloading or disposed.
Four review findings across the seam and both adapters.
registerAdapter now returns a handle carrying replace(providers): the
candidate route set is validated in full before anything moves, so a
route another adapter owns leaves the previous registration intact, and
the swap itself is one synchronous section with no observable gap. pi-ai
uses it instead of dispose-then-register — the old shape dropped every
route when the new set conflicted, and its facts cache could then equal
the registry's, so reverting to a working configuration never re-applied.
Its registration facts are also sorted by provider, so a settings
document that merely reorders keys no longer triggers a swap.
DeepSeek's per-request snapshot now carries the credential facts, and
resolveApiKey receives it instead of re-reading the raw config: a
settings generation the resolver rejects can no longer contribute its
literal key to a request the previous generation's endpoint serves.
pi-ai only defers to the SDK's provider-native discovery when a profile
names no credential at all; a configured apiKeyEnv that misses now fails
with MISSING_CREDENTIAL naming the route and the reference, instead of
handing pi-ai undefined and letting it authenticate with an unrelated
ambient key.
The eager boot-time credential probe is gone: it could run before the
credentials service mounted and reported every failure as a missing key.
The route stays registered and browsable; the first request gives the
accurate error, whose guidance now leads with the credential store and
mentions a literal apiKey last.
The shipped surfaces loaded the harness home's .env into the process
environment before cordis booted. credentials-local then saw every stored
key as an ambient launch override: describe reported source 'env' with
writable false, and set/unset rejected as shadowed — so a key the web page
or TUI stored was unrotatable and undeletable from the next run onward,
and the adapter kept using the value captured at launch.
The home's .env is now the credential provider's own store, read by that
provider alone and hot-reloaded by it. The genuine launch environment and
the invoking directory's .env (loaded by the bin) remain the read-only
ambient layer, so a plain composition without the provider still resolves
keys exactly as before.
Proven by a real restart in the loader composition: store a key through
the seam, dispose the tree, re-boot over the same harness home, and the
entry is still file-sourced and writable — rotating it lands on the very
next request.
Review round three, credentials half. dsh-atomic-write grows the
cross-process writer-lock primitive (withFileLock: wx sentinel, bounded
backoff, stale takeover via onStaleBreak, deadline failure) plus a dirMode
option, and settings-local migrates its private copy to it; both providers
now create harness-home directories 0700.
credentials-local reuses the reviewed settings-local shape: watcher
reloads and line edits share one settled operation chain; every write
re-reads the document under the lock and publishes unobserved external
entries before editing, so an edit inside the debounce window (or another
process's write) can never be overwritten; the watcher's ready signal
queues one reconcile closing the startup gap.
The line editor is now physical-line aware: continuation lines of a
quoted multi-line value are never mistaken for assignments, untouched
lines keep their exact bytes (CRLF included), an edited line keeps its
own terminator, and appends use the document's dominant ending. A
multi-line entry reports writable: false, matching what set() would do.
The Credentials base class owns a contained notifyUpdated fan-out:
providers publish only after the commit, every listener runs, sync throws
and async rejections are logged without failing the committed write, and
INVARIANT-coded failures rethrow after the fan-out.
