llm.registerAdapter, agents.register, sessions.create, systemPrompt.section,
systemPrompt.tools, and tools.register each mutated state, emitted a change
event, then returned the disposer. In Cordis a synchronous throw before the
effect returns its disposer leaves nothing for the fiber to collect, so a
throwing change-listener leaked the registry entry permanently — HMR/dispose
could not clean it, and the duplicate-name/already-exists check stayed wedged
until restart.
Convert each to the generator-effect pattern already proven in
AgentLoop.create: mutate state, `yield` the disposer that undoes it (collected
before the next step runs, so it is torn down if a later step throws), THEN
emit the change event. The existing duplicate-name throws are unchanged — they
fire before any mutation, so they correctly leak nothing. No public API change:
generator effects are still synchronous SyncEffects and register() keeps
returning its fire-and-forget disposer wrapper.
Tests: a listener-throw rollback test for all six methods — register with a
change-listener that throws, assert the call throws AND the registry is clean
(entry absent; a subsequent listener-free register of the same name succeeds
and contributes exactly once). For systemPrompt (no duplicate-name check) the
two tests assert assembly is clean. Verified each fails against the pre-fix
emit-before-return-disposer form.
Introduce HarnessError in dsh-llm (the leaf package): a stable machine-routable
code distinct from the message, cause chaining, name from the subclass, plus
isHarnessError. LlmError, ToolArgsError, and InvariantError now extend it.
Tool failures carry the structure end-to-end: ToolExecutionResult gains
error: { name, code } (populated from a thrown HarnessError), and the loop
forwards it onto the tool/result session event (which gained the same optional
field) for retry/sandbox plugins and replay. The loop's toError wraps non-Error
throws in a HarnessError(code: UNKNOWN, cause) instead of a bare Error.
Landed last and in isolation so it's a pure upgrade over the plain Error+code
the earlier PRs used — independently revertible. Graduates RFC 005 pt 2 ->
ADR 0015; RFC 005 now fully implemented.
New @deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants plugin (pure listeners, off in prod) asserts
the event taxonomy at runtime — seq monotonicity, turn/step nesting, a
tool/result needs a prior tool/call (NOT the converse), legal agent/status
transitions — and deep-freezes logged event data so mutating history throws.
Seeded sessions are checked + frozen on session/created.
The real RFC 008 fix is always-on: deriveMessages now structured-clones the
content it emits, so the loop's sanctioned request/adapter mutation can no
longer reach back and rewrite the append-only log. The pervasive
DeepReadonly<T> type flip is rejected (compile-only, high-noise, castable) —
recorded in ADR 0012, which folds in RFC 008. Wired into both demos.
Nominal string types via a unique-symbol brand (zero runtime cost):
an AgentId can no longer be passed where a CallId is expected. Each
core package brands the IDs it owns — CallId in dsh-llm (tool-call
correlation across blocks, chunks, session events, and execution
results), SessionId in dsh-session, AgentId in dsh-agent. Construction
goes through same-named factory functions; public string-in APIs
(sessions.create, agentLoop.create) keep accepting plain strings and
brand internally. Policy note in the brand module: brand IDs that
cross package boundaries, not every string.
Flat config with two layers. Correctness (type-checked): the headline
rules for this codebase are no-floating-promises / no-misused-promises
(a lost promise in the agent loop is our primary bug class),
switch-exhaustiveness-check (we switch over merge-extensible unions
everywhere), no-unnecessary-condition, require-await, and
no-explicit-any. Style (@stylistic): 2-space, no semicolons, single
quotes, trailing commas, max-len 140 — the existing house style, now
enforced instead of drifting between agents. vendor/ is excluded
(vendored source keeps upstream style); tests relax the rules that
fight test ergonomics (non-null assertions after expects, async mock
signatures, non-Error throws).
Code adjusted to pass: registry disposers wrap ctx.effect's
promise-returning disposer behind a sync () => void (our public API),
BlockAssembler gains an invariant-checking mustGet instead of non-null
assertions, lastTurnNumber uses findLast, waterfall tails return
Promise.resolve instead of async-without-await arrows, and the two
deliberate suppressions (non-exhaustive derivation switch, unbound
execute pass-through) carry justification comments.
yarn lint / yarn lint:fix added.
tsconfig.base.json adds noUncheckedIndexedAccess,
exactOptionalPropertyTypes, noImplicitOverride,
noFallthroughCasesInSwitch, noUnusedLocals, and noUnusedParameters on
top of strict. Vendored packages opt out of the new flags locally
(their tsconfigs are ours to regenerate; their source is not), keeping
upstream-sync friendliness.
Our code fixed accordingly: index accesses acknowledge undefined
(assembler flush cursors, lastTurnNumber); optional properties are
omitted instead of set-to-undefined (GenerateResult.usage,
ToolDefinition.strict, GenerateOptions.system/tools, error payloads
via an errorData helper); Session.onAppend is explicitly
`(…) => void | undefined`; tests and examples updated for unused
parameters and indexed access.
Docs: per-folder README.md for packages/ (family overview + one per
package: service, events, API, extension points, TODOs), examples/,
and examples/echo-agent/; folder-level AGENTS.md (+ CLAUDE.md
symlinks) for packages/ and vendor/; module-level doc comments in
every packages/*/src file; richer JSDoc on all exported API
(event side effects, disposal contracts, error behavior). Root
AGENTS.md gains a "Type Safety and Documentation" policy section:
the codebase aims to be very type-safe and well documented; type
gymnastics are acceptable in core packages when they improve
plugin-author DX; verbose docs are fine as long as they stay strictly
in sync with the code.
Type safety: removed the upstream-inherited "noImplicitAny": false
from tsconfig.base.json — packages/* now compile under full strict
mode; vendor/loader and vendor/include set it locally (vendor/cordis
already did). Eliminated every `: any` / `as any` from packages and
examples (catch clauses use unknown + a CodedError narrowing type;
event data access uses discriminated-union narrowing).
Typed tool schemas: new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools schema DSL —
SchemaSpec with per-property `required: true` booleans, type-level
InferArgs<S>, a runtime SchemaSpec → JSON Schema converter, and
defineTool() so first-party tools get typed execute(args) with zero
casts (raw JSON Schema still accepted for MCP interop; chosen over
schemastery because it targets JSON Schema generation directly).
echo-tool and all test tools migrated; +7 tests.
High (loop pipeline): agent/step-result now runs before the
assistant/message append so the session log records what tool dispatch
actually uses; abort is honored between tool calls, not just
mid-stream; steering drains at step start, pending steering overrides
a negative turn-continuation decision (/goal pattern), and leftover
steering is re-enqueued as queued messages so it is never stranded;
exceptions from turn-continuation listeners and session/flush are
contained to the turn (error event + agent/error) instead of killing
the driver loop.
Medium: disposal emits agent/status('disposed') and mid-turn disposal
records reason 'disposed'; duplicate LLM adapter registration throws
(all-or-nothing); SessionEvent is a real discriminated union (casts
removed); model-less agents fail with a clear actionable error unless
agent/request supplies a model.
Low: agent/queued and agent/steering carry the resolved MessageSource;
streamBlocks() yields strictly in stream order and flushes delta-only
blocks (matches generate()); BlockAssembler freezes blocks on
block-end and ignores stragglers from malformed streams; turn
numbering is a counter seeded from the log (fork-safe); LoopAgent's
stop disposer is infallible (a throwing status listener cannot skip
registry cleanup); AgentLoop.create uses a generator effect so stop
and unregister are independent disposables; SessionStore wires
onAppend inside its effect.
21 regression tests added (review-fixes.spec.ts), organized by
finding. Docs updated: loop pseudocode (status emissions, ordering,
error containment, steering guarantees) and waterfall composition
caveat in docs/architecture.md; AGENTS.md notes that excessive tests
are welcome.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm: provider-neutral content-block vocabulary
(merge-extensible maps), raw StreamChunk protocol, ToolSchema,
abstract LlmAdapter, LlmService adapter registry, BlockAssembler.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-session: event-sourced Session (append-only log,
deriveMessages; context/steering render as tagged envelopes),
SessionStore, session/event + awaited session/flush durability seam.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-system-prompt: ordered sections + tool-schema
providers; assemble() through the system-prompt/assemble waterfall.
Tool schemas are part of the assembly by design.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools: tool registry feeding schemas into the
assembly; execute() through the tools/execute waterfall (the single
sandbox/permission/hook seam).
@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent: Agent interface (send/steer/inject/abort,
spawn/fork TODO seams), AgentRegistry, and the full agent/* event
taxonomy so plugins never depend on the concrete loop.
