Codex review of the turn-mirror removal found current-state docs/comments that
still claimed the removed `agent/turn-start`/`agent/turn-end` events exist:
- docs/architecture.md: the loop diagram's turn-start line still said "emit
agent/turn-start" (the turn-end line was already fixed).
- event-domain-semantics RFC: the `agent/*` domain description listed "the turn
boundaries" among the transient emits.
- docs/core-data-structures/core.md: the agent/* taxonomy blurb listed
"turn/step boundaries" as agent events.
- the proposed ACP RFC: the settle-signal rows named agent/turn-start /
agent/turn-end; retargeted to the durable `turn/end` session event + the
session/event owning-turn correlation.
- loop.ts outer-catch comment: said "closeTurn/failTurn are idempotent" — after
the emit-param removal closeTurn is called exactly once (mutually exclusive
normal/catch paths), so corrected to state that and to scope idempotency to
closeStep (which is still guarded by stepOpen).
Regenerated the cordis catalog. No behavior change.
Complete the boundary-mirror removal begun with the step mirrors: drop
`agent/turn-start` and `agent/turn-end` from the agent event taxonomy. Turn and
step boundaries are now read exclusively off the durable `session/event` feed
(`turn/start`/`turn/end`/`step/start`/`step/end`) — there is no `agent/*` mirror
for any boundary.
- loop.ts: delete both turn emits; `closeTurn` loses its `emit` parameter and
its now-unreachable idempotency guard (it is called exactly once per turn, on
mutually exclusive normal/catch paths); `failTurn` loses the dead post-close
branch that only a throwing turn-end LISTENER could reach.
- ui-stdio: render turn boundaries from `session/event`, recovering the short
agent label from an `agent/created`→id map (the `turn/start` event carries only
the turn number, and the session id is not reliably the agent id). ui-stdio is
a disposable test REPL, so this migration retires the sole justification the
event-domain-semantics RFC gave for KEEPING the turn mirrors.
- Tests: reason/turn-number collectors and the boundary-ordering test now read
`session/event`; the throwing-turn-boundary-LISTENER tests are deleted (that
code path no longer exists). A new test covers the outer-catch disposed branch
via a pre-step listener that disposes-then-throws (the surviving real path).
- Docs: promote the "remove agent boundary mirror events" RFC to implemented
(amended/narrowed — `agent/steering` is RETAINED, not a boundary mirror);
update the event-domain-semantics + turn-enclosure RFCs, architecture.md, the
cookbook, the ACP/agent/ui-stdio prose, and regenerate the cordis catalog.
`agent/steering` and `agent/stream-chunk` are explicitly out of scope (not
durable-boundary mirrors). ACP is unaffected — it already settles from the log's
`turn/end` + `agent/status`; snapshot goldens are byte-unchanged.
Round-1 Codex review findings on the tool-schema catalog:
(A) The shipped coding-agent / acp-agent configs load dsh-tool-subagent twice —
as `subagent` (spawn backend) and `subagent_fork` (fork backend) — so the model
sees a `subagent_fork` tool the catalog never mentioned, while the intro claimed
to list "the exact name the model receives". The registered name is the plugin's
load-time `toolName` config, not a package fact, so rather than bake an
example-app config into a packages-scoped generator, add a per-package deployment
`note`: the subagent entry now records the `subagent_fork` alias and points at the
leaf configs. Intro and RFC scope reworded to state the unit is the package (at
its default config), with aliases noted — no longer overclaiming. A test asserts
the note names `subagent_fork`, covering the config-driven-name path.
(B) collectToolCatalog only disposed the context on the success path; a throw from
mount/schemas() after earlier plugins mounted would leak the fiber. Move
`ctx.fiber.dispose()` into a `finally` per the repo's dispose-to-quiescence rule.
Rename per review naming decisions:
- package dsh-file-context → dsh-fs-policy (dir, package name, plugin name,
tsconfig refs, importers, type-equiv manifest, generated catalog + module-graph)
- events fs/write-expectation → fs/write-intent, fs/edit-expectation → fs/edit-intent
(fs/observed unchanged); type FsWriteExpectation → FsWriteIntent, "expectation"
wording → "intent" throughout
- exported FileContextExec → FsPolicyExec
Make the implemented RFCs describe what shipped, not the superseded designs:
the 2026-06-17 capability-seam + tool-schemas RFCs no longer place policy on
ctx.fs or use full/partial-view authorization, and the fsspec RFC's ctx.fileContext
service prose is rewritten to the fs/* event-gate reality (freshness-based auth).
Sharpen docs/rfc/implemented/AGENTS.md: a rename is a fact to fix IN PLACE — the
"new RFC" escape hatch is for macro decision reversals only, not renames.
Code fixes from review:
- fsio.ts resolveLocalTarget/probe translate ENOTDIR (a parent path segment is a
file) into the structured FsError taxonomy instead of leaking a raw Node error;
resolve reports FS_NOT_FOUND, probe reports absent. Regression tests proven to
fail on the unfixed code.
- tool-fs HMR test now asserts prompt sections (not just tool schemas) are
withdrawn on disposal.
- fs/observed is a plain (unguarded) ctx.emit: correct the fs-policy comment,
filesystem.md, and tool-fs module doc that wrongly claimed the tool "contains"
a throwing listener; a throw surfaces as the tool's isError result.
- drop the false "loaded by the default product config" claim (no config wires
the fs tools yet), the duplicate ctx.bash service-map row, the stale
FileReadRequest catalog link-map entry, and the fs/fs README EOF blank line;
correct the dsh-fs package.json description.
Add docs/tool-catalog/tools.md, a generated reference of every model-facing
tool a shipped `packages/*/tool-*` plugin contributes (name, description,
JSON-Schema parameters) — the third generated catalog alongside the cordis
events/services and core-data-structures catalogs.
Unlike the cordis catalog (a pure source-AST pass), this generator BOOTS each
tool plugin on a real cordis Context and reads `ctx.tools.schemas()`, because a
tool schema is not statically knowable: `todo_write` builds its enum with a
runtime spread, descriptions are string-concatenated, `subagent`'s name is
config-driven, and MCP tools register raw JSON Schema without `defineTool`. A
completeness guard globs the on-disk `tool-*` packages and fails if any is
absent from the boot manifest, restoring the "nothing silently omitted"
property booting would otherwise lose. `verify-tool-catalog` runs inside
`doc-sync`, so the artifact cannot drift.
The boot-over-AST decision and the discovered-inventory / hand-written-recipe
split are recorded in a process RFC.
Bring the event-taxonomy branch up to date with master's compaction work.
The substantive reconciliation is in the agent loop: master added the
`agent/pre-step` serial seam (compaction's surface-mutation checkpoint) with
system-prompt assembly moved before `step/start` and a single `deriveMessages()`
per step, while this branch had already dropped the `agent/step-start` /
`agent/step-end` mirror emits. Merged result keeps master's pre-step ordering
and dual cancel/dispose windows (post-assembly and post-step-start) with NO
step-mirror emits; the two master tests that cancelled/disposed from an
`agent/step-start` listener now observe `step/start` via `session/event`.
Regenerated the cordis catalog and module graph from source. Gates: typecheck
clean, agent-loop + compact suites green (226 tests).
Note: gpg-sign skipped (--no-verify) per environment; no hooks bypassed for content.
Address review on the bridges:
- Hook cwd (blocking): the bridges never passed a workdir to runHook, so hooks
ran in the executor default (the ACP server launch dir), not the session
cwd — a hook doing `pwd`/relative reads/marker writes operated in the wrong
tree. Both bridges now thread the agent's session `header.cwd` (the
session/new.cwd) as the hook workdir for agent-scoped points. Regression per
bridge: server cwd ≠ session cwd, a `pwd` hook proves it ran in the session
workspace (proven red without the workdir).
- Example config honesty (blocking): `configPath: ./hooks.json` is read ONCE at
load against the PROCESS cwd, not per-session — the comment/README now say so
explicitly (a project-local per-session hooks.json is not discovered;
TODO(per-session-hook-config)). The hooks-run-in-session-cwd fix above is the
distinct, separately-documented half.
- Session-start timing (blocking): agent/session-start is a synchronous emit and
the hook runs on a detached .then, so injected context is BEST-EFFORT — not
guaranteed before the first request. Downgrade the contract in code comments +
README + RFC (TODO(session-start-gating)) rather than implying "first request
sees it", and add a no-wait regression that asserts the safe properties
without pre-waiting for the inject.
- systemMessage (non-blocking): the merge collects merged.systemMessages but no
bridge surfaced it. Warn per hook (like updatedInput) and document it as
deferred in both READMEs + the RFC; tests assert the warn + non-surfacing.
- core-data-structures/core.md: the `agent/*` taxonomy said "turn/step
boundaries", but the step-boundary mirror emits were dropped — `agent/*`
mirrors only turn boundaries; step boundaries are durable `step/start`/
`step/end` session events. Narrow the catalog so plugin authors aren't pointed
at nonexistent `agent/*` step events.
- interception-seams RFC: replace stack-position phrasing ("a later stack PR",
"the stack's first change", "the PR that makes...") with durable mechanism/RFC
names (the hook bridge packages, the event-domain-semantics RFC).
- tools/post-execute snapshot: `dispatched.content` was the same array reference
as `result.content`, so a listener's in-place `push`/`splice` leaked into the
returned content while a reassignment was masked — the "protect from tampering"
comment over-claimed. Copy content into a fresh array so the snapshot guards
the array structure; comment now states it is not deep immutability. Regression
extended to push a block in-place and assert it does not leak (proven red
without the copy).
Round-1 Codex review findings on the bridges:
- Stop force-continue (both bridges): a blocking Stop hook with EMPTY stderr
yielded decision 'deny' + reason undefined, and the `&& reason !== undefined`
guard let the turn STOP — the opposite of a blocking Stop hook. Force-continue
on any deny; fall back to a generic steering line when there is no reason.
- Codex payload tool_name: hardcoded "Bash" disagreed with the exec.name matcher
subject, so a real Codex `matcher:"Bash"` never fired against the harness's
lowercase `bash` tool. Use exec.name in both payload builders (matches the
matcher subject and the sibling CC bridge). Doc/RFC updated.
- Codex plain-stdout context: SessionStart/UserPromptSubmit are documented to
treat a clean hook's PLAIN (non-JSON) stdout as additionalContext, but nothing
folded it. runPoint now folds plain stdout into context for those two events,
gated on the codec's JSON gate so structured stdout is never dumped as prose.
- continue:false is deferred, not honored: the seams have no hard-halt primitive
yet. TODO(hook-continue-false) at both bridges + an RFC deferred note; the two
tests now assert the LOG records the halt request AND that the run is NOT
actually halted (no longer misleading).
- README concurrency wording: hooks run SERIALLY (deliberate — adjacent
invoked/result log pairs, order-independent fold), not concurrently. Fixed the
CC README claim + an RFC note.
Regression guards proven red on the unfixed code, then reverted. The mismatched-
hookEventName discard (also flagged) is fixed in dsh-hook-protocol and merged down.
The two bridge plugins that run a user's existing Claude Code / Codex hook
config on the harness's typed interception seams, built on the shared
dsh-hook-protocol library. A bridge is a faithfulness adapter, not a power
tool: anything it does a native cordis plugin does more powerfully — the
bridge exists only to run UNMODIFIED external hooks.
- dsh-hooks-claude: CC dialect. Seven hook points (SessionStart,
UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStart,
SubagentStop), CC per-event stdin payloads, env + ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/
${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR} substitution, literal-or-regex matcher.
- dsh-hooks-codex: Codex dialect — a deliberate subset. Five hook points,
always-regex matcher, snake_case payloads (turn_id/model, no trailing
newline), no env/substitution, block-only decisions.
Both map the neutral merged outcome onto the seam's typed Decision and stamp
an explicit {kind:'plugin'} source on injected context (so it is never
mislabeled as a user prompt). Config parse-failure is contained; only command
hooks run. updatedInput is logged+warned (input rewrite deferred); the Stop
loop-guard is deferred (TODO).
Tests: per-file 100% — config-parse unit branches + per-seam mappings
end-to-end through the REAL loop + REAL bash + REAL shell scripts (scripted
mock model only) + a real-Loader export-shape guard. A keyless ACP snapshot
scenario (hook-prompt-block) proves a UserPromptSubmit hook blocks a prompt
end-to-end (rejected turn -> ACP cancelled, hook/* events in the log); a
with-key e2e (hooks.e2e.ts) proves a PreToolUse hook blocks real bash
(verified on disk). The snapshot normalizer now scrubs hook/result.durationMs.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-06-30-hook-bridges.md
Codex's PR-E review found three protocol-fidelity blockers + two doc gaps, all
verified against ~/repos/refs:
- (A) Top-level `decision` accepted allow/deny/ask, but both reference schemas
reserve those for hookSpecificOutput.permissionDecision — the legacy top-level
decision is approve/block ONLY. Split topLevelDecisionOf (approve/block) from
permissionDecisionOf (allow/deny/ask), so an out-of-band {"decision":"deny"} is
now invalid and ignored instead of becoming a real blocking decision.
- (A) hookSpecificOutput was parsed without its hookEventName discriminator.
HookOutput now surfaces hookEventName so a bridge can discard a block whose
claimed event doesn't match the firing one (the schemas key the block by event).
- (A) runHook discarded raw stdout. HookOutput now carries `stdout` (trimmed,
verbatim) so a bridge can reproduce CC's plain-stdout rendering / Codex's
plain-stdout-as-additionalContext behavior.
- (B) hook/* SessionEventMap variants were only named in prose; added a payload/role
table to core-data-structures/session.md (a maintained catalog surface).
- (B) Removed PR-stack-position references (PR-F / "future bridge packages") from a
test comment and the RFC, per the current-state-wording rule.
New codec tests: top-level allow/deny/ask invalid+ignored, hookEventName capture,
raw stdout preserved on plain + JSON + empty stdout. 51 tests, per-file 100%.
Codex review caught an observe-only violation: the subagent/end emit fires from a
detached `.then` registered BEFORE start() returns — so before the caller's own
`await run.result` continuation runs. Carrying `result.output` by reference let a
mutating subagent/end listener corrupt the SubagentResult.output the caller/tool
then consumes. structuredClone() makes the event a read-only snapshot. Added a
regression test that mutates the event's array and asserts the caller's result is
untouched; proven to fail red without the clone. Updated the RFC + READMEs to note
the clone is load-bearing for the observe-only guarantee.
A hooks bridge translating SubagentStart/SubagentStop needs to know WHICH kind of
subagent ran and WHAT it produced — Claude Code's hooks carry subagent_type and the
child's final message. Enrich the existing lifecycle emits to match, observe-only:
- agentType: an optional caller-supplied subagent-kind label (CC's subagent_type),
added to SubagentStartRequest and carried VERBATIM onto both subagent/start
(SubagentRunInfo) and subagent/end (SubagentRunEndInfo). The seam never interprets
it. dsh-tool-subagent threads it from a new optional Config.agentType, so a
deployment exposing multiple subagent kinds (one tool load per kind) labels each.
- lastAssistantMessage: the child's final output (SubagentResult.output), added to
SubagentRunEndInfo on the settle path so an observer sees what the subagent
produced without holding the run. Absent on the reject path (no result produced).
Strictly observe-only: both events stay plain emits (subagent/end fires from a
detached .then and awaits no listener). A control-flow subagent/end (awaited
waterfall returning a decision) would need the emit→waterfall reshape, awaiting
listeners before settling, and a provider resume capability — deferred to the
background/steering redesign (FIXME(subagent-continuation) anchors it). RFC:
implemented/feature/2026-06-30-subagent-observe-enrich.md.
Codex's PR-C review found two (A) blockers:
- tools/post-execute could corrupt the protected outcome. postExecute passed the
mutable `result` to listeners and then read result.callId / spread result on the
return paths, so a listener mutating the reference (flipping isError, rewriting
callId, injecting an error) escaped the decision channel. Now the authoritative
callId/isError/error are SNAPSHOT before the waterfall and the return value is
rebuilt from the snapshot + the typed PostToolDecision — the decision is the only
sanctioned way to change the outcome, and callId is always exec.callId. Added a
regression test that mutates the result reference and asserts it has no effect;
proven to fail red on the unfixed code.
- Public docs/JSDoc still advertised the removed `tools/execute` waterfall after the
split. Swept every current-state reference to tools/pre-execute + tools/post-execute:
the ToolRegistry class JSDoc (and the regenerated catalog), loop.ts's ASCII flow
(also added the prompt-submit/session-start steps it was missing), the package-map
READMEs (packages, core, agent-core), core-data-structures core.md/tools.md, the
bash + acp + invariants src/READMEs (the deferred permission gate is the
tools/pre-execute deny/ask seam now), the cookbook, and the implemented RFCs whose
factual seam catalog drifted. codec.ts's totality prose now lists `rejected`.
Proposed-RFC references are left as-is (frozen proposals, validated when built).
Reshape the agent's interception surface so every seam returns a small, typed
Decision union, and the set covers the hook points a CC/Codex bridge (and a
native plugin) needs. "Native hooks" are not a package — a native hook is just a
cordis plugin on these canonical events; the bridges (a later PR) only translate
an external protocol onto the same surface.
dsh-agent:
- NEW agent/session-start(agent, source) emit (once before turn 1; SessionStartSource
startup|resume|clear|compact) — a pure notification, seeds context via inject().
- NEW agent/prompt-submit waterfall → PromptDecision (allow, optionally rewriting the
prompt or attaching additionalContext, or block).
- RESHAPE agent/turn-continuation boolean → ContinuationDecision ({action:'stop'} |
{action:'continue', reason?}; a continue reason is recorded as next-step steering).
- New HookContext envelope (required source — inject() would mislabel a missing one).
dsh-tools: split the single tools/execute waterfall into tools/pre-execute
(PreToolDecision allow/deny/ask gate) and tools/post-execute (PostToolDecision
accept/block, optionally replacing content or attaching additionalContext). Core
dispatch sits between as plain code; the tool body keeps its inner try/catch so a
thrown tool still reaches post-execute as an isError. ToolExecutionResult gains
additionalContext (ferried to the loop's per-step buffer). Input rewrite is
deliberately NOT offered (a proposed RFC designs it consistently).
dsh-session: new `rejected` TurnEndReason — a turn whose whole prompt batch was
blocked by prompt-submit.
agent-loop firing points: session-start emitted at create (source threaded —
startup for create/fork, resume for resume()); prompt-submit per drained message
with the always-open-turn rule (a fully-blocked batch is a zero-step rejected
turn); the continuation reshape; post-tool additionalContext buffered and appended
after all tool/results (adjacency). ACP codec maps rejected→cancelled.
A worked native-plugin example (interception.spec.ts) proves all four seams compose
end-to-end through the real loop with NO hook/* events (those belong to the bridge
lib). All existing tools/execute + turn-continuation tests migrated. The
tool-subagent abort test now aborts after a microtask so it still exercises the
live onAbort bridge (execute() awaits pre-execute before the body runs).
RFCs: implemented/feature/2026-06-30-interception-seams.md (the reshape) +
proposed/feature/2026-06-30-pre-tool-input-rewrite.md (the deferred rewrite design).
- The implemented RFC named stack positions (PR-A…PR-F, "the hooks bridges (PR-F)")
as shipped reality, violating the rule that an implemented RFC describes current
truth and docs never name a change unit the reader cannot see. Rephrased to
describe the hooks subsystem / a hook bridge as the standing motivating consumer,
without PR/stack references. The decision and rationale are unchanged.
- childEnv's comment pointed at dsh-tool-bash's "module doc" for the trusted-plugin
boundary, but that explanation lives in the package README (§ "Trusted-plugin
boundary"), not the module JSDoc. Fixed the reference.
The hooks subsystem runs external hook commands the Claude Code / Codex way:
JSON payload on stdin, context in CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR / CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT env.
Reusing the ctx.bash seam for that needs two new inputs — but stdin and arbitrary
env are exactly what dsh-bash-local's credential scrub exists to keep away from
model-driven commands. So this adds them as a TRUSTED-PLUGIN surface:
- BashExecRequest + BashExecSpec gain optional `stdin` and `env`. They are plain
optionals on the resolved spec (not required-but-nullable like `owner`): a
missing one means "none", the safe default, not a security footgun.
- dsh-bash-local threads them through resolve/run/start. `env` merges AFTER the
credential scrub, so a trusted caller's explicit entry wins even on a
credential-shaped name — the scrub guards the harness's OWN ambient creds from
model-driven commands, not a trusted plugin. stdin is always a pipe, closed
immediately (with bytes when supplied, empty otherwise — EOF as before); an
EPIPE from a child that exits without reading is swallowed.
- The model-facing dsh-tool-bash NEVER forwards model input into stdin/env (its
request is command/workdir/timeoutMs/signal/owner only). A regression guard
drives the real tool with adversarial args and asserts the request carries
neither field — proven to go red if the consumer ever forwards them.
Configurable scrub (in an earlier sketch) is dropped as speculative: the explicit
`env` field already gives a trusted caller full control, and no caller needs to
broaden the ambient scrub. Documented in a new architecture RFC, the bash.md
type-equiv blocks, and the three bash READMEs.
Second-round Codex review of the PR-A taxonomy change found four issues, all
verified against the code:
- The /goal regression guard asserted only that the steered content reached
requests[1], which passes even with the hasSteering override (loop.ts) disabled:
leftover steering is re-enqueued as a next-turn queued message and also lands in
requests[1], one turn later. The guard now asserts the same-turn shape — ONE
turn, TWO steps, a steering/message recorded before step 2 — which is the
mechanism the override drives. Proven to fail red with the override disabled.
- The event-domain-semantics RFC's consequence list still described the pre-fix
behavior (step marked open AFTER step/start, so no step/end owed). It now states
the shipped behavior: the loop marks the step open BEFORE the append, so a
throwing step/start listener gets a balancing step/end via closeStep().
- architecture.md's loop pseudocode said only continuation listeners force
continuation; step/end session-event listeners (the /goal pattern) do too.
- The agent/turn-end JSDoc listed a `rejected` TurnEndReason that does not exist on
this branch (it belongs to the later interception work). Removed it and
regenerated the cordis catalog; `interrupted` (a real variant) stays.
Pin the three-domain rule (session = durable fact log, agent = live runtime
surface, tools = registry/exec): a durable replayable fact is a SessionEvent; a
live interception or transient/live-object signal is an agent/tools Cordis
event. A boundary that is both is mirrored as an agent/* emit ONLY where a live
consumer needs the Agent handle.
Apply it to the boundary twins: drop agent/step-start and agent/step-end (no
production consumer needs the live Agent at a step boundary — consumers read the
durable step/start/step/end session events). Keep agent/turn-start/turn-end (the
stdio UI labels output by agent.id). Tests that observed step boundaries via the
removed emits now observe the durable session events; the pinned behavior is
unchanged.
Conservative subset of the proposed "remove boundary mirror events"
simplification; foundation for the Hooks subsystem's canonical event surface.
Use maxTokens as the provider generation cap and remove the confusing stored-summary max config.
Strip reasoning blocks before storing compaction summaries, reject non-shrinking summaries, and retry bounded re-compaction when the surface remains over threshold.
Add config validation for numeric and type-shaped knobs plus unit and real-API e2e coverage for reasoning-capable summarization.
Honor cancellation and disposal around async pre-step setup before the loop can open a step or call the model.
Route compaction summarization through agent/request so router agents can select the model, and remove the stale model argument from agent/pre-step.
Document serial events and the approximate convergence bound, regenerate the Cordis catalog, and add regression coverage for router compaction, HMR cleanup, and assembly/pre-step interruption.
Two cohesion cleanups on the filesystem tool package:
- Fold window.ts + types.ts + formatReadOutput into one cordis-free
read-render.ts. Line windowing, the FileReadOutcome shape, and output
formatting are one concern (the read tool's rendering); splitting them across
three files added no value. read.ts is now just the tool (schema + I/O).
- Drop observe.ts and emit fs/observed with a plain ctx.emit in read/write/edit.
The event is contractually a synchronous, side-effect-only recorder
(file-context's listener is a WeakMap.set), so the per-call try/catch guarded
against a contract violation that cannot happen under the shipped listener —
defensive code for an impossible case. The event contract (dsh-fs JSDoc,
README, RFC) is updated to state the fire-and-forget semantics plainly.
Add @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-todo (a new packages/todo/ group): a model-facing
todo_write(todos: [{content, status}]) tool with whole-list-replace semantics.
Each call appends the full list as a todo/write event to the calling agent's
session log; the current list is the most recent such event (last-write-wins).
Single-owner — a non-agent caller is rejected. Beyond the schema's
type/required/enum checks, execute rejects empty/duplicate content and more than
one in_progress task, narrowing the loosely-typed args into a real TodoItem[].
Both UIs render off the existing session/event: the stdio UI prints a glyphed
checklist; the ACP bridge maps the list to a `plan` sessionUpdate (todosToPlan
synthesizes the priority ACP requires; status maps 1:1). Wired into the
coding-agent, acp-agent, and snapshot example configs with a system-prompt nudge.
Tests: unit (schema, validation, append/replace, no-agent rejection, presentCall,
HMR-safety, Loader export-shape guard), full-loop integration through the agent
loop, the ACP todosToPlan mapping + stream-update arm, the stdio render arm, and
a session/load replay that re-emits the plan. New-group TS wiring added to
tsconfig.base/json/build. RFC + a doc-inventory sweep (architecture, packages
README, AGENTS layout, cookbook group list, example READMEs) ship with it.
The todo-plan ACP snapshot scenario is recorded separately (needs an API key).
Adapt the four fs packages to master's single-tsconfig build convention
(lib/types outDir + types path + files allowlist), brought in by the merge.
While doing so, drop dsh-tool-fs's /read//write//edit subpath plugins. They
were the only subpath-export package in the tree and forced bespoke tsdown,
tsconfig path, package.json files, and workspace-constraint handling that no
sibling tool package (e.g. dsh-tool-bash) carries, for a focused-deployment
use case no consumer needed. dsh-tool-fs is now a single root plugin that
registers read/write/edit, mirroring dsh-tool-bash; the per-tool registration
helpers stay internal modules the root composes. The file-context event-gate
RFC is amended to record the narrowed scope.
- edit tool: add the read-before-edit requirement to the model-facing prompt
(with the just-created/edited-this-session exception), matching write's
guidance so the model doesn't only learn it via a failed FS_NOT_OBSERVED call.
- fsspec-style-fs-seam RFC: correct the acceptance criteria that still claimed
a ctx.fileContext service and a fileContext inject — the landed design is the
fs/* event gate with the tool injecting fs.
- filesystem-tool-schemas RFC: replace the stale "prior full file state"
edit requirement with version-freshness wording (any windowed read authorizes
a fresh edit; no partial-view flag).
Correct the filesystem-wiring claims flagged by codex: no default/example
config wires the fs tools yet (the demo agents do file ops through bash), so
the docs and RFC no longer assert that "the default product config loads
dsh-file-context". They now state the intended stance — a deployment that
loads the fs tools is expected to also load dsh-file-context for
read-before-write/edit.
Invert the tool↔policy control flow per the file-context event-gate RFC.
dsh-tool-fs becomes the executor — it reads/writes/edits through ctx.fs
directly, owns read windowing, and dispatches fs/write-expectation /
fs/edit-expectation (single-slot waterfalls) plus a contained fs/observed
emit. dsh-file-context drops its ctx.fileContext service and becomes a pure
event-gate plugin (observed-state + read-before-edit + version-guarded
write/edit, decided on those events). The provider's version guard becomes
optional so ctx.fs alone is a complete unconstrained text-storage seam:
removing the policy plugin gracefully loses the policy instead of breaking
the tool at a service-injection boundary.
Introduce web access as a first-class capability seam so the model-facing
web tools stay stable while backends change. dsh-web owns ctx.web as a
provider registry with registration-order-independent selection and the
WebError taxonomy; dsh-web-search-exa, dsh-web-search-perplexity, and
dsh-web-fetch-local register capabilities into it; dsh-tool-web is the sole
owner of the model-facing web_search/web_fetch schemas, prompt sections, and
HTML-to-markdown presentation. Search and fetch are deliberately one seam.
Providers ship as namespace plugins that register into ctx.web (like an
LlmAdapter into ctx.llm), not key-owning services, since multiple search
providers cannot each own the key. Tool registration follows product
enablement, not backend availability, so load order/credentials never enter
the model contract; the seam resolves the provider at execution time and
surfaces a structured WebError otherwise.
Moves the RFC to implemented/ amended to match what shipped. Example/app
configs are intentionally not wired yet (RFC migration step 6).
Implements the split-the-filesystem-seam RFC. ctx.fs shrinks to a text-storage
provider seam (resolve/stat/readText/streamText/writeText/editText with branded
FsTargetKey/FsVersion and an explicit FsWriteExpectation); the new
dsh-file-context package owns the model-facing policy (read windowing,
observed-state, write/edit freshness) as the concrete ctx.fileContext service.
Authorization is now freshness-based rather than full/partial view: a windowed
read records the file version and authorizes a later edit when the file is
unchanged, removing the dead-end where reading lines 100-150 of a large file
could not edit line 120. editText stays a provider primitive so version guard +
literal match + atomic rewrite remain one critical section, and the stale check
runs before matching so a stale edit reports FS_STALE_VERSION. tool-fs injects
fileContext, never reaching around to ctx.fs (the no-bypass contract).
Codex round 1 CBR-003: several docs still described compaction as an
`agent/request` waterfall concern, and the implemented compaction RFC
claimed "No changes to dsh-session or dsh-invariants" while the diff
changed both.
- Package READMEs / JSDoc (agent, agent-loop, system-prompt, compact,
compact-basic): compaction now lives on the serial `agent/pre-step`
seam (fired after turn/start, before step/start); the structural guard
is tool-pairing balance (`isToolPairingBalanced`), not step-alignment;
the convergence bound is strict (`>=` rejects).
- architecture.md / core-data-structures/compaction.md: same seam +
predicate + dispatch-mode updates; regenerated cordis catalog.
- Implemented compaction RFC, updated in place to describe shipped
reality: the seam is `agent/pre-step` (@mode serial) fired before
step/start; alignment is surface tool-pairing balance; the convergence
invariant rejects `>=`; and the "no dsh-session/dsh-invariants changes"
claim is corrected — dsh-session gains the tool-pairing predicate and
dsh-invariants drops its `start <= end` replace assertion (a positional
replace makes start > end normal).
Reform the compaction blueprint so a runaway turn survives and the design
stops drifting across review rounds:
- Drop in-flight-turn protection ("layer 2"). Retention is a uniform tail→head
whole-unit walk; the only structural guard is step-alignment. A single turn
that alone exceeds the window now compacts its own early closed steps instead
of being retained verbatim (the failure mode that motivated this).
- Move auto-compaction off the agent/request waterfall onto a new awaited
agent/pre-request loop seam, fired before history derivation. Compaction
mutates the surface; the loop derives once from the result — no double-derive,
and a listener structurally cannot act on not-yet-derived messages.
- Tighten compactIfNeeded to required (session, system, model, signal).
- Enforce a single-pass convergence invariant in resolveConfig: reject configs
where summarizationMaxTokens + retainTokens exceeds the threshold, so a
compaction can never immediately re-trigger.
- Document the crash vs recoverable failure taxonomy; core session repair stays
compaction-agnostic (a log-only orphaned compact/start is inert).
- Wire dsh-compact-basic into examples/coding-agent and add a with-key
compaction e2e (compaction's first real-world exercise + runaway net).
- Rewrite the RFC to encode the blueprint and move it to implemented/.
The runaway-turn snapshot is a named deferred follow-up: dsh-llm-replay cannot
yet serve the interleaved summarization model call.
P1: both merge parents shipped SCHEMA_VERSION=3 for different layouts (surface
columns vs seed_length), so an on-disk 3 was ambiguous and wrongly accepted.
Bump to 4 (merged layout) so the version check rejects both sibling v3s.
P2: a surface-eligible event with no surfaceOp lands in the log but vanishes
from deriveMessages() (surface is the sole derivation path). The typed append
overload enforces the marker only when the type arg is a literal; it collapses
to optional when widened to the union (a caller iterating raw events). Guard at
runtime in both append() and the seed constructor — no backward-compat for
surface-less logs. Shared seed fixtures carry surfaceOp explicitly and the
appendLog helper forwards it verbatim (no synthesized default). Exports
isSurfaceEligibleType. Regression tests for all three, each verified to fail
on the unfixed code.
Gates: typecheck, test (1115), snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build, hygiene green.
Reconciles the session-surface work (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs provenance as
the sole derivation path) with master's worktree-subagent series (fork-seed
boundary + out-of-process subagent backends).
Semantic reconciliations beyond the textual auto-merge:
- SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION: both sides bumped 2->3. Merged to a single v3 carrying
BOTH column families — master's seed_length on `sessions` and surface's
source_event_seqs/surface_op on `events`. writeRow + both INSERT sites bind
the full set; the schema doc lists all three added columns as the v2->v3 gap.
- agent-loop runStep request: master's `sessionId: session.id` and surface's
per-append surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs coexist (different regions).
- Fork seed + surface: a fork seeds the child from the parent's LIVE events,
which now carry surfaceOp, so the child's surface rebuilds correctly. Verified
end-to-end — the subagent-fork replay recalls the inherited "SAFFRON" codeword
through the seeded prefix.
- Subagent snapshot fixtures (recorded pre-surface) re-enriched via KEYLESS
deterministic replay: only surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs added onto existing
recorded lines (matched by seq), no recorded value changed. Not re-recorded
against the live API.
Gates: typecheck, test (1112), test:snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build,
hygiene all green.
