Type-only change (brands are zero-cost casts; no runtime/wire impact). Closes
the two gaps in the "brand ids that cross package boundaries" policy and fixes
the dependency direction so a capability package never pulls in an unrelated one.
- Extract the `Branded<B>` primitive into a new standalone type-only package
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-brand` (packages/util/brand) with no harness-package deps.
dsh-llm keeps its owned CallId but imports Branded from dsh-brand; dsh-session,
dsh-agent, and dsh-bash all import Branded from there. dsh-bash depends on
dsh-brand ALONE — never on dsh-llm or dsh-session (the architectural fix: a
generic execution backend must not couple to the LLM or session vocabulary).
- Mint BashTaskId + OwnerToken in dsh-bash and thread them through BashTask.id,
the get/ownerOf/list/readOutput/kill seam, the bash-local generation site, and
the dsh-tool-bash validate/access surface. OwnerToken is a DISTINCT brand from
SessionId so the seam stays decoupled; dsh-tool-bash is the single boundary
that casts SessionId -> OwnerToken.
- Brand at the SOURCE, not via mid-pipeline casts: agent-loop's Config types
agents[].id as AgentId and resumeSessionId as SessionId, so the brand enters
at the config boundary and the inner create()/resume casts disappear (only the
genuinely-new per-run session-id string is cast).
- Stop brand erosion: propagate CallId/SessionId/AgentId to the registry/store
Map keys and public params/exports (SessionStore, AgentRegistry + factory
options, the ACP session-id surface + ToolPresenter CallId map, the
persistence coordinator, invariants pendingCalls, the pi-ai tool-call maps).
- Docs: document BashTaskId/OwnerToken in bash.md (type-equiv re-pasted), point
the Branded type-equiv at dsh-brand, fix stale param types in the session/
agent/bash READMEs, regenerate the cordis catalog + module graph.
Implements docs/rfc/proposed/architecture/2026-06-20-branded-ids.md
The original prune removed BashExecutor.get()/.list() too, but each is a
one-line accessor over the executor's already-tracked tasks map, and removing
them forced dsh-tool-bash's tests onto a ~35-line onTaskDone completion-tracking
harness just to replace the one-line ctx.bash.get(id) lookup. Per the AGENTS.md
"RFCs are proposals, not golden truth" principle, that disproportionate
migration cost is evidence the methods earn their keep — a test harness IS a
consumer programming against the seam.
Restore get()/list() (seam + LocalBashExecutor impl + the bash tests that used
them, dropping the doneFor/trackCompletions scaffolding). The persistence
has()/delete()/deleteStored removal stands — it had only contract-test callers
and no test-ergonomics cost. The RFC is retitled persistence-only with an
implementation note recording the bash revert.
Second Codex pass caught two proposed RFCs that describe the bash seam as it
WAS (with get/list) and would read stale once this prune lands, plus a latent
test-helper edge:
- docs/rfc/proposed/architecture/2026-06-20-branded-ids.md and
2026-06-20-generic-long-running-tool-runtime.md: drop get/list from the
BashExecutor seam description (surviving: resolve/run/start/ownerOf/
readOutput/kill/onTaskDone). branded-ids will be further updated when it is
implemented; this keeps it accurate in the meantime.
- trackCompletions now records every completion to `done` unconditionally (and
also wakes a parked waiter), so a second doneFor(id) after completion resolves
instead of hanging.
Codex review of the PR2 diff caught doc/comment sites doc-sync does not gate
(core-data-structures prose) and a latent test-helper race:
- docs/core-data-structures/persistence.md + bash.md, sqlite README, and two
source comments (coordinator.ts, jsonl.spec.ts) still listed the removed
has/delete/get/list methods — updated to the surviving four-method
persistence surface and the get/list-free bash seam.
- doneFor(ctx, id) attached its onTaskDone listener lazily, after the task
could already have closed (e.g. `true`), so it could miss the completion and
hang. Replaced with trackCompletions(ctx): one eagerly-installed listener
(mounted in setup() before any task starts) records every completion, and
doneFor resolves immediately for an already-finished task or on completion
otherwise. Race-free, and there is no get-by-id seam left to poll instead.
Two capability seams carried abstract methods no production consumer calls.
A method no consumer programs against is not a seam — it is speculative
surface every implementation must still provide and test.
- SessionPersistence: remove has() and delete(), the coordinator's
has/delete/deleteCore, and the PersistenceBackend.deleteStored hook (with its
jsonl + sqlite + in-spec memory-stub impls). Surviving service surface:
create/append/load/list. Production uses only load() (resume) and list()
(ACP session/list).
- BashExecutor: remove get(id) and list(), the abstract decls and the
LocalBashExecutor impls. The internal tasks map survives (it backs
ownerOf/readOutput/kill); get/list were pure public accessors over it with no
shipping caller and no bash_list tool.
- Migrate tests that reached through ctx.bash.get(id) to the public completion
seam: a doneFor(id) helper over onTaskDone awaits a task by id, and the
HMR-reload ownership test now proves task survival through A's own bash_output
([status: running]) plus ownerOf + B-rejection — a stronger through-the-tool
assertion than the removed lookup peek.
- Update seam READMEs (six -> four service methods, drop the deleteStored hook
and the get/list row) and the two implemented persistence RFCs in place.

Add a README to each group dir (core/llm/bash/session-persistence/ui/
support) stating its role and product-vs-support classification, and
rewrite packages/README.md around the hierarchy (group table, grouped
"what goes where", removed the package-hierarchy FIXME).
Move the package-hierarchy RFC to implemented/architecture/ and rewrite
it to describe what shipped (placement rationale, the paths-wildcard and
publint dedup, the two new guardrail gates). Fold the remaining
tsconfig.build.json references dedup into the discover-package-inventory
proposal and fix its cross-link.
Update AGENTS.md: regrouped repo-layout map, depth-2 globs, the new
verify-package-paths gate in the doc-sync listing, and a note that we
lean toward stricter lint in the agentic-coding era (machine-caught
errors and a consistent foundation outweigh the one-time cost).
Merge brought in the RFC-classification reorg and two new doc gates;
rewrite every drifted packages/<name> cross-link (Markdown link targets,
moved-README relative depths, and .ts comment paths) to the grouped paths.
Add two doc-sync/hygiene gates so the manual checks this restructure
needed become automated:
- verify-package-paths.ts: flags a packages/<path> reference (in Markdown
or a .ts comment/string) that does not resolve AND names a real package
in a segment — i.e. a stale path to a MOVED package. A path naming a
non-existent package (a forward-looking proposal) is left alone, so it
applies uniformly across proposed/implemented/rejected.
- check-workspace-constraints: assert the packages/<group>/<pkg> depth-2
shape (group dirs carry no package.json; no flat or over-nested
packages). Group names stay open; only the shape is fixed.
Move the 18 flat packages/<name> packages into role-grouped dirs:
core/, llm/, bash/, session-persistence/, ui/, support/. Group dirs are
pure containers; each package keeps its @deepseek-ai/dsh-* name.
Collapse the per-package tsconfig paths maps (base + typecheck) into one
@deepseek-ai/dsh-* wildcard with a candidate per group, and derive the
publint list from the hierarchy. Update all depth-coupled globs/configs
(workspace, tsdown, vitest, eslint, knip, tsconfig includes/refs,
per-package tsconfigs, generators, doc-script scopes, type-equiv manifest)
and the cross-package/script relative imports in tests.
Fix doc-typecheck's workspacePaths() to parse tsconfig JSONC via the
TypeScript API instead of a regex comment-strip, which corrupted the
new wildcard `/*/` path candidates.
WIP: doc cross-links and package/RFC docs still to update.
Background-task ownership needs a stable home that survives a consumer HMR
reload. Add an optional `owner?: string` to `BashExecRequest` and a
required-but-nullable `owner: string | undefined` to the resolved
`BashExecSpec` (mirroring how `workdir`/`timeoutMs` are required on the spec —
a forgotten owner is a visible `undefined`, never a silently-absent property
that yields an unowned, cross-session-readable task). `resolve()` carries it
through.
Expose the stored token via a new `BashExecutor.ownerOf(id): string |
undefined` seam (ONE read path — not also on the public `BashTask`). The
executor stores and returns the token verbatim and NEVER interprets it: the
access POLICY lives in the consumer (`dsh-tool-bash`). `bash-local` stores
`owner` on its `TrackedTask` and implements `ownerOf`; unknown-id and
known-but-ownerless both read as `undefined`. Because ownership lives on the
task in the executor (disposed with the `dsh-bash` fiber), it survives a
`tool-bash` HMR reload.
Updates the StubExecutor seam test and the bash/bash-local READMEs.
Hard line breaks mid-paragraph make docs harder to edit and diff — a
one-word change reflows and re-diffs the whole paragraph. Reflow all
tracked non-vendor Markdown (plus vendor/AGENTS.md) so each prose
paragraph is a single line; soft-wrapping is the editor's job. Fenced
code, tables, and list structure are preserved (wrapped list items fold
to one line per bullet). Documents the convention in AGENTS.md.
Three packages following the new capability-seam pattern (interface /
implementation / consumer, now documented in docs/architecture.md):
- dsh-bash: abstract BashExecutor service (ctx.bash) + vocabulary types.
- dsh-bash-local: local subprocesses — bash -c per call in a detached
process group, SIGTERM→SIGKILL group kills, tail-keep truncation with
full-stream spill files, model-friendly env, background task registry.
- dsh-tool-bash: the bash / bash_output / bash_kill tool schemas with
runtime arg validation and background completion notices via
agent.inject(). Non-zero exits are reported, not errored.
Design surveyed against the bash tools of Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex,
and pi (notes in the package READMEs). Permissions/sandbox stay TODO on
the tools/execute waterfall seam; stateful-shell alternatives recorded
in run.ts.
