A ModeDefinition is now exactly { section, access? }; unknown keys (a
tools list included) fail loud at load. What plan mode still does: the
guidance section, the exit_plan_mode visibility rule (plan only, both
soft surfaces), the access cap's bash/resolve-mode clamp, and the two
cap-derived pre-execute guards (the bash trio is withheld when no
confining executor can honor the cap; sandbox escalation is denied
while it holds). The general deny-by-default gate and the assemble
allowlist filter are gone: which tools a mode admits is an effects
question, and a hand-maintained name list mislabels it — it must track
every composed tool and rots silently as tools arrive. The dimension
returns as a consumer of effects self-declaration on tool definitions
(MCP ToolAnnotations as the template) — rationale and restart trigger
archived in the RFC's Alternatives/Deferred; the interim guidance-only
non-shell restraint is priced in Consequences.
Exiting plan is now a pure removal (the exit tool + section), which the
delta encoding CAN express: the re-recorded plan-mode fixture pins one
plan-shaped initial header snapshot plus one header-delta instead of
two snapshots.
A ModeDefinition may declare access: the widest sandbox access shell
commands run under while the mode holds, on the SANDBOX_MODES ladder.
The bash seam gains the resolution point to hang it on: BashExecutor.
resolveMode(session) folds override ?? default and dispatches the new
bash/resolve-mode waterfall; dsh-tool-bash consults it at both the
stamping site and the escalation baseline; dsh-mode's clamp listener
takes the ladder minimum per call. Two independent log folds compose at
read time — the mode never writes the sandbox knob, so the two switch
in any order and the knob re-emerges intact on exit.
The built-in plan definition ships access: read-only with the bash trio
allowlisted CONDITIONALLY: both policy layers admit bash/bash_output/
bash_kill only while a confining executor is mounted (an unconfinable
shell cannot honor the cap), and a bash call carrying sandbox_permissions
under a cap is denied at the gate — no widening mid-mode; the widened
step belongs in the plan.
examples/plan-acp-agent swaps bash-local for sandbox-local +
bash-sandbox (workspace-write default, clamped read-only inside plan)
plus the approval seam; the re-recorded plan-mode arc runs a real cat
inside plan under the clamped sandbox, and modes-advertise now pins the
sandbox-mode and approval config options. RFC amended to the landed
shape (access cap section, orthogonality FAQ, deferred item resolved
into effects self-declaration).
The stack rebases onto a moved master through its base branch. Beyond
mechanical unions (both branches' demo scripts, example rows, service
roles, tool lists, acp deps, doc budgets — each side fit alone, the
union needs the higher ceilings), three semantic reconciliations:
- The ACP bridge now carries BOTH per-session surfaces: the sandbox
stack's config options + approval answerer and this branch's session
modes; session/new and session/load advertise modes AND configOptions
side by side.
- The feature matrix supersedes the sandbox stance per the RFC's
second-lander rule: session/set_mode and current_mode_update flip to
shipped-by-dsh-mode, config-option rows stay as #169 wrote them, and
§6 records both landed features under the picker-to-modes /
knobs-to-config-options division.
- The snapshot pin grammar (#254: one header snapshot + declared deltas
+ a Markdown prompt golden) gains a symmetric declaration for what a
delta cannot express: expectedHeaderSnapshots — a plan-mode flip
resorts the canonical tool list, so its widening lands as a second
full snapshot, now its own Markdown section. The pin-less-class and
model-turn-only-pin amendments carry over; new fixtures cover the
extended writer paths, and the plan-acp-agent scenarios re-recorded
under the merged composition (the app now bundles the skill tool)
with the suite's refresh mode wired through.
Rewrite the agent-scope RFC with executable examples and an explicit security non-goal. Harden subagent scalar and depth validation, and pin live tool-filter semantics across code, tests, and generated docs.
Queue worker results before settlement cleanup, claim terminal and death boundaries before provider callbacks, and close late-message admission.
Make child cancellation and disposal reentrancy-safe across the workflow bridge and generic subagent wrapper, with adversarial regression coverage and RFC documentation.
Make Cordis construction and teardown ownership reentrancy-safe, then carry caller and provider ownership through reservation, setup, publication, quiescence, and sentinel retirement.
Stabilize registry carriers and factory/workflow boundaries, add adversarial lifecycle regressions, and align the rewritten RFC plus generated contracts with the enforced behavior.
