context/message previously defaulted to a <context source="…">…</context>
wrapper. No model is trained on a <context> tag either, and message
framing does not belong on the session surface: the surface projects the
durable log, and a caller that wants a frame formats its own content —
which the one heavy producer (workspace-context) already does with its own
<system-reminder> frame, opting out via 'raw'. The tag only added
machinery — ContextEnvelope plus an envelope field threaded through
InjectOptions, HookContext, the context/message event, and the agent-loop
inject/additionalContexts plumbing.
context/message now projects its content verbatim as a user-role message,
sharing one deriveEventMessage case with user/message and steering/message.
ContextEnvelope and every envelope field are removed; context/message.meta
still carries durable, model-hidden JSON state. Regenerated catalogs and
website API; refreshed the three affected keyless snapshots (envelope field
only; timestamps unchanged).
Broadens and renames the steering Agent Note to cover both envelope
removals as one decision.

steering/message previously rendered inside a <steering source="…">
envelope like context/message. No model is trained on a <steering> tag,
so the framing is arbitrary markup the model was never taught to read;
recorded transcripts show it treating the instruction as third-party
metadata and refusing it. Framing also does not belong on the session
surface — a caller that wants a frame formats its own content. It now
projects verbatim as a plain user-role message; the <context> envelope is
untouched and renderTagged becomes context-only.

Self-review findings, all prose/metadata (no behavior change): the
package description still claimed hard (execution) enforcement; the RFC
Problem framing still defined plan mode as a read-only tool policy;
integration/mode/snapshot-suite comments still referenced the removed
sandbox clamp and cap; the header-fallback explanation said
'front-of-list insertion' where the actual mechanism is a non-tail
insertion the append-only tools delta cannot express (exit_plan_mode
sits mid-list alphabetically); AGENTS.md's layout line and the RFC's
'policy state/listener' phrasing move to collaboration-state wording.
- fs-sandbox: delegate the mutation with the freshly re-canonicalized target
(not the stale one), so the checked identity is the mutated identity — a
symlink swapped in after resolve() can no longer escape workspace-write.
- tool-fs: map a denial to an FsError carrying FS_SANDBOX_DENIED (not a plain
Error), so ToolRegistry keeps the structured code on result.error for
retry/observers while the message stays the shared marker.
- sandbox-local: derive the Seatbelt writable set from the shared
writableRoots() helper, so the profile and the fs fence cannot drift.
- gen-doc-graphs: ctx.sandboxPolicy is owned by dsh-sandbox-policy and read only
by the sandboxed executor/provider (the tool layers use the pure fold).
- docs: bash-sandbox/bash/permission READMEs and bash.md reflect the relocated
policy home and the sandbox/mode rename; drop the stale stdout.golden.jsonl.
Review follow-up (tianyicui): plan mode and the sandbox are orthogonal
AXES, not just orthogonal state — entering plan must not change what the
sandbox enforces, matching Codex's separation of Plan/Default
collaboration presets from sandbox and approval settings.
ModeDefinition.access, the bash/resolve-mode clamp, and both cap-derived
guards are removed; a ModeDefinition is exactly { section }, and a mode
now carries only its guidance section plus the exit_plan_mode review.
The bash seam's resolveMode + waterfall go with their only listener:
dsh-bash and dsh-tool-bash revert to master byte-for-byte, and the
dsh-mode → dsh-bash dependency edge is gone. A deployment that wants
kernel-enforced read-only planning pairs the mode picker with the
independent sandbox-mode option, in either order.
The RFC archives this as the second removed enforcement shape (after
the interim allowlist) with the same restart trigger — effects
self-declaration; the orthogonality FAQ now answers with the two-axis
rule. The plan example demonstrates the axes side by side, and the
re-recorded fixtures pin the guidance-only section.
