Drop SubprocessSpawnSpec.dshEnv and splitEnvChannels(); childEnv() is now
scrubbed-base + explicit entries with no namespace validation. The invariant
dropped is the reserved-namespace check on explicit entries (DSH_* rejected
from env, non-DSH_* rejected from dshEnv). Explicit-entry trust already
covers it: an explicit credential-shaped entry has always merged after the
scrub as a deliberate caller opt-in, and an explicit DSH_* entry is the same
deliberate act — the staleness invariant lives entirely in scrubbedParentEnv
dropping AMBIENT credential-shaped and DSH_* names, which stays. The
validation's only observed effect was rejecting legitimate explicit entries:
both recent CI breakages (DSH_GATE_CONCURRENCY exported into every job
crashing lsp specs, DSH_PERMISSION_MODE in acp config.env crashing the
child spawn) were this check firing on values a caller meant to pass, each
fixed by routing around the bureaucracy the seam itself imposed.
The bash seam keeps its own request/spec dshEnv field: that is bash-owned
trusted-plugin vocabulary (the ctx.bashEnv collected overlay) whose merge-last
position guarantees a caller env entry cannot displace a managed fact;
bash-local now flattens ENV_OVERRIDES -> spec.env -> spec.dshEnv into the
seam's one env map. subagent-acp and lsp-local pass their single config env
map straight through. DshEnvironment/DshEnvironmentKey/DSH_ENV_PREFIX stay on
the subprocess seam as the namespace vocabulary (bash re-exports them;
scrubbedParentEnv filters on the prefix).
Tests: the two channel-rejection specs and the splitEnvChannels partition
spec are deleted; one spawn spec now proves an explicit DSH_* env entry
reaches the child while an ambient one is scrubbed; the acp/lsp forwarding
specs keep their MOCK_ECHO_ENV / LSP_FAKE_ECHO_ENV assertions with the split
comments rewritten to merge-after-scrub. Docs (en+zh, re-recorded) and the
owning Agent Notes updated; cordis api/services catalogs regenerated.
Review feedback (tianyicui): 'process' is a poor service name. The family is
now packages/subprocess/ — @deepseek-ai/dsh-subprocess (ctx.subprocess,
abstract SubprocessService, Subprocess* vocabulary) and
@deepseek-ai/dsh-subprocess-local (LocalSubprocessService) — renamed
throughout code, compositions, docs (en+zh, pairs re-recorded), catalogs,
and gates. 'subprocess' is the precise term for managed OS children (the
Python-stdlib sense), avoids colliding with Node's global process object,
and reads as one system beside dsh-subagent-subprocess.
ds-review-bot findings addressed:
- kill() on a settled handle is now a no-op (no signal to a possibly-reused
pgid, no referenced grace timer delaying exit); pinned by a spy test.
- The moved DshEnvironmentKey/DshEnvironment/CollectedOutput types get
drift-checked type-equiv blocks on the new subprocess.md page, restoring
their manifest registration.
- subprocess.md is registered in the core.md sub-page index (en+zh).
- Mount LocalProcessManager in the sandbox e2e compositions (bwrap/landlock/
seatbelt + the spine multi-project e2e) and add the spine demo's
dsh-process-local devDependency, so SandboxBashExecutor's new inject
resolves when those suites are enabled.
- Extend the Windows test/coverage skip to packages/process/* — the POSIX
process-group suite moved there from packages/bash.
- Update the stale disposal contract: the bash seam JSDoc, BashProcess JSDoc,
and core bash doc (en+zh) now state that composition teardown (the process
manager's disposal) owns kill-and-await, and an executor-only reload leaves
background processes running.
- Record ctx.processes in the architecture capability table and extension map
(en+zh) and the root AGENTS.md layout tree; reword the timeout-library note
so it describes where the plumbing and classification live today.
New process/ capability family: @deepseek-ai/dsh-process owns ctx.processes —
abstract ProcessManager.spawn(spec) over a fully-explicit ProcessSpawnSpec —
plus the shared DSH_* managed-environment and CollectedOutput vocabulary;
@deepseek-ai/dsh-process-local carries the former bash-local run.ts plumbing
(detached groups, tail-keep spill-backed output, credential scrub, kill
escalation, kill-and-join disposal) with no config of its own.
dsh-bash-local becomes a consumer: it keeps command defaulting, the fused
deadline timedOut/aborted classification, the model-friendly terminal env
(now merged through the ordinary env channel), and the [stderr]-marked
background read merge, and spawns through ctx.processes. Background-process
lifetime moves to the manager, so an executor reload no longer kills live
background work; a background spawn failure is injected once into the read
path instead of being buffered as fake stderr. dsh-bash re-exports the moved
vocabulary so bash consumers keep one import root; dsh-bash-sandbox only
redeclares the inherited inject.
Every composition loading a bash executor now loads dsh-process-local (CLI,
examples, python bundled runtime, create-sdk bash feature, inline test
configs).
- 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.
The managed DSH_* runtime path was correct, but its public extension and documentation contracts were incomplete. A contributor following the README could access ctx.bashEnv without declaring an injection, the new environment types had no drift-checked catalog entries, and the capability graph omitted three packages that now query sessionPersistence.
Declare the README injection, catalog DshEnvironmentKey and DshEnvironment, and add tool-bash plus both hook bridges to the generated persistence consumer graph. Keep BashEnvRegistry.list() contributor-only for now because no production caller treats it as exhaustive, but record the built-in enumeration gap before diagnostics, prompt, or UI code depends on it.
Validated on the exact resulting tree with typecheck, lint, coverage, snapshot, documentation, module-graph, build, hygiene, demo-smoke, and built-artifact checks.
The three-entry cordis.yml (dsh-sandbox-local + dsh-bash-sandbox at a
read-only default + dsh-approval) served over ACP: the first live approval
composition. Recorded snapshot scenarios pin the wire end to end —
config-options advertisement, the mode-switching arc as the suite pinned
header (both switches, the prompt-section delta, one changed-by-the-user
notice per knob, a confined write landing under the switched mode), and
both escalation branches over scripted permissionAnswers (a grant runs
confined under workspace-write; a rejection executes nothing and pins the
fail-closed text). The with-key escalation e2e drives a real model +
real runner + the real bridge answerer, world-verified; ci.yml snapshot
lane and e2e.yml install bubblewrap so the confined replays actually
execute.
Both RFCs move to implemented/ (Decision/Consequences form, deferred
phases tracked in their own sections), with every cross-reference flipped.
dsh-bash grows the per-call policy carrier: BashExecRequest.sandboxMode
(request-optional, spec required-but-nullable — the owner pattern; resolve()
is the one explicit defaulting step) and the BashExecutor.sandboxMode
capability fact (undefined in the base class — composition truth the tool
layer can read). dsh-bash-local carries the field verbatim and confines
nothing.
dsh-bash-sandbox extends LocalBashExecutor and hands ctx.sandbox the exact
argv it is about to spawn. A denial is a RESULT FACT (the command RAN;
result.sandbox.denied is orthogonal to exitCode/signal), classified
conservatively against the wrap own dialect; a RUNNER failure outranks
denial — foreground re-throws the structured SANDBOX_UNAVAILABLE, a settled
background task stamps sandbox.runnerFailed — so a broken sandbox never
reads as a failing command and the command never runs unconfined.
dsh-tool-bash renders the markers and teaches the model not to retry around
a policy denial; escalation and per-session switching are staged follow-ups.
One shared ctx.tasks registry (branded <kind>-N ids, owner-fenced
read/kill/wait/list, attachSurface misconfiguration fence, reported-flag
notice dedup, atomic register) + dsh-tool-tasks (task_output/task_list/
task_kill, completion-notice injection, background prompt habit).
Producers opt in via their own enableRunInBackground config: bash
(stream kind; seam slimmed to resolve/run/start returning a BashProcess
handle, bash_output/bash_kill deleted) and subagent (final-output kind;
done settles after run.dispose()). Owner disposal drains tasks through
the new awaited ctx.agents.onCleanup seam in the loop's disposal chain.
Both RFCs moved to implemented/; docs, catalogs, snapshots re-pinned.
Address review: the "trusted-plugin surface" framing overstated the security
story. A model driving the `bash` tool already has equivalent power to set env
vars and feed stdin through ordinary shell syntax (`FOO=bar cmd`, heredocs), so
the `env`/`stdin` seam fields grant it no new capability — and they cannot
exfiltrate the harness's ambient credentials, because the credential SCRUB in
dsh-bash-local (which strips *KEY*/*SECRET*/*TOKEN* from process.env before the
child sees it) is the actual control, and it works regardless of these fields
(tool-call args are static JSON, never shell-evaluated).
So drop the "dangerous / trusted-plugin boundary" language across the RFC, the
three bash-package READMEs, the bash/src/types.ts JSDoc, and docs/bash.md (both
the type-equiv blocks — kept 1:1 with source — and the prose). The reality that
remains: the `bash` tool doesn't EXPOSE env/stdin as parameters because they'd
be redundant with shell syntax; the fields exist for in-process plugins (the
hooks bridges) to pass a JSON payload + CLAUDE_* vars cleanly. The guard test is
kept but reframed: it catches a future `...args` spread that would silently
forward model input into the post-scrub env merge, NOT a trust wall. No code or
behavior change.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Add a second axis to every RFC — its class (feature, bug-fix,
simplification, architecture, process, testing) — encoded in the path
as docs/rfc/{lifecycle}/{class}/file.md. The folder is the label, so
the closed set is enforced by structure rather than a parsed field.
Two new doc-sync gates back it:
- verify-rfc-classification: every RFC sits in a valid class folder and
the README index lists it under the matching lifecycle→class heading.
- verify-doc-refs: every docs/*.md path cited in a packages|examples TS
comment resolves — closes a drift class verify-md-links can't see, and
catches the four comment refs this reorg moved.
The README gains a Classification section explaining the taxonomy and
per-class index sub-sections. A self-referential process RFC records why
the scheme is path-encoded and gated.
A new docs/core-data-structures/ folder: a self-contained core.md defining what
counts as a "core" data structure (the agent-loop spine) and covering the spine
vocabulary, plus per-seam sub-pages (llm-streaming, session, persistence, tools,
bash). Type definitions are pasted verbatim via `ts type-equiv` blocks and
drift-checked by verify-type-equiv. Cross-linked from architecture.md; the
`ts type-equiv` mechanics are documented in development.md.
