Implements docs/rfc/.../2026-06-20-extract-example-app-packages.md. Each
example was thick — a hand-rolled start.ts, an infra preamble, nested
base.yml/base-core.yml/acp-tail.yml includes, and a coupled front-door
cluster enforced only by prose. This moves the composition into packages so
each example is a thin leaf cordis.yml: pick the swappable backends, load one
app package.
New packages:
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-core (packages/core/agent-core): one bundle plugin
that loads the providerless/executor-less/UI-less spine (timer + llm +
sessions + system-prompt + tools + agents + invariants + tool-bash +
agent-loop) via ctx.plugin(...) inside apply(), and forwards agent-loop's
`agents` list as its own Config (export const Config = AgentLoop.Config,
default []).
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent (packages/ui/stdio-agent): terminal chat APP —
agent-core + console logger + readline UI + a pre-created `main` agent, with
a bin. The demo:echo/coding front door.
- @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent (packages/ui/acp-agent): ACP server APP —
agent-core + JSONL persistence + the acp bridge, NO stdout logger, with a
bin. The stdout-purity footgun is structurally unreachable from the leaf.
Amendment to the RFC: hmr stays a LEAF cordis.yml entry, not baked into
dsh-stdio-agent. hmr is a Loader-only dev plugin (throws without
--expose-internals; the in-process test tier can't even import its decorator
form), so a package statically importing it could never carry the per-file
coverage gate. Unlike the console logger, a stray hmr is not a stdout-purity
footgun, so leaving it at the leaf costs no safety. With hmr out, all three new
packages carry in-process unit specs at 100%.
Boot glue (Loader tail, .env load, snapshot-mode selection, stdin-dispose
lifecycle) moves into each app's bin; start.ts and base.yml/base-core.yml/
acp-tail.yml are deleted. Each app package gets a keyless real-load-path test
that boots through its bin + the cordis Loader (guarding the unwrapExports
export-shape bug class, postmortem 0001). ACP snapshot replay stays green
against the existing committed goldens (pure boot restructuring). RFC moved
proposed->implemented with the amendment recorded; package/example/architecture
docs and the module graph updated.
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 bridge now holds each session's `AgentHandle` disposer in its
`SessionRecord` and runs it on teardown (client disconnect or fiber dispose)
instead of the old `abort()` + `whenIdle()` drain that left agents
registered. A bare client disconnect now leaves NO registered agent and NO
session-store entry — not an idled-but-still-registered one. The queue-aware
`cancel()` inside the disposer also closes the former pre-step best-effort
window (a turn about to start is dropped), so teardown reaches true
quiescence.
The `session/load`-races-teardown leak is fixed: if the bridge closed while
`resume()` was pending, the just-resumed handle is disposed before throwing,
so it leaves no orphan (it has no SessionRecord, so quiesce() never sees it).
Tests: the disconnect test now asserts (through the SAME memoized teardown)
that the agent is unregistered AND its session removed; a durability test
re-loads the persisted log after dispose and asserts the closing turn/end is
on disk (guards the teardown-order contract); a sibling-isolation test proves
one handle's dispose() leaves other agents untouched. Docs: agent /
agent-loop / acp READMEs, architecture.md, and the stale in-code quiesce()
ownership comment updated to the per-agent disposal model; the now-resolved
TODO(rfc010-agent-disposal) / TODO(rfc010-cancel-prestep) teardown notes
removed.
Logic that lived under examples/ was outside the per-file 100% coverage
gate (examples/ are not workspaces) and, in the stdio-UI case, duplicated
across two examples. Move it into packages/ so it is gated and de-duped.
- packages/ui-stdio (new): unify the two diverged stdio-chat.ts copies into
one @deepseek-ai/dsh-ui-stdio plugin (welcome/agent Config). A test-only
I/O seam (createStdioChat(ctx, config, runtime)) keeps process streams out
of the serializable config and makes every render/EOF/disposal branch
unit-testable. Per-file 100%. echo/coding cordis.yml now load the package;
both src/stdio-chat.ts deleted.
- packages/llm-replay (new): move examples/acp-agent/src/llm-replay.ts (+ its
spec) here so its derive/parse/replay branches fall under the coverage gate.
cordis.snapshot.yml + README rewired to the package name; added apply/env
/assertNever/abort tests to reach per-file 100%.
- examples/{echo,coding}-agent: keyless Loader-path e2e smokes that boot the
real cordis.yml (no key) — the guard a hand-mounted unit test cannot be for
the unwrapExports/export-shape class (postmortem 0001). examples/AGENTS.md
codifies the keyless+with-key smoke convention (keyless-by-nature exception
for echo-agent).
- AGENTS.md: a scoped, removal-triggered pre-release stance (foundation over
blast radius). packages/README.md: new rows + a FIXME to later regroup ALL
packages into a hierarchy. Wiring: tsconfig paths/refs, publint, knip,
module-graph.
Verified: typecheck, lint, test:coverage (887 tests, 100%), build, hygiene,
doc-sync, test:snapshot (10), test:e2e (6 keyless pass, with-key self-skip).
Rename the concrete Agent class to make its ReAct-style reasoning loop
explicit in the name. Package name, default-export plugin (`AgentLoop`),
and the `ctx.agentLoop` service key are unchanged.
A config agent with `resumeSessionId` set continues a persisted session
instead of starting a fresh `${id}-session-<uuid>`. The id is sourced from
an env var in cordis.yml, so the coding-agent demo can resume a prior
conversation without code changes. The resume is deferred until the
`sessionPersistence` backend loads (via ctx.inject) and is contained: a
missing/unreadable id logs a warning and starts no agent. Adds a real-API
resume e2e proving cross-process continuity through the JSONL backend.
Implements the RFC 010 MVP: a new `@deepseek-ai/dsh-acp` package bridges the
harness agent to the Agent Client Protocol (JSON-RPC 2.0 over newline-delimited
stdio), so Zed and other ACP editors can drive the coding agent — streaming
render, tool-call display, and resumable sessions via `session/load`.
- packages/acp: AgentSideConnection wiring; initialize/newSession/loadSession/
prompt/cancel; a total TurnEndReason→StopReason codec; settle-once with a
fallback chain (agent/turn-end → logged turn/end → idle); single-session
guard; cwd-must-equal-launch-dir validation; load replays from the persisted
event log (assistant/chunk→agent_message_chunk, tool/call/result→tool_call*).
- agent: add Agent.whenIdle() quiescence signal to the interface; LoopAgent
implements it (resolves on the first running→idle/disposed transition). The
bridge awaits it on disposal so teardown reaches quiescence, not just abort.
- examples: extract the shared provider/tool core into examples/base.yml;
coding-agent nest-includes it; new examples/acp-agent serves the agent over
ACP with JSONL persistence and no stdout logger (stdout is the protocol).
- Permission gate deferred (TODO(rfc010-permission-gate)): tools run with the
executor's full authority; only the Agent→sessionId ownership seam is laid
down. Cancel is best-effort for a not-yet-started queued turn
(TODO(rfc010-cancel-prestep)). RFC 010 stays `proposed`.
- Docs: package README + Zed snippet; client-driver cookbook section; root and
packages layout/commands; RFC 010 implementation-status note.
48 bridge tests + whenIdle coverage; 100% per-file coverage; e2e boots the
example as a subprocess and verifies a written file on disk (key-gated, with a
no-key stdout-purity check).
Add the durable session-persistence capability seam (ADR 0016): an
abstract SessionPersistence service (dsh-session-persistence,
ctx.sessionPersistence) defining create/append/load/list/has/delete/
update over the existing SessionEvent — no parallel persisted type — and
a first implementation (dsh-session-persistence-jsonl): an append-only
JSONL log per session with crash-safe atomic writes, truncation-repair
of a never-committed crash tail, and a read/replay path. SessionMeta
(format version, cwd, lineage) travels out-of-log via session.header.
A shared runPersistenceContract suite holds every backend to the same
append-only / contiguous-seq / lazy-materialization / serializability
semantics.
Config-driven create() now uses a per-run ${id}-session-<uuid> session
id so a fixed name no longer collides with an on-disk log once a durable
backend is loaded; each run is a new session (a demo simplification). The
examples drop their hand-rolled session-jsonl.ts and load the JSONL
backend via cordis.yml; CI smoke-loads it too.
The agent-facing create/resume factory that consumes load() is a
separate seam, deferred to a follow-up; this change stops at the load
primitive and does not reach into the loop.
New @deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants plugin (pure listeners, off in prod) asserts
the event taxonomy at runtime — seq monotonicity, turn/step nesting, a
tool/result needs a prior tool/call (NOT the converse), legal agent/status
transitions — and deep-freezes logged event data so mutating history throws.
Seeded sessions are checked + frozen on session/created.
The real RFC 008 fix is always-on: deriveMessages now structured-clones the
content it emits, so the loop's sanctioned request/adapter mutation can no
longer reach back and rewrite the append-only log. The pervasive
DeepReadonly<T> type flip is rejected (compile-only, high-noise, castable) —
recorded in ADR 0012, which folds in RFC 008. Wired into both demos.
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.
The first real agent wiring: DeepSeek V4 + the bash tool suite + stdio
chat + JSONL persistence, runnable via yarn demo:coding (reads the
gitignored repo-root .env through process.loadEnvFile).
- examples/coding-agent: cordis.yml wiring both real plugin families
(llm-deepseek with !!js env secrets; bash-local + tool-bash), a
bash-only coding system prompt, a max-steps-guard plugin (bounds
runaway turns via the agent/turn-continuation waterfall — abort()
from step-end is a no-op by then), and a stdio UI with dimmed
reasoning and exit-on-idle for piped stdin.
- e2e (yarn test:e2e, key-gated): full-loop.e2e.ts runs a real model
against the real bash tool; coding-task.e2e.ts is the swebench-style
smoke — the model fixes a buggy add.js in a temp dir and the test
re-runs node add.test.js itself rather than trusting the agent.
- docs/cookbook: adding-a-package (the verified checklist),
adding-a-tool (execute() contract, background pattern, seams),
adding-an-llm-adapter (protocol obligations, mock-server testing,
e2e policy). AGENTS.md layout/commands/secrets sections updated;
architecture.md points at both examples and the cookbook.
- vitest.e2e.config.ts: serialize test files + retry twice — parallel
e2e files trip the shared internal key's concurrency quota.
- fix: the !js YAML tag spelling in docs/JSDoc is actually !!js
(js-yaml resolves custom tags under tag:yaml.org,2002:js).
