Two-package capability family mirroring session-persistence/:
- dsh-settings: abstract Settings service — namespace registry with
caller-fiber effect registrations, layered resolution (schema defaults
< composition base < user document), schemastery validation,
per-namespace deep-equal commit detection, and the settings/updated
event. Boot/registration validation fails loud; provider publishes
keep last-good per namespace.
- dsh-settings-local: settings.yaml/.json provider — resolveSpec
defaulting to $DSH_HOME/settings.yaml, chokidar hot reload,
content-equality self-write suppression, atomic 0600 tmp+rename
writes, comment-preserving YAML namespace patching.
Consumers register inside ctx.inject(['settings'], …), so every
composition works unchanged without a mounted provider. Real Loader +
Include composition test proves cordis.yml boot and external-edit hot
propagation; HMR disposal test proves registry cleanup. Both packages
hold per-file 100% coverage.
Doc budgets rise 1705→1710 (AGENTS.md) and 835→845 (packages/README.md):
one structural line per file for the new package group.
Agent Note: .agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-user-settings-seam.md
Archive 21 implemented triplets whose shipped decisions are complete and
whose bodies no longer guide future work (one-off UI chrome, generator
applications whose scripts are self-explanatory, superseded implementation
detail, process history owned by current contracts/skills). Delete 4
rejected triplets whose premises are obsolete: the DeepReadonly proposal
(dev-invariants note now carries the alternative inline), the collapse
tool-owned presentation proposal (superseded by the shipped render-intent
union), retire-mid-turn-steering (steering is now load-bearing across
plan-mode/apiproxy/TUI), and single-session-ACP (automation-only ACP
resolved the question; multi-session isolation is pinned by tests).
Repair every inbound link: retarget intentional historical citations to
archived paths, replace decision-current citations with the surviving
authority, and fix the stale example-execute-over-tsx pointer in
pnpm-workspace.yaml. Re-record pairing sidecars and seal the archive
manifest (append-only; existing seals unchanged).
The group's convention is package suffix == provider default
(subagent-acp/'acp', subagent-spawn/'spawn', subagent-fork/'fork'), and the
provider default became dsh-sdk in the last review round — so the package
follows: @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-dsh-sdk at
packages/subagent/subagent-dsh-sdk, plugin name subagent-dsh-sdk,
diagnostics prefixed subagent-dsh-sdk:. The dsh echo has precedent
(dsh-llm-deepseek). Directory, fixture path, knip/tsconfig/examples
registrations, catalogs, READMEs (en+zh), and the Agent Note follow; the
sdk-client dispose ladder moves to its own module (src/dispose.ts) with the
deterministic FakeChild tier tests restored alongside it.
Master's #660 replaced dsh-subagent-subprocess with the dsh-subprocess
capability seam (ctx.subprocess + scrubbedParentEnv, tree-scoped teardown)
and moved subagent-acp onto it. Convergence for this branch's packages:
- The shared out-of-process provider vocabulary this branch had grown in
the deleted library (NO_START_CAPABILITIES, assertPositiveFinite, cwd
resolution, settleRunResult, subprocessRunHandle) moves into the subagent
seam package as out-of-process.ts — it enforces subagent-seam contracts,
not process mechanics, and both out-of-process backends now import it
from there (subagent-acp keeps master's shape otherwise).
- subagent-sdk spawns THROUGH the SDK client (the subprocess README's
documented exception for SDK-managed transports) and now applies the
seam's scrubbedParentEnv() + explicit-env merge in place of the deleted
buildChildEnv.
- sdk-client inlines the EOF→SIGTERM→SIGKILL ladder as private helpers (it
runs outside any harness context, so it cannot ride ctx.subprocess).
- The child harness fixture gains the now-required dsh-subprocess-local
entry for bash-local; the fixture cordis.yml keeps exercising the
shipped provider default.
