The master merge moved the TUI composition into `apps/cli/config/base.cordis.yml`
and I carried the `settings-local` / `credentials-local` rows across without
adding them to the resolver manifest. Bare specifiers in an app config resolve
through that manifest's dependencies, so the whole tree failed to boot:
dsh: plugin(s) failed to load: @deepseek-ai/dsh-settings-local,
@deepseek-ai/dsh-credentials-local
which took every TUI PTY smoke with it. `verify-cordis-config` did not catch
it, so the boot smoke was the first signal.
Both provider READMEs state what actually holds: credentials-local now
documents the physical-line editor, the read-modify-write under the
writer lock, and a Security boundary section saying plainly that the file
mode stops other OS users and not the model. sandbox-policy documents
readDenyPaths and its per-backend enforcement. The llm READMEs carry the
registration handle, pi-ai's credential-miss semantics, and DeepSeek's
same-generation snapshot; app-boot and the CLI README stop describing
$DSH_HOME/.env as an environment layer.
A new Agent Note records the round (and the prior seam note cross-links
it); the sandbox and core catalog pages gain readDenyPaths and
AdapterRegistrationHandle with their manifest entries. The headless
missing-credential snapshot re-records for the reworded guidance, pi-ai
gains the Loader-composition guard its twin already had, and the
deliberate provider symmetry is marked for the clone detector.
The shipped surfaces loaded the harness home's .env into the process
environment before cordis booted. credentials-local then saw every stored
key as an ambient launch override: describe reported source 'env' with
writable false, and set/unset rejected as shadowed — so a key the web page
or TUI stored was unrotatable and undeletable from the next run onward,
and the adapter kept using the value captured at launch.
The home's .env is now the credential provider's own store, read by that
provider alone and hot-reloaded by it. The genuine launch environment and
the invoking directory's .env (loaded by the bin) remain the read-only
ambient layer, so a plain composition without the provider still resolves
keys exactly as before.
Proven by a real restart in the loader composition: store a key through
the seam, dispose the tree, re-boot over the same harness home, and the
entry is still file-sourced and writable — rotating it lands on the very
next request.
Conflict resolutions:
- `session.list`: master's projection columns fold into the PR's cancellable,
batched `listVisibleSessionSummaries`, which `session.search` shares as its
visibility baseline; master's goal helpers stay beside it.
- Client sessions face: master narrowed `ctx.sessions` to `ISessions`, so the
search verb and its protocol-constant bound are declared there and the
test-runtime double implements them (recorded, empty page unless a scenario
stubs hits).
- `WorkspaceBrowser`: master's per-row Rename wiring rides the PR's search
results view; the tree keeps the PR's query-free derivations.
- `dsh web` bin: the PR's shutdown-handlers-before-readiness order with
master's boot-time LAN address snapshot.
- `session-query-sqlite`: master's `SCHEMA_VERSION` 7 stands; the PR's bump
carried no schema change.
- Specs: master wraps assistant/steering message payloads and requires an
`application/json` carrier request, so the search fixtures and tests follow.
- Web aria goldens keep master's recording plus the PR's search placeholder;
the navigation-panes inventory keeps master's terminal-card golden next to
the PR's search-results golden.
The Loader resolves each config row against the composing app, so moving the
TUI composition from examples/ into apps/cli left eleven rows unresolvable from
the built bin: `node apps/cli/lib/bin.js` died at boot with "plugin(s) failed to
load". Source-mode runs hid it, because tsconfig paths resolve the whole
workspace regardless of who declares what.
Also declares `dsh-llm-pi-ai` and `dsh-tmux-context`, which a personal
`~/.dsh/config.yaml` inserts to swap the model adapter. Those previously
resolved only because the config lived under examples/, whose package.json
declares the union of every leaf's plugins.
Caught by running the built bin from a scratch directory, which is how a user
actually starts it.
`dsh` shipped two config trees that were 43 rows the same: apps/cli/cordis.yml
composed web as 74 flat rows, while the TUI booted examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml
whose single `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tui-demo` row mounted twelve plugins behind a
twenty-key pass-through Config. Neither file was what its location claimed —
apps/cli hardcoded the "example" as the product default and the "demo" bundle
was the application — and every capability change had to be made twice.
- apps/cli/base.cordis.yml holds the 43 shared rows; tui.cordis.yml and
web.cordis.yml are patch lists stating only what differs per surface
- overlays apply as SIBLING patch lists at one include level, because include
patches never cross an include boundary. Precedence: base < surface <
(--config | personal ~/.dsh/config.yaml) < launcher flag/profile patches
- `--config` now applies an overlay INSTEAD OF the personal one, so a demo or
test tree never inherits the user's route; new `--config-replace` boots a file
as the entire tree (the old `--config` behaviour). Both survive /resume
- vendor/include: index each `insert`ed row as it is added so a later patch can
configure or disable it. Upstream built the id index once before the patch
loop, leaving every surface-only row — the whole TUI front door — silently
unpatchable from user config. Logged as local modification 8
- session identity moves to dsh-agent-loop's CONFIGURED_AGENT_IDENTITIES_KEY;
dsh-tui's MAIN_SESSION_ID_KEY is deleted (only the bundle read it)
- delete examples/tui-agent, examples/cordis-agent, packages/examples/tui-demo;
TUI tests → apps/cli/tests, cordis e2e → packages/cordis/tool-cordis/tests,
examples/code-mode survives as an overlay leaf
- `dsh web` gains --config, threaded into AppCLIEntry as an extra overlay
Three latent defects surfaced and are fixed here: the TUI captured the optional
sessionQuery service once at construction and could permanently disable /resume
when it won the mount race; the session-store root silently reverted to a
project-local ./.sessions; --config-replace was dropped by the resume handoff.
Verified by booting each tree through the real Loader (TUI 55 entries, web 75,
zero unsettled) rather than reading YAML. All eight terminal snapshots replay
byte-identically; 14/14 PTY smoke, 112/112 snapshots, 25/25 doc-sync, hygiene
and lint clean.
