Replaces the patch round trip. An app's entrypoint resolves the command
line into a service, and the rows it configures read that service from
their own config — port: !!js ctx.get('webStartup')?.port ?? 3080 — so the
resolved value beats the value written beside it and nothing is written
back into a row or handed to the launcher.
A bundle names the entrypoint row in its manifest (dsh.bundle.entrypoint),
which is what lets the boot mount in two passes: entrypoints alone, then
the whole composition. That ordering is required, not cosmetic — a row's
config expressions are evaluated when the include applies the row, and a
strict ctx.get only answers for a service whose providing fiber is already
active.
What this removes: ctx.appPatches and the launcher-owned patch layer, the
disable/re-enable recycle and its in-flight-mount barrier, overrideConfig,
and the reload hazard they existed for. A live config edit now re-applies
the second pass against services that are still up, so a served port
survives by construction.
What it adds: ctx.appReady, because Loader settlement no longer means the
app is up — a row mounted in the second pass can observe a settled tree
while that pass is still running, or already rolling back. The web URL line
waits for it, so a boot that fails in the second pass announces nothing.
The Agent Note keeps the three vendored-Loader facts the mechanism turns on
— a row's config is resolved and validated when its fiber is created, while
it is still waiting; an inject update loses the plugin's static injections;
a row cannot be inserted from inside a mounting plugin — with the
alternatives they ruled out.
Launcher flags come first and end at the first token dsh does not
recognize; everything after reaches the booted app verbatim, so
dsh --profile tui --resume <id> works with no launcher change and
dsh --profile web --help prints the web app's help. A bare dsh -h, which
has no app to hand the flag to, still prints the launcher's own.
src/web.ts is deleted: the Web flag family, its LAN-trust sampling, and the
one-shot task positional now live in their bundles, and runProfile no
longer knows any row id. What the startup row decides comes back as a
launcher-owned patch layer above every layer a user can edit, so a live
config edit recomposes the tree without resetting a served port.
dsh web and dsh --profile web finally boot through one path, which also
gives --profile web the harness-source prompt section that only the alias
used to add.
dsh-web-app owns --host/--port/--dev/--workspace-root/--trusted-host and
its --help in a web-startup row; the rows it configures wait for the
webStartup service, and the client-plugin HMR receiver now ships disabled
so --dev is a row toggle rather than a runtime insert (the Loader cannot
resolve a row inserted from inside a mounting plugin).
dsh-headless owns the task positional and rejects a missing task as its own
usage error. Its runner ships disabled, not merely waiting: the schema
requires the task, and a row's config is validated when its fiber is
created, before the startup row can supply one. A composition has exactly
one command-line owner, so the patch disables the web startup row and this
one provides webStartup too, leaving the web rows on their composed
one-shot values.
The keyless web scaffold provides the same three values with no arguments,
which is what an embedding host with no command line does.
A launcher provides three values before the tree mounts: ctx.cmdlineArgs
(get() is the whole interface) carrying everything after its own flags,
ctx.appExit for a bounded exit, and ctx.appPatches for decisions a later
recomposition must keep. An app's startup row injects cmdlineArgs and calls
runStartup() with its own commander program.
Rows the app configures inject its startup service, so they wait until the
startup row has resolved their values and provided it; --help prints,
disables those rows, and exits without the app ever starting.
A changed row is recycled — disabled, then re-enabled with its new values —
because a row's config is resolved when the Loader creates its fiber, while
the row is still waiting. Recycling never touches inject: an inject update
restarts the row from its unwrapped callback and loses the plugin's own
static injections. A mount still in flight is allowed to settle first, so
the disable has a fiber to dispose instead of racing one into existence.
The profile rework left references to the old entry modes behind. Renames
the user patch-layer API and its spec file (watchPersonalPatches ->
watchUserPatches, personal-config.spec.ts -> user-patches.spec.ts) and
retargets the prose that still named `config.yaml`, `--config`, raw-config
mode, and surface overlays: repository-plugin and mcp-memory READMEs, the
credentials-local anchor into app-boot, vendor manifest items 12-13, the
vendored include/hmr comments, and install.sh.
Restores the boot-failure guard the rework dropped with raw mode: the
built-bin case now boots `--profile web --patch <invalid>` and asserts the
settled diagnostic and exit 1, so the HMR initial-scan deadlock stays
covered; its orphaned raw fixture is renamed and the unused one deleted.
The superseded personal-config Agent Note and its superseding profile note
are now cross-linked.
Adds docs/user/develop/basic/publish.md (+ zh pair, website entry) to the
basics path: the bundle-vs-profile manifest split, dsh plugin add into a
profile, the five-layer loading order, and the GitHub-install build-script
catch — git specs ship sources, so the author owns a self-contained prepare
script and the user owns an allowBuilds allowance that is install-time code
execution; built tarballs and npm need neither.
A profile manifest and a bundle manifest are different kinds and shared one
flat `dsh` section: `dsh.plugins` listed bundles (not plugins) and `dsh.patch`
declared a bundle's layer. Each kind now names its role — a bundle declares
`dsh.bundle.patch`, a profile declares `dsh.profile.bundles` — so a
package.json states which role it plays and the list name matches its contents.
`DEFAULT_PROFILE_PLUGINS` becomes `DEFAULT_PROFILE_BUNDLES`, and
`DshManifestSection` splits into `DshBundleManifest`/`DshProfileManifest`.
Pre-release: no compatibility shim; turtle-ui moved with it (bd5ff10).
- Relative path specs (., ../plugin, file:/link: forms) anchor to the
invoking directory before forwarding: pnpm's cwd is the profile dir, so a
bare 'add .' from a plugin checkout used to self-link the profile (exit 0,
nothing installed). Bare paths stay bare and prefixed specs keep their
prefix, preserving pnpm's link-vs-copy semantics.
- dsh.plugins reconciles against the INSTALLED state on every successful
pnpm run, not the dependency diff: an update whose new version gains
dsh.patch activates the layer; a version that drops it (or a removal)
deactivates it. Template bundles are never touched.
- A failed pnpm run now names the profile directory, and a git-spec failure
explains pnpm >=10's prepare-script block with a pointer at the profile's
pnpm-workspace.yaml allowBuilds (turtle-ui's prepare-based git install is
the reference consumer); reference README documents all three.
The old $DSH_HOME/config.yaml personal overlay returns under the profile
scheme's filename: machine-local preferences that apply to every profile,
loaded after the profile's own cordis.patch.yml (so the home layer outranks
it) and before --patch overlays and flag patches. Both user layers are
hot-reloaded on long-lived surfaces and shown in --dump-config with their
own provenance labels; the built-bin e2e covers the home layer landing live.
- composeProfile keeps layers as bundle/user/overlay+flags segments instead
of one flat list later re-sliced by index arithmetic; the row index drops
the group-walk (profile trees are flat patch compositions) and the double
composition.
- The config dump anchors on the profile's real empty root (written by the
shared prepareProfile) instead of materializing a temp file, so dump and
boot compose over the identical base by construction.
- dsh-base drops its patchPath export: the dsh.patch manifest field is the
one contract; the package carries no runtime API.
- packageDirFromAnchor is paths-probe only (the require.resolve fast path
duplicated the probe's outcome); basename() replaces hand-rolled path
splitting; verify-cordis-config stops re-reading bundle manifests in-loop.
- Clone patch lists per generation (boot + composeLive): the include pushes
insert rows by reference and mutates them in place, so a reused object
baked user overrides into bundle rows and removal could not revert; the
built-bin hot-reload e2e now asserts an override AND its removal reverting.
- The headless runner awaits Loader settlement before prompting (its inject
gate covers only apiProxy/httpServer) and abandons cleanly when the tree
died during the wait.
- healProfilesModuleFallback walks the app's full dependency+peer closure:
out-of-tree plugins import seam packages (dsh-compact, dsh-subprocess, ...)
that only implementations reach, and peers are how seams are declared.
- Profile init writes pnpm-workspace.yaml (nodeLinker: hoisted), not .npmrc
— pnpm >=10 reads settings from the workspace manifest.
- Web dumps reject boot-only flags instead of printing a tree that differs
from the same invocation's boot; --port validates at the flag;
--dump-default-config no longer parses the (possibly broken) user layer;
trustedHosts flag derivation merges over the composed value instead of
replacing it; web-runtime gains surfaceContext (headless disables the GUI
prompt/bash-vars the old -p never mounted); 'node_modules' is a reserved
profile name; plugin-warning names the recovery step; client AGENTS.md
registration surfaces point at the web-app bundle.
- Ship session-reference/tmux-context/tool-ask-user as app dependencies for
terminal front-door patch layers (turtle-ui), same stance as mcp-client.
A custom profile that mounts no telemetry-otel row exports nothing, so
DSH_TELEMETRY_DISABLED must not fail its boot (CI exports the switch
globally, which broke the lifecycle-fixture profile). The web-app dist
resolution test accepts the fail-loud unbuilt outcome the CI coverage lane
sees before any build, and the headless spec covers the idle-anchor and
pre-start skip branches under the per-file gate.
Update every doc referencing base.cordis.yml/web.cordis.yml, --config, -p, or
$DSH_HOME/config.yaml to the profile vocabulary with bilingual counterparts
re-recorded; regenerate the catalogs and graphs; add the
profile-plugin-bundles Agent Note recording the design and its rejected
alternatives.
dsh --profile <name> replaces the fixed entry modes: --config and -p are
removed, --patch adds overlays over the composed profile, a positional task
selects one-shot mode (requires the headless-runner row), and dsh web stays as
the alias for --profile web carrying the Web flag family as patches. dsh
plugin --profile <name> forwards verbatim to pnpm in the profile directory,
initializes on first use, and reconciles the dsh.plugins layer list after
add/remove (patch-less packages warn and stay plain dependencies). Config
dumps and the keyless web e2e scaffold compose the same bundle layers over the
same empty root as the boot.
Profiles live at $DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>: a package.json with pnpm-managed
out-of-tree dependencies plus the ordered dsh.plugins bundle list, and a user
cordis.patch.yml layer. Bundles resolve installation-first, then
profile-local; composeEntries applies layers over an empty root through the
include's own applyEntryPatches; healProfilesModuleFallback maintains the flat
profiles/node_modules symlink surface so bare plugin names resolve from any
profile. The personal-overlay machinery ($DSH_HOME/config.yaml) is retargeted
to per-profile patch files: loadPersonalPatches becomes loadOptionalPatches
and watchPersonalPatches takes the exact filename.
Profile bundles are npm packages declaring dsh.patch in their manifest:
dsh-base carries the former base.cordis.yml rows as one insert over the empty
profile root; dsh-web-app carries the web overlay plus a runtime glue plugin
owning what used to be launcher code (frontend dist resolution via
frontend-static, the web-surface prompt section, bash runtime variables, the
readiness-gated URL line); dsh-headless carries the one-shot runner driving a
task turn through the in-process API carrier under the launcher-provided
ctx.headlessIo seam.
The webserver's built-in static dist serving becomes a single-owner fallback
seat (registerFallback/applyIndexTaps); the SPA server moves to the new
@deepseek-ai/dsh-frontend-static plugin so the composing application owns its
dist as composition, not carrier config. distIndex leaves the webserver
schema; unclaimed fallback answers 404.
