InferArgs now produces genuinely optional keys: required/optional
properties are split at the key level (RequiredKeys + mapped `?`), so
{ limit: { type: 'number' } } infers as { limit?: number } and callers
can omit it — previously the key stayed required with `| undefined`.
Array item inference recurses (arrays of objects infer their element
shape instead of Record<string, unknown>), matching the generated
JSON Schema.
Tool execution error reporting handles non-Error throws again:
`throw { message: 'denied' }` reports the message instead of
"[object Object]" (errorMessage helper).
The new schema tests now actually typecheck: schema literals use
`satisfies SchemaSpec` (the standalone-literal widening made
schemaSpecToJsonSchema reject the suite's own examples), and the
ToolSchema probe cast goes through unknown. Tests-and-examples
typechecking is now part of `yarn typecheck` via the new
tsconfig.typecheck.json (resolves vendor packages by their built
declarations, so vendor's relaxed-strictness source stays out of
scope) — vitest never typechecks, so this gate is what catches such
breakage. +4 regression tests (typed omission, array-of-objects
inference both type- and runtime-level, non-Error throw message).
Docs: per-folder README.md for packages/ (family overview + one per
package: service, events, API, extension points, TODOs), examples/,
and examples/echo-agent/; folder-level AGENTS.md (+ CLAUDE.md
symlinks) for packages/ and vendor/; module-level doc comments in
every packages/*/src file; richer JSDoc on all exported API
(event side effects, disposal contracts, error behavior). Root
AGENTS.md gains a "Type Safety and Documentation" policy section:
the codebase aims to be very type-safe and well documented; type
gymnastics are acceptable in core packages when they improve
plugin-author DX; verbose docs are fine as long as they stay strictly
in sync with the code.
Type safety: removed the upstream-inherited "noImplicitAny": false
from tsconfig.base.json — packages/* now compile under full strict
mode; vendor/loader and vendor/include set it locally (vendor/cordis
already did). Eliminated every `: any` / `as any` from packages and
examples (catch clauses use unknown + a CodedError narrowing type;
event data access uses discriminated-union narrowing).
Typed tool schemas: new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools schema DSL —
SchemaSpec with per-property `required: true` booleans, type-level
InferArgs<S>, a runtime SchemaSpec → JSON Schema converter, and
defineTool() so first-party tools get typed execute(args) with zero
casts (raw JSON Schema still accepted for MCP interop; chosen over
schemastery because it targets JSON Schema generation directly).
echo-tool and all test tools migrated; +7 tests.
High (loop pipeline): agent/step-result now runs before the
assistant/message append so the session log records what tool dispatch
actually uses; abort is honored between tool calls, not just
mid-stream; steering drains at step start, pending steering overrides
a negative turn-continuation decision (/goal pattern), and leftover
steering is re-enqueued as queued messages so it is never stranded;
exceptions from turn-continuation listeners and session/flush are
contained to the turn (error event + agent/error) instead of killing
the driver loop.
Medium: disposal emits agent/status('disposed') and mid-turn disposal
records reason 'disposed'; duplicate LLM adapter registration throws
(all-or-nothing); SessionEvent is a real discriminated union (casts
removed); model-less agents fail with a clear actionable error unless
agent/request supplies a model.
Low: agent/queued and agent/steering carry the resolved MessageSource;
streamBlocks() yields strictly in stream order and flushes delta-only
blocks (matches generate()); BlockAssembler freezes blocks on
block-end and ignores stragglers from malformed streams; turn
numbering is a counter seeded from the log (fork-safe); LoopAgent's
stop disposer is infallible (a throwing status listener cannot skip
registry cleanup); AgentLoop.create uses a generator effect so stop
and unregister are independent disposables; SessionStore wires
onAppend inside its effect.
21 regression tests added (review-fixes.spec.ts), organized by
finding. Docs updated: loop pseudocode (status emissions, ordering,
error containment, steering guarantees) and waterfall composition
caveat in docs/architecture.md; AGENTS.md notes that excessive tests
are welcome.
docs/architecture.md: layering, service map, event taxonomy, the
session/turn/step lifecycle, Cordis waterfall semantics, an extension
cookbook, the plugin sanity checklist mapping every MVP feature to its
extension mechanism, and the deferred-work TODO list (sub-agents,
persistence backends, compaction, DeepSeek V4 adapter, parallel tool
execution, streaming-protocol review).
AGENTS.md: repo layout, commands, conventions (dsh-* naming, ESM,
effect-based registrations, declaration merging, waterfall semantics),
and the vendoring policy pointer.
cordis.yml-wired demo proving the full stack end to end: mock-echo
LlmAdapter (streams text; calls the echo tool on "echo <text>"),
echo tool, stdio chat UI plugin (consumes only the agent/* taxonomy),
and a JSONL persistence plugin demonstrating the write-behind +
session/flush checkpoint pattern. Runs unbuilt via tsx with loader,
include, and HMR live-reload all active (yarn demo).
@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm: provider-neutral content-block vocabulary
(merge-extensible maps), raw StreamChunk protocol, ToolSchema,
abstract LlmAdapter, LlmService adapter registry, BlockAssembler.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-session: event-sourced Session (append-only log,
deriveMessages; context/steering render as tagged envelopes),
SessionStore, session/event + awaited session/flush durability seam.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-system-prompt: ordered sections + tool-schema
providers; assemble() through the system-prompt/assemble waterfall.
Tool schemas are part of the assembly by design.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools: tool registry feeding schemas into the
assembly; execute() through the tools/execute waterfall (the single
sandbox/permission/hook seam).
@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent: Agent interface (send/steer/inject/abort,
spawn/fork TODO seams), AgentRegistry, and the full agent/* event
taxonomy so plugins never depend on the concrete loop.
