The existing assertion-only executable smoke proved selected outputs but could not detect drift across the integrated Python SDK, JSON-RPC notification stream, and persisted session shape.
Keep this separate from ACP snapshots because it must launch the actual platform-native packaged executable through the Python SDK. The deterministic model drives Cordis dynamic tool mounting, a Code Mode worker dispatch, direct spawn delegation, workflow-worker delegation, plugin disposal, and the parent/child persistence lineage.
Commit four portable goldens for the SDK result and three JSONL logs. Normalize timestamps, temporary paths, opaque session and agent identifiers, and bulky request headers while retaining ordering, tool names and arguments, header deltas, results, lineage, and final responses so all native build legs compare the same behavior.
Run the comparison in the label-gated executable build workflow and document the current coverage in the paired implemented RFC.
pkg stores application files in a virtual filesystem, and its
worker_threads hook discovers worker entry points only when they are passed
as filesystem strings. Convert the code-runtime entry with fileURLToPath()
and return the workflow built entry as a string while retaining its
source-mode data URL bootstrap.
Emit worker entry bundles as CommonJS .cjs files. pkg executes a VFS-backed
string-path worker through Module._compile, so an ESM-only entry can be
present in the executable yet still fail when launched. Keep the public hosts
ESM, adapt worker startup accordingly, and align exports, package file lists,
workspace constraints, documentation, and built-worker tests with the actual
artifact format.
Expand the custom-config executable smoke to load the Code Mode and workflow
plugins and script real run_code and zero-agent workflow calls. Require both
tools to return 42 from workers launched inside the pkg VFS, turning worker
support from an asset-presence assumption into an end-to-end runtime
contract.
Update the implemented RFC and verification gates to describe and exercise
the supported built-worker path. This adds no tool or JSON-RPC protocol shape;
it fixes how existing worker-backed capabilities are located and executed in
the single-file distribution.
A preset names a bundle of the two mechanism knobs — request =
workspace-write + ask, yolo = danger-full-access + never — so the editor
shows ONE 'Permissions' select where the sandbox-mode and approval-policy
tiers stay orthogonal capabilities (the Codex /approvals shape: presets over
two dials). ctx.permission (dsh-permission) owns the config-defined table,
validates the default preset's bundle against the composed knob defaults at
load (fails loud), and writes a switch THROUGH: one log-only
permission/preset event (the audit fact reverse-mapping cannot recover —
the planned 'agent' preset shares request's knob values and differs only in
composed policy) plus each knob event via its own setter, deduped — a
net-zero switch appends nothing. Every knob consumer keeps reading its own
fold, untouched.
The current preset DERIVES from the effective knob values — the fold breaks
bundle ties, a knob state outside the table is the reserved 'custom' value
(a state, not an error: shown while it holds, switchable FROM, never a
target), and defaultPreset disappears (zero-event state reverse-maps from
the composition defaults).
The ACP bridge drops the two per-knob selects for the one preset select
(advertised only when ctx.permission is composed); pending/anchor/no-op
semantics carry over unchanged, with the no-op echo acknowledged before
vocabulary validation so a client re-pushing a derived 'custom' current
never errors. The sandbox variant example composes the
service with a workspace-write default; the permission-switching,
escalation-approved and escalation-rejected scenarios are re-recorded under
it (escalations now target an outside-workspace /tmp path under
danger-full-access, self-cleaning) and config-options is re-authored on the
single-select wire.
Make Cordis construction and teardown ownership reentrancy-safe, then carry caller and provider ownership through reservation, setup, publication, quiescence, and sentinel retirement.
Stabilize registry carriers and factory/workflow boundaries, add adversarial lifecycle regressions, and align the rewritten RFC plus generated contracts with the enforced behavior.
Every packages/*/* README now carries a canonical '## Known Limitations and
Deferred Work' section: condensed, evidence-backed bullets for consumer-visible
gaps (unimplemented features, platform caveats, MVP cuts) and consciously
postponed work (TODO/FIXME/XXX markers, RFC deferrals still open). The ten
pre-existing ad-hoc variants ('What is NOT here (TODO)', 'Deferred',
'Limitations (MVP)', 'Known limitations (tracked TODOs)', ...) are normalized
into the canonical heading.
A new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-readme-limitations.ts, enforces the shape:
exactly one limitations-like heading per package README, byte-equal to the
canonical h2, with at least one bullet; near-miss headings fail so variants
cannot creep back. Packages with genuinely nothing to declare (dsh-brand,
dsh-timeout, dsh-subagent-mock, dsh-app-boot) are whitelisted in the script and
must NOT carry the section; whitelist entries are validated against the scanned
package set so a rename fails loud.
Wired into the doc-sync chain (package.json) and the run-gates doc-sync leaf
set; the standing rule lands in packages/AGENTS.md and the adding-a-package
cookbook; decision record in
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-10-readme-known-limitations-gate.md
(RFC index regenerated).
Also fixes two stale '(deferred)' markers claiming dsh-compact-basic is
unimplemented (the dsh-compact seam README's package table and the seam's
module doc comment).
