`session.create` takes an optional `agentPreset`, and the host resolves it,
mounts it during pre-publication setup, and records the resolved id on the
session header so a later resume rebuilds the same agent.
Resolution happens BEFORE the session exists, not inside setup: the session
boundary snapshots `meta` before asynchronous setup begins, so an id discovered
during setup could never reach the header. Mounting still happens in setup,
where a failure rolls the whole creation back rather than publishing a session
whose capabilities are half-installed.
Resume ignores whatever the request names and rebuilds from the stored id. A
resumed session's history was produced under that composition; restoring a
different one would replay tool calls the model can no longer make.
`dsh-agent-presets` now throws `UnknownPresetError` / `PresetMountError` so
the host can tell a bad request from a broken preset — they become
`agent-preset-not-found` and `agent-preset-invalid`.
Ships the two built-in compositions (`standard`, `core-web`) and the persona
row that lets them differ in identity. Nothing mounts them yet: no roster is
configured, so `composeAgent` finds no service and every session keeps the host
composition. Wiring the roster and moving base's agent-plane rows behind it is
the next commit, so the switch happens atomically with a real-composition test.
`dsh-system-prompt` owns the deployment persona as its own config and registers
that section unconditionally, so a process has exactly one. An agent preset
cannot mount the prompt registry itself, which means that without a row of its
own a preset could change an agent's tools but never its identity — and a
roster of presets that all sound the same is not worth having.
The row is scope-only by construction: mounted outside an agent scope it
collides with the registry's own `deployment:persona` registration and fails
loud. That is the correct shape rather than a gap, because the unscoped slot
already has an owner and this row exists to shadow it for one agent.
Two behaviours are pinned by test because both read the other way at a glance:
an empty persona still occupies the slot (shadowing the deployment persona away
entirely, then disappearing at render), and `assemble()` keeps section text
uninterpolated — `renderPrompt()` is the stage that resolves `{{…}}`.
Records are pruned by observation rather than by a disposal hook, for the
reason the module already states: three different owners can tear a
subtree down, and a cleared `uid` is what they share. That leaves the
pruning to whoever reads — and the only production reader is the
invariant companion, whose package is a development composition a
shipped host never loads.
So a live host pruned nothing: every session ever composed left a record
retaining its whole disposed subtree, since the fiber holds its config
and that config is the key its EntryTree is stored under.
Prune on the mount path too. Every session takes it, which bounds the
set at one generation of dead records instead of one per session.
A preset is a directory holding one `agent.cordis.yml`. Mounting it under an
agent's scope context during `setup(agentCtx)` gives that one session its own
tools and prompt sections while every other live session keeps its own.
No registry gains a tier. `dsh-tools` and `dsh-system-prompt` already file
registrations into the calling context's scope layer, and entry contexts chain
to the context a subtree was plugged into, so a composition mounted under
`agent.ctx` is that agent's alone and unwinds with it.
The mount audits itself because a directly-plugged subtree is absent from
`ctx.loader.entries()` and no boot audit covers it. It rejects an unscoped
target, a row that never became usable, and a row that published a service into
the root service realm — that last one is process-global rather than
per-session, and its collision with the next session surfaces as an unhandled
rejection `setup` never observes, leaving a half-composed agent that looks
healthy. The package invariant re-checks that rule on every service
notification, since a row publishing from a timer would escape a one-shot audit.
Raises the `packages/README.md` word ceiling from 920 to 980: the group table
must enumerate every group, and the new `preset/` row is necessary content.
Design: .agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-08-03-per-session-agent-presets.md
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).
Address review feedback on PR #1738:
- ReactLoopAgent builds its AgentEventDispatch once in the constructor and
routes every emit/serial/waterfall through it, so hot-path dispatches no
longer allocate a carrier and dispatcher per call; the public carrier
field is gone (fused dispatcher is private).
- agentEvents accepts an optional prebuilt carrier.
- The fused payload builder spreads the payload before the injected agent
so a structurally acceptable payload carrying an agent field can never
override the subject.
- Regenerate doc graphs; re-record core + architecture + affected Agent
Note translation pairs; add payload-object event contract Agent Note.
Regenerate persistence catalog (types.ts line drift from retired
PreStepContext/RequestFailureContext) and drop the retired PreStepContext
entry from the type-equiv manifest.
All agent/* and agent-loop/config-start-failed events take one payload
object carrying the agent subject; waterfall/serial payloads require a
signal and keep next as the final argument. PreStepContext and
RequestFailureContext are unfolded into payloads and retired.
goal/changed follows the same shape so agentEvents keeps its listener
error containment. ReactLoopAgent builds its scope carrier once in the
constructor. Regenerates scope resolvers, tool-cordis api catalog, and
docs catalogs; updates all affected listeners, tests, and the
core-data-structures docs (en + zh).
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.
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.
The contextBreakdown and contextPressure units carried the full priced
surface, so each session's persisted projection checkpoint grew without
bound. A surface replacement is now priced by the shadow-price event
logged directly before it — compact/summary for compaction, the new
compact/prune from tool-result pruning (priced through the injected
token meter) — and the unit states shrink to a fixed handful of numbers.
Regenerate the persistence/cordis/module/config catalogs.
llm.discoverModels was reachable from any declared trusted host. The
method takes a caller-supplied baseURL and makes the host issue a GET to
it, then reports the status or the parsed body — so on a LAN deployment
an anonymous caller had a probe for whatever the host can reach and the
browser cannot, plus a path that carries a draft credential. The
PRIVILEGED_METHODS doc already states the rule this broke: trustedHosts
is a DNS-rebinding fence, not authentication, so the configuration plane
stays loopback-same-origin. It is in that set now, asserted both against
the hand-built fence and over real HTTP beside the catalog reads that
deliberately stay reachable.
supportsDiscovery and listModelDiscoveryNamespaces are gone. The field
was required on the wire and read by nobody: its own contract said a
surface should offer the action "instead of naming an adapter family it
would have to hardcode", while the surface hardcodes llm-pi-ai in two
places and gates the button on whether there is anything to probe. Its
shape did not fit the second caller either — the create card has no row
to read a per-row field from. Keeping a required field alive for a
consumer that may never arrive costs every producer and fixture a value
nobody consults, which is exactly how the fixtures drifted. The registry
that fed it had no other production consumer, so registration and
disposal are now observed through the offer itself.
The Agent Note claimed the key is never logged, which the wire schema
beside it already contradicts, and predated both the provider field and
the catalog-answer path. The two new public types pointed at core.md
without a type-equiv block or manifest entry, so the generated service
catalog named documentation that did not exist.
Clicking "fetch available models" on a built-in provider went to the
network. That is the wrong source: pi-ai's registry is the authoritative
list for its own providers, and it carries the context windows and output
caps a `GET /models` listing does not disclose. Asking api.deepseek.com
what DeepSeek serves is both slower and worse, and against an endpoint
that answers a different shape it failed outright.
Interrogation is still keyed by settings namespace — the provider being
added has no route — but the request may now name the route it is
editing. An adapter that already describes that route answers from what
it knows, needs no endpoint at all, and never touches the network; only a
route the catalog does not describe reaches the wire, and one naming no
endpoint is told to set one or enter its models by hand.
`ConfigurableProviderView` gained `supportsDiscovery` so a surface offers
the action where a namespace can answer instead of hardcoding an adapter
family.
Three narrower corrections ride along. Discovery no longer claims Azure
or Codex: Azure authenticates with an `api-key` header and an
`api-version` query despite its OpenAI lineage, and Codex uses OAuth, so
both reported an authentication failure as a provider with no models.
Cancellation during the body read escaped as the raw abort reason rather
than a coded ABORTED. And the schema comment claiming the probe key is
never logged overstated it: the host neither stores nor returns it, but
it rides the client's outgoing envelope like every other secret-bearing
payload, and redacting that tap is a configuration-plane-wide change.
Once a pi-ai route became a declaration rather than a catalog lookup,
adding an OpenAI-compatible gateway meant knowing its model ids up
front. Most such endpoints publish that list at `GET /models`, but no
seam operation could ask: every one is keyed by a registered provider
route, and the provider being added has no route, no stored profile,
and no stored credential — the endpoint and key are values in a form.
Interrogation is therefore keyed by settings namespace, which a
configuration surface already holds from the configurable-provider
directory. `registerModelDiscovery` offers it per namespace,
`discoverModels` asks, and the request carries the draft itself. The
reply is candidates, not a catalog: every field but the id is optional
because most listings disclose nothing else, and adopting one is a
settings write like any other. Nothing here reads or writes settings or
credentials, so `settings.yaml` still decides what a route serves.
`llm.discoverModels` carries the same draft over the wire. Its apiKey is
the third and last payload a secret may ride, and it is never stored,
logged, or echoed; every refusal folds into `model-discovery-failed`,
naming the endpoint asked but never the credential offered.
The pi-ai side is a plain GET for OpenAI-compatible protocols only —
their listing shape is the one gateways, self-hosted servers, and the
official endpoints agree on. Others say so, sending the user to
hand-entry rather than reporting a guessed shape as an empty provider.
The reply is read under a four-megabyte ceiling held on the bytes
actually received, because the endpoint is a URL the user typed.
