Address review on the bridges: - Hook cwd (blocking): the bridges never passed a workdir to runHook, so hooks ran in the executor default (the ACP server launch dir), not the session cwd — a hook doing `pwd`/relative reads/marker writes operated in the wrong tree. Both bridges now thread the agent's session `header.cwd` (the session/new.cwd) as the hook workdir for agent-scoped points. Regression per bridge: server cwd ≠ session cwd, a `pwd` hook proves it ran in the session workspace (proven red without the workdir). - Example config honesty (blocking): `configPath: ./hooks.json` is read ONCE at load against the PROCESS cwd, not per-session — the comment/README now say so explicitly (a project-local per-session hooks.json is not discovered; TODO(per-session-hook-config)). The hooks-run-in-session-cwd fix above is the distinct, separately-documented half. - Session-start timing (blocking): agent/session-start is a synchronous emit and the hook runs on a detached .then, so injected context is BEST-EFFORT — not guaranteed before the first request. Downgrade the contract in code comments + README + RFC (TODO(session-start-gating)) rather than implying "first request sees it", and add a no-wait regression that asserts the safe properties without pre-waiting for the inject. - systemMessage (non-blocking): the merge collects merged.systemMessages but no bridge surfaced it. Warn per hook (like updatedInput) and document it as deferred in both READMEs + the RFC; tests assert the warn + non-surfacing.
Examples
Runnable demos (not workspaces) that showcase how the harness is wired. Each example is now a thin leaf: a cordis.yml that picks the swappable backends (an LLM adapter, a bash executor), loads ONE app package, and may add optional product tools or demo-only mocks. The composition — the spine, the front-door cluster, and the boot glue — lives in the app packages (@deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent, @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent) and the @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-core bundle they share. There is no start.ts; the demo:* scripts invoke each app package's bin.
echo-agent
A mock model + echo tool on the stdio chat app — the all-mock skeleton. The leaf swaps dsh-stdio-agent's LLM backend to a local mock-echo adapter and adds a local echo tool. Demonstrates:
- A thin leaf
cordis.ymlloading the@deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agentapp - Registering a mock
LlmAdapter(streaming scripted responses) - Registering a tool via
ctx.tools.register() - "Swap the backend, keep the app" — the only difference from
coding-agentis the adapter
Run with: pnpm run demo:echo. When prompted, type "echo " to trigger a tool call round-trip.
coding-agent
The real thing: DeepSeek V4 + the bash tool suite, subagent delegation, and the todo_write task tracker on the same @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent app. Where echo-agent proves the skeleton with mocks, this is a usable coding assistant.
Run with: pnpm run demo:coding (needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the environment or a gitignored repo-root .env). See coding-agent/README.md for details.
acp-agent
The same coding agent exposed as an Agent Client Protocol (ACP) server over JSON-RPC stdio, via the @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent app — drive it from Zed or any other ACP client. Also the home of the keyless snapshot tests.
Run with: pnpm run demo:acp (needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY). See acp-agent/README.md for the Zed setup and the snapshot-test design.
