Add the durable session-persistence capability seam (ADR 0016): an
abstract SessionPersistence service (dsh-session-persistence,
ctx.sessionPersistence) defining create/append/load/list/has/delete/
update over the existing SessionEvent — no parallel persisted type — and
a first implementation (dsh-session-persistence-jsonl): an append-only
JSONL log per session with crash-safe atomic writes, truncation-repair
of a never-committed crash tail, and a read/replay path. SessionMeta
(format version, cwd, lineage) travels out-of-log via session.header.
A shared runPersistenceContract suite holds every backend to the same
append-only / contiguous-seq / lazy-materialization / serializability
semantics.
Config-driven create() now uses a per-run ${id}-session-<uuid> session
id so a fixed name no longer collides with an on-disk log once a durable
backend is loaded; each run is a new session (a demo simplification). The
examples drop their hand-rolled session-jsonl.ts and load the JSONL
backend via cordis.yml; CI smoke-loads it too.
The agent-facing create/resume factory that consumes load() is a
separate seam, deferred to a follow-up; this change stops at the load
primitive and does not reach into the loop.
Examples
Runnable demos (not workspaces) that showcase how the harness is wired.
echo-agent
A mock model + echo tool + stdio UI + JSONL persistence demo. Demonstrates:
- Loading plugins from a
cordis.ymlvia@cordisjs/plugin-loader+@cordisjs/plugin-include - Registering a mock
LlmAdapter(streaming scripted responses) - Registering a tool via
ctx.tools.register() - Persisting session events to JSONL via the
session/event+session/flushpattern - A minimal stdio UI consuming
agent/stream-chunkand session events
Run with: yarn demo:echo
When prompted, type "echo " to trigger a tool call round-trip.
coding-agent
The real thing: DeepSeek V4 + the bash tool suite + stdio chat + JSONL persistence, wired from cordis.yml. Where echo-agent proves the skeleton with mocks, this is a usable coding assistant.
Run with: yarn demo:coding (needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the environment or a gitignored repo-root .env). See coding-agent/README.md for details.
