Tianyi Cui 3f83a4ee96 review: the persona becomes the system-prompt plugin's deployment config
Review round 2 (tianyicui inline comments):

- dsh-system-prompt itself registers the harness:identity (-100) and
  deployment:persona (0) sections — they must survive a swapped loop
  plugin, so they leave dsh-agent-loop; the persona text is the plugin's
  own validated 'persona' config. The model/cwd variables STAY on the
  loop: runtime facts of the agents it drives.
- AgentOptions.systemPrompt is deleted with all its forwarding plumbing:
  the app configs' systemPrompt keys become 'persona' routed through
  dsh-agent-core (schema = z.intersect of the owners'), the ACP bridge
  and tool-subagent stop carrying persona configuration, and subagent
  children now render the deployment persona like every other agent.
- Example personas drop transport/interface trivia (ACP, CLI) — facts
  irrelevant to the model.
- Root CONTEXT.md removed (not idiomatic); its persona definition was
  wrong under the new ownership anyway.
- Docs, READMEs, the prompt-variables RFC, and generated catalogs
  updated; new loop test pins the assemble-waterfall escape valve
  (an emptied assembly sends NO system field).

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.yml loading the @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent app
  • 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-agent is the adapter

Run with: pnpm run demo:echo. When prompted, type "echo " to trigger a tool call round-trip.

coding-agent

A REPL agent demo: DeepSeek V4 + the read/write/edit filesystem tools + the bash tool suite, subagent delegation, and the todo_write task tracker on the same @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent app. The UI is a terminal readline REPL.

Run with: pnpm run demo:repl (needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the environment or a gitignored repo-root .env). See coding-agent/README.md for details.

acp-agent

An agent demo 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.
