The folder is becoming the home of one-doc-per-subsystem pages (intro + data structures + cordis services/events), so the name must describe the whole contract, not just the type-vocabulary third of it. Mechanical rename rebuilt on current master: every inbound Markdown link, generator constant, website route, type-equiv manifest path, and spec expectation moves together; the zh sides of the notes whose prose names the folder are aligned (子系统) in the same change; touched bilingual pairs re-recorded; translation-prompt snapshot re-recorded (its example embeds development.md). Historical Agent Note slugs keep their dated filenames.

User Credentials
English | 中文
The credential seam of dsh-credentials keeps secrets out of configuration: settings sections and cordis.yml entries carry references (environment-variable names), providers such as dsh-credentials-local own the values, and consumers resolve a reference once per operation — the LLM adapters resolve once per model request, so a rotated credential reaches the very next request without any restart. One seam-wide rule binds every provider: an empty stored value is absent everywhere.
Source: packages/credentials/credentials/src/index.ts
Identity
A reference names one credential as a POSIX-style environment-variable name. The brand keeps references from mixing with other cross-boundary strings; construction validates the shell-identifier shape.
/** Nominal reference to one credential: a POSIX-style environment-variable name. */
type CredentialRef = Branded<'CredentialRef'>
Resolution
resolve(ref) returns the value with the provider-defined source layer that supplied it, or undefined while unconfigured. Consumers re-resolve at each operation and never cache across operations — that per-operation read is the hot-update mechanism.
/** One resolved credential value and the source layer that supplied it. */
interface ResolvedCredential {
/** The non-empty secret value. */
value: string
/** Provider-defined source layer id (the local provider uses `env`, `file`, `project-env`, and `user-env`). */
source: string
}
Description
describe(ref) answers configuration surfaces without ever exposing a value: whether the reference resolves, from which layer, and whether set would currently succeed. The local provider reports a reference supplied by the live process environment as writable: false — a write would appear to succeed while resolution kept returning the shadowing value, so the seam rejects it and the UI can render the reference read-only up front.
/** Source and writability facts for one reference, safe for configuration UIs — never the value. */
interface CredentialInfo {
/** Whether {@link Credentials.resolve} would currently return a value. */
configured: boolean
/** Source layer currently supplying the value; absent while unconfigured. */
source?: string
/** Whether {@link Credentials.set} would currently succeed for this reference. */
writable: boolean
}
Change commits
credentials/updated (ref) fires after a committed change to a provider-managed source — a set, an unset, or an external edit observed in storage. Ambient process-environment changes are not observable and never emit. Consumers do not need the event (they re-resolve per operation); it exists for configuration surfaces refreshing a "configured" badge.
