GenerateOptions.prefill had no production setter and both adapters
rejected it with LlmError('UNSUPPORTED') — its entire observable
behavior was two throws, each pinned by one adapter test. DeepSeek's
chat-prefix completion is a Beta feature on a base URL neither adapter
targets. ToolSchema.strict was threaded through defineTool, the
registry's schemas() allowlist, the deepseek wire mapping, a per-tool
payload-patching pass in the pi-ai adapter, and a tool-catalog render
row, yet no shipped tool set it and the internal endpoint story for
strict mode was never built.
Remove both fields end-to-end: the vocabulary in dsh-llm, the adapter
guards and wire branches, the dsh-tools threading, the tool-catalog
Strict row, the pinning tests, the core.md pastes, the adapter README
rows, and the cookbook line that used prefill as the UNSUPPORTED
example (now stated generically). The pi-ai payload fixup keeps the
half with a job: pi-ai stamps strict:false on every serialized tool,
so the fixup scrubs it unconditionally for wire parity with the
hand-rolled twin (per-tool set/delete machinery gone). temperature/
stop/maxTokens are untouched — honored end-to-end by both adapters.
Each knob returns with its first real producer: prefill with an
adapter that implements chat-prefix completion, strict with a tool
that wants it and a beta-endpoint story.
RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/simplification/2026-07-04-drop-inert-request-knobs.md
(moved from proposed/, amended to shipped reality); the content-block
vocabulary RFC's consequence line now records prefill as producer-gated.
llm/ — LLM capability family
The LLM seam and its provider adapters. The interface package (llm) owns the abstract service, the content-block vocabulary, and the stream-chunk assembler; the adapters are concrete implementations that register on ctx.llm. All product packages.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
llm/ |
Abstract LLM service + content-block vocabulary + chunk assembler | ctx.llm |
llm-deepseek/ |
DeepSeek API adapter (hand-rolled fetch/SSE) | (registers on ctx.llm) |
llm-pi-ai/ |
DeepSeek adapter via @earendil-works/pi-ai (design twin) |
(registers on ctx.llm) |
The interface lives at llm/llm/; adapters are flat siblings under the group. A new provider adapter joins here and registers on ctx.llm without touching the interface. See twin LLM adapters for why two adapters exist.
