ctx.agents

AgentRegistry — provided by @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent.

Agent registry (ctx.agents): tracks live agents so UI, hook, and orchestrator plugins can find them without depending on the concrete loop package. Agent creation is provided by whichever plugin implements the AgentFactory (@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-loop), registered via setFactory.

Source

ctx.agents.setFactory(factory)

setFactory(factory: AgentFactory): () => void

Register the agent-creation factory (the loop calls this on construction, effect-scoped). A traced Cordis service is canonicalized to its concrete target; each create/resume call is then traced through that caller's context so ownership follows the caller without stacking proxy layers. Throws if a factory is already registered. Returns the disposer; on dispose the factory slot is cleared.

  • factory — the loop-owned factory create/resume delegate to.

Returns the disposer that clears the factory slot. The exact Cordis effect disposer (single-shot): composite (generator) effects may yield it directly — exact identity nests the teardown in order.

Source

ctx.agents.create(options)

async create(options: CreateAgentOptions): Promise<AgentHandle>

Create and publish a new agent through the registered factory. Distinct from register (which records an already-constructed agent): this constructs the agent and its session. Rejects if no factory is registered or creation/setup fails. The resolved AgentHandle lets the owner tear down exactly this agent.

  • options — shared identity, session seed/metadata, and agent options.

Returns the handle after setup, rollback-covered publication, and loop start complete.

Source

ctx.agents.resume(options)

async resume(options: ResumeAgentOptions): Promise<AgentHandle>

Load a persisted session and resume an agent on it through the registered factory. Rejects if no factory is registered; the factory rejects if session persistence is not configured or persistence/setup fails.

  • options — persisted identity, configuration, and optional setup.

Returns the handle after setup, rollback-covered publication, and loop start complete.

Source

ctx.agents.register(agent)

register(agent: Agent): () => void

Register a live agent. Throws if an agent with the same id is already registered. Emits agent/created on registration and agent/disposed when the calling fiber is disposed — both with the agent's scope carrier (scopeTarget(agent, agent)): the subject is the agent in hand, so the emits are scope-filtered regardless of which context invoked register (calling through agent.ctx scopes EFFECTS; dispatch scoping always requires passing the carrier). Returns the disposer.

  • agent — the already-constructed agent to record in the store.

Returns the EXACT Cordis effect disposer (single-shot; a repeat call returns undefined without awaiting an in-flight teardown). Exact identity is load-bearing: a composite (generator) effect that owns a teardown ORDER — the agent factory's lifecycle chain — must yield THIS function so Cordis nests the unregistration at that yield position; yielding a wrapper would leave it disposing as a concurrent sibling on owner unload, unregistering the agent (and emitting agent/disposed) while its final turn is still draining.

Source

ctx.agents.enter(agent, owner)

enter(agent: Agent, owner: Agent | undefined): () => void

Insert an already-constructed agent without announcing it. This is the advanced ordered-lifecycle primitive used by the async agent factory: it first completes setup while the agent is unpublished, then assigns the returned detach closure into its pre-installed composite teardown before calling announce. Ordinary callers use register.

  • agent — the prepared, unpublished agent.
  • owner — live agent whose scoped context created this agent, or undefined for a top-level runtime root. This is runtime ownership, not the resumed session's durable parent lineage.

Returns an idempotent closure that removes this exact entry and emits agent/disposed with listener failures contained. When called from a synchronous agent/created listener, removal and disposal wait until that creation dispatch unwinds.

Source

ctx.agents.announce(agent)

announce(agent: Agent): void

Announce an agent previously inserted with enter.

  • agent — the live inserted agent to announce.

Source

ctx.agents.get(id)

get(id: SessionId): Agent | undefined

Look up a live agent.

  • id — the shared agent/session id to look up.

Returns the agent, or undefined when no live agent has that id.

Source

ctx.agents.isOwnedBy(id, owner)

isOwnedBy(id: SessionId, owner: Agent): boolean

Test whether a live agent was created through one exact parent agent's scoped context. Runtime ownership is independent of durable session lineage and remains unambiguous when unrelated providers reuse an id.

  • id — the candidate child agent's shared agent/session id.
  • owner — the expected runtime creator agent.

Returns true only while the exact child entry is live under that owner.

Source

ctx.agents.list()

list(): Agent[]

All live agents, in registration order.

Returns a fresh array; mutating it does not affect the registry.

Source

ctx.agents.roots()

roots(): Agent[]

All live top-level agents in registration order. A top-level agent was created without an owning agent context; durable session lineage does not affect this runtime relation, so a resumed fork may still be a root.

Returns a fresh array; mutating it does not affect the registry.
