Rename the six model-facing tools pty_* -> terminal_* and align every description, guidance section, ACP card title, and rendered result to terminal terminology. Package and service internals keep their technical PTY names (PtyService, "unknown PTY session", node-pty). Harden the local backend teardown: - a failed close is retryable: drop the memoized rejection so a later terminal_close re-runs against the live process table - service disposal clears the backend, reservation, and owner-cleanup registries even when a close fails - stop readiness polling before teardown so an in-flight send settles as session_exit instead of a mis-inferred wait reason - bound the sanitizer's pending buffer against unterminated escape runs Update the tool catalog, package READMEs, the bilingual Agent Note, and the acp/headless pty-tools snapshots to match.
core/ — product API spine
The session log, system-prompt assembly, tool registry, agent vocabulary, and concrete loop that form the harness's default control spine. These are product packages — the stable surface plugins and consumers build against.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
scope/ |
Scoped-context registration primitive (scope tags, scope-filtered dispatch) | (library — no ctx key) |
session/ |
Event-sourced session log + in-memory store | ctx.sessions |
system-prompt/ |
Prompt-section + tool-schema assembly registry | ctx.systemPrompt |
tools/ |
Scoped tool registry + pre-policy, guards, around-dispatch, post-policy, and final-result observation | ctx.tools |
agent/ |
Agent interface, live registry, process-local initiator scope, agent/* event vocabulary |
ctx.agents |
agent-loop/ |
Concrete plugin implementing the public Agent contract and owning the loop driver |
ctx.agentLoop |
scope/ is the one non-service package here: a dependency-free library (createScope/scopeOf/scopeTarget) the registries and the loop build per-agent scoping on — it sits below session/ and system-prompt/ in the module graph precisely so they can consume it without a cycle.
agent-loop is the one concrete implementation of the agent seam and lives here because it is the harness's default product loop. It runs each driver inside ctx.agents.withInitiator(). Extension plugins depend on agent, including when they need the initiating Agent, and never on agent-loop directly, so the loop stays swappable.
The default composition that wires this spine into a runnable agent lives in examples/agent-spine-demo: one bundle plugin that loads the control spine plus selected default capabilities (timer + llm + sessions + system-prompt + tools + agents + invariants + the local skill family + tool-bash + workspace-context + agent-loop) and forwards agent-loop's agents list as its own config. It sits in examples/ — ready-to-run demo/reference bundles — not in core/: core/ ships the swappable spine pieces, while a demo bundle picks one concrete composition of them and adds a front door.
