NI0317 d4614f92d6 feat(fs): add a model-facing directory listing tool
`ctx.fs.listDir` has shipped since the filesystem seam gained it, with skill
discovery as its only consumer; the model-facing tool was deferred to a
separate decision. Nothing else could answer "what is in this directory":
`rg --files` backs glob and grep and never emits a directory entry, so an
empty directory is invisible, no output says which names are directories,
and no output gives an entry count.

`list` takes an optional `path`, defaulting to the session workspace so the
common question needs no argument, and returns the direct children of one
directory with their type. Two presentation rules carry it: directories sort
first, then files, then non-regular children, each alphabetically — so
truncation loses leaves rather than the tree — and the footer always states
the complete listing's size and composition, so a capped view can never read
as a whole directory.

It emits no `fs/observed`: seeing a filename is not reading a file, and a
listing must never satisfy the read-before-write gate.

headless-agent

English | 中文

Headless one-shot agent wiring: DeepSeek V4 + local bash and filesystem tools + subagent delegation + workflows and fresh-agent Ralph iteration + todo_write + JSONL persistence, with @deepseek-ai/dsh-cli-demo as the app front door.

Run it

# repo root .env (gitignored) or exported env:
#   DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=sk-…
#   DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL=https://…   # optional; defaults to the public API
pnpm run demo:headless "fix the failing test in this workspace"
pnpm run demo:headless --output-format json -- "summarize the implementation"
pnpm run demo:headless --output-format stream-json -- "run the focused tests"

Exactly one nonblank positional task is required; quote tasks containing spaces. There is no -p flag. text prints the last text-bearing assistant message, json prints one DSH-native result record, and stream-json emits the top-level session's canonical task-turn events before that record. Child sessions surface only through parent tool events and results.

Each invocation creates and persists a fresh session, runs all model and tool steps in one turn, flushes, disposes, and exits. This is non-interactive automation: there is no prompt, approval, resume, second turn, or stdin context. The configured tools can mutate the launch workspace, run commands, spawn child agents, and consume provider tokens.

Advanced and snapshot wiring

advanced.cordis.yml adds Code Mode and the Cordis tools to the shipped leaf. advanced.cordis.snapshot.yml replaces only the live LLM with replay. The tests under tests/ own the keyless real-Loader smoke, key-gated world-verified smoke, and the stream-json replay snapshot with its parent and child session fixtures.

The package-level CLI contract documents output records, exit status, cancellation, persistence, and model/token effects.
