Bring the interception-seams branch onto current master (via A→B). The substantive reconciliation is master's compaction `agent/pre-step` serial seam meeting C's interception seams: - types.ts: keep BOTH master's `agent/pre-step` AND C's new interception events (`agent/prompt-submit`, `agent/session-start`, `agent/turn-continuation`→ `ContinuationDecision`); drop the turn-mirror declarations (removed on A). - loop.ts: the merged per-turn order is `turn/start` → per queued msg `agent/prompt-submit` (rewrite/inject/block) → (fully-blocked ⇒ zero-step `rejected`) → per step: drain steering → assemble system prompt → `agent/pre-step` (compaction, OUTSIDE the step) → `step/start` → single `deriveMessages()` → model → tools/pre-execute·dispatch·post-execute. No turn-mirror emits; `closeTurn()` is the A-simplified single-call form. - Docs (architecture, core.md, agent/agent-loop READMEs, catalog) reconciled to show C's interception seams alongside `agent/pre-step`, no turn/step mirrors. - rfc/README: dropped the stale `proposed/` compaction row (master moved that RFC to implemented/); kept C's new `pre-tool-input-rewrite` proposed row. - interception.spec.ts: migrated its two `agent/turn-end` reason collectors to the `turn/end` session event, and ADDED a cross-test proving a `prompt-submit` rewrite + additionalContext is VISIBLE to an `agent/pre-step` listener on the same turn — pinning the merged seam ordering (compaction sees the post-prompt-submit surface, not stale history).
ui/ — editor/client integration surfaces
Integrations that expose the agent to an external editor or client. These are product packages: a real surface a user drives the harness through.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
acp/ |
Agent Client Protocol bridge: serves the agent to an ACP editor (Zed) over JSON-RPC stdio | (drives ctx.agents/ctx.sessions) |
stdio-agent/ |
Terminal stdio chat APP: the agent-core spine + console logger + readline UI + a pre-created main agent, with a bin |
(composition + bin) |
acp-agent/ |
ACP server APP: the agent-core spine + JSONL persistence + the acp bridge (no stdout logger), with a bin |
(composition + bin) |
A UI integration is a client-driver plugin, not a loop change and not a capability seam: it consumes the existing agent/* event taxonomy and the dsh-agent factory. The readline ui-stdio plugin is the unstructured analogue but lives in support/ because it exists chiefly for the examples and the coverage gate — ui/ is reserved for surfaces shipped as product.
stdio-agent and acp-agent are the two app packages: each composes the core/agent-core spine with its coupled front-door cluster (and owns the boot bin), so a leaf cordis.yml is the swappable backends plus one app entry plus any optional product tools. They live in ui/ because each IS a user-facing front door; the stdout-purity coupling (logger vs. no logger) becomes a property of the artifact rather than a leaf convention.
