# @deepseek-ai/dsh-host-runtime
Host runtime assembly for `dsh`: `bootHost` composes the core plugin spine (LLM service + DeepSeek adapter, sessions with JSONL persistence, system prompt, tools, agents, agent loop, workspace instructions, local bash), `createApiProxy` implements the [`dsh-host-apiproxy`](../apiproxy/README.md) contract over that composition, and `startHost` is the one-step shell seam returning `{ api, handler, defaults, ctx, dispose }`.
Which plugins mount and with what defaults is decided only here — shells must not `ctx.plugin` to alter the assembly. `RunningHost.ctx` is a formal seam with exactly two sanctioned uses: mounting protocol front-door plugins (e.g. a future `dsh acp`) and headless session-event subscription; consuming clients must not bypass `api` through it.
## Configuration
| Key | Default | Contract |
|---|---:|---|
| `persistenceRoot` | (required) | Root directory for JSONL session persistence. |
| `workspaceContext` | (required) | [`AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` loader](../../context/workspace-context/README.md) config with an explicit `maxBytes`, or `false` to disable it. |
| `provider` | `'deepseek'` | Default provider route injected as agentOptions on create/resume and reported by `host.describe`. |
| `model` | `'deepseek-v4-flash'` | Default model id, same single source as `provider`. |
## ApiProxy implementation notes
Unary methods take the narrow `RpcRequest<P>` and echo `request.rpcId`; a prompt's rpcId rides `MessageSource` into the `user/message` event so clients can promote optimistic echoes. `history`/`prompt` on a cold session implicitly resume it, deduplicating concurrent calls through an in-flight table; `history` paginates backwards on message boundaries (never mid-message). The mux stream replays a `session/subscribed` baseline per attached session on open; the host stream carries session lifecycle, running flips, and `agent/error` as the only outlet for live failures with no turn position.
## Model Experience
Indirectly, through the model-facing plugins bootHost mounts and the provider/model defaults injected into created and resumed agents. When `workspaceContext` is enabled, each agent-loop instance freezes the applicable workspace instructions into its logged request prefix; the owning package documents the exact [model-visible framing](../../context/workspace-context/README.md#prompt-shape).
#### KV Cache effect
No direct invalidation; the mounted model-facing plugins own their request-prefix changes.
## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- **`respond` is a stub** — it always returns `not-pending`; the approval/question pending registry (stable-rpcId mint on accept, baseline replay on stream reopen, wire answerer) is the next host-side step.
- **`host.describe.version` is a placeholder** — it does not yet report the `apps/cli` package version.
- **The assembly is fixed** — per-deployment plugin selection (user profile, log sinks, alternative persistence) has a documented home here but no configuration surface yet.
