Tianyi Cui 6a528be569 build: doc-sync gates — typecheck doc code blocks + verify event taxonomy (RFC 006 pts 1-2)
Two tsx CI gates make doc/code drift fail fast:
- doc-typecheck extracts every fenced ts block from README/docs/package READMEs,
  compiles them with tsc --noEmit against a temp project (vendor->lib, harness->src
  paths from tsconfig.typecheck.json), and fails on errors. Deliberate sketches opt
  out with ```ts ignore-check; the opt-out ratio is reported and capped.
- verify-event-taxonomy asserts the docs/architecture.md taxonomy table names
  exactly the events declared in the interface Events blocks. This surfaced three
  events the table had been missing (tools/change, llm/adapter-change,
  system-prompt/change), now added.

Doc snippets made compilable with stub imports/declares (1 genuine sketch ignored).
Wired into CI after typecheck. API reports (RFC 006 pt 3) deferred. Graduates RFC
006 pts 1-2 -> ADR 0014.

dsh-invariants

Dev-mode event-contract invariants and session-log freeze. A pure-listener plugin (everything is a plugin) that asserts the harness event contract at runtime and, optionally, freezes logged session-event data so any code that mutates history throws instead of corrupting silently.

Off in production. Enable it in tests and the demos, where a contract violation should fail loudly. It costs nothing when not registered, and doubles as executable documentation of the event taxonomy — the assertions are the contract.

Plugin

A functional plugin — register the module namespace (this is what loading by name in cordis.yml does):

import type { Context } from 'cordis'
import * as Invariants from '@deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants'

declare const ctx: Context

await ctx.plugin(Invariants)                     // freeze on (default)
await ctx.plugin(Invariants, { freeze: false })  // assert contract, don't freeze

inject: ['sessions'] — it reads ctx.sessions.list() at apply time to rebuild trace state for sessions that already exist (so a hot reload mid-turn doesn't falsely reject the next event). It listens on session/created, session/event, and agent/status.

Config

Key Default Meaning
freeze true Deep-freeze each logged event's data so mutating a logged event throws. Set false to assert the contract without freezing.

Invariants asserted

Session log (per session):

  • seq strictly increases — the spine of replay equivalence.
  • turns pair and nestturn/start opens a turn, turn/end closes the matching one; no overlapping turns.
  • steps nest in turnsstep/start opens a step in the open turn; step/end closes the matching step.
  • chunks belong to an open stepstep/start precedes its assistant/chunks.
  • a tool/result needs a prior tool/call — but NOT the converse: a tool/call may have no result (a thrown tools/execute waterfall ends the step with no tool/result, which is legal).

Agent status (per agent):

  • legal transitions onlyidle↔running and (idle|running)→disposed. A no-op transition (setStatus dedups, so it never fires) and leaving the terminal disposed state are violations.

On any violation it throws InvariantError (code: 'INVARIANT').

Why runtime, not deep-readonly types

A DeepReadonly<SessionEvent> is high type-noise across every log consumer, and a plugin can cast straight through it. A dev-mode freeze plus these assertions catch real corruption at zero production cost and zero type noise. The always-on half of that defense — cloning derived messages so request/adapter mutation can't reach back into the log — lives in dsh-session's deriveMessages. This package is the dev-mode tripwire. See ADR 0012.

Seeded sessions

A seeded/forked session arrives with events already in its log (the Session constructor copies the seed without emitting session/event). On session/created the plugin replays the existing log through the checker and freezes those entries, so seeded history is held to the same contract.
