Applies the documentation standard to its biggest offender. Every rule survives as one to three lines plus a link to its durable home; the stories, duplicate statements, and re-narrations go: - Situational clusters evict to new homes: docs/testing.md (tiers, with-key policy, real-over-mock, world-verification, real-entry-path guards), docs/defensive-patterns.md (the bug-class rules), and docs/cookbook/responding-to-pr-review-on-a-stack.md (the stacked-PR review procedure). - Doc-authoring rules consolidate into docs/AGENTS.md § Writing rules (current-state-never-history, md-wrap, ts-block compilation, @mode, catalog same-change, pair same-change). - packages/README.md drops to the group table + the extension-vs-bundle dependency rule; the hand ASCII graph yields to the generated module-graph.md; group READMEs are the canonical per-package map. - packages/AGENTS.md keeps only its packages-specific rules (export shape, ctx.get, real-Loader coverage); examples/AGENTS.md repoints its with-key-policy link; rfc/README.md loses a narrated-history aside; dsh-code-review / dsh-find-simplifications / verify-md-wrap references follow the moved content. - Budget manifest ratchets: AGENTS.md 8200 -> 1500 (now 1,495 words), packages/README.md 1900 -> 600, packages/AGENTS.md 600 -> 450; the two new eviction docs join the budget set (testing 800, defensive 550); docs/AGENTS.md raises 1000 -> 1250 for the absorbed writing rules (the one justified increase). The doc-tiers RFC's deferred list prunes the two items this change ships.
Examples
Runnable demos (not workspaces) that showcase how the harness is wired. Each example is now a thin leaf: a cordis.yml that picks the swappable backends (an LLM adapter, a bash executor), loads ONE app package, and may add optional product tools or demo-only mocks. The composition — the spine, the front-door cluster, and the boot glue — lives in the app packages (@deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent, @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent) and the @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-core bundle they share. There is no start.ts; the demo:* scripts invoke each app package's bin.
echo-agent
A mock model + echo tool on the stdio chat app — the all-mock skeleton. The leaf swaps dsh-stdio-agent's LLM backend to a local mock-echo adapter and adds a local echo tool. Demonstrates:
- A thin leaf
cordis.ymlloading the@deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agentapp - Registering a mock
LlmAdapter(streaming scripted responses) - Registering a tool via
ctx.tools.register() - "Swap the backend, keep the app" — the only difference from
coding-agentis the adapter
Run with: pnpm run demo:echo. When prompted, type "echo " to trigger a tool call round-trip.
coding-agent
A REPL agent demo: DeepSeek V4 + the read/write/edit filesystem tools + the bash tool suite, subagent delegation, and the todo_write task tracker on the same @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent app. The UI is a terminal readline REPL.
Run with: pnpm run demo:repl (needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the environment or a gitignored repo-root .env). See coding-agent/README.md for details.
acp-agent
An agent demo exposed as an Agent Client Protocol (ACP) server over JSON-RPC stdio, via the @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent app — drive it from Zed or any other ACP client. Also the home of the keyless snapshot tests.
Run with: pnpm run demo:acp (needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY). See acp-agent/README.md for the Zed setup and the snapshot-test design.
