Tianyi Cui b59d245c7c feat: Code Mode — the registry's mode config, the SDK codegen, and the run_code bridge
The dsh-tools half of the Code Mode RFC (its fourth, final change): the
registry gains its first config — mode: native | code | both — and OWNS how
its tools reach the model. 'code' contributes exactly one wire tool,
run_code, plus a lazy tools:sdk prompt section declaring every other tool
as a generated TypeScript API (jsonSchemaToTs: total over the defineTool
subset, unknown degradation, lexicographic byte-identical rendering);
'both' ships both representations; 'native' is byte-for-byte the old
behavior. Non-native modes fail every assembly loudly without a
typescript-language ctx.codeRuntime.

run_code's dispatch bridge: JSON-normalizes each binding argument before
dispatch (what dispatches is what the tool/code-dispatch event logs — the
append can never fail on payload shape; BigInt/circulars reject that one
call), serializes all program tool calls through a per-run queue (even
Promise.all — no concurrency-safety metadata yet), routes every sub-call
through tools/pre-execute → tools/post-execute (a deny rejects the
program-side promise), drops sub-call additionalContext (no safe outlet
mid-run; pinned), owns a run-scoped abort that follows the outer signal in
and fires on settlement (in-flight sub-dispatch aborted, queued abandoned,
queue drained before returning), and converts a failed run into
CodeRunFailedError → a structured isError carrying kind + captured logs.
tool/code-dispatch joins SessionEventMap by declaration merging (log-only;
deriveMessages ignores it).

The composed surface: the tools config forwards through agent-core and
both app packages; examples/code-agent + demo:code run the worker runtime
under mode code (keyless boot smoke + a with-key e2e proving the collapsed
[run_code] header, the dispatch events, and the file the program wrote);
two new snapshot scenarios (code-mode-turn, both-mode-turn) record the SDK
section, collapsed header, dispatch events, and result card — each its own
header-pinning class (the harness gains per-scenario config overlays and
per-class pins). Catalogs, graphs, cookbook, hooks-bridge notes, and the
RFC (moved to implemented/, restructured to decision-era headings) updated
in the same change.

Tool Execution Pipeline

This graph shows where policy, hooks, sandboxing, filesystem guards, result rewriting, and UI rendering fit without changing the loop. The key extension points are the tools/pre-execute and tools/post-execute waterfalls.

Filesystem read-before-edit checks live below tool-fs on the fs/* event gate, while hook bridges and future permission prompts live on the generic tool waterfalls. That split lets the same hooks observe bash, fs, web, todo, and subagent calls without coupling those tools to one policy service. Code Mode rides the same pipeline twice over: run_code is itself a registered tool body, and each tool call its program makes re-enters ctx.tools.execute() through BOTH waterfalls — serialized one at a time, logged as a tool/code-dispatch session event, with a deny surfacing to the program as a binding rejection (a sub-call's additionalContext is deliberately dropped — no safe outlet mid-run preserves call/result adjacency).

Maintenance mode: curated Mermaid flow; exact tool schemas and event signatures live in generated catalogs.
