Tianyi Cui e2bde2902c refactor(examples): extract the app spine into dsh-agent-core + app packages
Implements docs/rfc/.../2026-06-20-extract-example-app-packages.md. Each
example was thick — a hand-rolled start.ts, an infra preamble, nested
base.yml/base-core.yml/acp-tail.yml includes, and a coupled front-door
cluster enforced only by prose. This moves the composition into packages so
each example is a thin leaf cordis.yml: pick the swappable backends, load one
app package.

New packages:
  - @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-core (packages/core/agent-core): one bundle plugin
    that loads the providerless/executor-less/UI-less spine (timer + llm +
    sessions + system-prompt + tools + agents + invariants + tool-bash +
    agent-loop) via ctx.plugin(...) inside apply(), and forwards agent-loop's
    `agents` list as its own Config (export const Config = AgentLoop.Config,
    default []).
  - @deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent (packages/ui/stdio-agent): terminal chat APP —
    agent-core + console logger + readline UI + a pre-created `main` agent, with
    a bin. The demo:echo/coding front door.
  - @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp-agent (packages/ui/acp-agent): ACP server APP —
    agent-core + JSONL persistence + the acp bridge, NO stdout logger, with a
    bin. The stdout-purity footgun is structurally unreachable from the leaf.

Amendment to the RFC: hmr stays a LEAF cordis.yml entry, not baked into
dsh-stdio-agent. hmr is a Loader-only dev plugin (throws without
--expose-internals; the in-process test tier can't even import its decorator
form), so a package statically importing it could never carry the per-file
coverage gate. Unlike the console logger, a stray hmr is not a stdout-purity
footgun, so leaving it at the leaf costs no safety. With hmr out, all three new
packages carry in-process unit specs at 100%.

Boot glue (Loader tail, .env load, snapshot-mode selection, stdin-dispose
lifecycle) moves into each app's bin; start.ts and base.yml/base-core.yml/
acp-tail.yml are deleted. Each app package gets a keyless real-load-path test
that boots through its bin + the cordis Loader (guarding the unwrapExports
export-shape bug class, postmortem 0001). ACP snapshot replay stays green
against the existing committed goldens (pure boot restructuring). RFC moved
proposed->implemented with the amendment recorded; package/example/architecture
docs and the module graph updated.

core/ — product API spine

The packages every harness build is assembled from: the session log, the system-prompt assembly, the tool registry, the agent vocabulary, and the one concrete loop that drives them. These are product packages — the stable surface plugins and consumers build against.

Package Role ctx key
session/ Event-sourced session log + in-memory store ctx.sessions
system-prompt/ Prompt-section + tool-schema assembly registry ctx.systemPrompt
tools/ Tool registry + tools/execute waterfall ctx.tools
agent/ Agent interface, registry, agent/* event vocabulary ctx.agents
agent-loop/ The concrete loop plugin: ReactLoopAgent + the loop driver ctx.agentLoop
agent-core/ Bundle plugin: the providerless/executor-less/UI-less spine as code (loads the spine)

agent-loop is the one concrete implementation of the agent seam and lives here because it is the harness's default product loop; everything else in core/ is interface/vocabulary. Plugins depend on the agent vocabulary, never on agent-loop directly, so the loop stays swappable.

agent-core is the composition counterpart: one bundle plugin that loads the whole providerless spine (timer + llm + sessions + system-prompt + tools + agents + invariants + tool-bash + agent-loop) and forwards agent-loop's agents list as its own config. App packages (ui/stdio-agent, ui/acp-agent) consume it and add only a front door; a leaf adds only the swappable backends. It lives in core/ because it composes exclusively core/ + interface packages and ships no provider, executor, or UI of its own.
