# Tool Schema Catalog

Every model-facing tool a shipped plugin contributes to `ctx.tools`: the `name`, `description`, and JSON-Schema `parameters` the model receives via the system-prompt assembly. It complements the [subsystem pages](subsystems/core.md) (the types plus each page's generated Cordis API region) — this page is the *tools* the agent is offered.

This file is GENERATED and verified fresh by `pnpm run verify-tool-catalog` (part of `doc-sync`) — do not edit it by hand. Unlike the cordis catalog (a pure source-AST pass), this generator BOOTS each tool plugin on a real context and reads `ctx.tools.schemas()`, because a tool schema is not statically knowable (runtime-spread enums, concatenated descriptions, config-driven names, raw-JSON-Schema MCP tools). A completeness guard globs `packages/*/tool-*` and fails if any package is missing from the generator's boot manifest, so a new tool cannot be silently undocumented. See [the tool-schema-catalog Agent Note](../.agents/notes/implemented/process/2026-07-02-tool-schema-catalog.md).

Scope: shipped product tools under `packages/*/tool-*`, each booted with its DEFAULT config, except where a Config field is REQUIRED with no default — there the generator must choose, and the per-package note records which branch this page shows. The registered tool NAME can be a load-time config (e.g. `tool-subagent`'s `toolName`), so a deployment may expose a package under a different or additional name — a per-package note records those shipped aliases where they exist. The `examples/` demo tools (e.g. `echo`) are excluded, matching the cordis catalog's packages-only scope.

## Tool Package Map

This table connects model-visible tool names to the plugin package and service seams behind them. Exact JSON Schemas follow in the package sections below.

| Tool package | Model-visible names | Requires | Writes / affects | Shipped aliases | Deployment note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-ask-user` | `ask_user_question` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.userInteraction` | `tool/call`, `tool/result after a UI/provider answers the question` | - | ask_user_question pauses the tool call until the active UI provider returns a human answer. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools` | `run_code` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.codeRuntime (execution time)`, `ctx.systemPrompt` | `tool/call`, `one tool/code-dispatch-start + tool/code-dispatch pair per bridged sub-call`, `tool/result` | - | Owned by the tool registry as a reserved transport outside filterable capability layers under `mode: code` / `mode: both` (see the Code Mode Agent Note). Under `code` it is the registry's only wire contribution; the other visible capabilities are declared in a generated SDK section in the loaded runtime's language, and a program calls them through bindings scheduled under the native concurrency contract (submission-ordered starts and policy; concurrency-safe bodies overlap up to `maxParallelSubCalls`) that re-enter the complete guarded tool pipeline and link each nested execution to this outer result. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-plan-mode` | `exit_plan_mode` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `ctx.userInteraction (execution time, opportunistic)` | `tool/call`, `plan/mode inactive on an approved review`, `tool/result` | - | exit_plan_mode stays in the model-facing schema while planning is inactive so transitions add no tool-catalog churn on top of the plan-policy change. Its execute path rejects calls outside plan mode; in plan mode it presents the plan over the user-interaction seam (approve / keep planning with feedback), and approval logs plan mode inactive at the step boundary. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-bash` | `bash` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.bash`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `ctx.bashEnv`, `ctx.tasks at call time for run_in_background` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | The bash tool is the model-facing consumer of the bash executor seam. A `run_in_background` run registers with the generic `ctx.tasks` runtime and is collected/stopped through the `task_*` tools from `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-tasks`; the `enableRunInBackground` config (default true) removes the parameter entirely when disabled. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-pwsh` | `pwsh` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.bash`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `ctx.bashEnv`, `ctx.tasks at call time for run_in_background` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | The pwsh tool is the PowerShell-dialect consumer of the bash executor seam for Windows compositions (a PowerShell executor such as `@deepseek-ai/dsh-pwsh-local` backs `ctx.bash`); it mirrors the bash tool call-for-call minus sandbox controls — `run_in_background` runs register with the generic `ctx.tasks` runtime and are collected/stopped through the `task_*` tools, and the managed `DSH_*` environment comes from `@deepseek-ai/dsh-bash-env`. Each call runs in a fresh process (no persistent PTY session), with native `C:\...` paths and `$env:NAME` variables. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-cordis` | `cordis_inspect`, `cordis_mount`, `cordis_unmount` | `ctx.tools` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `process-local temporary Plugin lifecycle` | - | Not in any shipped tree (a deliberate opt-in — temporary Plugin code reaches the real runtime, see .agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-08-self-referential-cordis-toolset.md). Plugins created by cordis_mount may register ADDITIONAL model-visible tools until unmounted or DSH restarts; a full changed request header logs those tool-set changes. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-bash-persistent` | `bash` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.pty`, `an owning Agent at execution time` | `tool/call`, `PTY shell state`, `tool/result` | - | One owner-isolated persistent bash tool; deployment composition supplies the PTY backend and may override the model-facing environment description. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-str-replace-editor` | `str_replace_editor` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.fs` | `tool/call`, `fs/observed after view presence/absence, edit absence, or successful mutation`, `tool/result` | - | Standalone view/create/unique literal replace/line insert tool over the filesystem seam; it composes with any shell or terminal API. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs` | `edit`, `read`, `read_image`, `write` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.fs`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `ctx.attachments (read_image registration)`, `ctx.llm + an image-capable route (read_image execution)` | `tool/call`, `fs/write-intent or fs/edit-intent for mutations`, `fs/observed after read presence/absence or successful file operation`, `durable attachment (read_image)`, `tool/result` | - | The read-before-write/edit policy is added by `@deepseek-ai/dsh-fs-policy` (an `fs/*` event-gate plugin, no schema change); a deployment that loads these tools is expected to also load it. `read_image` is not registered without `ctx.attachments`; its schema is route-independent, and execution refuses unless the exact routed model declares image input. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs-search` | `glob`, `grep` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.subprocess`, `ctx.systemPrompt` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | glob and grep are unconditional discovery tools that spawn the packaged ripgrep binary (`@vscode/ripgrep`) through ctx.subprocess as ordinary foreground calls (never background tasks) — no host `rg` install and no shell layer. The catalog uses `sampleOverCapGlobResults: true`; deployments must choose that behavior explicitly. Capped results save the complete formatted list through the optional ctx.spillStore backend; returned locators are follow-up-readable/searchable when the backend exposes local paths in co-located deployments. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-pty` | `terminal_close`, `terminal_list`, `terminal_open`, `terminal_read`, `terminal_send`, `terminal_signal` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.pty`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `ctx.tasks at call time for run_in_background` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | The six terminal tools are opt-in and complement one-shot bash/filesystem tools. `terminal_send(run_in_background: true)` registers with `ctx.tasks`; TUI, named key sequences, BEL, resize, auto-start, and cross-agent sharing are absent from the schema. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-goal` | `create_goal`, `get_goal`, `update_goal` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.agents`, `ctx.goals`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `a calling Agent in an authorized open turn` | `tool/call`, `goal/change for mutations`, `tool/result` | - | create, edit, pause, and resume require direct-human root authority; complete and blocked also accept the exact current goal round. The default blocked lower bound is three admitted rounds. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-schedule` | `schedule_create`, `schedule_delete`, `schedule_list` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.sessions`, `Session persistence`, `a future live root Agent` | `tool/call`, `schedule/change create or delete`, `tool/result` | - | Registered only inside live root Agent scopes created after the opt-in Schedule plugin loads. Version 1 accepts after_seconds, explicit absolute at, and bounded fixed-rate every_seconds, and discloses session-local delivery; management reads and mutations require the shared Session persistence barrier. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-lsp` | `lsp` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.lsp`, `ctx.systemPrompt` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | The lsp tool keeps provider selection and language-server subprocesses behind ctx.lsp, so its model-visible schema stays stable across providers. Requires a registered provider (e.g. `@deepseek-ai/dsh-lsp-local`) at runtime; without one, a query returns the structured `LSP_UNAVAILABLE` error rather than changing the schema. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-ralph` | `ralph` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.workflows`, `ctx.subagents`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `a calling Agent (exec.agent parents every fresh round)` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `workflow and child session events during execution` | - | A fixed foreground workflow starts one fresh structured child per round; the model selects only the immutable objective and an optional round cap. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-skill` | `skill` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.agents`, `ctx.skills` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `user/message replacement catalogs via agent.inject()` | - | - |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-session-query` | `session_event_read`, `session_event_search`, `session_event_trace`, `session_search`, `session_trace` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `ctx.sessionQuery`, `a calling Agent for workspace authority` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | The five read-only tools hide provider cursors and authorize every result from the immutable calling agent session. The package is opt-in; compositions that need enforced deadlines or bounded inline output also mount the generic timeout or spill policies. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent` | `subagent` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.subagents` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `child session events through the chosen provider` | `subagent`, `subagent_fork` | The registered tool name is the load-time `toolName` config (default `subagent`); the schema above is that default. The shipped compositions load this package once per subagent backend, so the model additionally sees `subagent_fork` bound to the fork backend. Each instance's description and `run_in_background` parameter follow its own `backgroundMode` and `enableRunInBackground`, so the two shipped schemas are not identical: `subagent` is `continuable`, while `subagent_fork` stays `one-shot` — see `packages/bundle/base/cordis.patch.yml` and `examples/acp-agent/cordis.yml`. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent-control` | `interrupt_agent`, `list_agents`, `send_message` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.subagents`, `ctx.agents and ctx.sessionProjections (list_agents only)` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `child session events through ctx.subagents` | - | The globally named control tools over continuable background subagents: provider-bound `tool-subagent` instances register distinct delegation tools, while this package registers `send_message` and `interrupt_agent` once, plus `list_agents` from its separately loaded `/list-agents` plugin (whose catalog rows use the sessionProjections and live Agent registries). |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent-report` | `report` | `ctx.subagents`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `a live continuable in-process child Agent` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `a user-role message in the direct parent session` | - | Registered per continuable in-process child rather than globally, so this schema is visible only inside such a child and survives its global `toolFilter`. The same contribution installs the child-scoped `tool:report` prompt section, which this catalog does not render. The parent-facing `send_message` tool is installed independently. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-tasks` | `task_kill`, `task_list`, `task_output` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.tasks`, `ctx.systemPrompt` | `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `user/message via agent.inject() for background completion notices` | - | The kind-agnostic background-task controller: background bash commands, PTY sends, and subagents are read, listed, and killed through the same three tools. Loading the plugin attaches the controller that arms producers' `ctx.tasks.start()`. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-todo` | `todo_write` | `ctx.tools`, `owning Agent session` | `tool/call`, `todo/write`, `tool/result` | - | todo_write is session-owned state; UIs render the latest todo/write event as a checklist. `allowParallelInProgress` is required with no default, so the catalog states its choice: `true`, whose description invites several `in_progress` items. A deployment choosing `false` receives the same tool with a description asking for exactly one active task. |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-workflow` | `workflow` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.workflows`, `ctx.systemPrompt`, `a calling Agent (exec.agent parents the script children)` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | - |
| `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-web` | `web_fetch`, `web_search` | `ctx.tools`, `ctx.web`, `ctx.systemPrompt` | `tool/call`, `tool/result` | - | web_search and web_fetch keep provider selection behind ctx.web so model-visible schemas stay stable across backend swaps. |

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-ask-user`

### `ask_user_question`

Ask the user a concise question when you need confirmation, a choice, or missing information before proceeding. Send one or more questions, each with a stable id that will be echoed in the answer.

```json

ask_user_question pauses the tool call until the active UI provider returns a human answer.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools`

### `run_code`

Execute a TypeScript program against the available tools. Write the BODY of an async function (erasable syntax only; top-level `await` and `return` work) and call tools as `await tools.name(args)` per the declarations in the system prompt. Only what you print or return comes back — curate it.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "code": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The program: the body of an async TypeScript function."
    },
    "description": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Clear, concise description of what this program does in active voice, 5-10 words (shown in the UI). Examples: \"Count TODO markers across packages\"; \"Read failing test and its fixture\"; \"Rename config key in every cordis.yml\"."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "code",
    "description"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/core/tools/src/code-mode.ts`](../packages/core/tools/src/code-mode.ts)

Owned by the tool registry as a reserved transport outside filterable capability layers under `mode: code` / `mode: both` (see the Code Mode Agent Note). Under `code` it is the registry's only wire contribution; the other visible capabilities are declared in a generated SDK section in the loaded runtime's language, and a program calls them through bindings scheduled under the native concurrency contract (submission-ordered starts and policy; concurrency-safe bodies overlap up to `maxParallelSubCalls`) that re-enter the complete guarded tool pipeline and link each nested execution to this outer result.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-plan-mode`

### `exit_plan_mode`

Use only in plan mode. Present your plan for the user's review and, on approval, leave plan mode. Send the COMPLETE plan as markdown, starting with a # heading that names it. The user may approve (carry out the plan from your next step) or keep planning — their feedback comes back in the tool result; revise and present again.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "plan": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The complete plan, as markdown, starting with a # heading that names it."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "plan"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/plan/plan-mode/src/index.ts`](../packages/plan/plan-mode/src/index.ts)

exit_plan_mode stays in the model-facing schema while planning is inactive so transitions add no tool-catalog churn on top of the plan-policy change. Its execute path rejects calls outside plan mode; in plan mode it presents the plan over the user-interaction seam (approve / keep planning with feedback), and approval logs plan mode inactive at the step boundary.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-bash`

### `bash`

Execute a bash command (`bash -c`) and return its stdout/stderr. Each call runs in a fresh shell: no state (cwd, variables, functions) persists between calls — pass `workdir` instead of using `cd`. Non-zero exits are reported as `[exit code: N]`. Current harness environment facts are exposed through managed `$DSH_*` variables; inspect them when needed. Commands may run under a file sandbox; a blocked file operation is reported as `[sandbox: file access denied under <mode> mode]` — a policy denial, not a bug in the command; do not retry another way. Long output is truncated to its tail; the full output is saved to a file whose path is reported when available. Set `run_in_background: true` for long-running commands: the call returns a task id immediately; read its output with `task_output` and stop it with `task_kill`.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "command": {
      "type": "string",

      "type": "string",
      "description": "Clear, concise description of what this command does in active voice, 5-10 words (shown in the UI). Examples: \"ls\" → \"List files in current directory\"; \"git status\" → \"Show working tree status\"; \"npm install\" → \"Install package dependencies\"."
    },
    "timeoutMs": {
      "type": "number",
      "description": "Timeout in milliseconds. The executor applies its configured default and cap, and kills the command on expiry."
    },
    "workdir": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Working directory for this command. Defaults to the session workspace; a relative path is resolved against it."
    },
    "run_in_background": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "description": "Run in the background and return a task id immediately (collect with task_output, stop with task_kill). No timeout applies."
    }
  },
  "required": [

    "description"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/bash/tool-bash/src/index.ts`](../packages/bash/tool-bash/src/index.ts)

The bash tool is the model-facing consumer of the bash executor seam. A `run_in_background` run registers with the generic `ctx.tasks` runtime and is collected/stopped through the `task_*` tools from `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-tasks`; the `enableRunInBackground` config (default true) removes the parameter entirely when disabled.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-pwsh`

### `pwsh`

Execute a PowerShell command (`pwsh -Command`) and return its stdout/stderr. Each call runs in a fresh pwsh process: no state (cwd, variables, functions) persists between calls — pass `workdir` instead of using `cd`. Paths use native Windows form (`C:\...`); read environment variables with `$env:NAME`. Non-zero exits are reported as `[exit code: N]`. Current harness environment facts are exposed through managed `$env:DSH_*` variables; inspect them when needed. Commands may run under a file sandbox; a blocked file operation is reported as `[sandbox: file access denied under <mode> mode]` — a policy denial, not a bug in the command; do not retry another way. Long output is truncated to its tail; the full output is saved to a file whose path is reported when available. On Windows a force-killed command settles as `[exit code: 1]` without a signal marker — treat it as an interruption, not a command failure. Set `run_in_background: true` for long-running commands: the call returns a task id immediately; read its output with `task_output` and stop it with `task_kill`.

```json

  "type": "object",

}
```

Source: [`packages/bash/tool-pwsh/src/index.ts`](../packages/bash/tool-pwsh/src/index.ts)

The pwsh tool is the PowerShell-dialect consumer of the bash executor seam for Windows compositions (a PowerShell executor such as `@deepseek-ai/dsh-pwsh-local` backs `ctx.bash`); it mirrors the bash tool call-for-call minus sandbox controls — `run_in_background` runs register with the generic `ctx.tasks` runtime and are collected/stopped through the `task_*` tools, and the managed `DSH_*` environment comes from `@deepseek-ai/dsh-bash-env`. Each call runs in a fresh process (no persistent PTY session), with native `C:\...` paths and `$env:NAME` variables.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-cordis`

### `cordis_inspect`

Inspect the live Cordis runtime in the current DSH process. Read-only. Sections: `services` (every provided ctx service and the plugin fiber that owns it), `plugins` (all live plugin fibers with their lifecycle states), `tools` (the model-facing tools currently registered, i.e. what you can call), `temporary` (only temporary Plugins created by cordis_mount: id, name, state, provided services, awaited services, and lifetime), `api` (method signatures AND argument/return type shapes for every LIVE service — read this before writing plugin code that calls a service), `events` (every harness event with its dispatch mode and exact signature — pick listener targets here). Temporary Plugins exist only in memory, remain active across later turns, and disappear after cordis_unmount, toolset unload, or DSH restart; they are not restored automatically. The `temporary` section is a subset of `plugins`. Omit `what` to get all six sections. With `what:"api"` or `what:"events"`, pass an exact `name` to narrow to one service/event and include its original source JSDoc.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "what": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Limit the report to one section. Omit for all sections.",
      "enum": [
        "services",
        "plugins",
        "tools",
        "temporary",
        "api",
        "events"
      ]
    },
    "name": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Exact service key or event name whose original JSDoc to include; valid only with what:\"api\" or what:\"events\"."
    }
  }
}
```

### `cordis_mount`

Mount a temporary Cordis Plugin in the current DSH process. This creates an in-memory runtime Plugin, not an installed or configured Plugin. It remains active across later turns until cordis_unmount, toolset unload, or DSH restart. It does not create files, install a package, change cordis.yml or personal/project config, survive restart, or automatically become permanent. To keep it, ask the Agent to implement an SDK Plugin or installable profile bundle through the regular development workflow. It may affect other sessions in the same process; the sandbox is not a security boundary, and injected services reach the real runtime. `code` runs now as the body of an async JavaScript function in an isolated sandbox and MUST `return` a plugin. Two forms: FUNCTION form `return (ctx) => { … }` — declares no inject, so it can register tools, listen to events, and provide services, but reaching ANY service (e.g. ctx.bash) throws; use it only when you need no services. OBJECT form `return { name?, inject: ['bash', 'llm', …], apply(ctx) { … } }` — declares dependencies, and cordis activates the plugin only after the services exist; PREFER this form. You may reach ONLY the services you list in inject: an undeclared service throws even if it exists, because an undeclared dependency would not be cleaned up if its provider is unmounted. BEFORE calling a service from your code, read cordis_inspect what:"api" — it lists method signatures AND the type shapes of their arguments/returns (do not guess a field's type; e.g. a bash run's stdout is an object, not a string). Inside `apply`, use the standard cordis API: `ctx.on(event, listener)` to observe events (see cordis_inspect what:"events"), or call `harness.registerTool(ctx, harness.defineTool({ name, description, parameters: { text: { type: 'string', required: true } }, output: { schema: { type: 'string' }, render(_args, value) { return [{ type: 'text', text: value }] } }, async execute(args) { return args.text } }))` to give yourself a new tool — it becomes callable on your NEXT step. Tool parameters: each key IS a property — { type: 'string'|'number'|'integer'|'boolean'|'null'|'object'|'array'|'json', required?: true, description?, enum?, const?, items?, properties? }; every direct DSL object declares additionalProperties: true|false, and oneOf: [schema, schema, ...] replaces type for an exact-one union. A raw JSON-Schema { type: 'object', properties, required?: […] } wrapper is also accepted with open-by-default objects. A tool's `execute` MUST return the lossless JSON value declared by `output.schema`; `output.render(args, value)` separately returns Native/model content blocks. Temporary Plugins can COMPOSE: one Plugin may `ctx.provide('name', value)` a service and another may declare `inject: ['name']` to consume it — the consumer stays pending until the provider exists and returns to pending when the provider is unmounted. Everything registered inside `apply` is cleaned up automatically by cordis_unmount. Sandbox globals: `console` (tagged `[cordis:<id>]`, writes through to the harness terminal), `harness.defineTool`, `harness.registerTool`, `btoa`, `atob`, `TextEncoder`, `TextDecoder`. Node APIs are DISABLED — do filesystem/network/timer work through the cordis services, never Node built-ins: `require`, `setTimeout`/`setInterval`, and `fetch` throw redirect errors; `process` and `Buffer` are undefined. Instead use inject: ['fs'] + ctx.fs for files, inject: ['web'] + ctx.web for HTTP, inject: ['bash'] + ctx.bash for processes, and inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout/ctx.setInterval for timing (fiber effects, auto-cleaned when unmounted) — cordis_inspect what:"api" shows what THIS runtime provides. Write PLAIN JavaScript, not TypeScript (no `as`, no type annotations). Cautions: (1) waterfall events (e.g. tools/pre-execute) hand the listener a trailing `next` callback which MUST be called — returning without `next()` SHORT-CIRCUITS the call; prefer plain notification events unless you intend to intercept. (2) Never await something that only resolves after the current turn (your code runs INSIDE a tool call of that turn — it would deadlock). (3) Your `ctx` is a restricted façade: you can register tools, observe events, provide/consume services, and use timers, but framework internals (ctx.root, ctx.fiber, ctx.extend, ctx.plugin, …) are withheld. It is not a security boundary though — the services you inject (e.g. ctx.bash) reach the real runtime.

### `cordis_unmount`

Unmount a current-process temporary Plugin created by cordis_mount. Waits for its tools, listeners, services, timers, and other owned effects to clean up completely. Only dyn-N temporary ids are accepted; this cannot remove Loader, configured, or installed Plugins.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "id": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The temporary Plugin id returned by cordis_mount (for example \"dyn-1\"); valid only in this process and invalid after unmount or restart."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "id"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/self-modification/tool-cordis/src/index.ts`](../packages/self-modification/tool-cordis/src/index.ts)

Not in any shipped tree (a deliberate opt-in — temporary Plugin code reaches the real runtime, see .agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-08-self-referential-cordis-toolset.md). Plugins created by cordis_mount may register ADDITIONAL model-visible tools until unmounted or DSH restarts; a full changed request header logs those tool-set changes.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-bash-persistent`

### `bash`

Run commands in a persistent bash shell. State, including the current directory and exported environment variables, persists across calls for this agent.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "command": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The bash command to run. Relative path is preferred in the command."

  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/pty/tool-bash-persistent/src/index.ts`](../packages/pty/tool-bash-persistent/src/index.ts)

One owner-isolated persistent bash tool; deployment composition supplies the PTY backend and may override the model-facing environment description.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-str-replace-editor`

### `str_replace_editor`

Custom editing tool for viewing, creating and editing files
* State is persistent across command calls and discussions with the user
* If `path` is a file, `view` displays the result of applying `cat -n`. If `path` is a directory, `view` lists non-hidden files and directories up to 2 levels deep
* The `create` command cannot be used if the specified `path` already exists as a file
* If a `command` generates a long output, it will be truncated and marked with `<response clipped>`

Notes for using the `str_replace` command:
* The `old_str` parameter should match EXACTLY one or more consecutive lines from the original file. Be mindful of whitespaces!
* If the `old_str` parameter is not unique in the file, the replacement will not be performed. Make sure to include enough context in `old_str` to make it unique
* The `new_str` parameter should contain the edited lines that should replace the `old_str`

Standalone view/create/unique literal replace/line insert tool over the filesystem seam; it composes with any shell or terminal API.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs`

### `edit`

Edit an existing UTF-8 text file by replacing literal text.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "file_path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Path to edit, resolved by the filesystem backend."

### `read`

Read a UTF-8 text file and return line-numbered content.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "file_path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Path to read, resolved by the filesystem backend."

  "required": [
    "file_path"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/fs/tool-fs/src/index.ts`](../packages/fs/tool-fs/src/index.ts)

### `read_image`

Read a PNG/JPEG/WebP/GIF file and return the image itself. Requires the current model to accept image input.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "file_path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Path to the image file, resolved by the filesystem backend."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "file_path"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/fs/tool-fs/src/index.ts`](../packages/fs/tool-fs/src/index.ts)

### `write`

Create or fully replace a UTF-8 text file.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "file_path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Path to write, resolved by the filesystem backend."
    },
    "content": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Full UTF-8 text content to write."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "file_path",
    "content"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/fs/tool-fs/src/index.ts`](../packages/fs/tool-fs/src/index.ts)

The read-before-write/edit policy is added by `@deepseek-ai/dsh-fs-policy` (an `fs/*` event-gate plugin, no schema change); a deployment that loads these tools is expected to also load it. `read_image` is not registered without `ctx.attachments`; its schema is route-independent, and execution refuses unless the exact routed model declares image input.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-fs-search`

### `glob`

Find files whose paths match a glob pattern. Returns matching file paths — never directories — including hidden and ignored files (VCS metadata directories are excluded). Up to 100 paths come back in modification-time order; a larger result instead returns 100 paths sampled across top-level entries, says so, and reports where the complete sorted list was saved. This tool does not enumerate directory entries.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "pattern": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Glob pattern to match file paths against (e.g. \"**/*.ts\", \"src/**/*.test.js\"). A pattern with no \"/\" matches the basename at any depth, so \"*\" and \"*.ts\" both search the whole tree; include a separator to anchor the depth."
    },
    "path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Directory to search in. Defaults to the session workspace; a relative path resolves against it."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "pattern"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/fs/tool-fs-search/src/index.ts`](../packages/fs/tool-fs-search/src/index.ts)

### `grep`

Search file contents with a ripgrep regular expression. Returns matching lines with line numbers, grouped by file. Returns the first 250 matches inline; a capped result reports where the complete match list was saved. Use read on a matched file for surrounding context.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "pattern": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Regular expression to search for (ripgrep syntax)."
    },
    "path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "File or directory to search. Defaults to the session workspace; a relative path resolves against it."
    },
    "include": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "One glob filter for which files to search (e.g. \"*.ts\", \"*.{js,jsx}\"). Not a list; negation is not supported."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "pattern"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/fs/tool-fs-search/src/index.ts`](../packages/fs/tool-fs-search/src/index.ts)

glob and grep are unconditional discovery tools that spawn the packaged ripgrep binary (`@vscode/ripgrep`) through ctx.subprocess as ordinary foreground calls (never background tasks) — no host `rg` install and no shell layer. The catalog uses `sampleOverCapGlobResults: true`; deployments must choose that behavior explicitly. Capped results save the complete formatted list through the optional ctx.spillStore backend; returned locators are follow-up-readable/searchable when the backend exposes local paths in co-located deployments.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-pty`

### `terminal_close`

Close one persistent terminal and wait until its captured owned process tree is gone.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "sessionId": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Terminal session id."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "sessionId"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts`](../packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts)

### `terminal_list`

List persistent terminal sessions owned by the current agent.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {}
}
```

Source: [`packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts`](../packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts)

### `terminal_open`

Create a persistent, owner-isolated terminal session from a registered backend type. Use this for shell or REPL state that must survive across tool calls.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "type": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Registered terminal backend type, usually \"shell\"."

      "description": "Initial working directory. Defaults to the deployment workspace root."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "type"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts`](../packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts)

### `terminal_read`

Read a bounded page of retained output from a persistent terminal without sending input.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "sessionId": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Terminal session id."
    },

}
```

Source: [`packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts`](../packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts)

### `terminal_send`

Send text to a persistent terminal. By default Enter is submitted and the call waits for a prompt, stdin wait, output silence, timeout, or session exit. Background mode returns a task id for task_output/task_kill.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "sessionId": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Terminal session id returned by terminal_open or terminal_list."

    },
    "submit": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "description": "Submit Enter after text (default true). Set false for control characters or incomplete REPL input."
    },
    "run_in_background": {

### `terminal_signal`

Send an allowed signal to the current foreground process group of a persistent terminal.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "sessionId": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Terminal session id."
    },
    "signal": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Signal to deliver. Shell-targeted SIGKILL is rejected; use terminal_close.",
      "enum": [

        "SIGTSTP",
        "SIGHUP"
      ]
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "sessionId",
    "signal"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts`](../packages/pty/tool-pty/src/index.ts)

The six terminal tools are opt-in and complement one-shot bash/filesystem tools. `terminal_send(run_in_background: true)` registers with `ctx.tasks`; TUI, named key sequences, BEL, resize, auto-start, and cross-agent sharing are absent from the schema.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-goal`

### `create_goal`

Create one persisted same-session completion goal when the current direct human request is a long-running objective that should continue across autonomous goal rounds. You may infer that intent without requiring the user to say "create a goal". Do not use this for trivial single-turn work. Execution rejects non-human and subagent authority.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "objective": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The concrete completion objective inferred from the direct human request."

  },
  "required": [
    "objective"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/goal/tool-goal/src/index.ts`](../packages/goal/tool-goal/src/index.ts)

### `get_goal`

Read the current same-session goal, including its exact id/revision, objective, phase, completed continuation rounds, round limit, blocker reason when present, and whether another continuation is armed. Call this before updating a goal.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {}
}
```

Source: [`packages/goal/tool-goal/src/index.ts`](../packages/goal/tool-goal/src/index.ts)

### `update_goal`

Update the exact current goal revision. edit, pause, and resume require a direct top-level human request. During an automatic continuation of the current goal, complete and blocked are also allowed. blocked is rejected before the configured minimum round count; the model remains responsible for judging that the same condition persisted across those rounds and must explain it in blocked_reason.

```json

Source: [`packages/goal/tool-goal/src/index.ts`](../packages/goal/tool-goal/src/index.ts)

create, edit, pause, and resume require direct-human root authority; complete and blocked also accept the exact current goal round. The default blocked lower bound is three admitted rounds.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-schedule`

### `schedule_create`

Create one reminder in the current session. Supply a non-empty prompt and exactly one selector: a positive safe-integer after_seconds delay, at as a strict offset date-time or local date/time object, or safe-integer every_seconds of at least 300. Fixed-rate reminders stay creation-aligned, skip missed occurrences, and batch one latest occurrence per overdue rule. Delivery is session-local: the reminder runs on time only while this session is live and otherwise becomes overdue until the session is resumed.

List every active reminder in the current session in creation order, including its exact id, UTC target, scheduled or overdue state, and session-local delivery mode.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {}
}
```

Source: [`packages/schedule/tool-schedule/src/tools.ts`](../packages/schedule/tool-schedule/src/tools.ts)

Registered only inside live root Agent scopes created after the opt-in Schedule plugin loads. Version 1 accepts after_seconds, explicit absolute at, and bounded fixed-rate every_seconds, and discloses session-local delivery; management reads and mutations require the shared Session persistence barrier.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-lsp`

### `lsp`

Query a language server for precise code navigation. operation is one of goToDefinition, findReferences, goToImplementation, hover. line and character are one-based UTF-16 cursor coordinates. findReferences includes the declaration.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "operation": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "goToDefinition, findReferences, goToImplementation, or hover.",
      "enum": [
        "goToDefinition",
        "findReferences",
        "goToImplementation",
        "hover"
      ]
    },
    "file_path": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The source file to query, relative to the workspace or absolute."
    },
    "line": {
      "type": "number",
      "description": "One-based line of the cursor."
    },
    "character": {
      "type": "number",
      "description": "One-based UTF-16 column of the cursor."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "operation",
    "file_path",
    "line",
    "character"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/lsp/tool-lsp/src/index.ts`](../packages/lsp/tool-lsp/src/index.ts)

The lsp tool keeps provider selection and language-server subprocesses behind ctx.lsp, so its model-visible schema stays stable across providers. Requires a registered provider (e.g. `@deepseek-ai/dsh-lsp-local`) at runtime; without one, a query returns the structured `LSP_UNAVAILABLE` error rather than changing the schema.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-ralph`

### `ralph`

Run a foreground fresh-agent Ralph loop toward one immutable objective. Use only when the direct human explicitly asks for Ralph or fresh-agent iteration. Each round opens a new child with no parent conversation or prior child session; the shared workspace is long-term memory, and only a bounded structured report crosses rounds. The call returns when a worker reports completion or a concrete blocker, or at the round limit. Ordinary long-running same-session work belongs to goal tools.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "objective": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The immutable completion objective for every fresh Ralph round."
    },
    "maxRounds": {
      "type": "number",
      "description": "Optional positive safe-integer round cap, bounded by the deployment ceiling."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "objective"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/workflow/tool-ralph/src/index.ts`](../packages/workflow/tool-ralph/src/index.ts)

A fixed foreground workflow starts one fresh structured child per round; the model selects only the immutable objective and an optional round cap.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-skill`

### `skill`

Load the full instructions for an available skill. Call this with the exact skill name from the session skill catalog before acting on a task that names or clearly matches that skill.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "name": {

### `session_event_search`

Search prior events in one authorized session; the current session excludes the step performing this call.

```json

### `session_trace`

Read the authorized session lineage around one session, including complete visible ancestor and descendant relationships.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "session_id": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Target session id. Omit for the current session."
    }
  }
}
```

Source: [`packages/session-query/tool-session-query/src/index.ts`](../packages/session-query/tool-session-query/src/index.ts)

The five read-only tools hide provider cursors and authorize every result from the immutable calling agent session. The package is opt-in; compositions that need enforced deadlines or bounded inline output also mount the generic timeout or spill policies.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent`

### `subagent`

Delegate a self-contained task to a subagent (a separate agent that works in its own context) and return its final result. Use this to offload focused, independent work — research, a scoped implementation, an analysis — so it does not consume this conversation's context. The subagent runs to completion and you receive only its final answer, not its intermediate steps. Give it a complete, standalone prompt: it does not see this conversation. Set `run_in_background: true` to return a task id; collect with `task_output` and stop with `task_kill`.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "description": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "A short (3-5 word) description of the delegated task, for display."
    },
    "prompt": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The complete, self-contained task for the subagent. It does not share this conversation's context, so include everything it needs."
    },
    "run_in_background": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "description": "Run as a background task and return its id; collect with task_output or stop with task_kill."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "description",
    "prompt"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/subagent/tool-subagent/src/index.ts`](../packages/subagent/tool-subagent/src/index.ts)

The registered tool name is the load-time `toolName` config (default `subagent`); the schema above is that default. The shipped compositions load this package once per subagent backend, so the model additionally sees `subagent_fork` bound to the fork backend. Each instance's description and `run_in_background` parameter follow its own `backgroundMode` and `enableRunInBackground`, so the two shipped schemas are not identical: `subagent` is `continuable`, while `subagent_fork` stays `one-shot` — see `packages/bundle/base/cordis.patch.yml` and `examples/acp-agent/cordis.yml`.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent-control`

### `interrupt_agent`

Request cancellation of a background agent's current turn by its agent id. The target may be your direct child or a deeper agent created under you. Only the current turn stops: messages already queued for the agent stay parked until a later send_message, agents it started keep running, and the agent itself stays available for follow-ups. This call returns as soon as the stop request is accepted, so the target may keep running briefly; interrupting an agent that already finished is an accepted no-op.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "agent_id": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The agent id of the running agent to interrupt."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "agent_id"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/subagent/tool-subagent-control/src/index.ts`](../packages/subagent/tool-subagent-control/src/index.ts)

### `list_agents`

List your continuable background subagents by durable id and label. Use it to recall which ones you started, not to poll for completion — you are told when one finishes. Status comes from the live registry: running means the agent is working right now, idle means it is loaded but between turns (it may be waiting on agents it started), and ready means it exists only in storage — resumable, not terminal, and not a result waiting to be collected; a `send_message` starts a new turn on the same conversation, and a direct child remains a `send_message` candidate in every status. The snapshot is not a delivery promise — `send_message` performs the authoritative check and may still fail. Children that could not be read are reported as diagnostics instead of being silently dropped. Scope `descendants` walks the whole tree below you in stable pre-order, annotating each entry with its durable direct-parent session id and depth. You may use `send_message` only for depth-1 entries; deeper entries are candidates for `interrupt_agent` only.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "scope": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "children (default) lists direct children only; descendants walks the complete tree below you.",
      "enum": [
        "children",
        "descendants"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

Source: [`packages/subagent/tool-subagent-control/src/list-agents.ts`](../packages/subagent/tool-subagent-control/src/list-agents.ts)

### `send_message`

Send a message to a background subagent by its subagent id, continuing the same conversation. It becomes the subagent's next turn: if it is still working, the message waits until its current turn finishes, so it cannot redirect work already underway. This call returns no answer from the subagent — only confirmation that the message was delivered — so use it to give it more work. A failure means the message was NOT delivered.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "subagent_id": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The subagent id returned when the background subagent was started."
    },
    "message": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The message to deliver to the subagent."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "subagent_id",
    "message"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/subagent/tool-subagent-control/src/index.ts`](../packages/subagent/tool-subagent-control/src/index.ts)

The globally named control tools over continuable background subagents: provider-bound `tool-subagent` instances register distinct delegation tools, while this package registers `send_message` and `interrupt_agent` once, plus `list_agents` from its separately loaded `/list-agents` plugin (whose catalog rows use the sessionProjections and live Agent registries).

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-subagent-report`

### `report`

Report selected content to the agent that started you. Call this once before you finish, with a self-contained final result, and earlier for progress or findings that change what that agent does next. That agent shares your workspace but does not automatically receive your transcript, tool output, or reasoning, so finishing your work is not itself a result. Reporting does not end your turn or finish your work, and only your direct parent receives it. A failed call may still have arrived, so do not blindly repeat it.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "output": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Actionable content for your parent; summarize conclusions and reference relevant shared paths."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "output"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/subagent/tool-subagent-report/src/index.ts`](../packages/subagent/tool-subagent-report/src/index.ts)

Registered per continuable in-process child rather than globally, so this schema is visible only inside such a child and survives its global `toolFilter`. The same contribution installs the child-scoped `tool:report` prompt section, which this catalog does not render. The parent-facing `send_message` tool is installed independently.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-tasks`

### `task_kill`

Request cancellation of a running background task by task id. Returns immediately; the task settles as killed once its work actually stops.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "task_id": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Task id returned by the tool that started the background work."
    },
    "reason": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Optional short reason, recorded in the log and forwarded to the task."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "task_id"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/tasks/tool-tasks/src/index.ts`](../packages/tasks/tool-tasks/src/index.ts)

### `task_list`

List your background tasks (running and finished) with their ids, kinds, and statuses.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {}
}
```

Source: [`packages/tasks/tool-tasks/src/index.ts`](../packages/tasks/tool-tasks/src/index.ts)

### `task_output`

Read a background task. Stream tasks return only output since the previous read; final-output tasks return their result after settlement. Every response ends with `[status: ...]`. Reads are non-blocking unless `wait: true`, which waits up to the configured cap.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "task_id": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Task id returned by the tool that started the background work."
    },
    "wait": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "description": "Block until the task reaches a terminal status or the timeout expires. A timed-out wait returns [status: running] and leaves the task alive."
    },
    "timeout_ms": {
      "type": "number",
      "description": "Max wait in milliseconds (only meaningful with wait: true). Defaults to the configured wait timeout; capped by the configured maximum."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "task_id"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/tasks/tool-tasks/src/index.ts`](../packages/tasks/tool-tasks/src/index.ts)

The kind-agnostic background-task controller: background bash commands, PTY sends, and subagents are read, listed, and killed through the same three tools. Loading the plugin attaches the controller that arms producers' `ctx.tasks.start()`.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-todo`

### `todo_write`

Record and update a structured task list for the current work. Send the ENTIRE list every call — it REPLACES the previous list (there are no partial updates, no per-item edits). Use it to plan multi-step work and show progress: add one todo per concrete step before you start. Mark every todo being actively worked on `in_progress` — several at once when work genuinely runs in parallel (e.g. concurrent subagents or background commands), one for sequential work; while work remains, at least one task should be `in_progress`. Mark a todo `completed` the moment it is done (do not batch completions), and allow no `in_progress` item only once all work is complete. Skip the list for trivial single-step tasks. Statuses: `pending` (not started), `in_progress` (being worked on now), `completed` (finished).

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "todos": {
      "type": "array",
      "description": "The COMPLETE task list, replacing any previous list.",
      "items": {
        "type": "object",
        "additionalProperties": false,
        "properties": {
          "content": {
            "type": "string",

          },
          "status": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "pending (not started) | in_progress (now) | completed (done).",
            "enum": [
              "pending",
              "in_progress",
              "completed"
            ]
          }
        },
        "required": [
          "content",
          "status"
        ]
      }
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "todos"
  ]
}
```

Source: [`packages/todo/tool-todo/src/index.ts`](../packages/todo/tool-todo/src/index.ts)

todo_write is session-owned state; UIs render the latest todo/write event as a checklist. `allowParallelInProgress` is required with no default, so the catalog states its choice: `true`, whose description invites several `in_progress` items. A deployment choosing `false` receives the same tool with a description asking for exactly one active task.

## `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-workflow`

### `workflow`

Run a JavaScript workflow script that orchestrates subagents at scale. Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn.

The workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, provider?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result.

Script-body hooks:
- `agent(prompt, opts?): Promise<any>` — run one subagent to completion. Without `opts.schema` it resolves to the child's final text; with `opts.schema` (an object-rooted JSON Schema using ONLY type/properties/required/additionalProperties/items/enum/const/oneOf — no pattern/format/numeric bounds) it resolves to the validated object. Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), and independent `provider`/`model` LLM target overrides (either may be provided alone). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly.
- `pipeline(items, ...stages): Promise<any[]>` — run each item through the stages independently with NO barrier between stages (prefer this for multi-stage work). Each stage receives `(prev, item, index)`. An ordinary stage throw drops that ITEM to `null` and skips its remaining stages.
- `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`.
- `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim.

Misused hooks (bad arguments, unknown options, unsupported schemas, tripped caps) throw errors that ALWAYS kill the script — they never dissolve into a per-item `null`.

Constraints: concurrency and total-agent caps apply; no filesystem, network, timers, or Node.js APIs are provided — the agents do the work, the script only coordinates them. The run executes in the foreground: this call returns when the whole script finishes.

### `web_fetch`

Fetch the content of a specific HTTP(S) URL and return it decoded to text.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "url": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The HTTP(S) URL to fetch."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "url"
  ]
}
```

### `web_search`

Search the web for current information. Returns an optional summary answer and a list of source URLs.

```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "query": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The search query."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "query"
  ]
}
```

web_search and web_fetch keep provider selection behind ctx.web so model-visible schemas stay stable across backend swaps.
