Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into session-surface
Reconcile the session-surface feature with master's package reorg and simplifications: - Adopt master's folded usage (assistant/message.usage; standalone `usage` event dropped) and re-attach surface metadata (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs). - Add surface opts to master's new max-tokens assistant/message append. - Port surface columns onto the coordinator-refactored SQLite backend at its new path; drop the dead v1->v2 migration (bump-and-reject, no migration per pre-release policy). - Move the session-surface RFC into implemented/architecture/ and refresh its stale body (no migration, SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION=0, renamed package paths). - Update the core-data-structures catalog SessionEvent blocks for the two new surface fields; regenerate the cordis catalog. - Re-harvest ACP snapshot fixtures (keyless replay) to carry surface metadata.

# Core Data Structures
|
||||
|
||||
This folder catalogs the **data structures** of the DeepSeek Harness — what each core type represents, its literal shape, and where the full detail lives. It complements [architecture.md](../architecture.md), which describes *behavior* (the service map, the session/turn/step lifecycle, the event taxonomy); this page describes the *vocabulary* that behavior moves around.
|
||||
|
||||
## What counts as "core"
|
||||
|
||||
The harness is a microkernel: a tiny core plus many plugins. Most types belong to one plugin or one capability. A handful, though, are the **spine** — the language the agent loop and its events traffic in on *every* turn, no matter which optional plugins are loaded. Those are "core".
|
||||
|
||||
Precisely, a data structure is **core** if either:
|
||||
|
||||
1. it flows through the agent-loop spine — the loop holds it, derives it, streams it, or logs it on every turn (a `Message`, a `StreamChunk`, a `SessionEvent`, the `Agent` handle itself), independent of which plugins are present; **or**
|
||||
2. it is the single headline type a plugin author writes against a pipeline — `ToolDefinition` (what every tool *is*).
|
||||
|
||||
Everything else is documented on a **sub-page**, not here. The rule that draws the line: *the type you write, hold, or receive is core; the machinery that types it, renders it, or persists it is a sub-page detail.* So `ToolDefinition` is core, but the `SchemaSpec`/`InferArgs` DSL that types it, the `ToolCallPresentation` vocabulary that renders it, and the `SessionPersistence` seam that stores the event log are not — they live on the sub-pages below.
|
||||
|
||||
| Sub-page | Owns |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md) | the `StreamChunk` wire protocol + adapter contract, `BlockAssembler`, the `LlmAdapter` seam |
|
||||
| [session.md](session.md) | the full `SessionEventMap` variant catalog, `TurnTrigger`/`TurnEndReason`, `deriveMessages()`, the turn-enclosure invariant |
|
||||
| [persistence.md](persistence.md) | the durability seam: `SessionPersistence`, JSONL + SQLite backends, `session/flush`, crash recovery, `SessionHeader` |
|
||||
| [tools.md](tools.md) | `ToolDefinition` full fields, the schema DSL, `ToolExecution`/`ToolResult`, tool-presentation UI types, the `tools/execute` waterfall |
|
||||
| [bash.md](bash.md) | the bash executor seam: `BashExecRequest`/`Spec`, `BashRunResult`, background `BashTask`s |
|
||||
|
||||
> Type definitions on this page are pasted **verbatim** from source and drift-checked by `pnpm run verify-type-equiv` (see [development.md](../development.md#documenting-types-verbatim-ts-type-equiv)). Inline JSDoc is omitted for readability; follow the source link for the full contracts.
|
||||
|
||||
## The `…Map → derived-union` pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Almost every extensible sum type in the harness follows one shape: an interface keyed by a discriminant tag (the `…Map`), from which the union is derived with `keyof`. Plugins add variants by **declaration merging** — no edit to the owning package.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts ignore-check
|
||||
// The pattern, schematically:
|
||||
interface ThingMap {
|
||||
'a': { kind: 'a'; /* … */ }
|
||||
'b': { kind: 'b'; /* … */ }
|
||||
}
|
||||
type ThingKind = keyof ThingMap // 'a' | 'b'
|
||||
type Thing = ThingMap[keyof ThingMap] // the discriminated union
|
||||
|
||||
// A plugin extends it without touching the source package:
|
||||
declare module '@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm' {
|
||||
interface ThingMap {
|
||||
'c': { kind: 'c'; /* … */ }
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Six canonical maps use this pattern; a plugin author extends these:
|
||||
|
||||
| Map | Package | Derives | Catalog |
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `ContentBlockMap` | dsh-llm | `ContentBlock` | [below](#content-blocks-and-messages) |
|
||||
| `MessageSourceMap` | dsh-llm | `MessageSource` | [below](#content-blocks-and-messages) |
|
||||
| `FinishReasonMap` | dsh-llm | `FinishReason` | [below](#the-model-request-and-result) |
|
||||
| `TurnTriggerMap` | dsh-session | `TurnTrigger` | [session.md](session.md) |
|
||||
| `TurnEndReasonMap` | dsh-session | `TurnEndReason` | [session.md](session.md) |
|
||||
| `SessionEventMap` | dsh-session | `SessionEvent` | [session.md](session.md) |
|
||||
|
||||
Two large discriminated unions are the ones consumers `switch` over most: **`StreamChunk`** (the streaming protocol) and **`SessionEvent`** (the log entry). Per the repo convention, `switch` on the tag — don't chain `if`s — so each arm narrows and a typo'd tag fails to compile.
|
||||
|
||||
## Branded IDs
|
||||
|
||||
IDs that cross package boundaries are **branded** — structurally strings, but non-interchangeable at the type level (an `AgentId` can't be passed where a `CallId` is expected). Construction goes through a per-type factory; comparison, logging, and JSON behave as ordinary strings.
|
||||
|
||||
The `Branded<B>` primitive lives in its own type-only package, [dsh-brand](../../packages/util/brand) (no runtime code, no harness-package dependency), so any package can brand the ids it owns without depending on an unrelated capability package (e.g. dsh-bash brands `BashTaskId`/`OwnerToken` via dsh-brand alone, never pulling in dsh-llm).
|
||||
|
||||
Source: [`packages/util/brand/src/index.ts`](../../packages/util/brand/src/index.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
type Branded<B extends string> = string & { readonly [BRAND]: B }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The three core IDs: `CallId` (correlates a tool call with its result; dsh-llm), `SessionId` (dsh-session), `AgentId` (dsh-agent). Each is `Branded<'CallId'>` etc. plus a same-named factory function. Capability seams brand their own ids too — see `BashTaskId`/`OwnerToken` in [bash.md](bash.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Content blocks and messages
|
||||
|
||||
A conversation is `Message`s; a message is an array of typed **content blocks**. The block union derives from `ContentBlockMap`.
|
||||
|
||||
Source: [`packages/llm/llm/src/types.ts`](../../packages/llm/llm/src/types.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
interface ContentBlockMap {
|
||||
'text': TextBlock
|
||||
'reasoning': ReasoningBlock
|
||||
'tool-call': ToolCallBlock
|
||||
'tool-result': ToolResultBlock
|
||||
'image': ImageBlock
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The block interfaces (full fields in source): `TextBlock` (`text`), `ReasoningBlock` (thinking, distinct from visible text), `ToolCallBlock` (`id: CallId`, `name`, raw-JSON `arguments`), `ToolResultBlock` (`toolCallId`, nested `content: ContentBlock[]`, `isError?`), `ImageBlock` (`url`, `mimeType?`). `ContentBlock = ContentBlockMap[ContentBlockType]`.
|
||||
|
||||
A `Message` is a role plus blocks:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
interface Message {
|
||||
role: 'system' | 'user' | 'assistant'
|
||||
content: ContentBlock[]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Where a message came from is itself a merge-extensible sum type:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
interface MessageSourceMap {
|
||||
user: { kind: 'user' }
|
||||
plugin: { kind: 'plugin'; plugin: string }
|
||||
agent: { kind: 'agent'; agentId: string }
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Streaming
|
||||
|
||||
Adapters emit a raw **chunk** protocol; the loop logs the chunks (replay fidelity) while feeding the same chunks through a `BlockAssembler` to rebuild blocks and messages. `StreamChunk` is a closed discriminated union over `type` — `block-start`, `text-delta`, `reasoning-delta`, `tool-call-delta`, `block-end`, `usage`, `finish`.
|
||||
|
||||
The full union, the adapter contract (usage-before-finish, raw-JSON tool arguments, the two sanctioned error paths), and `BlockAssembler` live on **[llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md)**.
|
||||
|
||||
## The model request
|
||||
|
||||
One model call is a fully-assembled `GenerateOptions`. The adapter answers with a raw `StreamChunk` stream; the consumer assembles it with `BlockAssembler` (see [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md)).
|
||||
|
||||
Source: [`packages/llm/llm/src/types.ts`](../../packages/llm/llm/src/types.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
interface GenerateOptions {
|
||||
model: string
|
||||
messages: Message[]
|
||||
/** System prompt text (adapters map to the provider's system slot). */
|
||||
system?: string
|
||||
/** Tool schemas (adapters map to the provider's `tools` field). */
|
||||
tools?: ToolSchema[]
|
||||
/** Assistant prefix continuation (prefill). */
|
||||
prefill?: ContentBlock[]
|
||||
temperature?: number
|
||||
maxTokens?: number
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Stop sequences: generation halts as soon as the model produces any one of
|
||||
* these strings (adapters map to the provider's stop field, e.g. OpenAI
|
||||
* `stop`). The stop string itself is not included in the output.
|
||||
*/
|
||||
stop?: string[]
|
||||
signal?: AbortSignal
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Why a model response stopped is a merge-extensible reason:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
interface FinishReasonMap {
|
||||
'stop': { kind: 'stop' }
|
||||
'tool-calls': { kind: 'tool-calls' }
|
||||
'max-tokens': { kind: 'max-tokens' }
|
||||
'aborted': { kind: 'aborted' }
|
||||
'error': { kind: 'error'; message: string; code?: string }
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`FinishReason = FinishReasonMap[keyof FinishReasonMap]`. `TokenUsage` (per-call accounting with disjoint cache fields) is detailed on [llm-streaming.md](llm-streaming.md).
|
||||
|
||||
`GenerateOptions.tools` carries `ToolSchema` — the JSON-schema description of a tool, as sent to the model. It is declared in dsh-llm (not dsh-tools) precisely because it is part of the request the loop assembles every step:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
interface ToolSchema {
|
||||
name: string
|
||||
description: string
|
||||
/** JSON Schema object for the arguments. */
|
||||
parameters: Record<string, unknown>
|
||||
strict?: boolean
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The model-facing `ToolSchema` is the wire shape; the registered `ToolDefinition` that produces it (schema + `execute`) is on [tools.md](tools.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Sessions
|
||||
|
||||
A `Session` is an **append-only log** of typed `SessionEvent`s — the single source of truth. The LLM message history is *derived* from the log (`deriveMessages()`), not stored separately. The event vocabulary derives from `SessionEventMap`:
|
||||
|
||||
Source: [`packages/core/session/src/types.ts`](../../packages/core/session/src/types.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
```ts type-equiv
|
||||
type SessionEvent<T extends SessionEventType = SessionEventType> = {
|
||||
[K in SessionEventType]: {
|
||||
type: K
|
||||
/** Monotonic sequence number within the session. */
|
||||
seq: number
|
||||
/** Unix epoch milliseconds. */
|
||||
time: number
|
||||
data: SessionEventMap[K]
|
||||
} & (K extends SurfaceEventType ? {
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Seq numbers of events that are provenance sources of this event
|
||||
* (e.g. the `assistant/chunk` seqs that built an `assistant/message`,
|
||||
* or the surface nodes shadowed by a compaction marker).
|
||||
*/
|
||||
sourceEventSeqs?: number[]
|
||||
/** How this event entered the surface; absent for non-surface events. */
|
||||
surfaceOp?: SurfaceOp
|
||||
} : object)
|
||||
}[T]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The eleven event variants (`turn/start`, `turn/end`, `step/start`, `step/end`, `user/message`, `context/message`, `assistant/chunk`, `assistant/message`, `tool/call`, `tool/result`, `steering/message`), the `deriveMessages()` projection rules, the `TurnTrigger`/`TurnEndReason` reasons, and the turn-enclosure invariant are on **[session.md](session.md)**. How the log is made durable — the `SessionPersistence` seam, JSONL/SQLite backends, the `session/flush` checkpoint, crash recovery, and `SessionHeader` — is on **[persistence.md](persistence.md)**.
|
||||
|
||||
## The agent handle
|
||||
|
||||
`Agent` is the surface every plugin (UI, hooks, orchestrators) programs against. The concrete implementation is `ReactLoopAgent` in dsh-agent-loop; nothing outside the loop depends on the implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
Source: [`packages/core/agent/src/types.ts`](../../packages/core/agent/src/types.ts)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
interface Agent {
|
||||
readonly id: AgentId
|
||||
readonly options: AgentOptions
|

|

|

* request sees at its chronological position, rendered as tagged synthetic
|
||||
* context rather than a user prompt. Does not run the model.
|
||||
*

||||

|
||||
* durability, so every event stays inside a turn and a persistence backend
|
||||
* never loses a between-turn notice. The idle checkpoint is fire-and-forget
|
||||
* (inject is synchronous): a failing flush is reported via `agent/error`
|
||||
* (step `0`) and the logger, never thrown into the caller.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Live-adapter review has validated the tagged-envelope rendering against
|
||||
* current DeepSeek behavior; provider-specific mismatches belong in that
|
||||
* adapter, not in the canonical session vocabulary.

|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`AgentStatus` is `'idle' | 'running' | 'disposed'`. `AgentId` is a branded string. `AgentOptions` (`model?`, `systemPrompt?`) is merge-extensible — plugins add creation options by declaration merging. The `agent/*` event taxonomy (lifecycle, turn/step boundaries, the `agent/request`/`agent/step-result`/`agent/turn-continuation` waterfalls) is in [architecture.md § Event taxonomy](../architecture.md#event-taxonomy).
|
||||
|
||||
## `ToolDefinition`
|
||||
|
||||
The one pipeline-authoring type that is core: what every registered tool *is* — a model-facing `ToolSchema` plus an `execute` function and optional UI presenters. A tool author rarely constructs it by hand (the `defineTool` DSL builds it with typed args), but it is the contract the registry holds and the loop dispatches through.
|
||||
|
||||
Its full fields, the `defineTool`/`SchemaSpec`/`InferArgs` typed schema DSL, the `ToolExecution`/`ToolExecutionResult` waterfall shapes, and the tool-presentation UI vocabulary are on **[tools.md](tools.md)**.
