### The request envelope: `LlmCallConfig` and the logged header
Requests are built by the loop, not shaped per call: the non-history half of a request — the `EpochHeader`: this call configuration plus the rendered system prompt, the tool schemas in the authoritative returned assembly order (initially canonicalized by dsh-system-prompt's `toolOrder` config, or lexicographically when unset), and the session prefix — is logged session state (`request/header` snapshot and delta events, [session.md](session.md#the-request-header-events-requestheader-and-requestheader-delta)), so every conversation request is a pure function of the session log ([reconstructability RFC](../rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-05-reconstructable-requests.md)). The `agent/request` waterfall receives a frozen `LlmCallConfig` seed and a listener returns a replacement to switch model or sampling; the `agent/session-prefix` waterfall — fired once per loop instance — composes the request-only messages fronting the derived history (recorded as the header's `messagePrefix`) — the loop logs whatever the request actually uses. Loop-built requests arrive at `llm/stream` deep-frozen; mutation throws.

Loop-built requests arrive at `llm/stream` deep-frozen; mutation throws.
On the wire, a loop-built request reads in this order: the `system` slot (the rendered prompt assembly) → `messagePrefix` (the frozen session prefix) → the derived history — the boundary snapshot, whose tail is the newest `user/message` on a turn's first step and the previous step's tool results on later steps. The prefix never enters the derived history; its durable record is the header events, and the dev invariant recomputes exactly this equation against every loop-built request.

### The request header events: `request/header` and `request/header-delta`
### The request header event: `request/header`
The request envelope — the `EpochHeader` (call config + rendered system prompt + assembled tool schemas + the session prefix) — is logged session state, so every conversation request is a pure function of the log (the reconstructability RFC). A `request/header` snapshot (reason `'initial' | 'resume' | 'fallback'`) anchors the fold at conversation birth, process boundaries, and delta-encoding fallbacks; `request/header-delta` events amend it mid-run. `foldRequestHeader(events)` reconstructs the header any request was built under; the writer round-trip-verifies every delta before logging it, so a well-formed log always folds. Neither is a `SurfaceEventType` — they produce no LLM message.

Canonical form: an empty system prompt, an empty tool list, and an empty session prefix are ABSENT fields, matching how requests are built. `messagePrefix` is the durable record of the `agent/session-prefix` waterfall's product (the request is `messagePrefix + derived history`); composed once per loop instance and anchored by that instance's snapshot, so the loop never produces a prefix delta in practice — the delta arm (whole-array replacement, an empty array encoding the transition back to absence) exists for codec totality. The other delta payloads (`SystemDelta` — a common-prefix/suffix line trim; `ToolsDelta` — name-keyed added/removed/changed) live beside the events in [`packages/core/session/src/types.ts`](../../packages/core/session/src/types.ts).

## Derived history: `deriveMessages()` and `deriveEventMessage()`
`Session.deriveMessages()` projects the event log into the `Message[]` the model sees — cached (each surface node projected once, when first seen; a surface rewrite rebuilds) and frozen (a fresh array per call over shared, deep-frozen messages, so mutating logged history through a projection is unrepresentable). `deriveEventMessage(event)` is the per-node pure function the fold applies — public so external reconstructors and the dev invariant project a log prefix with exactly the same rules and cannot disagree with the cache.
