fix(review): contain provider-removed listener failures; pin the model-via-request path
ds-review-bot round 2, both warnings:
- subagent/provider-removed now routes through emitLifecycle (per-listener
containment, the subagent/start|end precedent) instead of raw ctx.emit,
whose dispatch halts on the first throw: a throwing subscriber can no
longer starve a later mirror into keeping a stale tool, nor disrupt the
backend fiber's teardown mid-disposer. provider-added deliberately keeps
propagation (register-time rollback semantics, like the system-prompt
registries); the asymmetry is documented on emitLifecycle, the event
JSDoc, and the provider-lifecycle RFC.
- The documented model-via-agent/request fallback composes with a
{{model}} persona via the ownership rule itself: the plugin supplying
the model late states it early on the system-prompt/assemble waterfall.
Declined re-ordering render after agent/request — it would break the
agent/pre-step contract (compaction must measure the prompt the model
sees). New loop test pins the supply path end-to-end; the RFC's
{{model}} consequence bullet now covers supply as well as switch.

## Consequences

|

- Every fact in the assembled prompt now has exactly one owner, and the hand-maintained tool prose in leaf YAML is gone: loading or dropping a tool plugin no longer means editing any deployment's persona.
|
||||
- `{{model}}` reflects `AgentOptions.model` at assembly time. A plugin that switches models in the `agent/request` waterfall makes the prompt's claim stale for that step; such a plugin can rewrite `options.system` in the same waterfall if it cares. Accepted.
|

- `{{model}}` reflects `AgentOptions.model` at assembly time. A plugin that switches models in the `agent/request` waterfall makes the prompt's claim stale for that step, and one that SUPPLIES the model there (options.model unset — the loop's documented fallback) leaves the variable valueless at render, failing a `{{model}}` persona before the waterfall runs. Both have the same remedy, and it is the ownership rule itself: the plugin that owns the late-bound model fact states it early on the `system-prompt/assemble` waterfall (`assembly.variables['model'] = …`) — one owner, both statements; a loop test pins the supply path end-to-end. Accepted.
|
||||
- While a bound provider is absent (not yet activated, unloaded, mid-HMR-reload), the subagent tool does not exist and a model request in that window simply lacks it. That is the honest state — the alternative was a registered tool whose description or execution could not be trusted.
|
||||
- Strictness means a persona can fail a turn at render (e.g. `{{cwd}}` on a cwd-less session). The failure is contained — the turn ends `error`, the loop survives — and it is an authoring error we WANT loud.
|
||||
- No escape syntax for a literal `{{name}}` in prompt prose yet; add one if a real prompt ever needs it.

## Consequences
|

|

- Consumers deriving state from a named provider react to `subagent/provider-added`/`-removed` instead of reading the registry at `apply` time; `dsh-tool-subagent` is the reference implementation. The [events catalog](../../../cordis-catalog/events.md) carries the exact signatures, and the [producer/consumer map](../../../event-producer-consumer.md) shows `dsh-subagent` emitting and `dsh-tool-subagent` consuming both events.

|
||||
- **The two emits carry asymmetric failure semantics, deliberately.** `provider-removed` fires inside the registration's disposer and is delivered with PER-LISTENER containment (the service's `emitLifecycle`, not raw `ctx.emit`, which halts dispatch on the first throw): a throwing subscriber is logged, never starves a later mirror into holding a stale tool, and never disrupts the backend fiber's teardown — dispose reaches quiescence. `provider-added` propagates: it fires at registration time, where a throwing listener unwinds the yielded rollback — the same fail-loud register-time semantics as the system-prompt registries. The run-time backstop bounds what a stale mirror could cost anyway: `start()` re-resolves the provider by name per run, so a tool that outlived its provider fails that call cleanly instead of dispatching into a dead backend. The [events catalog](../../../cordis-catalog/events.md) carries the exact signatures, and the [producer/consumer map](../../../event-producer-consumer.md) shows `dsh-subagent` emitting and `dsh-tool-subagent` consuming both events.
|
||||
- **A window where the tool is absent.** Between backend disposal and re-registration (an HMR reload), the model sees no subagent tool. This is the honest state — the alternative is a tool that dispatches into nothing — and the tool registry's `tools/change` emit keeps prompt assembly current.
|
||||
- **Two waiting fibers sharing a `toolName` is an invalid config caught late.** If two loads of `dsh-tool-subagent` name different providers but the same `toolName`, both wait, and whichever provider arrives first registers; the second registration throws only when ITS provider arrives. `TODO(subagent-dup-toolname)` in the plugin records this blast radius; the tool registry's duplicate-name rejection remains the backstop.
