+# RFC: The background task runtime (`ctx.tasks`) and generic task control tools
+
+Status: implemented
+
+## Problem
+
+Background bash originally combined two responsibilities: the bash executor ran processes and also managed task ids, ownership, incremental reads, cancellation, completion listeners, and model-facing control tools. Adding background subagents required the same lifecycle and interaction contract. Implementing that contract independently for every long-running capability would duplicate isolation, cleanup, notification, and prompt behavior while teaching the model a different collect-and-stop protocol for each producer.
+
+The task registry, control tools, and completion notices form one harness capability. Bash and subagents should supply execution-specific hooks without owning generic task behavior.
+
+## Decision
+
+The `tasks/` package group owns background-task semantics:
+
+- `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tasks` registers running work as `ctx.tasks` and owns task ids, authorization, snapshots, reads, cancellation, waiting, completion listeners, and cleanup.
+- `@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-tasks` exposes `task_output`, `task_list`, and `task_kill`, injects completion notices, and supplies the background-task system-prompt guidance.
+
+Long-running tools are producers. `dsh-tool-bash` adapts a `BashProcess` into incremental output and process cancellation; `dsh-tool-subagent` adapts a child run into final output and child disposal. The execution seams remain independent of sessions and the task registry.
+
+`TaskService` is a concrete, process-local service. TODO(task-service-backend): separate its public contract from the implementation when a second backend defines the required lifecycle; a systemd-backed runtime is one plausible driver, but this PR does not speculate about its durability, reconnect, ownership, or observation semantics.
+
+## Runtime contract
+
+The literal types live in the [task data-structure catalog](../../../core-data-structures/tasks.md). A producer calls `ctx.tasks.start()` with a kind, label, optional owning `Agent`, and a `run()` function. The runtime completes all failable preflight work before calling `run()` and invokes it once. After `run()` returns hooks, registration commits without another failable step; a producer cannot start work that lacks a collectable task id.
+
+The producer hooks define three responsibilities:
+
+- `cancel(reason?)` synchronously requests termination, is idempotent, and must cause `done` to settle.
+- `done` never rejects and settles only after the producer has released the task's resources.
+- Optional `readOutput()` returns the next consuming output delta. Omitting it declares a final-output task whose terminal result comes from `TaskOutcome.output`.
+
+Statuses are `running`, `stopping`, `completed`, `killed`, and `failed`. Producer-specific information such as an exit code or stop reason belongs in `detail`; the registry does not interpret it. Task kinds form a merge-extensible string union, and task ids are branded and generated as `<kind>-N`, with a counter per kind.
+
+The runtime attaches one continuation to `done`, records the first terminal outcome, resolves waiters, and invokes completion listeners with per-listener error containment. First-wins settlement matters during teardown: if `cancel` throws, the runtime force-fails the record and warns that work may be orphaned rather than waiting forever for a promise that may never settle. A later producer outcome cannot overwrite that diagnosis or notify twice. A `cancel` that returns without eventually settling `done` still blocks teardown because the runtime cannot distinguish it from a slow, valid stop.
+
+Task registrations are not effects of the producer tool fiber. Reloading a tool or control-surface plugin therefore does not kill work owned by an agent and backend. The task service's own disposal cancels all live tasks and awaits contract-compliant producers.
+
+## Authorization and owner lifecycle
+
+Task ids are runtime-global and predictable, so every access is authorized by the registry. `get`, `read`, `wait`, and `kill` accept the calling `Agent`; `list` returns only tasks visible to that caller. An owned task is accessible only to the exact owning session. Unowned tasks are open to non-agent callers and die with the task service.
+
+The snapshot stores the owner's branded `SessionId` for authorization, while lifecycle operations retain the exact live `Agent` instance. These identities serve different purposes: session equality grants access, but exact object identity selects cleanup and completion delivery. Reusing an agent or session id cannot redirect an old scope's cleanup or notices to a replacement.
+
+The first task for an owner attaches one asynchronous effect to `owner.ctx`. Agent-scope disposal cancels that owner's live tasks, awaits their terminal records, and removes their snapshots. This effect survives producer reloads and joins the agent's existing quiescence boundary. The task service retains the effect disposer so service reload can detach callbacks from still-live agent scopes after global teardown.
+
+For contract-compliant producers, `AgentHandle.dispose()` resolves only after owned background work has stopped. Work intended to outlive an agent must be started unowned; survival across runtime restarts requires a separate durable-job design.
+
+## Service surface
+
+`TaskService` provides:
+
+- `start(spec)` for preflighted, atomic registration.
+- `get(id, caller?)` and `list(caller?)` for non-consuming snapshots.
+- `read(id, caller?)` for a consuming stream delta or an idempotent final result.
+- `kill(id, caller?, reason?)` for cancellation.
+- `wait(id, timeoutMs, caller?, signal?)` for bounded terminal waiting.
+- `onTaskDone(listener)` for effect-scoped observation with exact-owner delivery and listener containment.
+- `attachSurface(name)` for the control-surface availability fence.
+
+`wait` returns the terminal snapshot when the task settles or the live snapshot when its timeout expires. Aborting a wait cancels only that wait. If settlement has already assigned terminal delivery to the waiter, the terminal snapshot still wins. Waiters unregister synchronously on abort so a same-tick settlement cannot suppress a completion notice on behalf of a reader that receives nothing.
+
+A producer loaded without any control surface would let callers start work they cannot collect or stop. `dsh-tool-tasks` therefore calls `attachSurface()` for its lifetime, and `start()` fails before producer execution when no surface is attached. This check occurs at start rather than plugin load because sibling plugins may activate concurrently. Custom non-model surfaces can attach themselves without teaching the registry tool names.
+
+## Model-facing control surface
+
+`dsh-tool-tasks` registers three kind-independent tools with generic ACP cards:
+
+- `task_output(task_id, wait?, timeout_ms?)` reads output and always appends `[status: ...]`. Stream tasks return only output since the previous read; final-output tasks return their result after settlement. Reads are non-blocking unless `wait: true`, whose timeout is defaulted and capped by plugin config. A wait timeout reports the still-running status and does not stop the task.
+- `task_list()` returns caller-visible tasks as `<id> [<kind>] <status> — <label>`, or `(no background tasks)`.
+- `task_kill(task_id, reason?)` requests cancellation immediately. The optional logged reason is forwarded to the producer. Terminal tasks report their existing status; a throwing producer cancel fails the call and leaves the task running.
+
+Stream reads share one task-scoped consuming cursor because the owning model is the intended reader. A UI or multiple independent readers need a separate non-consuming observation API; sharing this cursor would let readers consume one another's output.
+
+The system prompt tells the model to retain task ids, continue independent work instead of busy-polling or duplicating a running task, collect relevant tasks before its final answer, and kill work that no longer matters. Completion injects a logged `context/message` into the exact owner's session; it becomes durable context for the next request but does not wake an idle agent.
+
+The runtime marks a terminal task `reported` when a read or wait delivers it, when a live waiter has claimed delivery at settlement, or when the model explicitly kills it. Reported tasks do not inject redundant completion notices. Listener failures are logged independently, do not stop later listeners, and are not awaited by waiters or teardown.
+
+## Producer opt-in
+
+Each producer owns whether its schema exposes `run_in_background` through defaulted config. `dsh-tool-bash` and each `dsh-tool-subagent` instance use `enableRunInBackground`, defaulting to true. A disabled instance omits the parameter and also rejects a forced background argument at execution because the generic argument validator permits undeclared keys. Schema omission advertises the capability; the execution check enforces it.
+
+`ctx.tasks` does not rewrite producer schemas. A bundle forwards configuration only for producers it owns. If a background call reaches `start()` without an attached surface, the runtime fence fails before execution.
+
+## Producer integrations
+
+The bash seam exposes `resolve`, `run`, and `start`. `start(spec)` returns a `BashProcess` with incremental reads, cancellation, exit facts, and a non-rejecting quiescence promise. The local executor retains live handles only so its own disposal can kill and join processes. Foreground callers continue to use `resolve` and `run` directly.
+
+For background bash, `dsh-tool-bash` registers the calling agent as owner. Its hooks map `kill()` to cancellation, `done` to a completed or killed `TaskOutcome`, and `readOutput()` to the process's bounded incremental output plus spill and sandbox notices. Generic task tools own ids, status lines, listing, waiting, and completion notices.
+
+For background subagents, `dsh-tool-subagent` creates a task-owned `AbortController` and begins provider startup inside the task starter. Cancellation aborts the same signal before or after provider readiness. `done` awaits both the child result and child disposal, maps completed output to a final result, maps abort to `killed`, and maps other stop reasons or infrastructure failures to `failed`. Intermediate child history remains in the child session and is not exposed through `readOutput()`.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+### Per-capability control tools
+
+Separate bash and subagent output/stop tools duplicate ids, isolation, cleanup, notification, and guidance while increasing the model's schema and protocol burden. One runtime keeps execution-specific behavior in producers without cloning the task lifecycle.
+
+### An immediate abstract task-runtime backend
+
+The current `TaskStart.run()` contract passes in-process callbacks and exact `Agent` objects. A durable backend changes identity, restart, ownership, and observation semantics, so extracting an interface before a second implementation exists would freeze the wrong boundary.
+
+### Consumer-owned authorization or cleanup events
+
+Consumer-owned checks invite inconsistent or missing isolation on each new surface. A broadcast cleanup event makes every listener filter every agent and provides no registration disposer. Central authorization plus one owner-scoped effect gives every consumer the same fence and an awaited, removable lifecycle hook.
+
+### Blocking output or a separate wait tool
+
+Blocking by default would serialize the parent while background work runs. Waiting without reading would add another model call and schema without returning useful information. `task_output(wait: true)` makes blocking explicit and combines it with result delivery.
+
+The wait uses the shared deadline primitives but not the generic tool-timeout policy. A wait timeout is a successful observation that returns `[status: running]`; the generic policy would replace it with a timeout error. No tool-call timeout controls task lifetime after a task id has been returned.
+
+### Runtime-owned output sinks
+
+A push sink would centralize buffering, but bash already owns bounded buffers, truncation, and spill files behind its executor seam. Pulling formatted deltas preserves that ownership. A durable backend that owns storage may justify revisiting the producer interface.
+
+### Random ids, promotion, or lifecycle session events
+
+Authorization, not unguessability, is the access boundary, and ids do not derive filesystem paths; sequential branded ids keep transcripts readable. Foreground-to-background promotion requires a user interaction contract the SDK does not prescribe. Starts, reads, and notices are already logged as tool and context events, so dedicated task session events would duplicate model-visible facts.
+
+## Testing
+
+Unit coverage pins preflight atomicity, per-kind ids, stream and final reads, wait timeout and abort races, cancellation, first-wins settlement, listener containment, notice suppression, owner isolation, stale owner instances, owner cleanup, service teardown, and the no-surface fence. Producer tests cover bash process mapping, subagent startup cancellation, terminal mapping, and disposal. Snapshot coverage pins the control-tool schemas and prompt guidance.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Bash commands and subagents share one id vocabulary, listing, notice format, prompt habit, and set of control tools. New long-running producers implement execution hooks instead of another registry and tool family. The [tool cookbook](../../../cookbook/adding-a-tool.md) points producers to this contract.
+
+Owned background bash now stops with its agent instead of surviving it. Background processes have no executor timeout; callers must kill irrelevant work or rely on owner/service disposal. Stream reads support one consuming reader, completion notices do not wake idle agents, and a producer that returns from `cancel` without settling `done` can still stall teardown. Durable jobs, independent observation cursors, and foreground promotion remain separate designs.

CI treats them as intermediate test inputs and retains their platform wheels. All four deploy flags are grounded in measurement: `--legacy` is the mandatory path with inject-workspace-packages off; hoisted yields a zero-symlink file tree (most stable for the pkg VFS, physically guaranteeing a single cordis instance); disabling automatic peer installation keeps unpublished package names from triggering registry resolution; link-workspace-packages points the closure at workspace/vendor sources.

 CI: [`.github/workflows/build-exe-for-python-sdk.yml`](../../../../.github/workflows/build-exe-for-python-sdk.yml), triggered explicitly only — `workflow_dispatch`, or the `build-exe` label on a pull request; native builds on the three platforms linux-x64 / linux-arm64 (`ubuntu-24.04-arm`) / macos-arm64, with `~/.pkg-cache` cached; macOS ad-hoc signing is handled by pkg. Each leg drives a mock SSE model through the SDK with the default config and a custom `cordis.yml`, drives the exe directly over NDJSON JSON-RPC, verifies the JSONL and final response, and installs release-shaped wheels into a clean venv without `runtime_bin`; Linux additionally inspects GLIBC requirements and runs in a manylinux 2.28 container. A full three-target run retains four artifacts, each containing one release file: the platform-independent SDK wheel and three native runtime wheels; a subset dispatch retains the SDK wheel and selected runtime wheels. Bare executables and source bundles remain intermediate test inputs. [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](../../../../.gitlab-ci.yml) accepts only `python-vX.Y.Z` tag pipelines whose version matches the root `package.json`, builds one SDK wheel and three native runtime wheels, then a single serialized job checks and publishes all four to the project PyPI registry. Windows is a non-goal.
 
 ### Python SDK distribution: two carriers, exe for production, node for development
 
-The Python SDK lives at [`python/`](../../../../python/README.md): `python/sdk` (the client) + `python/sdk-runtime` (the runtime carrier package). The runtime package's data directory holds three kinds of content: the checked-in default `runtime/cordis.yml`, the build-injected platform exe, and the build-injected `runtime/node/` closure tree. `resolve_bundled_launch_args()` automatic resolution **finds the exe only**; the node carrier is enabled only by an explicit `DSH_RUNTIME_MODE=node` (running `runtime/node/node_modules/@deepseek-ai/dsh-jsonrpc-agent/lib/bin.js`, requiring a system node ≥22.19), positioned as the development-verification channel for members of this repo, and does not enter wheel distributions.

 [`scripts/build-python-release.py`](../../../../scripts/build-python-release.py) reads the authoritative stable `X.Y.Z` from the repository root `package.json` and stages both packages at that version, with the SDK depending exactly on `deepseek-harness-runtime-bin==X.Y.Z`. An optional `python-vX.Y.Z` release tag is a consistency assertion and is rejected when it differs from the repository version; the source `pyproject.toml` development sentinel never determines a release version. The SDK is a `py3-none-any` wheel; the wheel-only runtime package contains exactly one exe and uses one of `py3-none-manylinux_2_28_x86_64`, `py3-none-manylinux_2_28_aarch64`, or `py3-none-macosx_11_0_arm64`.

 - **Recursion.** Without a bound, an in-process child can see the delegation tool and recurse. The in-process backends implement the optional absolute depth limit and scoped live-global `toolFilter`; ACP advertises both capabilities off and rejects such a request. The [subagent composition-controls RFC](2026-07-12-subagent-persona-tool-filter-and-depth.md) owns their exact semantics and security limits.
-- **Blocking the parent turn.** Synchronous collect holds the parent's `runStep` open for the child's full duration. This is acceptable for the first cut; **background / poll / spill semantics are deferred to a future redesign that unifies long-running-tool handling across subagents AND bash** (a sub-agent and a long `bash` background task pose the same "the model started something slow, how does it collect later" problem, and should share one mechanism rather than each inventing its own).
+- **Blocking the parent turn.** Foreground collection holds the parent's step open for the child's full duration. Background delegation uses the shared `ctx.tasks` runtime and generic `task_*` tools, the same collection mechanism as background bash; the subagent seam itself remains task-agnostic.
 - **Live progress.** This cut surfaces only lifecycle + final result; a per-chunk child→parent update stream is deferred with the background redesign.
 - **ACP client surface.** Proxying `fs`/`terminal` from the ACP child back to the parent (a shared-workspace mode) is future work; the first cut advertises neither, so the child self-serves in its own process.

 Provider plugins register synchronously during `apply()`. Provider membership is direct effect-owned state: registration and disposal invalidate completed catalogs synchronously, and discovery reads the current provider map on demand rather than observing registry-change events. Provider catalogs return ranked candidates from awaited `list()` calls, where remote providers perform initialization, authentication, and discovery while honoring the lookup abort signal. The registry validates each candidate, resolves same-name skills first-wins by rank, provider registration order, and provider-local order, then sorts summaries by skill name for deterministic consumers. It caches only completed catalog snapshots and retries when a provider/runtime revision changes during discovery, so an unload cannot freeze a stale, unresolvable skill into a session prefix. Runtime `ctx.skills.register(...)` remains a convenience for embedded in-process skills and uses project-over-user priority; `runtime` is reserved as the registry-owned provider name.

-`dsh-bash-sandbox` reuses local process execution and asks `ctx.sandbox` to wrap the exact bash argv. A kernel denial is a result fact independent of exit status and is inferred only from the selected wrap's stderr dialect. Runner failure outranks denial because it means the command never ran: foreground calls throw `SANDBOX_UNAVAILABLE`, while settled background tasks set `sandbox.runnerFailed` for `bash_output`. This keeps broken confinement distinct from both task failure and an enforced denial.
+`dsh-bash-sandbox` extends `LocalBashExecutor` and hands `ctx.sandbox` the exact `['bash', '-c', command]` argv it is about to spawn. A denial is an orthogonal result fact, conservatively classified from the active runner's stderr dialect. A runner failure outranks denial: foreground execution throws `SANDBOX_UNAVAILABLE`; a settled `BashProcess` stamps `sandbox.runnerFailed`, and the bash producer renders it through generic `task_output`.

 When a confining executor is mounted, `bash` advertises paired `sandbox_permissions` and `justification` fields.

No grant is persisted.
 
 Escalation is a same-turn retry of the denied command with the narrowest sufficient `sandbox_permissions` and a `justification`; the approval prompt is the consent step. It must be grounded in an actual denial, except when the session already observed the same denied access, and a disabled or rejected approval ends that command. The retry, approval decision, and result use existing tool and approval events. `dsh-tool-bash` owns the ask because the executor seam has neither the agent nor call id required for user interaction.

+# RFC: MCP client plugin — connect to external MCP servers and bridge their tools
+
+Status: implemented
+
+## Problem
+
+The harness had no way to consume tools from the MCP (Model Context Protocol) ecosystem. MCP is the emerging standard for tool servers — GitHub, filesystem, databases, code search, and hundreds of community servers expose tools via MCP. Users want to point the harness at one or more MCP servers and have their tools appear as native model-facing tools, without writing per-server glue code.
+
+The `ToolRegistry` already accepts raw JSON Schema tool definitions (documented in `dsh-tools` README: "Raw JSON-Schema tool definitions (from MCP servers) are still accepted by `ToolRegistry.register()` directly"), and the extension cookbook sketches the intended pattern ("MCP | one plugin per server: discover tools → `ctx.tools.register()`"). The infrastructure was ready; the bridge plugin was missing.
+
+## Decision
+
+### Package
+
+A single package `@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client` at `packages/mcp/mcp-client/`. No capability-seam three-package split — there is no foreseeable second MCP client implementation, and the convention is "don't split preemptively" ([capability seams RFC](../../implemented/architecture/2026-06-13-capability-seams.md)).
+
+### SDK
+
+Use the official [`@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk) (`Client`, `StdioClientTransport`, `StreamableHTTPClientTransport`). The harness does not implement its own JSON-RPC — consistent with how ACP delegates to `@agentclientprotocol/sdk`.
+
+### Scope
+
+MCP Client only (no server side — ACP already covers the "expose harness as an agent" role). Bridge **Tools** only — Resources and Prompts are deferred (they require harness-side consumption mechanisms that don't exist yet, and design space is large).
+
+### Plugin shape
+
+Namespace plugin (named exports `name`/`inject`/`Config`/`apply`, no `export default`). `inject: ['tools']`. Each MCP server is one plugin instance in `cordis.yml` — the same package loaded N times with different configs, like `dsh-tool-subagent`.
+
+### Configuration
+
+Flat discriminated union on the `transport` field:
+
+```typescript
+interface StdioConfig {
+  transport: 'stdio'
+  serverName: string          // required namespace, ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,32}$
+  command: string
+  args?: string[]
+  env?: Record<string, string>
+  cwd?: string
+  toolCallTimeoutMs?: number  // default 60_000
+}
+
+interface StreamableHttpConfig {
+  transport: 'streamable-http'
+  serverName: string          // required namespace, ^[A-Za-z0-9_-]{1,32}$
+  url: string
+  headers?: Record<string, string>
+  toolCallTimeoutMs?: number  // default 60_000
+}
+
+type Config = StdioConfig | StreamableHttpConfig
+```
+
+`serverName` is the stable local identity that namespaces this server's tools in the model-facing name (below). It is deliberately user configuration, NOT the remote `serverInfo.name`: the remote name is untrusted input, is not unique across deployments (prod and staging instances of one server report the same name), and may change on server upgrade — none of which may silently rename model-facing tools. A duplicate `serverName` across live instances is a configuration error: the later instance fails at load with an actionable message, never silent shadowing or skipping. A short `serverName` (`gh`) is also the knob for shortening public names.
+
+Example `cordis.yml` usage:
+
+```yaml
+- id: mcp-github
+  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client'
+  config:
+    serverName: github
+    transport: stdio
+    command: npx
+    args: ['-y', '@modelcontextprotocol/server-github']
+    env:
+      GITHUB_TOKEN: !!js process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN
+
+- id: mcp-web
+  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client'
+  config:
+    serverName: web
+    transport: streamable-http
+    url: http://localhost:3000/mcp
+    headers:
+      Authorization: !!js `Bearer ${process.env.MCP_TOKEN}`
+```
+
+The model sees `mcp__github__create_issue`, `mcp__github__search_code`, `mcp__web__search`.
+
+### Lifecycle
+
+Boot-time from `cordis.yml`. HMR (`@cordisjs/plugin-hmr`) provides hot-swap: editing the yml entry triggers dispose of the old instance (disconnects, unregisters tools) and creation of a new one (connects, discovers, registers). No runtime-dynamic API for now. Public names are pure functions of `(serverName, rawName)`, so an HMR swap that keeps `serverName` recreates identical model-facing names — session history and permission rules stay valid — and adding or removing an unrelated server never renames an existing tool.
+
+### Tool discovery and registration
+
+Every MCP tool has two names:
+
+- `rawName` — the exact MCP `Tool.name`, used only on the wire (`tools/call`).
+- `publicName` — the globally unique model-facing name registered in the `ToolRegistry`:
+
+      mcp__<serverName>__<rawName>
+
+This server-qualified shape is the de-facto standard among multi-server agent clients — every surveyed end-user product qualifies MCP tools by server ([Claude Code](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/mcp#tool-naming-convention) `mcp__github__list_issues`, [Codex](https://openai.com/index/unrolling-the-codex-agent-loop/) `mcp__weather__get-forecast`, [Gemini CLI](https://geminicli.com/docs/tools/mcp-server/#3-tool-naming-and-namespaces), [VS Code](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/ab9ec62c6a61e429a9abd612ff220c3f4834c9ea/src/vs/workbench/contrib/mcp/common/mcpServer.ts#L217-L260), [Cline](https://github.com/cline/cline/blob/52fdbb1d72f7324a28142a7ba7678d4b53c902f4/sdk/packages/core/src/extensions/mcp/name-transform.ts#L20-L35), [Roo Code](https://github.com/RooCodeInc/Roo-Code/blob/b867ec9145750d0ae1ff7f02d35406e9bf2a0b16/src/utils/mcp-name.ts#L117-L140), [Goose](https://github.com/block/goose/blob/b3a012cbdde854b0fe14f95b1c48543bf6517c0a/crates/goose/src/agents/extension_manager.rs#L1391-L1441), [OpenCode](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/blob/d199b1bff90282a4f9cd6251b5fc7b16875a52f6/packages/opencode/src/mcp/catalog.ts#L117-L120)); the exact `mcp__<server>__<tool>` spelling follows Claude Code and Codex. The `mcp__` marker keeps MCP registrations out of the native tools' namespace and gives permission/telemetry rules a stable shape (`mcp__*`, `mcp__github__*`).
+
+1. On connect: drain `client.listTools()` pagination, derive every tool's `publicName`, then register each as a raw `ToolDefinition` via `ctx.tools.register()`. The MCP JSON Schema and description pass through unchanged (no `defineTool` DSL conversion); only the model-facing `name` is replaced.
+2. Listen for `notifications/tools/list_changed` → re-run the same sync (dispose previous generation, register new). Deterministic names mean unchanged tools keep their names across re-syncs.
+3. The executor closes over `rawName`; the public name is never sent to the server and never parsed to recover the raw name.
+4. No `presentCall`/`presentResult` — the ACP bridge's generic-card fallback handles rendering.
+5. Tools are transparent in the system prompt — no "[via MCP]" annotation beyond the name itself.
+
+### Public name normalization
+
+MCP allows tool names up to 128 characters including `.`; the DeepSeek function-name contract allows `[A-Za-z0-9_-]` and at most 64. Public names are normalized deterministically: invalid characters become `_`, and when replacement or truncation changed the name, a 12-hex-char SHA-256 hash of the `(serverName, rawName)` identity is appended so distinct MCP identities can never collapse into the same public name:
+
+```typescript
+function publicToolName(serverName: string, rawName: string): string {
+  const joined = `mcp__${serverName}__${rawName}`
+  const normalized = joined.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9_-]/g, '_')
+  if (normalized === joined && normalized.length <= 64) return normalized
+  const hash = sha256(`${serverName}\0${rawName}`).slice(0, 12)
+  return `${normalized.slice(0, 64 - 13)}_${hash}`
+}
+```
+
+### Name conflict handling
+
+MCP guarantees tool-name uniqueness only [within one server](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-11-25/server/tools#tool-names); cross-server collisions are the norm, not the exception (a [Microsoft Research survey](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/tool-space-interference-in-the-mcp-era-designing-for-agent-compatibility-at-scale/#namespacing-issues-and-naming-ambiguity) of 1,470 servers found 775 colliding tool names; `search` alone appears in 32 servers, and the official GitHub server publishes bare `create_issue`). The always-on namespace makes collisions structurally impossible instead of handling them at collision time:
+
+- Two servers publishing `search` coexist as `mcp__github__search` and `mcp__web__search`.
+- A native harness tool named `search` is unaffected.
+- Duplicate `serverName` config fails the later instance at load (see Configuration).
+- A server listing the same tool name twice is an invalid tool list: the sync throws and the previous generation stays registered.
+- A registry conflict during the swap can only mean a foreign tool squats on this server's `mcp__<serverName>__` namespace: the partial generation is rolled back (zero tools from this server) and the error is logged loudly.
+
+Tools are never silently skipped; which tools are available never depends on plugin load order.
+
+### Naming invariants
+
+1. Every MCP tool has the stable identity `(serverName, rawName)`; every active identity has exactly one public name.
+2. Public names are deterministic, globally unique, and satisfy the DeepSeek 64-char `[A-Za-z0-9_-]` contract.
+3. MCP `tools/call` always receives the original raw name.
+4. Connecting, disconnecting, or re-syncing an unrelated server never renames an existing tool.
+5. Registration order never determines which tool is available.
+
+### Tool execution
+
+A unified `execute` handler for all tools from one MCP server:
+
+1. Resolve `rawName` (the executor closes over it) and call `client.callTool({ name: rawName, arguments }, { signal: exec.signal })` with the configured timeout — the public name is never sent to the server.
+2. Map the result:
+   - Multiple `text` content blocks → join with `'\n'` into a single `TextBlock` (required: `flattenText` uses `join('')` without separator, so multiple blocks would lose inter-block boundaries).
+   - `image` content blocks → discard with a `ctx.logger.warn` (the harness has no image content block type; [drop-image RFC](../../implemented/simplification/2026-07-04-drop-image-content-block.md)).
+   - `isError: true` → map to the harness `isError` result path (`{ content: [...], isError: true }`).
+3. Cancellation: `exec.signal` (from the agent loop's cancel) is passed through to the MCP SDK's `callTool`, which sends `$/cancelRequest` to the server.
+
+### Subprocess environment (stdio transport)
+
+Replicate the `buildChildEnv` + `SENSITIVE_ENV_PATTERN` scrub from `dsh-subagent-acp`: filter ambient env (strip credential-shaped vars matching `/KEY|SECRET|TOKEN/i`), then merge `config.env` on top. Explicit env overrides survive the scrub.
+
+### Disconnection / crash
+
+No auto-reconnect. If the MCP server process exits or the transport closes:
+
+1. The effect disposes → all registered tools are unregistered (fiber-scoped disposers).
+2. Subsequent model calls to those tools → `ToolNotFoundError` → `isError: true`.
+3. Recovery: user edits `cordis.yml` (triggers HMR reload) or restarts the harness.
+
+This matches the ACP subagent pattern: "crash = terminal, report error, clean up, don't retry."
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+### MCP Server side (expose harness tools to external MCP clients)
+
+Deferred. The ACP bridge already exposes the harness as an agent server. Adding an MCP server layer would duplicate that with a different protocol, and the primary user need is consuming external tools, not exposing them.
+
+### Capability-seam three-package split (interface / impl / consumer)
+
+Rejected. There is no foreseeable alternative MCP client implementation — MCP has one protocol, one SDK. The convention is "don't split preemptively" until a second implementation appears.
+
+### Auto-reconnect with exponential backoff
+
+Rejected for v1. Adds complexity (partial-availability state where tools are registered but temporarily non-functional), and stdio process crashes usually indicate a configuration problem that retrying won't fix. HMR already provides the manual recovery path. Can be added as a future `reconnect: boolean` config if needed.
+
+### Bridge Resources and Prompts
+
+Deferred. Resources need a harness-side mechanism to decide WHEN to inject content (system prompt? on demand? model-triggered?). Prompts need a "prompt template" concept the harness lacks. Both require their own design; Tools are the high-value, low-risk starting point.
+
+### Raw model-facing tool names with an optional `toolPrefix`
+
+Rejected — this was the original proposal, built on the premise that "most MCP servers already use semantic prefixes in their tool names (e.g. `github_create_issue`)". The premise is false: the official GitHub server publishes `create_issue`, the reference filesystem server `read_file`, Sentry `search_issues` — and the Microsoft survey above shows collisions are common at ecosystem scale. Collision-time prefixing (or warn-and-skip) also makes the available tool set depend on plugin load order, and a tool could be silently renamed when an unrelated server is added — invalidating session history and permission rules mid-conversation. No surveyed multi-server agent product ships raw names.
+
+### Server-only namespace (`github__create_issue`, no `mcp__` marker)
+
+Rejected for v1. It prevents cross-server collisions but does not separate MCP registrations from native harness tools, and it forfeits MCP-wide policy shapes (`mcp__*`). The marker costs 5 characters; the `mcp__<server>__<tool>` spelling matches Claude Code and Codex, maximizing model familiarity. If the ToolRegistry later grows source-aware namespaces, dropping the literal marker can be revisited as a naming-policy change.
+
+### Deriving the namespace from the server-announced `serverInfo.name`
+
+Rejected. The remote name is untrusted, non-unique across deployments, and changeable on upgrade; tool identity and permission rules must not silently follow it. The namespace is local configuration.
+
+### Preserve multiple TextBlocks in tool result
+
+Rejected. `flattenText()` in the DeepSeek serializer uses `join('')` (no separator) when flattening `ContentBlock[]` to wire format. Multiple text blocks would silently lose inter-block boundaries — a correctness bug. All existing tools return a single TextBlock; the MCP bridge follows suit.
+
+## Testing
+
+Coverage is named per tier; each behavior lives at the cheapest tier that can express it.
+
+- **Unit** (`tests/mcp-client.spec.ts`, `tests/apply.spec.ts`, mocked MCP SDK): the `publicToolName` algorithm (clean, normalize, truncate-and-hash, determinism, distinct-identity separation), raw-vs-public wire discipline, cross-server and native-tool coexistence, duplicate-`serverName` load failure and reservation release, invalid-tool-list rejection, generation swap/rollback, failed-re-sync retention, result mapping, cancellation, config schema validation. 100% per-file coverage gates the package.
+- **E2E** (`tests/mcp-client.e2e.ts`, keyless): the real MCP protocol against the in-repo fixture server, `@modelcontextprotocol/server-everything`, and `@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem` over stdio, and against an in-process `StreamableHTTPServerTransport` server over Streamable HTTP — discovery under the namespace, dotted-name normalization end to end, execution round-trips, duplicate-`serverName` rejection, disposal.
+- **Snapshot**: deliberately none. MCP tools introduce no new transcript surface — they register as raw `ToolDefinition`s and render through the ACP bridge's generic-card fallback, which the bridge's unit suite already pins (`packages/ui/acp/tests/stream-update.spec.ts`). Adding an MCP server to the snapshot example's `cordis.yml` would mutate the pinned `text-turn` system-prompt fixture (forcing a with-key re-record of every recorded golden) and make every replay depend on spawning an external MCP server process — for zero new rendering behavior. If a later change gives MCP tools their own render intent, that change names its snapshot coverage then.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- A `cordis.yml` entry per MCP server is the entire integration cost: `serverName: filesystem` + a stdio command (or a Streamable HTTP URL) puts `mcp__filesystem__read_file` in the model's tool list, callable, with the raw `read_file` on the wire.
+- Public names are part of session history and permission/config surfaces; the naming algorithm is a v1 contract pinned by tests, and changing it after release is a breaking change.
+- The `mcp__<serverName>__` qualifier costs tokens on every name. Accepted: descriptions and JSON schemas dominate tool-definition tokens, and the qualifier buys stable identity, collision isolation, and MCP-wide policy shapes (`mcp__*`, `mcp__github__*`).
+- **MCP SDK stability**: the `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` is still evolving; breaking changes require updating the bridge. The version is pinned, and the SDK is widely adopted (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code) so breaking changes are unlikely to be silent.
+- **Tool schema quality**: MCP servers may expose poorly-described tools (vague descriptions, incomplete JSON schemas). The harness passes them through as-is — garbage-in-garbage-out; that is the server author's responsibility, not the bridge's.
+- **Stdio process management**: a misbehaving MCP server that ignores signals could wedge dispose. The Cordis fiber disposal has bounded quiescence; a stuck transport eventually times out at the framework level.
+- Crash recovery is manual (HMR edit or restart) — accepted for v1; a `reconnect` config remains open as future work.

+# RFC: Background subagent tasks
+
+Status: implemented
+
+## Problem
+
+The [subagent seam](2026-06-21-subagent-capability-seam.md) returns a `SubagentRun`, but the model-facing tool originally collected every run synchronously. Independent, slow delegations therefore held the parent call open or ran serially.
+
+Subagents need the same start, collect, list, stop, ownership, notification, and cleanup behavior as other long-running tools without adopting process-stream semantics. The child session remains the detailed trace; the parent needs the final answer and task status. A background child also outlives its starting tool call, so its cancellation and owner-disposal contracts must be explicit.
+
+## Decision
+
+Each `dsh-tool-subagent` instance may expose `run_in_background`, controlled by `enableRunInBackground` and enabled by default. A disabled instance omits the parameter and rejects a forced background argument at execution. Provider selection remains deployment configuration, so one instance still registers one distinctly named tool for one provider.
+
+Background subagents use the [generic background task runtime](../architecture/2026-06-20-generic-long-running-tool-runtime.md). Collection, listing, cancellation, completion notices, and prompt guidance come from `task_output`, `task_list`, and `task_kill`; there are no subagent-specific companion tools.
+
+Foreground calls retain their synchronous contract: await provider startup and `run.result`, return final text only for `completed`, map other terminal reasons to an errored tool result, and always dispose the run before returning.
+
+For a background call, the tool validates the parent and refuses an already-aborted execution signal before calling `ctx.tasks.start()`. The task runtime preflights the control surface and owner cleanup before invoking the producer starter. That starter creates an independent `AbortController` and begins `ctx.subagents.start()`; after the id is returned, the tool-call signal no longer owns the child.
+
+The task registration maps the subagent seam as follows:
+
+- `kind` is `subagent`, `label` is the model-supplied description, and `owner` is the parent agent.
+- `cancel(reason?)` aborts the task-owned controller. The same signal covers pending provider startup and the ready child.
+- `done` awaits provider startup, the child result, and `run.dispose()`. Completed runs return final text, aborted runs become `killed`, and other stop reasons become `failed`. Startup, result, and disposal failures become failed outcomes rather than rejected task promises.
+- `readOutput` is absent. While live, `task_output` returns status only; after settlement, it returns final output idempotently. Intermediate child activity remains in the child session.
+
+## Lifecycle
+
+A background subagent belongs to its parent agent and is not durable across owner closure. The task runtime attaches cleanup to the exact owner's scope. Agent disposal cancels the task and awaits startup rollback or child disposal before `AgentHandle.dispose()` resolves, preventing leaked child agents and sessions.
+
+Completion notices target the exact owner captured at start. If owner teardown has already disposed the injection target, the notice is dropped; cleanup, not notification, is the lifecycle guarantee.
+
+## Model guidance
+
+The generic task prompt teaches the shared habit: retain ids, continue independent work instead of busy-polling, collect relevant tasks before answering, and kill irrelevant work. The subagent schema adds only that background mode returns a task id and that `task_output` collects the result. Authorization and owner cleanup enforce the runtime boundary independently of prompt compliance.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+### Subagent-specific wait, output, and stop tools
+
+Capability-specific tools would duplicate the task protocol, teach another collect-and-stop habit, and complicate multiple provider instances. The generic runtime provides the required behavior without changing the tool's one-provider-per-instance shape.
+
+### Survival after owner closure
+
+Survival requires persistent task state, child-session recovery, a late-result delivery channel, and policy for abandoned owners. Owner-scoped cleanup gives process-local work a clear lifetime. Durable jobs require a separate design.
+
+### No owner checks for isolated clients
+
+Agents and logs may be session-scoped, but the task registry and predictable ids are runtime-global. The generic owner fence therefore applies to subagents like every other producer.
+
+### Incremental child transcript output
+
+Streaming child history into the parent would blur the log boundary and make provider behavior diverge. This surface exposes final output only; richer observation belongs to session or UI tooling.
+
+## Testing
+
+Unit coverage pins stop-reason mapping, dispose-before-report behavior, startup and result failures, pre-aborted refusal, detachment from the starting call's signal, cancellation before and after provider readiness, collection through the real task tools, the no-surface preflight fence, missing-runtime failure, and per-instance schema gating. Snapshot coverage pins the model-facing schemas.
+
+## Consequences
+
+The parent can fan out slow delegations and collect them through the same task controls used by bash. Child work no longer occupies the starting tool call, but it can consume resources until collected, killed, or owner-disposed. Prompt guidance encourages collection; owner cleanup provides the hard lifetime boundary. Deployments that require synchronous delegation can disable background mode per tool instance.
