- The [`system-prompt/assemble` waterfall](#live-events): cooperatively mutate or replace the assembly per caller.
### What is NOT here
- Any end-user prompt-editing API — this plugin owns the config-authored global persona default, creator plugins may register agent-scoped shadows during setup, and every other section comes from the plugin that owns the fact. (The `harness:identity` line is deliberately a code literal: a harness fact, not a deployment choice; the `system-prompt/assemble` waterfall is the escape valve for a deployment that must drop it.)
- Prompt compaction (belongs on the `agent/pre-step` seam in `dsh-agent`).
Design rationale: [the prompt-variables RFC](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-05-prompt-variables-and-tool-guidance-ownership.md).
## Model Experience
### System prompt
**What the model sees**: Every assembly starts with the harness identity below, then the configured persona and ordered plugin sections after strict variable interpolation. Empty sections disappear; scoped sections and variables can shadow globals for one agent. The final `system-prompt/assemble` waterfall result is authoritative, so an expert listener's changes determine the delivered prompt and tool schemas.
**Token effect**: Identity is a fixed per-request cost. Persona and plugin text are repeated per request and scale with their rendered content.
#### Harness identity

### Tool schemas
**What the model sees**: For shipped tools, the model receives the per-agent-visible subset of the [generated tool schemas](../../../docs/tool-catalog.md#tool-package-map), ordered by configuration or lexicographically after restrictions and assembly interception. Extensions can contribute additional definitions through the same registry. Sections and schema providers are separate assembly inputs, so a tool restriction does not remove independently registered guidance.
**Token effect**: Schema tokens repeat on every request. Restricting a tool removes its entire schema cost for that agent but not a separate prompt section; reordering changes cache shape but not semantic content.
## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- **Deployment-authored prompt text is config/composition only** — this plugin owns the global persona default, creator plugins may register agent-scoped shadows, and other sections come from the plugin that owns the fact; there is no end-user prompt-editing API.
- **No escape syntax for literal `{{…}}` braces** — every complete group is interpolated against registered variables; an escape is deferred until a real prompt needs one.
- **`toolOrder` misconfiguration surfaces at prompt assembly (the first turn), not at boot** — only shape violations throw at config load.
- **Sections sharing an `order` value tie-break by registration order** — a plugin-load artifact; determinism relies on the distinct-order band convention, unlike the canonicalized tool order.
