 ### The registry owns the mode
 
 `ToolRegistry` gains a schemastery-validated config (`static Config`), its first: `mode: 'native' | 'code' | 'both'`, default `'native'`. A deployment flips it from `cordis.yml` (`tools: { mode: code }`) — no code edit, per the no-hardcoded-tunables convention.
@@ -38,15 +40,15 @@ Three decisions, each elaborated in its own section below:
 
 Under `'code'` and `'both'` the registry owns `run_code` as a reserved presentation transport with one required parameter, `{ code: string }`. It is represented by a normal `ToolDefinition` for dispatch but stays outside the filterable capability layers, so restrictions cannot accidentally remove Code Mode's only entry point. Calls traverse the complete tool pipeline — `tools/pre-execute` → monotonic guards → `tools/execute` around dispatch → `tools/post-execute` → immutable `tools/result` notification — exactly like native calls; a permission plugin can inspect the program text before it runs, and final-result observers see the normalized outer outcome. Its `execute(args, exec)`:
 
-1. **Build bindings.** One run-scoped signal follows outer cancellation and is aborted whenever the run settles. Each visible tool binding JSON-normalizes its arguments—rejecting lossy values before dispatch—waits on the serialization queue, executes with a deterministic call id and the outer token as `parent`, defers returned contexts through the outer execution, and logs `tool/code-dispatch`. Successful text becomes a string and non-text blocks become placeholders; tool errors reject the binding promise. Every sub-call retains its own immutable execution identity and traverses the full tool pipeline.
+1. **Build bindings.** One run-scoped signal follows outer cancellation and is aborted whenever the run settles. Each visible tool binding snapshots lossless-JSON arguments, waits on the serialization queue, executes with a deterministic call id and the outer token as `parent`, defers returned contexts through the outer execution, and logs `tool/code-dispatch`. Success returns the tool's final canonical JSON value; failure becomes the program-visible `ToolCallError`. Every sub-call retains its own immutable execution identity and traverses the full tool pipeline.
 2. **Runs the program**: `ctx.codeRuntime.run({ program: args.code, bindings: [{ global: 'tools', functions }], signal: runController.signal })`. The runtime receives the run-scoped signal, not only the caller's outer signal, so any way the outer run settles also aborts work inside the runtime.
-3. **Settle after quiescence.** When the runtime settles, the bridge aborts outstanding work and drains the dispatch queue before returning. Success returns captured output and presentation metadata. A runtime failure becomes `CodeRunFailedError`; backend rejection uses the registry's normal error boundary. Both produce structured error results, and no sub-call can append after `run_code` settles.
+3. **Settle after quiescence.** When the runtime settles, the bridge aborts outstanding work and drains the dispatch queue before returning. Success returns captured logs and the completion value as canonical output; the registry renders that value into durable `tool/result.content`, which the result card reads directly. A runtime failure becomes `CodeRunFailedError`; backend rejection uses the registry's normal error boundary. Both produce structured error results, and no sub-call can append after `run_code` settles.
 
 **Sub-call contexts are deferred through the parent.** Injecting inside `run_code` would break parent call/result adjacency, so `ToolRunContext.deferContext()` collects every sub-result `additionalContexts` entry in dispatch order. The registry carries that array even when the program later throws, and the loop appends each entry only after the outer result and every sibling result in the step. An outer post-execute block discards tool-deferred entries and exposes only contexts explicitly attached by the blocking decision.
 
 **Concurrency is serialized.** Each run owns a dispatch queue, so even `Promise.all` executes tool calls in submission order. Settlement abandons queued calls that have not started. Parallelism requires per-tool concurrency-safety metadata.
 
-**Presentation.** `run_code`'s render intent is decided here per the [render-intent Agent Note](../architecture/2026-07-02-tool-render-intent-union.md): `presentCall` → a `generic` card, `kind: 'execute'`, title = the program text, `rawInput` = the same program text; `presentResult` → a `generic` card whose content is the captured output (from `meta`). The program is the title because ACP execute cards reliably render that field while some clients omit body and raw-input content. This is not a `terminal` card: that card's semantics are "a shell command in a working directory", which a program is not.

Strip-only mode rejects non-erasable syntax (`enum`, namespaces) — that rejection returns as `error.kind: 'exception'` with Node's message, the SDK instructions say "erasable TypeScript only", and the model self-corrects like any other program error. A syntax-level failure never spawns a worker.
 2. **Spawn one fresh `Worker` per run** from the package's own bootstrap module: `env: {}` (truly empty — stronger than the scrubbed-env rule for spawned commands), `resourceLimits` from config, `stdout`/`stderr` captured into `logs` rather than inherited. No pooling and no cross-run state: a program's world dies with its worker, which keeps runs reconstructable from the log alone and makes state bleed unrepresentable.

A lossless JSON completion crosses exactly; `undefined` remains absence, a lossy value is `invalid-output`, and an oversized outer result is `output-limit` rather than an inspected-string substitute.
 4. **Bridge bindings over the message port**: each binding function in the worker posts `{ id, global, name, args }` and awaits the reply; the host validates the name against the request's bindings, invokes, and replies `{ id, ok, value }` or `{ id, ok: false, message }` (a host-side binding rejection becomes a program-side rejection). The worker-side namespace objects are built null-prototype via `defineProperty`, so a binding named `__proto__`, `constructor`, or `toString` is an ordinary own property, not a prototype collision. Unknown names, duplicate ids, and post-settlement messages are rejected or ignored — the port protocol assumes a hostile peer, because the peer runs model code.
-5. **Enforce independent budgets.** `computeMs` meters worker busy time, allowing slow awaited tools without excusing a hot loop. `maxWallMs` bounds total elapsed time, including unresolved waits. Expiry, cancellation, and completion terminate the worker. Heap exits and truncation are reported explicitly; compute, wall, heap, log, and return-value caps are validated configuration.

+# Agent Note: Typed tool returns in Code Mode
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-20-code-mode-typed-tool-returns.zh.md)
+
+## Problem
+
+Code Mode originally projected each nested tool result back from `ContentBlock[]` into one string. That preserved the human-readable Native surface but erased the canonical result the tool had already produced: programs had to scrape task ids and dynamic mount ids from prose, structured search and workflow results lost their shape, and non-text blocks became placeholders. The generated SDK could describe arguments but could only promise `Promise<string>` regardless of the tool's real output.
+
+The runtime also treated binding values and the final program value as presentation data. Separate log and completion caps could replace an oversized or non-cloneable completion with inspected text even though intermediate values do not enter model context. That made programmatic composition lossy and confused the memory boundary with the prompt boundary.
+
+The [canonical tool-output contract](../architecture/2026-07-20-canonical-tool-output-contract.md) establishes one validated execution-time value and a separate Native renderer. Code Mode should consume that value directly, preserve it across the worker boundary, and bound only the final output the program deliberately returns to the model.
+
+## Decision
+
+Code Mode is a typed projection of the visible tool registry. Each successful binding resolves to the final canonical `JsonValue` after post-execute policy, while a failed binding rejects with a real `ToolCallError`. Intermediate values remain inside the run and cross the worker boundary whole. Only the outer `run_code` logs, completion value, or failure diagnostic enter the configurable output ledger and the model-facing spill pipeline.
+
+This note owns the return and failure contract layered on the original [Code Mode foundation](2026-06-15-code-mode.md). The unified schema vocabulary is owned by the [JSON-value schema DSL note](../architecture/2026-07-20-unified-json-value-schema-dsl.md), and Native rendering and policy projection remain owned by the canonical-output note.
+
+### Generated SDK
+
+At each prompt assembly the registry projects every visible tool's parameter schema and detached canonical output schema into one deterministic declaration:
+
+```ts ignore-check
+type JsonValue = null | boolean | number | string | JsonValue[] | { [key: string]: JsonValue }
+
+interface ToolArgsMap {
+  // one exact inferred entry per visible tool
+}
+
+interface ToolOutputMap {
+  // one exact inferred entry per visible tool
+}
+
+type ToolName = keyof ToolOutputMap
+
+declare class ToolCallError extends Error {
+  readonly name: 'ToolCallError'
+  readonly toolName: ToolName
+}
+
+declare const tools: {
+  [K in ToolName]: (args: ToolArgsMap[K]) => Promise<ToolOutputMap[K]>
+}
+```
+
+`jsonSchemaToTs()` covers every supported unified-schema node: object, array, string, number, integer, boolean, null, unconstrained JSON, scalar `enum` and `const`, and `oneOf`. Unsupported raw constructs degrade to `unknown` during prompt generation rather than breaking assembly. Tool names retain their exact keys, including names that require quoted access.
+
+### Binding values and failures
+
+Before dispatch the bridge snapshots binding arguments as lossless JSON and snapshots the detached value again for an independent durable summary event. Host-side detachment, immutable execution, and output-schema projection all use iterative traversals rather than nested structured clone or recursive freezing. `undefined`, non-finite numbers, `-0`, sparse arrays, cycles, functions, and exotic objects reject that call before the tool runs. Successful dispatch returns `ToolExecutionResult.value`; Native `content`, metadata, and internal error information do not cross to the program.
+
+Code Mode declares its rejection capability on the runtime request as `{ name: "ToolCallError", memberNameProperty: "toolName" }`. The runtime seam treats those names as data: the worker materializes and injects the actual constructor used for `tools` binding failures, so `error instanceof ToolCallError` works without making a generic runtime know about tools. The worker constructs failures and defines their public fields through module-captured error and property-definition intrinsics plus null-prototype descriptors, so model mutations cannot replace the promised rejection with a worker failure. The error has the standard `Error` message plus the exact `toolName`; it deliberately omits `ToolFailure.info`, error codes, and Native content. This is an exception contract for control flow, not a failure union for programmatic classification.
+
+Binding arguments and resolutions are revalidated as lossless JSON on both sides of the hostile worker protocol and have no byte cap. Before crossing through structured clone, each detached value is encoded as a flat pre-order token stream whose transport nesting is bounded; the receiver rebuilds it iteratively. Valid application nesting therefore has neither a JavaScript call-stack depth cap nor a platform-specific nested structured-clone limit. At module initialization the worker captures its own realm's `Array.prototype` and `Object.prototype` identities, the native function-source intrinsic used only to recognize foreign-realm plain-container prototypes, and every structural and metering intrinsic used by the JSON boundary. Property writes use null-prototype descriptors, while private array and set operations invoke captured methods without consulting mutable global or prototype slots. Model code can therefore replace helpers such as `Object.keys`, `Array.isArray`, collection methods, string methods, or `Buffer.byteLength`, rewrite intrinsic-prototype constructor slots, or add descriptor-shaped fields to `Object.prototype` without changing validation, wire transport, or byte accounting. The foreign-realm native function-source check still rejects user-authored constructors that imitate `Object` or `Array`. The dependency-light runtime seam names its structural equivalent `CodeJsonValue` so it need not depend on the session-owned canonical type; the generated SDK and tool API use `JsonValue`. Intermediate values are not prompt-truncated, context-spilled, or persisted. This preserves full acquired search, workflow, task, filesystem, and MCP values for programmatic filtering while leaving provider and executor acquisition limits truthful.
+
+### Outer result and output ledger
+
+The runtime accepts an exact lossless JSON completion of any root. Returning `undefined` omits the completion; returning `null` is an explicit result. `run_code` exposes the canonical outer value `{ logs: string[], result?: JsonValue }`. Its Native renderer emits logs first, renders a string result raw, and renders every other JSON root with an iterative pretty printer. Total indentation is capped at ten characters and deeper subtrees remain compact, preserving the established shallow text while keeping traversal stack-safe and formatted size linear in the canonical JSON size.
+
+`WorkerCodeRuntime` replaces the former independent log and value caps with configurable `maxOutputBytes`, defaulting to `67_108_864` bytes. The worker charges captured logs by their exact JSON-string serialization and preflights the detached completion or program exception against the remaining combined budget before posting a terminal message. A giant thrown string or stack therefore crosses the worker port only as the fixed `output-limit` diagnostic. The host repeats the hostile-peer ledger for forged traffic and native pipe writes the worker cannot observe. Fixed `CodeRunResult` field names, braces, the bounded error-kind tag, and later presentation whitespace are deliberately outside this variable-payload ledger. Neither stage materializes an over-limit serialized completion. A result at or below the cap is exact. A completion that cannot survive lossless JSON snapshotting fails as `invalid-output`; a value, diagnostic, or combined outcome over the cap fails as `output-limit` rather than becoming inspected or truncated text.
+
+Logs stream eagerly so a terminated run can retain output already admitted. Native stdout and stderr writes that bypass the worker's patched stream slots use independent pipes, so terminal settlement continues bounded capture until worker termination completes before materializing the result. When the cap is crossed, the runtime returns an explicit bounded failure with the fitting captured prefix. That outer result then traverses the ordinary `run_code` rendering and spill policy, which may save the captured text and expose its configured head/tail preview. The spill layer cannot recover bytes the runtime rejected beyond the hard cap.
+
+Compute time, wall time, worker heap, cancellation, and fresh-worker isolation remain independent limits. The outer ledger never charges intermediate bindings, so snapshotting, flat-wire encoding and decoding, structured-clone cost, and available process or worker memory are their practical bounds.
+
+### Typed handles and lifetime
+
+Background producers return a typed canonical handle such as `{ kind: 'background', taskId }` while retaining their established Native sentence. A pre-aborted background call remains a failure because successful output promises an id and no task was created. After `ctx.tasks.start()` publishes the id, task-owned cancellation governs the work: settlement or later cancellation of the enclosing `run_code` call does not kill it. A later program can pass the returned id to `task_output`, and `task_kill`, owner disposal, or service teardown owns cancellation. Foreground execution remains coupled to the call signal. The task lifetime contract is owned by the [background task runtime note](../architecture/2026-06-20-generic-long-running-tool-runtime.md).
+
+Dynamic Cordis mounting follows the same rule: `cordis_mount` returns `{ id, pluginName, state, provides, waitingFor }`, so a program can read `mounted.id`, inspect active or pending state, and pass that id to `cordis_unmount` without parsing the stable Native sentence.
+
+### Persistence, metadata, and spill
+
+Nested dispatch keeps the existing bounded `tool/code-dispatch.resultSummary` for diagnostics but does not persist canonical values. `tool/result` continues to persist only rendered content, error, and optional metadata. This is deliberately not a session-format change, so `SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION` remains unchanged and replay cannot recreate intermediate program values.
+
+The opaque `exec.parent` token marks nested calls. Presentation metadata and generic or tool-owned spill projections skip those calls because they have no direct result card and their canonical values never enter context. The outer `run_code` call alone produces one card and may spill its final post-policy presentation; `run_code` intentionally declares neither a result presenter nor presentation metadata, so ACP and TUI complete the card through their generic raw-content fallback using durable `tool/result.content`.
+
+## Testing
+
+Compile-time and snapshot tests pin exact `ToolArgsMap`, `ToolOutputMap`, `ToolName`, schema-to-TypeScript coverage, and exotic names. Registry and real-worker tests cover scalar, array, object, and null values; raw string rendering; absent `undefined`; consumer-declared real rejection classes, including `ToolCallError`; invalid arguments and completions, including intrinsic-looking forged prototypes; model-mutated JSON-boundary globals, prototype methods, constructor slots, and inherited descriptor fields; typed binding failures after those mutations; large uncapped intermediate bindings; nested spill suppression; exact and over-limit 64 MiB accounting; combined logs/value/diagnostic accounting; giant thrown stacks; bounded failure spill; hostile forged traffic; and built-package execution.
+
+Keyless real-worker integration tests pin the two handle workflows that prose results could not safely support. A background bash call returns its task id, the outer run settles, and a later run polls that id to completion; separate cases prove pre-abort creates no task, post-publication call abort preserves the task, foreground execution stays signal-coupled, and `task_kill` owns cancellation. A Cordis program reads an active or pending mount's id and `waitingFor` fields directly, unmounts by that id, and confirms removal without parsing rendered text.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+**Return Native text plus optional JSON.** Rejected because the program would have two competing success contracts and would still need tool-specific parsing rules when the optional value is absent. Canonical value is the API; Native content is its presentation.
+
+**Expose a success/failure union from every binding.** Rejected because failure has no stable programmatic taxonomy. Rejections preserve ordinary `try`/`catch` control flow and expose only the tool name and human-readable message.
+
+**Cap each intermediate binding.** Rejected because intermediate values are not placed in model context and arbitrary truncation would corrupt programmatic composition. The producer's acquisition contract and process memory remain explicit boundaries.
+
+**Silently inspect or truncate an oversized completion.** Rejected because changing a JSON value into a string is lossy and type-incorrect. The explicit `output-limit` failure lets the model choose a smaller result, while the retained logs and diagnostic can still use normal outer spill.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Code programs can compose tools through stable values instead of reverse-engineering Native prose. Native and Both Mode retain their existing text and editor presentation, while Code Mode receives output-schema types and exact runtime JSON. Tool authors must treat the canonical value as their programmatic API and put display-only formatting in the renderer.
+
+The worker performs bounded-depth flat-wire transport and lossless validation but does not make intermediate values cheap or durable. Outer overflow is an explicit failed run, and error handling remains intentionally human-guided rather than a versioned code union.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- Subagent and workflow caller-defined structured outputs remain object-rooted through consumer-level guards even though tool outputs may use any JSON root.
+- Post-execute has separate value and presentation projections; replacing content is not a confidentiality mechanism, so policy must block or replace the value to hide it from programmatic callers.
+- Intermediate canonical values are execution-local and unavailable to replay because durable events persist only presentation and bounded summaries.
+- Intermediate values have no byte cap and can exhaust process or worker memory through retention, flat-wire copies, or structured-clone cost.
+- The 64 MiB hard cap applies only to the outer variable payloads, excluding fixed result-envelope syntax and presentation whitespace; spill cannot recover bytes rejected beyond that cap.
+- Provider or executor acquisition limits may already have discarded source data before a canonical value reaches Code Mode.
+- Unsupported MCP output schemas fall back to `JsonValue`; richer Native multimedia projection is deferred.
+- There is one result card per outer `run_code`, never per nested call.
+- Code failures expose `ToolCallError` message and tool name only, without a programmatic error-code union.

+# Agent Note：Code Mode 的类型化工具返回值
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-20-code-mode-typed-tool-returns.md) | 中文
+
+## 问题
+
+Code Mode 过去会把每个嵌套工具的结果从 `ContentBlock[]` 重新投影为一个字符串。这样虽然保留了适合人类阅读的 Native 接口，却丢失了工具已经生成的规范结果：程序只能从自然语言中提取 task id 和动态挂载 id；结构化搜索与工作流结果失去原有形态；非文本块则变为占位符。生成的 SDK 可以描述参数，却无论工具实际输出为何都只能承诺 `Promise<string>`。
+
+运行时还把绑定值和程序最终返回值当作展示数据。日志和完成值分别设置上限，导致过大或无法克隆的完成值可能被替换为检查格式化后的文本，而中间值本来就不会进入模型上下文。这种设计使程序化组合产生信息损失，也混淆了内存边界与提示词边界。
+
+[规范工具输出契约](../architecture/2026-07-20-canonical-tool-output-contract.md)确立了单一、经过校验的执行期值，并将 Native 渲染器与之分离。Code Mode 应直接消费该值，在跨越 worker 边界时完整保留它，并且只限制程序有意返回给模型的最终输出。
+
+## 决策
+
+Code Mode 是可见工具注册表的类型化投影。每个成功的绑定调用都会解析为 post-execute 策略处理后的最终规范 `JsonValue`，失败的绑定调用则以真正的 `ToolCallError` reject。中间值只存在于本次运行中，并完整跨越 worker 边界。只有外层 `run_code` 的日志、完成值或失败诊断会进入可配置的输出账本以及面向模型的输出落盘流水线。
+
+本文档定义叠加在原始 [Code Mode 基础](2026-06-15-code-mode.md)之上的返回值与失败契约。统一 schema 词汇由 [JSON 值 schema DSL Agent Note](../architecture/2026-07-20-unified-json-value-schema-dsl.md)定义；Native 渲染与策略投影仍由规范输出 Agent Note 定义。
+
+### 生成的 SDK
+
+每次组装提示词时，注册表都会把每个可见工具的参数 schema 及其分离的规范输出 schema 投影为一份确定性声明：
+
+```ts ignore-check
+type JsonValue = null | boolean | number | string | JsonValue[] | { [key: string]: JsonValue }
+
+interface ToolArgsMap {
+  // one exact inferred entry per visible tool
+}
+
+interface ToolOutputMap {
+  // one exact inferred entry per visible tool
+}
+
+type ToolName = keyof ToolOutputMap
+
+declare class ToolCallError extends Error {
+  readonly name: 'ToolCallError'
+  readonly toolName: ToolName
+}
+
+declare const tools: {
+  [K in ToolName]: (args: ToolArgsMap[K]) => Promise<ToolOutputMap[K]>
+}
+```
+
+`jsonSchemaToTs()` 覆盖统一 schema 支持的所有节点：对象、数组、字符串、数字、整数、布尔值、null、无约束 JSON、标量 `enum` 与 `const`，以及 `oneOf`。提示词生成期间，不支持的原始结构会降级为 `unknown`，而不会导致组装失败。工具名会保留精确键名，包括必须使用引号访问的名称。
+
+### 绑定值与失败
+
+分发前，桥接层会把绑定参数快照为无损 JSON，再对分离后的值生成一次快照，供独立的持久摘要事件使用。宿主侧的值分离、执行数据的不可变处理与输出 schema 投影均采用迭代遍历，而不使用嵌套结构化克隆或递归冻结。`undefined`、非有限数、`-0`、稀疏数组、循环引用、函数和非普通对象都会使该调用在工具运行前 reject。成功分发会返回 `ToolExecutionResult.value`；Native `content`、元数据和内部错误信息不会传入程序。
+
+Code Mode 通过运行时请求中的 `{ name: "ToolCallError", memberNameProperty: "toolName" }` 声明其 reject 异常能力。运行时 seam 只把这些名称视为数据：worker 会动态生成并注入真正用于 `tools` 绑定失败的构造函数，因此无需让通用运行时了解工具，`error instanceof ToolCallError` 也能成立。worker 使用模块初始化时捕获的 Error 构造函数与属性定义内建方法，配合原型为 null 的属性描述符，构造失败对象并定义其公开字段，因此模型代码的修改不会把契约承诺的 reject 变成 worker 失败。该错误包含标准的 `Error` 消息和确切的 `toolName`，并有意省略 `ToolFailure.info`、错误代码与 Native 内容。这是一项用于控制流的异常契约，而不是供程序分类的失败联合。
+
+绑定参数与绑定返回值会在不可信 worker 协议的两端重新校验为无损 JSON，且不设字节上限。每个分离后的值在通过结构化克隆跨越边界前，都会编码为扁平的前序 token 流，其传输结构的嵌套深度有界；接收方再以迭代方式重建该值。因此，有效应用数据的嵌套深度既不受 JavaScript 调用栈深度上限限制，也不受特定平台对嵌套结构化克隆施加的上限限制。模块初始化时，worker 会捕获自身 JavaScript 运行域中 `Array.prototype` 和 `Object.prototype` 的引用、仅用于识别其他运行域普通容器原型的原生函数源码内建方法，以及 JSON 边界用于结构处理和计量的全部内建方法。属性写入使用原型为 null 的属性描述符；内部的数组与集合操作直接调用捕获的方法，不会访问可变的全局或原型槽位。因此，即使模型代码替换 `Object.keys`、`Array.isArray`、集合方法、字符串方法或 `Buffer.byteLength` 等辅助方法，重写内建原型的构造函数槽位，或向 `Object.prototype` 添加形如属性描述符的字段，也不会改变校验、协议传输或字节计量。面向其他运行域的原生函数源码检查仍会拒绝由用户编写、冒充 `Object` 或 `Array` 的构造函数。为保持依赖轻量，运行时 seam 将结构等价类型命名为 `CodeJsonValue`，从而无需依赖会话侧拥有的规范类型；生成的 SDK 和工具 API 则使用 `JsonValue`。这些值不会经过提示词截断、上下文输出落盘或持久化。因此，程序可以完整筛选已经采集的搜索、工作流、任务、文件系统与 MCP 值，同时提供方和执行器的采集上限仍会实际生效。
+
+### 外层结果与输出账本
+
+运行时接受以任意 JSON 类型为根的精确无损完成值。返回 `undefined` 表示省略完成值；返回 `null` 则是显式结果。`run_code` 暴露规范外层值 `{ logs: string[], result?: JsonValue }`。其 Native 渲染器先输出日志；字符串结果保持原文，其他所有 JSON 根值则使用迭代式美化渲染器。总缩进长度上限为 10 个字符，更深的子树保持紧凑格式，既保留既有的浅层文本，又确保遍历不受调用栈深度限制，且格式化输出大小与规范 JSON 大小呈线性关系。
+
+`WorkerCodeRuntime` 以可配置的 `maxOutputBytes` 取代彼此独立的日志与值上限，默认值为 `67_108_864` 字节。worker 会将已捕获日志序列化为 JSON 字符串后的精确字节数计入账本，并在发送终态消息前，根据组合账本的剩余额度预检分离后的完成值或程序异常。因此，即使抛出的字符串或堆栈极大，通过 worker 端口的也只会是固定的 `output-limit` 诊断。宿主侧会针对伪造流量以及 worker 无法观察的原生管道写入，重复执行这套不可信对端计账。固定的 `CodeRunResult` 字段名、花括号、有界的错误类型标签及后续展示空白有意不计入这份可变负载账本。这两个阶段都不会实际生成超出上限的完成值序列化结果。结果不超过上限时会保持精确。完成值无法通过无损 JSON 快照时，以 `invalid-output` 失败；值、诊断或包含日志的组合结果超过上限时，以 `output-limit` 失败，而不会变成检查格式化后或截断的文本。
+
+日志会在产生时立即流出，因此运行被终止时仍可保留已经纳入额度的输出。绕过 worker 中已改写流写入入口的原生 stdout 和 stderr 写入会经由彼此独立的管道传输，因此运行时在终态结算期间仍会继续在上限内捕获输出，直至 worker 完全终止，然后才组装结果。超过上限后，运行时会返回一个显式的有界失败，并携带可容纳的已捕获前缀。该外层结果随后通过普通的 `run_code` 渲染与输出落盘策略；策略可以保存已捕获的文本，并暴露其配置指定的头尾预览。输出落盘层无法恢复运行时在硬上限之外拒绝的字节。
+
+计算时间、墙钟时间、worker 堆内存、取消和每次运行使用全新 worker 的隔离仍是互相独立的限制。外层账本从不计入中间绑定值，因此生成快照、扁平协议格式的编码与解码、结构化克隆开销，以及进程或 worker 的可用内存构成了这些值的实际边界。
+
+### 类型化句柄与生命周期
+
+后台 producer 返回类型化的规范句柄，例如 `{ kind: 'background', taskId }`，同时保留既有的 Native 语句。已预先中止的后台调用仍是失败，因为成功输出承诺返回 id，而此时并未创建任务。`ctx.tasks.start()` 发布 id 后，工作由任务自有的取消机制控制：外围 `run_code` 调用完成，或随后被取消，都不会终止该任务。后续程序可以把返回的 id 传给 `task_output`；取消则由 `task_kill`、owner dispose 或服务 teardown 负责。前台执行仍与本次调用的信号耦合。任务生命周期契约由[后台任务运行时 Agent Note](../architecture/2026-06-20-generic-long-running-tool-runtime.md)定义。
+
+动态 Cordis 挂载遵循同一规则：`cordis_mount` 返回 `{ id, pluginName, state, provides, waitingFor }`，因此程序可以直接读取 `mounted.id`，检查 active 或 pending 状态，并把该 id 传给 `cordis_unmount`，无需解析稳定的 Native 语句。
+
+### 持久化、元数据与输出落盘
+
+嵌套分发会为诊断保留既有的有界 `tool/code-dispatch.resultSummary`，但不会持久化规范值。`tool/result` 继续只持久化渲染后的内容、错误和可选元数据。这并非会话格式变更，因此 `SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION` 保持不变，回放也无法重建程序的中间值。
+
+不透明的 `exec.parent` token 用于标识嵌套调用。由于这些调用没有直接对应的结果卡片，而且其规范值永远不会进入上下文，展示元数据以及通用或工具自有的输出落盘投影都会跳过它们。只有外层 `run_code` 调用会生成一张卡片，并且可能将 post-policy 处理后的最终展示写入落盘文件；`run_code` 有意既不声明结果展示器，也不声明展示元数据，因此 ACP 和 TUI 通过其通用的原始内容回退机制，使用持久化的 `tool/result.content` 补全该卡片。
+
+## 测试
+
+编译期测试与快照测试锁定了精确的 `ToolArgsMap`、`ToolOutputMap`、`ToolName`、schema 到 TypeScript 的覆盖范围以及特殊名称。注册表与真实 worker 测试覆盖标量、数组、对象和 null 值；字符串原文渲染；缺席的 `undefined`；消费方声明并用于 reject 的真实异常类，包括 `ToolCallError`；无效参数与完成值，包括伪装为内建原型的伪造原型；模型代码修改过的 JSON 边界全局对象、原型方法、构造函数槽位，以及继承而来的属性描述符字段；上述修改后的类型化绑定失败；不设上限的大型中间绑定值；嵌套输出落盘抑制；64 MiB 上限内外的精确计量；日志、值与诊断的组合计量；抛出的超大堆栈；有界失败的输出落盘；不可信对端伪造的流量；以及构建后包的执行。
+
+无密钥的真实 worker 集成测试锁定了自然语言结果无法安全支持的两种句柄工作流。后台 bash 调用返回 task id，外层运行结束，之后的运行再根据该 id 轮询直至任务完成；其他用例分别证明，预先中止不会创建任务、发布后的调用取消会保留任务、前台执行仍与信号耦合，并且取消归 `task_kill` 所有。Cordis 程序会直接读取 active 或 pending 挂载的 id 和 `waitingFor` 字段，按该 id 卸载，并在不解析渲染文本的情况下确认挂载已移除。
+
+## 备选方案
+
+**返回 Native 文本并附加可选 JSON：**不予采纳。程序会面对两套相互竞争的成功契约；可选值不存在时，仍需使用工具专属的解析规则。规范值才是 API；Native 内容只是它的展示。
+
+**让每个绑定返回成功／失败联合：**不予采纳。失败没有稳定的程序化分类体系。reject 保留普通的 `try`／`catch` 控制流，并且只暴露工具名与可供人阅读的消息。
+
+**限制每个中间绑定值：**不予采纳。中间值不会进入模型上下文，任意截断会破坏程序化组合。明确的边界仍是生产方的采集契约与进程内存。
+
+**静默检查格式化或截断过大的完成值：**不予采纳。把 JSON 值改成字符串既有损又违反类型。显式的 `output-limit` 失败让模型可以选择返回更小的结果，而保留的日志和诊断仍可使用普通的外层输出落盘机制。
+
+## 影响
+
+Code Mode 程序可以通过稳定值组合工具，无需逆向解析 Native 自然语言。Native 和 Both Mode 保留现有文本与编辑器展示，Code Mode 则获得输出 schema 类型和精确的运行时 JSON。工具作者必须把规范值视为程序化 API，并将仅用于展示的格式化放入渲染器。
+
+worker 会以嵌套深度有界的扁平协议格式传输数据并执行无损校验，但不会降低中间值的开销，也不会使其具备持久性。外层输出溢出会显式导致运行失败，错误处理则有意由人类引导，而不是依赖带版本的错误代码联合。
+
+## 已知限制与延后工作
+
+- 即使工具输出可以采用任意 JSON 根，subagent 和工作流中由调用方定义的结构化输出仍通过消费方级别的门禁保持对象根限制。
+- Post-execute 分别提供值投影与展示投影；替换内容不是保密机制，因此策略若需向程序化调用方隐藏内容，就必须阻止调用或替换值。
+- 中间规范值仅存在于执行期间，无法用于回放，因为持久事件只存储展示和有界摘要。
+- 中间值没有字节上限，可能因值的保留、扁平协议格式副本或结构化克隆开销而耗尽进程或 worker 内存。
+- 64 MiB 硬上限只适用于外层可变负载，不计固定的结果封装语法与展示空白；输出落盘无法恢复超出该上限后被拒绝的字节。
+- 提供方或执行器的采集上限可能在规范值到达 Code Mode 前就已丢弃部分源数据。
+- 不支持的 MCP 输出 schema 会回退为 `JsonValue`；更丰富的 Native 多媒体投影留待后续实现。
+- 每个外层 `run_code` 只有一张结果卡片，嵌套调用不会各自生成卡片。
+- Code Mode 失败只暴露 `ToolCallError` 的消息与工具名，不提供程序可用的错误代码联合。
