# dsh-agent-loop
Concrete `ReactLoopAgent` implementation and loop driver.
THE concrete agent plugin and loop driver. Its package-internal implementation satisfies the `Agent` interface and drives the session/turn/step lifecycle.
This is the only package in the harness that contains concrete loop logic. Everything else is an abstract service or a plugin against extension seams — new behavior goes into plugins, not here.

### Public API
Creation and resume use one caller-owned transaction: compose while unpublished, enter both registries, announce lifecycle edges, then start the driver. Failure rolls back private resources; caller, handle, and provider teardown share one quiescence boundary. The interface contract and ownership order live in [`dsh-agent`](../agent/README.md) and the [agent-scope runtime RFC](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-12-agent-scope-runtime-design.md).
Creation and resume are one rollback-covered transaction: construct a private session, concrete agent, and scoped context; await optional setup; enter both registries; announce `session/created` then `agent/created`; emit `agent/session-start`; and only then start the driver. Setup receives the full scoped `Context` as trusted same-process composition code and must not drive the unpublished agent. Ordinary typed identity and option inputs are borrowed under their readonly contract, while seed events and session metadata are validated and snapshotted because they cross the durable session boundary. An optional `AbortSignal` cancels only load/setup/publication and is detached before the returned handle becomes visible.
Caller-chosen ids arbitrate only at final registry entry, so concurrent contenders may prepare but every loser rolls back. Entry-bound detach capabilities cannot remove a later same-id replacement. Teardown stops and drains—including idle-injection flushes—before detaching agent, session, and scope; ids become reusable at detach.
The caller fiber and the AgentLoop provider are co-owners. `AgentFactory.createAgent(ownerCtx, options)` and `resume(ownerCtx, options)` receive caller ownership explicitly, while the factory keeps its own dependency context for `sessions`/`llm`/`tools`/`systemPrompt`; this lets a caller inject only `agents` without shrinking the new agent's service surface. Caller unload, handle disposal, or provider unload converge on one memoized quiescence boundary. Provider shutdown waits both resource teardown and the public create/resume wrapper that observed deactivation, so no continuation can publish after dependencies disappear.
- `ctx.agentLoop.create(id, options?, meta?)` synchronously creates a caller-fiber-owned agent with a fresh generated session id and optional cwd. Each call starts a new session rather than applying resume-or-create policy.
Each agent and its session share one caller-chosen `SessionId`, assumed globally unique; accidental UUID collisions are outside the supported model. Two concurrent operations with the same id may both prepare, but the final `enter()` calls arbitrate publication and every loser rolls its private resources back. Each detach is bound to the exact entered object, so a stale disposer cannot remove a later same-id replacement. A detach requested during a synchronous creation notification waits for that dispatch to unwind, preserving created/disposed pairing. Teardown runs stop and drain (including outstanding idle-injection flushes) → detach agent → detach session → unwind scope; the id becomes reusable at detach even if private scope cleanup is still finishing. Ordinary non-vetoing `agent/*` notifications go through `agentEvents(ctx, agent)`, per-step assembly goes through `assembleContextFor(agent)`, and turn-end durability checkpoints go through `ctx.sessions.flush(session)`.
- `ctx.agentLoop.create(id: SessionId, options?: AgentOptions, meta?: { cwd?: string }): Agent` — synchronous no-setup create under the exact shared agent/session id, disposed with the calling fiber. Declarative config treats `agents[].id` as a stable label and normally mints `${label}-session-<uuid>` before calling this boundary. An app may instead supply a stable exact `sessionId`: first use creates it, while a remount with persistence already present resumes its materialized history. `resumeSessionId` requires and loads an existing persisted id and is mutually exclusive with `sessionId`. This keeps default fresh restarts collision-free without retaining a second live routing identity.
`AgentLoop` also implements the `AgentFactory` seam and registers itself via `ctx.agents.setFactory(this)`, so plugins create/resume agents through `ctx.agents` (the interface):
- `ctx.agents.create({ agentId, sessionId, meta?, seed?, agentOptions?, setup?, signal? })` validates and snapshots durable seed and metadata, awaits optional composition while unpublished, creates on the supplied session id, and returns an owned [`AgentHandle`](../agent/README.md). Its signal applies only until publication.
- `ctx.agents.resume({ agentId, resumeSessionId, agentOptions?, setup?, signal? })` loads through optional [session persistence](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-06-14-session-persistence.md), continues stored history and turn numbering under the resumed session id, and follows the same unpublished setup and creation-only cancellation boundary. It rejects when no persistence backend is mounted.
- `ctx.agents.create({ sessionId, meta?, seed?, agentOptions?, setup?, signal? }): Promise<AgentHandle>` — programmatic create under the caller-supplied shared id. It awaits the unpublished setup transaction before returning; `meta` carries cwd/lineage/seed-boundary metadata and `seed` reconstructs a forked child prefix after the session boundary validates and snapshots the durable values. `signal` applies only until this promise settles. The resolved [`AgentHandle`](../agent/README.md) owns exact teardown.
- `ctx.agents.resume({ resumeSessionId, agentOptions?, setup?, signal? }): Promise<AgentHandle>` load a persisted session via `ctx.sessionPersistence` ([session persistence](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-06-14-session-persistence.md)), register the agent under that same id, reconstruct its history, then await setup against a fresh unpublished agent scope before rollback-covered publication. Turn numbering and derived history continue from the loaded log. Requires a session-persistence backend (NOT hard-injected — non-persistent demos still work; `resume` rejects with a clear error when persistence is absent). `signal` is creation-only. Returns an `AgentHandle`.
The config-driven `ctx.agentLoop.create()` path keeps its agent owned by the loop fiber (it discards the handle). For a programmatic agent, the handle holder is the only consumer-facing teardown capability; AgentLoop provider unload is the independent structural teardown edge, not another handle exposed to application code.
### Injected services
`agents`, `agentExecution`, `sessions`, `llm`, `tools`, `systemPrompt` — all six interface services. The loop cannot activate without `agentExecution`; the default bundle loads its provider before the loop.

@@ -42,23 +44,19 @@ interface Config {
Configured agents start automatically. A model call requires both `provider` and `model`; `agent/request` may supply a missing pair before dispatch. `maxParallelToolCalls` bounds every agent's rolling pool for parallel-safe calls and defaults to `10`. `cwd` applies only to fresh sessions, while `resumeSessionId` retains persisted metadata. Configured agents use the deployment persona, and programmatic setup can shadow it per agent. This plugin supplies the per-agent `provider`, `model`, and `cwd` prompt variables; harness identity and deployment persona belong to `dsh-system-prompt`.
### Exported concrete class
### Internal concrete driver
- `ReactLoopAgent` — the concrete `Agent` implementation. Its inbox is a JavaScript native-private field, and one prepared session can be claimed by only one concrete driver. Everything observable happens through session events and the `agent/*` event taxonomy.
The concrete `Agent` class, its `Inbox`, `runLoop`, and instance-bound publication/start controls are package-internal. The package root exports only the plugin/service/config contract, and the package exports map exposes no `./src/*` escape hatch; lifecycle owners create agents through `ctx.agents` rather than naming, constructing, or starting driver internals.

`Inbox`, `runLoop`, and the instance-bound publication/start controls are package-internal. The package root does not export them, and the package exports map exposes no `./src/*` escape hatch; lifecycle owners create agents through `ctx.agents` rather than constructing or starting the driver internals. `ReactLoopAgent.send()`, running `steer()`, and open-turn `inject()` materialize content plus resolved source once as detached, deeply frozen lossless JSON; malformed data throws before enqueue or append. An injection that arrives while the current step executes assistant tool calls stays in a FIFO until the batch settles; successful batches place it after the complete result batch, and interrupted batches drain it before the turn closes.
Each concrete `send()` materializes content plus resolved source once as a detached, deeply frozen lossless-JSON FIFO item. If claimed, it is the sole ordinary message in its turn; a successor waits for the preceding ordinary turn's checkpoint to settle, while cancellation, disposal, or a pre-start failure may drop it without a turn. Running `steer()` enters the steering FIFO: an open turn records it at the next steering checkpoint before a request or continuation decision, but policy can still stop before another step; steering left after turn close and its checkpoint becomes later queued input unless terminal turn policy, cancellation, or disposal discards it. Open-turn `inject()` uses the same accepted-value boundary but defers in a FIFO while the current step executes assistant tool calls; successful batches place it after all results, and interrupted batches drain it before turn close. Malformed data throws before enqueue or append.
### Loop lifecycle (`loop.ts`)
The driver owns one agent for its lifetime and runs inside `ctx.agentExecution.run({ agent }, ...)`, so process-local asynchronous continuations can recover the initiating Agent. The ALS frame contains only `{ agent }`: creation, persistence load, and unpublished setup stay outside the child boundary, while turn, step, signal, and other control state remain explicit at every seam. The [execution-context package](../agent-execution/README.md) owns propagation and detached-work rules.
The loop records turn, step, request, stream, and tool boundaries in the session log; live extension events coordinate policy around those durable facts. The [architecture turn flow](../../../docs/architecture.md#turn-flow) and generated [event catalog](../../../docs/cordis-catalog/events.md) are the authoritative sequence and signatures.
The driver owns one agent for its lifetime and runs inside `ctx.agents.withInitiator(agent, ...)`. Package-private orchestration entry points recover the exact Agent, derive `agent.session` once, and let operation-local helpers capture it instead of forwarding the concrete driver or per-operation `Session` through shallow interfaces. A helper keeps an explicit `Session` when that is its actual interface, while creation, persistence load, unpublished setup, services, workers, processes, persistence, and wire protocols retain their explicit identities. The [agent service](../agent/README.md#initiating-agent-scope) owns propagation, teardown, and detached-work rules.
Every provider call that reaches a successful finish appends exactly one `assistant/message` completion anchor, including content-less calls and `max-tokens` finishes. A successful `agent/step-result` stores its transformed content; a rejected result records empty content before the original failure continues. The anchor retains exact chunk provenance (`[]` for a stream with no chunks) and usage when available, while empty content stays out of derived message history.
Plugin failure ends the current turn, not the loop. The loop creates one private turn cancellation holder before announcing `running`, passes its single signal through prompt handling, prompt assembly, every step, model and tool execution, continuation, terminal stop, turn end, and durability flush, then discards it. A replacement prompt accepted after cancellation receives a fresh holder, while all work in the cancelled turn observes the first typed runtime cause. The durable turn outcome is only `aborted`; disposal is a separate runtime interrupt and wins classification even if cancellation reached the signal first.
Cancellation is cooperative: the loop checks for interruption between awaited boundaries but does not abandon an in-process listener, adapter, or tool Promise with `Promise.race`. `whenIdle()` and handle disposal therefore observe real quiescence. See the [explicit turn cancellation RFC](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-07-16-explicit-turn-cancellation.md).
Plugin failure ends the current turn, not the loop. Only final adapter dispatch/iteration failures and terminal in-band error or aborted finishes enter `agent/request-error`; middleware, result processing, tools, and `agent/post-step` remain ordinary turn failures. Recovery observes a closed failed step, and a retry rebuilds the request from the durable log in a new numbered step. AgentLoop privately owns one cancellation holder whose explicit signal spans prompt policy, assembly, every step, model and tool work, continuation, terminal stop, turn close, and flush; the next turn gets a fresh signal. `cancel()` strictly normalizes a runtime-only `user | parent` cause, clears pending work, and cooperatively aborts the holder without leaking to the next prompt; durable `turn/end` remains coarse `aborted`, and undispatched model tool calls receive synthetic `tool/call` and aborted result pairs. Disposal wins terminal classification, and work that ignores the signal must settle before quiescence. The [explicit-cancellation decision](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-16-explicit-turn-cancellation.md) owns the lifecycle and race contract. Terminal continuation stops remain authoritative through turn close and durability flush.
Within a step, exclusive calls form barriers; parallel-safe calls use a bounded rolling pool and are reclassified before start. Only dispatch/body overlaps. Policy, durable results, and result context remain model-ordered. Abort stops new calls, drains started results, then drains accepted batch context before the turn closes through the normal abort path.

- Hooks and policy: the relevant `agent/*` checkpoints plus the guarded `tools/pre-execute``tools/execute``tools/post-execute``tools/result` pipeline; exact signatures and modes live in the [generated event catalog](../../../docs/cordis-catalog/events.md)

#### KV Cache effect
Append-only only while system text, schemas, session prefix, and earlier history remain byte-identical under the same provider and model route. A token-bearing assembly rewrite or composition change may invalidate reuse from the first altered request token.

#### Token effect
Input grows with every surface message until a compaction replacement shadows older nodes; a multi-step tool turn resends the accumulated prefix and history each step.
#### KV Cache effect
Ordinary history growth is append-only and preserves reusable entries. A surface replacement or compaction invalidates reuse from the first shadowed history token.
### Undispatched calls after cancellation
#### What the model sees
If a later request replays an aborted step, each tool call that cancellation prevented from dispatching has the error result text `Error: tool call skipped because the step was aborted before execution`.
#### Token effect
One fixed error result per skipped call remains in history until compaction shadows it.
#### KV Cache effect
Append-only; each synthetic result follows the reusable request prefix and does not invalidate existing KV-cache entries.
## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- **Classification is unary** — calls whose safety depends on comparing siblings or resources must remain exclusive ([rationale](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-10-parallel-tool-call-execution.md)).
- **No resume-or-create policy on the config path** — config-driven `create()` starts a fresh `${id}-session-<uuid>` every run (`TODO(demo)`), and a config `resumeSessionId` whose resume fails logs a warning and creates no agent.
- **Classification is unary** — calls whose safety depends on comparing siblings or resources must remain exclusive ([rationale](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-10-parallel-tool-call-execution.md)).
- **Config labels are fresh by default** — omitting `sessionId` creates a fresh `${id}-session-<uuid>` on every startup; exact resume-or-create behavior requires an explicit stable `sessionId`, while `resumeSessionId` requires existing persisted history.
- **Config agents have no per-agent persona field or setup hook** — they use the deployment persona; scoped persona/tool composition is available only through the programmatic `ctx.agents.create()` / `resume()` factory options.
- **No built-in turn budget** — the default continuation is `continue` whenever a step had tool calls or steering; bounding a runaway turn requires an `agent/turn-continuation` force-stop plugin.
