Merge origin/master: session projection base, command channel, composer seats

Resolution follows the reattachment plan: the #587 wire layer (planMode/ setPlanMode RPC, prompt.planMode, client Session projection fences) is dropped in favor of the session-projection base now on master; master structure wins in all shared files. Kept from the PR side: the approval-only pending filter in ChatView (questions render solely through the composer takeover) and the auto-merged QuestionComposer improvements. The deleted host/runtime package and retired test carriers are removed with master.

+
+The `dsh` command-line entry follows the `apps/` assembly tier: `apps/*` are product assemblies over `packages/*` libraries. Plain `dsh` boots the interactive TUI coding agent, `dsh -p "task"` runs one headless turn, and `dsh web` serves the browser UI.
+
+Argv is parsed once through a [Commander](https://github.com/tj/commander.js) adapter ([`src/args.ts`](src/args.ts)): one program whose default (no subcommand) is the TUI/headless surface (`--config`, `-p`/`--prompt`, `--resume`) and whose `web` subcommand is the browser UI. `src/bin.ts` switches on the resolved mode and dynamic-imports only that mode's module. `dsh --help` lists every mode and `dsh web --help` renders the web usage, `dsh --version` prints this app's version, and an unknown option or a mistyped `--resume` fails loud (stderr, exit 1) instead of misrouting. `dsh web`'s `--host`/`--port` are unvalidated pass-through overrides: the `dsh-host-webserver` schema is the single source of both the default (the shipped `cordis.yml` value when a flag is absent) and validity, and rejects a bad value at boot.

 The TUI surface:

- boots the shipped default config (`examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml`) or an explicit config argument, through [`dsh-app-boot`](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md);
- resumes a persisted session with `dsh --resume <session-id>` — the form the TUI prints on exit and lists under `/resume`; the flag sets `RESUME_SESSION_ID` before boot so the shipped config rehydrates that session, and a missing or unreadable id fails loud and exits nonzero;
+- boots the shipped default config (`examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml`), or the tree named by `--config <path>` (the demo/test escape for booting an alternate example tree), through [`dsh-app-boot`](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md);
+- resumes a persisted session with `dsh --resume <session-id>` and, when the Node host exposes `process.execve`, supplies the TUI's in-place handoff host: after selector preflight and current-session flush, the host disposes the app and replaces the process with a normalized `dsh --resume <id>`; runtimes without process replacement keep the displayed command fallback. The flag provides the id on the boot context under `RESUME_SESSION_ID_KEY` (no environment variable), which the shipped config reads through `!!js`, and a missing or unreadable id fails loud instead of creating a fresh session;
 - treats the **invoking directory** as the workspace — sessions, relative paths, and workspace instructions resolve from the cwd;
 - tells the agent where its own source lives: after boot it adds a prompt section naming this harness checkout, resolved from the launcher's real path so it holds under a PATH symlink and an arbitrary cwd, so the self-referential `cordis` toolset can read and modify it;
 - applies the personal overlay from `~/.dsh` (see [app-boot's Personal config](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md#personal-config)): `.env` fills environment gaps (ambient > project `.env` > personal `.env`), `config.yaml` patches the booted tree.

-The Web surface treats its invoking directory as the default project, loads applicable `AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` instructions into each agent-loop request prefix with a 65,536-byte render budget, and opts into first-message model titles. The headless surface retains deterministic fallback titles without making the auxiliary title-model request.
+The Web and headless surfaces boot one shared composition (`cordis.yml`): both treat the invoking directory as the default project and Workspace root, create named Workspaces beneath that root unless `--workspace-root <path>` overrides it, load applicable `AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` instructions into each agent-loop request prefix with a 65,536-byte render budget, and opt into first-message model titles. Headless differs only in listening on an OS-assigned port (parallel `dsh -p` runs never collide; the stderr-printed URL opens the live session in a browser). Both need the frontend dist and client bundles built (`pnpm run build && pnpm run build:web`).
+
+`DSH_TOOLS_MODE` selects the tool presentation mode for the whole Web/headless process: `native` (the schema default when unset), `code` (the `run_code`-only Code Mode wire), or `both`; any other value fails loud at boot through the `dsh-tools` config schema. It is a TEMPORARY seam — process-wide because Loader composition is static — and is removed once the web UI owns per-session tool-mode selection; the TUI surface ignores it (its config tree pins its own mode).

+# `@deepseek-ai/dsh`
+
+[English](README.md) | 中文
+
+`dsh` 命令行入口遵循 `apps/` 组装层：`apps/*` 是位于 `packages/*` 库之上的产品组装。直接运行 `dsh` 会启动交互式 TUI 编码 agent（智能体），`dsh -p "task"` 运行一个无头轮次，`dsh web` 则提供浏览器 UI。
+
+Argv 只会通过 [Commander](https://github.com/tj/commander.js) 适配器（[`src/args.ts`](src/args.ts)）解析一次：同一个程序的默认形式（无子命令）是 TUI／无头界面（`--config`、`-p`/`--prompt`、`--resume`），`web` 子命令则是浏览器 UI。`src/bin.ts` 按解析后的 mode 分支，仅动态导入该 mode 的模块。`dsh --help` 列出所有 mode，`dsh web --help` 渲染 Web 用法，`dsh --version` 打印此应用的版本；未知选项或拼错的 `--resume` 会明确报错（stderr，退出码 1），而不会被错路由。`dsh web` 的 `--host`/`--port` 是未验证的直通覆盖：`dsh-host-webserver` schema 是默认值（标志缺失时使用已交付的 `cordis.yml` 值）和有效性的唯一真源，并在启动时拒绝错误值。
+
+TUI 界面：
+
+- 启动已交付的默认配置（`examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml`），或由 `--config <path>` 指定的树（演示／测试用于启动其他示例树的逃生口），并通过 [`dsh-app-boot`](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md) 完成启动；
+- 使用 `dsh --resume <session-id>` 恢复已持久化会话。当 Node 宿主公开 `process.execve` 时，还会提供 TUI 的原地移交宿主：选择器预检并刷新当前会话后，宿主会释放应用，并以规范化的 `dsh --resume <id>` 替换进程；不支持进程替换的运行时保留屏幕上显示的命令回退。该标志通过 `RESUME_SESSION_ID_KEY` 在启动上下文中提供 id（不使用环境变量），已交付的配置通过 `!!js` 读取它；缺失或无法读取的 id 会明确报错，而不会创建新会话；
+- 将 **调用目录** 视为 workspace：会话、相对路径和 workspace 指令都从 cwd 解析；
+- 告知 agent 自身源码所在位置：启动后添加一个命名此 harness checkout 的提示词段。该路径从启动器的真实路径解析，因此在 PATH 符号链接和任意 cwd 下仍然有效，使自指的 `cordis` 工具集可以读取并修改它；
+- 应用 `~/.dsh` 中的个人覆盖（参见 [app-boot 的个人配置](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md#personal-config)）：`.env` 填补环境缺口（环境中已有的值 > 项目 `.env` > 个人 `.env`），`config.yaml` 则修补已启动的树。
+
+Web 和无头界面启动同一个共享组合（`cordis.yml`）：两者都将调用目录视为默认项目和 Workspace 根目录，除非通过 `--workspace-root <path>` 覆盖，否则会在该根目录下创建具名 Workspace；它们会把适用的 `AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` 指令加载到每个 agent-loop 请求前缀中，渲染预算为 65,536 字节，并选用首条消息模型标题。无头界面唯一的差异是监听操作系统分配的端口（并行 `dsh -p` 运行绝不冲突；stderr 打印的 URL 会在浏览器中打开实时会话）。两者都需要先构建前端 dist 和客户端 bundle（`pnpm run build && pnpm run build:web`）。
+
+`DSH_TOOLS_MODE` 为整个 Web／无头进程选择工具呈现模式：可选值为 `native`（未设置时的 schema 默认值）、`code`（仅含 `run_code` 的 Code Mode 协议接口）或 `both`；任何其他值都会经由 `dsh-tools` 配置 schema 在启动时明确报错。它是一个临时 seam：Loader 组合是静态的，因此该设置作用于整个进程；待 Web UI 负责逐会话工具模式选择后便会移除。TUI 界面会忽略该变量（其配置树固定了自身模式）。
+
+## 安装（开发机）
+
+将从源码运行的启动器符号链接到 PATH 上；它通过自身真实路径解析 checkout，因此代码更改会在下次启动时生效，无需构建：
+
+```sh
+ln -sf "$(pwd)/bin/dsh" ~/.local/bin/dsh
+```
+
+`pnpm run dsh` 从仓库根目录运行同一入口并直接转发参数，例如 `pnpm run dsh -p "task"`。构建形式（`lib/bin.js`，通过 `pnpm run build`）会在普通 Node 下启动同一配置。

+          You are in plan mode. Stay in plan mode until exit_plan_mode succeeds or the user switches the session mode. Imperative language to implement changes means plan the implementation, not execute it. A user's conversational agreement — including an answer confirming something you asked — approves nothing and does not end plan mode; fold the confirmed decision into the plan and submit it through exit_plan_mode.
+
+          Explore first. Use non-mutating reads, searches, static analysis, and checks to ground the plan in the actual repository. Do not edit or write files, change configuration, run formatters or code generation that rewrites tracked files, commit, or otherwise carry out the plan. Prefer existing functions and patterns over new machinery.
+
+          The tool catalog stays the same across modes for request-cache stability. These plan-mode rules override any later tool description or guidance that suggests using mutation tools; those tools remain listed only to keep the request shape stable. Do not use todo_write to track this planning phase: it tracks implementation after an approved plan, while the plan itself belongs in exit_plan_mode.
+
+          Resolve discoverable facts by inspection. Use ask_user_question only for user-owned choices or material ambiguity that inspection cannot answer. Do not ask the user where code lives or how current behavior works when you can find out.
+
+          Make the plan decision-complete: state the goal and success criteria; group implementation changes by subsystem; identify public API, schema, and data-flow changes; cover edge cases, failure modes, tests, acceptance criteria, and explicit assumptions. Keep it concise enough to review but detailed enough that another engineer can implement it without making design decisions.
+
+          When ready, call exit_plan_mode with the complete plan markdown, starting with a # title. Make exit_plan_mode the only and final tool call in that assistant response: it presents the plan for approval, and implementation begins only in a later step after approval. Do not paste the final plan as a plain reply or ask "should I proceed?" through prose or ask_user_question. If review rejects it, incorporate the feedback and present again. If the review channel is unavailable or aborted, stay in plan mode and ask the user to switch modes manually; do not proceed with implementation.

+ * `dsh` is the sole terminal front door; the TUI owns no non-TTY fallback, so a
+ * piped launch must exit nonzero with a stderr pointer at the one-shot `-p`
+ * mode. The guard fires inside `runTui` BEFORE the Loader resolves the config
+ * tree — a compose-time throw inside the tree is logged per-entry, not
+ * rethrown, so without this guard a piped launch would settle into an idle
+ * UI-less process. The bin resolves its workspace deps through the repo's
+ * node_modules, so no external consumer is assembled; missing-config fail-loud
+ * and full-boot coverage for the shared dsh-app-boot glue live in cli-demo's
+ * built-bin suite, and interactive TTY behavior is PTY-covered by
+ * examples/tui-agent. Skips before the bin is built.
