Messages are arrays of typed content blocks (`text`, `reasoning`, `tool-call`, `tool-result`). The union derives from the merge-extensible `ContentBlockMap`; the same pattern types `MessageSource`, `FinishReason`, `TurnTrigger`, and `TurnEndReason`. New block types are coordinated across adapters, UI bridges, compaction pricing, and persistence, so block types remain a repo-wide contract.
Streaming is a raw chunk protocol (`block-start` through `finish`) with `BlockAssembler` as the shared chunk-to-block assembler. The loop logs raw chunks while assembling them for dispatch. `LlmAdapter` is the provider seam: subclass, implement `stream()`, and register with `ctx.llm.registerAdapter(models, adapter)`. StreamChunk conventions live in [llm-streaming.md](core-data-structures/llm-streaming.md).
Streaming uses raw chunks (`block-start` through `finish`) and `BlockAssembler`. The loop logs and assembles chunks, storing assistant provider/model provenance plus replay state. An `LlmAdapter` implements `stream()` and registers routes with `ctx.llm.registerAdapter(providers, adapter)`; requests route by `provider`, while the adapter resolves `model`. Replay state reaches a target only when both routes map to the same adapter instance, which owns validation and conversion. The contract lives in [llm-streaming.md](core-data-structures/llm-streaming.md).

- Errors have exactly two sanctioned paths: THROW from `stream()` (transport and protocol failures — use `LlmError` with a stable code), or end the stream with `finish {kind: 'error' | 'aborted'}` (provider in-band failures). Consumers handle both; pick per failure class and document it.
- Honor `options.signal` (pass it to fetch / your SDK).
- A `GenerateOptions` field your provider cannot honor (e.g. a `stop` list on a provider without stop sequences): throw `LlmError(..., 'UNSUPPORTED')` rather than silently dropping it.
- If the provider requires response ids, signatures, or other native metadata on follow-up calls, emit the minimal lossless-JSON projection as `finish.replayState`. Validate it when rebuilding history. `LlmService` passes it only when the historical provider route and target provider route are currently owned by the exact same adapter instance; your adapter decides whether same-model, cross-model, or cross-provider restoration is legal. Never infer native replay from provider/model names alone when state is absent.

The `agent/request` waterfall receives a frozen `LlmCallConfig` seed and a listener returns a replacement to switch model or sampling; the `agent/session-prefix` waterfall — fired once per loop instance — composes the request-only messages fronting the derived history (recorded as the header's `messagePrefix`) — the loop logs whatever the request actually uses.

On the wire, a loop-built request reads in this order: the `system` slot (the rendered prompt assembly) → `messagePrefix` (the frozen session prefix) → the derived history — the boundary snapshot, whose tail is the newest `user/message` on a turn's first step and the previous step's tool results on later steps. The prefix never enters the derived history; its durable record is the header events, and the dev invariant recomputes exactly this equation against every loop-built request.

- **Two sanctioned error paths.** A failure may either THROW from `stream()` (transport/protocol errors) **or** end the stream with `finish {kind:'error'|'aborted'}` (provider in-band errors, for adapters that can't throw mid-stream). Consumers must handle *both*. The agent loop translates a finish-error/aborted into a turn error — it never logs a normal completed assistant message for a failed step.
- **Every provider HTTP request carries the app-attribution header.** Adapters send `attributionHeaders()` (below) - the `User-Agent` baseline - and prove it with a wire-level test (mock server asserting the received header, or the library's header hook for a library-backed adapter).
- **Replay state is adapter-owned.** A successful `finish` may carry lossless-JSON state needed to reconstruct a native provider response. The loop stores it with the assembled assistant message unless an `agent/step-result` listener rewrote the content. On a later request, `LlmService` passes the state only when the historical provider and target provider are currently registered to the exact same adapter instance. That adapter validates the state and owns any cross-model or cross-provider conversion; other adapters receive the provider-neutral content and provenance without the private state.
This contract is why two adapters exist as a deliberate pair: `dsh-llm-deepseek` (hand-rolled fetch/SSE) and `dsh-llm-pi-ai` (the same endpoint through `@earendil-works/pi-ai`). Two independent internals over one contract is what pinned the protocol down — the library-backed adapter can't throw mid-stream, so it exercises the finish-chunk error path the hand-rolled one might not.

`LlmAdapter` is the provider seam: subclass, implement `stream()`, register with `ctx.llm.registerAdapter(models, adapter)`. The `block-start` / `block-end` `index` correlation and the assembler together mean an adapter only has to emit well-formed chunks — block reassembly is not each adapter's problem.

`LlmAdapter` is the provider seam: subclass, implement `stream()`, and register one adapter instance with `ctx.llm.registerAdapter(providers, adapter)`. `GenerateOptions.provider` selects the registered adapter; `GenerateOptions.model` is passed to that adapter and need not be registered at lifecycle start. Duplicate provider routes fail atomically. Adapter lookup happens at the terminal continuation of the `llm/stream` waterfall, so a listener may short-circuit the call or route a mutable one-shot request before lookup.

# RFC: Provider-routed LLM adapters and a generic pi-ai backend
Status: implemented
## Problem
`dsh-llm` registered adapters by exact model name. A plugin supplied a model list at Cordis startup, `LlmService` stored one adapter per listed string, and `GenerateOptions.model` selected the adapter and the provider model at once. This worked while both shipping adapters targeted the same two DeepSeek models, but it conflated two independent decisions: which upstream provider owns a request, and which model that provider should run.
The conflation prevents a provider gateway from serving an open-ended model catalog. OpenRouter, for example, is one provider with many model ids, while a private OpenAI-compatible endpoint may add models without changing the Harness plugin tree. Every newly selected model currently needs to have been registered during plugin startup. The same model id can also exist at multiple providers, so model-only registration cannot state which provider the caller intended.
`dsh-llm-pi-ai` exposed none of pi-ai's provider abstraction. It constructed an inline DeepSeek `openai-completions` model, applied DeepSeek-specific payload patches, and stamped every replayed assistant message as DeepSeek. pi-ai itself has a provider/model catalog, selects APIs such as `openai-responses`, `anthropic-messages`, and `google-generative-ai`, and preserves provider-specific response ids and reasoning/tool signatures for later turns. The Harness conversion dropped that provenance, so simply replacing the inline model with a catalog lookup would have made same-model replay and cross-provider handoff incomplete.
The adapter configuration also assumes one DeepSeek API key and endpoint. A generic backend needs independent credentials and endpoint overrides per provider while leaving AWS, Google ADC, OAuth, and other ambient authentication mechanisms to pi-ai.
## Decision
### Provider is the adapter registration key
`GenerateOptions` and `LlmCallConfig` carry `provider: string` beside `model: string`; `AgentOptions` carries the corresponding optional creation field. A loop request is valid only after both values are non-empty, and both values are part of the logged request header. `agent/request` may return a replacement pair on any step, so a session can switch providers and models without changing the Cordis plugin lifecycle.
`LlmService` registers and resolves adapters by provider. `registerAdapter(providers, adapter)` checks the entire provider list before mutating the registry, rejects a duplicate with `DUPLICATE_ADAPTER`, and disposes the whole registration as one effect. `providers()` reports the registered keys. Model ids are not registered or enumerated by the service; the selected adapter validates or forwards them.
A provider has exactly one adapter owner in a Cordis context. `dsh-llm-deepseek` registers `deepseek`; `dsh-llm-pi-ai` may also register `deepseek`, but loading both owners is a configuration error rather than an ordering rule or fallback. A deployment that wants the hand-rolled DeepSeek implementation excludes `deepseek` from the pi-ai profiles. A deployment that wants pi-ai's DeepSeek implementation does not mount `dsh-llm-deepseek`.
`dsh-llm-deepseek` removes its model registration list and accepts any model string routed through provider `deepseek`. Its request serialization, `/chat/completions` endpoint, thinking options, SSE parsing, and error behavior remain unchanged; `options.model` is still sent verbatim.
### Explicit pi-ai provider profiles
`dsh-llm-pi-ai` takes one non-empty list of provider profiles. Provider names must be unique within the list and present in pi-ai's `getProviders()` result. Each profile contains the provider name plus optional `apiKey`, `baseURL`, headers, reasoning level and budgets, cache retention, transport, timeouts, and retry settings. Credentials are never global: an explicit key applies only to its profile, while an absent key lets pi-ai resolve its standard environment variable, OAuth token, AWS credential chain, Google ADC, or other provider-native ambient authentication. An explicitly empty key is invalid configuration rather than an environment fallback.
The plugin registers all configured provider names against one `PiAiAdapter` in one all-or-nothing call. A request uses its provider to select the matching profile and finds its model in `getModels(provider)` to obtain the catalog descriptor. An unknown provider fails at plugin load; an unknown model fails before network I/O with `UNKNOWN_MODEL`. The catalog object is never mutated. When a profile supplies `baseURL`, the adapter clones the selected descriptor and overrides only `baseUrl`, so a private endpoint can retain pi-ai's API, capabilities, compatibility flags, context limits, and reasoning map. The private endpoint must implement the selected provider's protocol, and the model id must still exist in the installed pi-ai catalog.
The adapter calls pi-ai's `streamSimple()` so each catalog model chooses its registered API implementation, including OpenAI Responses instead of Chat Completions where the descriptor says `openai-responses`. Harness temperature, maximum tokens, signal, session id, and the profile's common stream options flow through directly. Profile headers merge with the mandatory Harness attribution headers, with Harness attribution winning its reserved names. The adapter no longer maintains DeepSeek-specific payload rewrites or a provider-protocol matrix.
pi-ai's common stream options do not expose stop sequences. `dsh-llm-pi-ai` rejects a defined Harness `stop` option with `UNSUPPORTED_OPTION` rather than silently ignoring it or growing a second provider-specific payload implementation. `dsh-llm-deepseek` continues to support `stop` through its native request serializer.
### Durable assistant provenance and replay state
Assistant messages carry provider-neutral provenance containing the request's `provider` and `model`, plus an optional JSON-serializable adapter replay state. A successful `assistant/message` session event records this provenance and `deriveMessages()` returns it with the assistant message. User, system, context, and tool-result messages carry no assistant provenance. The provider/model fields are authoritative loop data; an adapter owns only its opaque replay-state payload.
A terminal successful `finish` chunk may carry replay state, and `BlockAssembler` retains it alongside usage and finish reason. The loop attaches it to the assistant provenance only when the post-`agent/step-result` content is structurally equal to the assembled provider output. A listener that rewrites content keeps the provider/model provenance but loses the now-stale replay state. Error and aborted responses do not produce a normal assistant message and therefore do not enter future model history.
The pi-ai replay state is a versioned, minimal projection of its successful `AssistantMessage`: source API/provider/model, response id/model, stop reason, and index-aligned text, thinking, and tool-call signatures. It does not duplicate text or tool arguments already carried by Harness content blocks, and it omits diagnostics, timestamps, usage, and errors. On a later request, `LlmService` gives replay state to the target adapter only when the historical provider and target provider are currently owned by the same adapter instance. That adapter combines the logged Harness content with replay state when it can restore the historical response, and owns any required cross-model or cross-provider conversion. An adapter receiving replay state with an unknown version or mismatched block shape fails explicitly; a different adapter receives only provider-neutral content and provenance.
This state is model-visible replay input and therefore follows the existing [reconstructable-request rule](../../implemented/architecture/2026-07-05-reconstructable-requests.md): it is present in both the terminal `finish` chunk and the assembled `assistant/message` provenance that drives derivation. Resume and fork preserve it verbatim. Compaction that shadows the assistant message also removes its replay state from the active surface; the summary is ordinary provider-neutral content.
### Propagate the target through every request producer
Every model-selection surface carries provider and model together: declarative agents, ACP and stdio app config, the JSON-RPC initialize request, subagent overrides and inheritance, workflow child overrides, and direct compaction summarization. Subagents inherit both fields from their parent before applying request overrides. The system-prompt variable set gains `provider` beside `model`.
Compaction configuration gains `summarizationProvider` beside `summarizationModel`. Both are empty to inherit, or both are non-empty to select an explicit target; a half-configured pair fails load. Inheritance uses the last logged request target when one exists and falls back to the agent's creation options. `compact/summary` records both fields with the existing model-call envelope.
The JSON-RPC runtime receives provider and model explicitly. Its convenience fallback mounts `dsh-llm-deepseek` only for provider `deepseek` when that provider has no registered owner; other missing providers fail without guessing an adapter.
The on-disk session format remains the pre-release pinned version `0`, with no compatibility promise. Seed/load validation rejects request headers lacking provider and assistant messages lacking required provenance instead of accepting an old shape that can no longer reconstruct the request.
## Alternatives considered
**Keep model names as registry keys and add wildcard adapters.** A wildcard introduces fallback ordering between exact registrations and catch-all plugins, makes duplicate ownership dependent on listener order, and still cannot distinguish the same model id at two providers without another convention.
**Encode provider and model into one string.** Values such as OpenRouter's `openai/gpt-*` already contain provider-like prefixes and slashes. A delimiter convention would leak routing syntax into every model selector and require escaping rules; two explicit fields are unambiguous and independently loggable.
**Add `backend + provider + model`.** A backend key would allow `dsh-llm-deepseek` and pi-ai's DeepSeek implementation to coexist and switch per request. The accepted deployment rule is instead one adapter owner per provider: implementations of the same upstream are alternatives selected by plugin composition. A third routing dimension would burden every request and configuration for a capability with no current consumer.
**Let `dsh-llm-pi-ai` automatically register every pi-ai provider.** This would claim ambient credentials and provider names the deployment never intended to expose, and would conflict with native adapters such as `dsh-llm-deepseek`. Explicit profiles make capability and credential scope reviewable.
**Mount one pi-ai plugin instance per provider.** Separate instances isolate config but repeat plugin declarations and cannot make profile registration atomic. One adapter already receives provider on every request, so a validated profile map is the smaller lifecycle surface.
**Accept arbitrary inline pi-ai model descriptors.** This would support catalog-external private model ids, but it exposes pi-ai's model and compatibility schema as Harness configuration and makes the adapter responsible for validating protocol-specific combinations. The first version supports custom endpoints by overriding `baseURL` on catalog models; custom descriptors require a separate decision after a real catalog-external deployment is identified.
## Consequences
- Provider names are deployment-wide route ownership keys: two providers may use the same model string, but mounting two adapters for one provider fails at load instead of creating fallback order.
- Model selection no longer changes the Cordis plugin graph. Catalog-backed adapters can accept any installed catalog model selected after startup, while the native DeepSeek adapter forwards arbitrary DeepSeek model ids.
- A custom `baseURL` preserves the selected catalog model's protocol and capabilities; it does not make catalog-external model ids valid. Private endpoints must implement that catalog entry's protocol.
- pi-ai credentials and transport knobs are scoped per provider profile. An omitted key delegates to pi-ai ambient authentication, while an explicitly empty key is invalid.
- `dsh-llm-pi-ai` rejects stop sequences because pi-ai's common stream API cannot express them; the native DeepSeek adapter retains its stop support.
- Replay state is portable only within the adapter instance that owns both the historical and target providers. Cross-provider and cross-model restoration is an adapter responsibility, and another adapter receives provider-neutral history without the opaque state.
- Current pre-release session JSONL requires provider/model request headers and assistant provenance. Older shapes remain version `0` but are rejected rather than migrated.
## Testing
- Unit coverage exercises registry conflicts, request reconstruction, session validation, profile resolution, option forwarding, native API selection including OpenAI Responses, conversion, replay validation, error mapping, cancellation, content rewrites, and same-instance versus different-instance replay dispatch.
- Keyless loop/session tests and ACP snapshots exercise durable provider/model metadata, resume and fork propagation, workflow/subagent overrides, and unchanged user-visible transcripts; the key-gated DeepSeek e2e retains real provider streaming and tool follow-up coverage.
- Public JSDoc, package READMEs, architecture and core-data-structure docs, generated catalogs, examples, session fixtures, and Python SDK pairs use provider/model targets consistently and are checked by the repository documentation and type-equivalence gates.
## Risks
This is a repo-wide pre-release API break: model-only request construction, adapter registration, app protocols, fixtures, and persisted version-0 event shapes all change together, with no compatibility aliases. The provider exclusivity rule deliberately prevents two implementations of the same upstream from coexisting in one context. A pi-ai dependency update can change the accepted provider/model catalog, so the lockfile and adapter e2e matrix define the tested set. Custom `baseURL` endpoints inherit the chosen catalog model's protocol assumptions and cannot repair an incompatible proxy. Catalog-external model descriptors and multimodal content remain unsupported. pi-ai replay state may contain opaque encrypted reasoning signatures; it is persisted because the provider requires it for continuity, but it is never rendered or logged outside the existing session record.

Run a JavaScript workflow script that orchestrates subagents at scale. Use this for work that fans out across many independent pieces — an audit over many files, a migration, multi-angle research, adversarial verification of findings — where you write the orchestration as a script instead of delegating turn by turn.
The workflow's identity rides the `meta` parameter as JSON: required `name` (short kebab-case) and `description` strings, optional `whenToUse` string and `phases` array (`{title, detail?, model?}`). The `script` parameter is the plain JavaScript body ONLY (NOT TypeScript, and NO `export const meta` statement — meta is a parameter, not code), running with top-level await; end with `return <value>` — the value must be JSON-serializable and is this tool's result.

Resolves `null` when the child fails (filter with `.filter(Boolean)`). Other opts: `label` (display), `phase` (progress group), `model` (override). Anything else (`effort`/`isolation`/`agentType`) is rejected loudly.

- `parallel(thunks): Promise<any[]>` — run zero-argument functions concurrently and await ALL of them (a barrier; use only when a stage genuinely needs every prior result together). A throwing thunk resolves to `null`.
- `phase(title)` — start a progress phase; `log(message)` — narrate progress; `args` — the tool call's `args` input, verbatim.
