Add a gated Known Limitations and Deferred Work section to every package README
Every packages/*/* README now carries a canonical '## Known Limitations and
Deferred Work' section: condensed, evidence-backed bullets for consumer-visible
gaps (unimplemented features, platform caveats, MVP cuts) and consciously
postponed work (TODO/FIXME/XXX markers, RFC deferrals still open). The ten
pre-existing ad-hoc variants ('What is NOT here (TODO)', 'Deferred',
'Limitations (MVP)', 'Known limitations (tracked TODOs)', ...) are normalized
into the canonical heading.
A new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-readme-limitations.ts, enforces the shape:
exactly one limitations-like heading per package README, byte-equal to the
canonical h2, with at least one bullet; near-miss headings fail so variants
cannot creep back. Packages with genuinely nothing to declare (dsh-brand,
dsh-timeout, dsh-subagent-mock, dsh-app-boot) are whitelisted in the script and
must NOT carry the section; whitelist entries are validated against the scanned
package set so a rename fails loud.
Wired into the doc-sync chain (package.json) and the run-gates doc-sync leaf
set; the standing rule lands in packages/AGENTS.md and the adding-a-package
cookbook; decision record in
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-10-readme-known-limitations-gate.md
(RFC index regenerated).
Also fixes two stale '(deferred)' markers claiming dsh-compact-basic is
unimplemented (the dsh-compact seam README's package table and the seam's
module doc comment).

- **Append-only.** Committed events (at or below a flushed `turn/end`) are never rewritten. Subsequent appends are line appends at EOF + `fsync`.
|
||||
- **Crash recovery — close, don't truncate.** A crash can leave a log whose final turn never closed (real events after the last `turn/end`). `load` PRESERVES those events (a turn can be huge — they are real work) and closes the orphaned turn by durably appending synthetic boundary events: an error `tool/result` for every `tool-call` the crash left unanswered (the loop logs the assistant message before running the tools, so a mid-tool crash leaves dangling calls — and `deriveMessages()` would replay an assistant tool-call with no result, which providers reject), then a `step/end` if a step was open, then `turn/end {kind:'interrupted'}`, returning a balanced log. Only a never-fully-written **torn tail fragment** (a final line with no newline / unparseable) is `ftruncate`d away before the closers are written. See [session persistence](../../../docs/rfc/implemented/architecture/2026-06-14-session-persistence.md).
|
||||
- **Contiguous-seq.** `load` rejects a mid-log parse error or `seq` gap (unloadable); `append` rejects a batch whose first `seq` does not continue the stored log, and rejects non-JSON-serializable `event.data` naming the offending event type.
|
||||
- **Format version.** Only the current `SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION` (v0) is supported; `load` rejects any other version. While the harness is unreleased the on-disk format is pre-release/unstable: a breaking format change is absorbed at v0 (no bump until the first tagged release) and non-current logs are rejected — there is no migration (no persisted user data to preserve).

## Write path

|

The plugin generalizes the example `session-jsonl.ts`: it subscribes to `session/created` (capture the header; persist a fork's seed once), `session/event` (snapshot each event when buffering — the live `session.events` object is mutable), and `session/flush`/dispose (drain the write-behind buffer through `append`). A per-session write cursor means a resumed session never re-appends already-stored events. Existing live sessions are seeded on plugin apply (HMR does not replay `session/created`). All backend operations for one session are serialized, and disposal awaits quiescence (every init + final drain) before returning, so no write lands after teardown.

## Known Limitations and Deferred Work

|

- **Only the current `SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION` (v0) loads** — the on-disk format is pre-release/unstable: a breaking format change is absorbed at v0 and non-current logs are rejected; there is no migration.
|
||||
- **Nothing deletes session files** — logs accumulate under `root` until removed externally (the seam has no deletion surface).
|
||||
- **Single-process assumption** — per-session serialization and the write cursor live in this process; two processes appending to the same `root` are not coordinated.
