Implements the durable-subagent-catalog RFC: SubagentControlService.listChildren()
enumerates a parent's direct continuable children from one sessionQuery trace,
validates each child's sole subagent/descriptor event (now carrying the durable
creation label), and returns one ordered SubagentListEntry[] with per-child
corrupt/unsupported/unavailable diagnostics. The list_agents tool ships as a
separately loadable plugin of dsh-tool-subagent-control requiring sessionQuery
at load; send_message stays usable without it.
Remove the host-user continuation capability and the public residency query,
then separate the seam's public event payloads from its internal lifecycle
control interfaces.
`followup()` now takes the exact live direct parent `Agent` instead of a
`SubagentAuthority` union. No production adapter ever supplied user authority,
so the `UserAuthorityGrant` brand token existed only to stop a forged
discriminant from bypassing the direct-parent check — deleting the branch
retires the token, its mint method, and that attack surface together.
Narrowing `parent` from `Agent | undefined` to `Agent` removes three special
cases, including the path where a parentless epoch dispatched its lifecycle
events unscoped. Scoped-versus-global dispatch is now decided by the event, not
by whether a caller happened to have a parent.
`activationState()` had no caller; `ActivationState`, `ActivationObserver`, and
`ContinuationHost` are package-private.
New `src/lifecycle.ts` owns the contained emitter, the one-shot run observer,
and the Activation observer, while `SubagentRunInfo`/`SubagentRunEndInfo` move
to `src/types.ts` beside the other consumer-facing contracts. Those payloads are
public API — dsh-jsonrpc, hooks-claude, and the package invariant all consume
them — whereas the observer is a contract between two in-package collaborators,
so they no longer share a home merely for both being lifecycle-shaped. The
service keeps ownership of the scope carrier: `scopeTarget()` composes the
service's own context filter, so a narrowed stand-in would silently change
scope filtering.
Also drops now-unused dsh-tasks-local and dsh-tool-tasks dev dependencies, and
corrects the README claim that a pre-residency failure emits a terminal edge —
that path only ever rethrew.
- Wire the control service and send_message tool into every shipped
composition with a resumable provider and background enabled
(headless-agent, tui-agent, and the SDK helper's subagent feature
base resources); jsonrpc-agent disables background and is unchanged.
- Resolve the send_message availability check in the CALLER's tool
scope so a restriction that removes the follow-up tool from one
agent also blocks that agent's continuable start.
- Control-service disposal now cancels live activations and awaits
producer settlement instead of stranding them: TaskService keeps
producer Tasks across a reload, so the disposing service aborts each
activation-owned controller, resolves its terminal gate (the
effect-scoped onTaskDone listener is already gone), and awaits done.
A new test kills a mid-start activation through HMR disposal.
Implement the continuable background subagents RFC: a durable child
session with a series of Task-backed activations, each disposing its
run before the Task settles.
- dsh-subagent: rename SubagentRun.sendMessage to strict steer, drop
run-level resume, add SubagentProvider.resume dispatch via
SubagentService.resume, the continuation start field, and the
versioned model-hidden subagent/descriptor session event.
- dsh-subagent-inprocess/-spawn/-fork: publish the control-allocated
child id, append the descriptor inside the initial turn, implement
cold resume from the child's own transcript under the live parent
scope, and strict running-only steer.
- dsh-subagent-control (new): SubagentControlService owning stable
child ids, descriptor snapshot/fold/authorization, Task-backed
activation with settle-then-dispose ordering, the process-local
active-run association, and steer-or-resume sendMessage routing.
- dsh-tool-subagent: background route branches on the provider's
resume capability (continuable via the control service; one-shot
task for ACP), returning both child and task ids.
- dsh-tool-subagent-control (new): the globally named send_message
tool rendering steered/started routes.
Keyless coverage spans Task ownership and disposal ordering, running
delivery, cold follow-up, descriptor rejection and rollback, known-id
reconstruction, kill during lookup, admission races, and a new
subagent-continuable ACP snapshot scenario.
The shipped-roster change made @deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-session-query a
default row of the shared base.cordis.yml, so the TUI and Web surfaces
put the five session-search tools in front of the model. That
contradicts the recorded opt-in stance for the model-facing session
query consumer; the ACP example remains the mounted reference.
Remove the row from the shared base, the now-dangling disabled patch in
the opt-in core-web profile, and the workspace dependency. The
ctx.sessionQuery index stays: the TUI's /resume and the Web content
search consume it directly. Both shipped-composition tests now pin the
20-tool catalog.
Windows-native execution foundation: PwshLocalExecutor implements the bash
executor seam over ctx.subprocess (pwsh -NoLogo -NoProfile -NonInteractive
-Command, one argv element, no quoting layer; resolvePwshPath probes
PowerShell 7 / PATH / Windows PowerShell 5.1 as a pure function), and
tool-pwsh is the minimal PowerShell-dialect model-facing tool over ctx.bash
(foreground only, managed DSH_* env, timeout/signal/exit markers, terminal
and generic presenters). Both packages carry full suites (real pwsh,
self-skipping without it) at per-file 100% coverage; vitest's Windows
exclusion narrows from packages/bash/* to the bash-requiring packages so the
pwsh suites run natively on Windows too. The CLI gains the workspace deps
and tsconfig projects without mounting either plugin; the Windows-default
roadmap is recorded as a proposed Agent Note.
glob/grep now run the @vscode/ripgrep binary via ctx.subprocess with a plain
argv vector: no system rg install, no shell layer, unconditional registration.
The load-time command -v rg probe and the bash-seam coupling are removed;
timeouts ride the cooperative exec.signal plus the seam's terminate
escalation. The fs-glob-sampling ACP snapshot executes the real packaged
binary against an mtime-pinned fixture. Adds the packaged-ripgrep-search
Agent Note, updates the roster-note facts and both shipped-composition e2es,
and regenerates the doc catalogs and third-party notices (surfacing
pre-existing manifest drift plus the new @vscode/ripgrep row; the notices
generator also learns pnpm 11's truncated virtual-store names).
The two shipped surfaces offered different tools for no recorded reason:
session checkpoints, tool-result pruning, the goal tools, and Ralph were in
`tui.cordis.yml`; `tool-todo` and web search were in `web.cordis.yml`. Neither
offered session search, a string-replacement editor, or a repeat-tool guard,
though none of the three is surface-specific.
Move the rows that are not surface-specific into `base.cordis.yml` and add
those three. Web search moves there too — the TUI decision the change that
made it a Web default deferred. Both surfaces now assemble the same 27 tools.
This adds only. No row is removed from either surface and no existing row's
configuration is edited: executors, sandbox composition, access defaults,
`tools.mode`, and the workflow tool are exactly what they were. Two rows stay
surface-specific: `tmux-context` (no terminal multiplexer in a browser) and
`session-reference` (its index has one writer owner).
Ship `dsh-mcp-client` as a dependency without a row: the plugin mounts one
server per instance and `command` is required, so a default would name a
third-party server and spawn it outside `ctx.bash` on every launch. The CLI
README carries the YAML for mounting one from a personal config.
