Master removed the stdio demo (#702c8cc30) — accept the deletion; this
branch's packChunks passthrough survives in acp-demo (auto-merged), and
cli-demo/tui-demo arrived from master without one (the follow-up snapshot
PR decides which demos expose the switch). Generated catalogs regenerated
over merged sources; the hand-written session.md durability paragraph
re-weaves this branch's lossless-encoding wording with master's invariant-
companion sentence.
Master's Zstandard physical encoding (#416) and this branch's packed chunk
rows compose as orthogonal layers: packChunks shapes the logical storage
records, compression shapes the physical bytes. The backend keeps both
config keys; eventLines(events, packChunks) replaces master's singular
eventLine helper and feeds encodeMaterialization/encodeEventBatch so packed
rows flow through either encoding. Demo apps carry both passthroughs. The
packed-row layout tests pin compression: 'none' (they assert textual line
tags) and read through rawLogPath; zstd spec fixtures inline
JSON.stringify for verbatim lines.
Conflicts: the two generated catalog docs (regenerated over merged sources)
and the jsonl backend README storage-layout bullets — master's required
delegationDepth header field weaves with this branch's storage-record/packed
row wording.
A configured root that already exists as a file or unreadable directory cannot host cwd buckets, but the backend previously mounted and deferred that deterministic configuration error until a later list or write.
Probe the resolved root while the plugin loads, surface every error except ENOENT, and keep an absent root valid for lazy first materialization. Document the timing contract, regenerate the config catalog, and pin the non-directory case at the load boundary.
JSONL discovered a log by the requested session id but later routed repair and append from the parsed header. A log selected for session A could therefore declare session B and redirect mutation to B.
Validate the requested id and exact header-derived cwd-bucket path before returning a stored prefix, reject duplicate ids across buckets, and repeat the id/cwd guards in the coordinator before repair or state publication. Collapse the redundant loadLive hook into loadStored while retaining the existing bucket layout and one-live-writer topology, avoiding flat-layout churn and a locator generic that SQLite and test backends do not need.
Conflicts: the four generated catalog docs (regenerated over merged sources),
session index.ts exports (keep chunk-rows exports + master's SessionSurface
re-export), stdio/acp demo config schema and persistence wiring (thread
packChunks through master's DEFAULT_PERSISTENCE_ROOT/UI shape), stdio README
config table, and the jsonl spec import line. The packed-chunk fixture also
gains the provenance field master made required on assistant/message.
Providers stream token-sized deltas, so a session log stores hundreds of
near-identical assistant/chunk lines whose JSON envelopes dwarf their
payloads (~56x measured on a real DeepSeek session, 73% of file bytes).
Add a lossless storage codec to dsh-session: packChunkRuns() folds each
run of >=3 consecutive same-block delta chunks into one storage row --
text-chunks / reasoning-chunks / tool-call-chunks, bare slash-less tags
like the header line's 'session' so rows cannot be confused with session
events -- and decodeStorageRecord() expands rows back to the exact
original events (seq0/time0 + dt gap array reconstruct every member's
seq/time; tool-call rows carry the run-constant id/name). The encoder
whitelists exact shapes and stores anything unrecognized verbatim; the
decoder validates row-tagged values and fails loud on malformation.
The JSONL backend gains a packChunks config (default false). Writing
packs only when enabled -- default-off output stays byte-identical to
the previous layout, so snapshot goldens are untouched. Reading is
layout-blind: scanLog always decodes rows and now checks seq contiguity
with a cursor instead of the line index, so packed, unpacked, and mixed
files all load identically. Fixture readers (llm-replay parseSessionLog,
acp-snapshot normalizeSessionLog) share the codec; the normalizer zeroes
a row's time0/dt exactly like an event's time. The two demo bundles
plumb packChunks from cordis.yml to the backend.
Measured on a real coding session: 105 KB -> 42 KB (-60%), 475 lines ->
74, with reasoning/tool-call heavy sessions saving the most. Covered by
example + fast-check round-trip codec tests, backend packed/mixed/torn-
tail specs, and an end-to-end demo run loading a packed log through a
default-config backend.
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).
Codex review of the trace-event fold found two merge-blockers.
Blocker #1 — format version. Folding usage onto assistant/message and removing
the standalone usage/error events changed the persisted SessionEventMap shape,
which per the AGENTS.md "bump the version and reject — don't migrate" policy
requires a backend to reject any non-current log. Centralize the version in an
exported SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION constant (dsh-session), read by both write sites
(Session constructor default, SessionStore.prepare header) and the coordinator's
load-time assertVersion check. The constant is pinned at 0: while unreleased the
on-disk format is unstable/pre-release, so breaking shape churn is absorbed at v0
(no monotonic bump until the first tagged release) and any non-0 log is rejected
on load — no migration. Update every test/fixture/doc that stamps a
currently-written header to the constant, bump the ACP snapshot fixture + golden
headers to v0, and keep the version-rejection test meaningful by switching its
bad value to a clearly non-current 99. AGENTS.md documents both the monotonic
(SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION) and pinned-0 (session log) pre-release stances.
Blocker #2 — restore the late turn-end warn. failTurn now sets the error reason
only while the turn is still open; once turn/end is appended (a throwing
agent/turn-end listener after closeTurn) the reason can no longer reach the
durable log, so the late throw is logged via ctx.logger.warn instead of
vanishing into a futile post-close assignment. A regression test asserts the
warn fires.
Also guard the normal-step assistant/message append with the same
content-or-usage condition as the max-tokens branch (a content-less, usage-less
step records no trace-only row), with a covering test.
Two capability seams carried abstract methods no production consumer calls.
A method no consumer programs against is not a seam — it is speculative
surface every implementation must still provide and test.
- SessionPersistence: remove has() and delete(), the coordinator's
has/delete/deleteCore, and the PersistenceBackend.deleteStored hook (with its
jsonl + sqlite + in-spec memory-stub impls). Surviving service surface:
create/append/load/list. Production uses only load() (resume) and list()
(ACP session/list).
- BashExecutor: remove get(id) and list(), the abstract decls and the
LocalBashExecutor impls. The internal tasks map survives (it backs
ownerOf/readOutput/kill); get/list were pure public accessors over it with no
shipping caller and no bash_list tool.
- Migrate tests that reached through ctx.bash.get(id) to the public completion
seam: a doneFor(id) helper over onTaskDone awaits a task by id, and the
HMR-reload ownership test now proves task survival through A's own bash_output
([status: running]) plus ownerOf + B-rejection — a stronger through-the-tool
assertion than the removed lookup peek.
- Update seam READMEs (six -> four service methods, drop the deleteStored hook
and the get/list row) and the two implemented persistence RFCs in place.
Implements docs/rfc/implemented/simplification/2026-06-20-prune-dead-seam-methods.md
Merge brought in the RFC-classification reorg and two new doc gates;
rewrite every drifted packages/<name> cross-link (Markdown link targets,
moved-README relative depths, and .ts comment paths) to the grouped paths.
Add two doc-sync/hygiene gates so the manual checks this restructure
needed become automated:
- verify-package-paths.ts: flags a packages/<path> reference (in Markdown
or a .ts comment/string) that does not resolve AND names a real package
in a segment — i.e. a stale path to a MOVED package. A path naming a
non-existent package (a forward-looking proposal) is left alone, so it
applies uniformly across proposed/implemented/rejected.
- check-workspace-constraints: assert the packages/<group>/<pkg> depth-2
shape (group dirs carry no package.json; no flat or over-nested
packages). Group names stay open; only the shape is fixed.
Move the 18 flat packages/<name> packages into role-grouped dirs:
core/, llm/, bash/, session-persistence/, ui/, support/. Group dirs are
pure containers; each package keeps its @deepseek-ai/dsh-* name.
Collapse the per-package tsconfig paths maps (base + typecheck) into one
@deepseek-ai/dsh-* wildcard with a candidate per group, and derive the
publint list from the hierarchy. Update all depth-coupled globs/configs
(workspace, tsdown, vitest, eslint, knip, tsconfig includes/refs,
per-package tsconfigs, generators, doc-script scopes, type-equiv manifest)
and the cross-package/script relative imports in tests.
Fix doc-typecheck's workspacePaths() to parse tsconfig JSONC via the
TypeScript API instead of a regex comment-strip, which corrupted the
new wildcard `/*/` path candidates.
WIP: doc cross-links and package/RFC docs still to update.
