context/message previously defaulted to a <context source="…">…</context>
wrapper. No model is trained on a <context> tag either, and message
framing does not belong on the session surface: the surface projects the
durable log, and a caller that wants a frame formats its own content —
which the one heavy producer (workspace-context) already does with its own
<system-reminder> frame, opting out via 'raw'. The tag only added
machinery — ContextEnvelope plus an envelope field threaded through
InjectOptions, HookContext, the context/message event, and the agent-loop
inject/additionalContexts plumbing.
context/message now projects its content verbatim as a user-role message,
sharing one deriveEventMessage case with user/message and steering/message.
ContextEnvelope and every envelope field are removed; context/message.meta
still carries durable, model-hidden JSON state. Regenerated catalogs and
website API; refreshed the three affected keyless snapshots (envelope field
only; timestamps unchanged).
Broadens and renames the steering Agent Note to cover both envelope
removals as one decision.

steering/message previously rendered inside a <steering source="…">
envelope like context/message. No model is trained on a <steering> tag,
so the framing is arbitrary markup the model was never taught to read;
recorded transcripts show it treating the instruction as third-party
metadata and refusing it. Framing also does not belong on the session
surface — a caller that wants a frame formats its own content. It now
projects verbatim as a plain user-role message; the <context> envelope is
untouched and renderTagged becomes context-only.

A TUI run against an unreachable endpoint failed with only 'fetch failed':
undici wraps transport failures in a bare TypeError whose diagnosis lives
on .cause, and every diagnostic seam rendered only error.message. The
readline front door additionally rendered failed turns as pure silence.
- dsh-llm: new errorChain(value) renders the full cause chain and
AggregateError members with circular/hostile-coercion containment.
- llm-deepseek: pre-response transport failures throw LlmError('NETWORK')
naming the endpoint and chaining the fetch TypeError; aborts keep their
DOMException so the loop still classifies them as cancellation.
- agent-loop: durable turn/end error messages and logger warnings render
through errorChain; local renderThrown copies removed.
- ui-stdio: failure turn/end reasons now render ([turn failed <code>],
[turn aborted], [turn rejected], output-token-limit); startup-failure
logs use errorChain.
- ui-tui: agent/error notices and the startup-failure line use errorChain.
A source-of-truth link did not make the review obligation explicit, so reviewers could treat green documentation checks as sufficient. Make dsh-prose-standard a blocking requirement for every added or changed prose form and require semantic comparison with the owning code or behavior.
A saved complete-file candidate could overwrite newer skill guidance, while a provider-wide outage was indistinguishable from a healthy no-op run. Record the source blob and provenance, reject drift during promotion, and make total adapter failure visible.
Align cadence and feedback acquisition with the evidence contract, and narrow the borrowed-state and negative-control checks so they do not contradict the package and testing standards.
Move the agent-spine bundle and the stdio/ACP/JSON-RPC app packages out of
core/ and ui/ into a new packages/examples/ group, renamed with a -demo
suffix so the npm name marks them as non-product surface:
core/agent-core -> examples/agent-spine-demo (dsh-agent-spine-demo)
ui/stdio-agent -> examples/stdio-demo (dsh-stdio-demo)
ui/acp-agent -> examples/acp-demo (dsh-acp-demo)
ui/jsonrpc-agent -> examples/jsonrpc-demo (dsh-jsonrpc-demo)
Update every code/config/test reference and reference-only doc mentions, and
regenerate module-graph, config-catalog, and doc-graphs. The jsonrpc bin
(dsh-jsonrpc-agent) and single-file exe (dsh-jsonrpc-agent-pkg) keep their
names; the SDK runtime-startup surface is reconciled separately.
Verified against gh: --base filters server-side and exactly, so any
open dependent guarantees a non-zero print, but --jq length counts the
fetched page and gh's default --limit is 30 (--limit 5 prints 5 when
the true count is 20). The printed number is min(actual, limit), so the
skill no longer claims it as the auto-close count; only 0 clears a
delete.
Review comment on the verify step: dumping every open PR under
--limit 1000 wastes agent context and re-truncates past 1000. Ask the
exact question server-side instead: gh pr list --state open
--base <branch> --json number --jq length, whose output is a single
count that is exact at any number of open PRs. Skill, checklist, and
the cookbook dependent-check line all use the per-branch form.
Second review round: 'gh pr merge' can return after merely enabling
auto-merge when required checks are pending or a merge queue is active,
so retargeting the next PR could run against a master that does not yet
contain the parent. The procedure and checklist now require
'gh pr view <n> --json state' to report MERGED after every merge.
Codex review caught three procedure defects: the dependent check used
bare 'gh pr list', whose default pagination can hide an open dependent
and make branch deletion look safe (now --state open --limit 1000); the
refresh step merged local master, which 'gh pr merge' leaves stale (now
fetch and merge origin/master); and the quick checklist omitted pushing
the dependent after the local merge.
Commit the stacked-PR landing procedure as a repo skill so every
collaborator's agent discovers it: merge bottom-up, retarget and refresh
each dependent, and delete no branch until the whole stack has landed
(deleting a base branch auto-closes the open PR that bases on it).
The responding-to-pr-review-on-a-stack cookbook guide's dependent-check
step links the skill as the full landing procedure.
Define the in-file RFC contract in docs/rfc/README.md § The file format:
the header block (`# RFC: <title>` plus a dateless Status enum
cross-checked against the lifecycle folder), the per-lifecycle body
skeleton (a Problem opener everywhere; Proposal/Alternatives considered/
Acceptance criteria/Risks in proposed/; present-tense Decision/
Consequences with proposal-era headings banned in implemented/; the
frozen proposal shape in rejected/), and a mandatory Alternatives
considered section with a date-fenced grandfather comment for pre-format
RFCs whose alternatives are not reconstructible from the record.
Enforce it with a new doc-sync gate, scripts/verify-rfc-format.ts, and
normalize all 112 RFCs to it: ~15 Status-line spellings collapse to the
enum, 29 Context openers become Problem, the 39 legacy-format XXX debt
markers are resolved and banned from reappearing, proposal-era sections
in implemented RFCs are rewritten to shipped reality (including the
web/fs/subagent seam RFCs' migration plans and test checklists, closing
the doc-tiers deferred-work item on the web seam), every RFC gains an
Alternatives considered section or the grandfather comment, and the
bilingual pair is re-mirrored and re-recorded.
Move the generated index tables out of README.md into a fully generated
docs/rfc/INDEX.md — gen-rfc-index now writes the whole file, and
verify-rfc-classification checks its freshness and rejects index-shaped
rows in the curated README — which makes room for the format contract to
live in the README front door instead of a separate FORMAT.md.
The decision record, and the first RFC written in the new format, is
docs/rfc/implemented/process/2026-07-05-uniform-rfc-format.md.
Human-annotated gold pairs land as docs/i18n/style-samples.md (bilingual
by construction, excluded from pairing) and outrank prose tone rules.
translation-rules gains a Voice section; shape stays gate-owned so the
writer optimizes for natural Chinese. The skill's translate step becomes
two passes: native-author writing, then clause-level fidelity check.
Terminology rulings: hash -> 哈希 (blob 哈希/提交哈希), HMR and fiber
confirmed as tabled.
Master's docs-overhaul stack (#142-#144) rewrote AGENTS.md into the
slim budget-gated form and repointed the review skill's citations.
Resolutions:
- AGENTS.md: master's rewrite wins; the no-hardcoded-tunables
convention is re-added as one terse bullet in the new style, after
'Explicit > implicit at package seams'. Within the verify-doc-budgets
ceiling, so no displacement or raise needed.
- dsh-code-review SKILL.md: master's repointed citations win; the
hardcoded-tunables reviewer check and the Conventions keyword are
re-applied on top.
- packages/README.md: master replaced the hand-maintained dependency
list (which carried this branch's chars-per-token wording) with a
pointer to the generated module graph — master's side taken whole;
the estimator wording lives on in the compact package READMEs.
