Two pairs needed their confirmed-consistent state refreshed: the
intent-named note's supersession clause (zh link normalized to the shared
`.md` target, since the pairing contract requires identical link targets)
and the report README's acceptance-semantics rewrite (both sides edited).
Re-record both pairs so the translation-pairing gate passes.
The 2026-07-27 intent-named operations note still declared that a
continuable provider requires `flush()` to resolve `true` at its final
result boundary and maps `false`/rejection to `DURABILITY_FAILED`. The
activation-based record (2026-07-28-continuable-subagent-conversations)
superseded that contract: the manager awaits the final flush as a
best-effort barrier and deliberately ignores the boolean, because listener
participation cannot identify a persistence backend.
Active notes are the current source of truth — sync both sides of the
bilingual pair by marking the old clause superseded with a link to the
record that replaced it.
- listChildren() checks its cancellation signal before starting the corpus
trace and immediately after it resolves, so a pre-aborted or trace-time
abort fails CANCELLED instead of returning a successful empty result.
- Corrected the persistence-repair claims: session query resolves persisted
candidates through the non-mutating inspect() read, so listing is
storage-read-only and a torn child tail is surfaced (shorter valid prefix)
rather than repaired; the Agent Note, README, and JSDoc now state that,
and the zh pair is re-recorded.
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.
- Make host-user authority unforgeable. `{ kind: 'user' }` was a bare
discriminant, so any plugin holding `ctx.subagents` — including
model-generated cordis_mount code, which the advanced ACP composition ships
alongside continuable subagents — could construct it and skip the
direct-parent check for any known child id. It now carries an opaque grant
that only SubagentService.userAuthority() mints, which composition hands to
trusted host adapters; a model-facing tool uses parent authority from its own
execution context.
- Reconcile a delivery discarded inside its own admission window. An enqueue
listener that cancels fires the discard before followup() returns, so the
discard listener could not clear an id it had not seen; submit() retained it
and residency stayed `running` until an explicit drain.
- Recheck the caller signal after materialization. An abort landing between
publication and inbox acceptance still submitted the prompt and returned both
ids; it now rolls the child back.
- Stop promising the model transcript access that no shipped continuable config
mounts. The tools now state only that a background child does not report back.
- Restate the implemented note as shipped state rather than a proposal, so it
works as current authority.
Moves the RFC to implemented/, restates it as current-state prose under the
implemented note format, and records what the Task-backed continuable-subagents
note and the two subagent-service simplification notes retain versus what this
record replaces.
Replace the Task-backed continuation manager with one durable Session plus at
most one process-local Activation — a residency epoch for a reconstructed child
Agent, not a request, result, cancellation, or Task boundary. The manager owns
activation admission, authority, the live ownership graph, cold resume, and
child-first disposal; the Agent inbox is the only turn FIFO.
- startContinuable() is async and returns { childId, messageId } at inbox
acceptance; followup() takes a SubagentAuthority and returns AgentMessageId.
- SubagentProvider.resume?(), SubagentProviderResumeRequest, SubagentRun.steer?(),
SubagentProviderStartRequest and SubagentContinuation are deleted;
prepareContinuable?() is the continuable-creation capability.
- Cold resume calls ctx.agents.resume() from the manager through a private
activation-owner scope, never dispatching through a provider.
- Extract shared child composition, descriptor seeding, depth accounting, and
one-shot run settlement so the manager and one-shot driver keep one home
per fact.
Tests and docs follow in subsequent commits.
