Squashes feat/tui-cache-hit-rate and feat/tui-verbose-status: the footer
shows cache hit rate and the running status line reports turn phase with
elapsed timing.
Load a per-directory local overlay in addition to the base instruction
file, matching the Claude Code AGENTS.local.md / CLAUDE.local.md
convention for git-ignored personal guidance.
- New config `localInstructionFileCandidates`, default
`['AGENTS.local.md', 'CLAUDE.local.md']`; empty disables the overlay.
The default lives in the plugin Config schema, so every front door
(TUI/ACP/headless) reads .local. files consistently.
- Per project directory the plugin loads the first-existing base
candidate, then additively the first-existing local candidate,
rendered after the base so it takes precedence within the byte budget.
- Base and local tiers get distinct scope keys via a NUL sentinel
(scopeKey/decodeScopeKey) so they never collide in the baseline map,
pending window, or version cache.
- The fixed user-global $DSH_HOME/AGENTS.md stays base-only.
Docs: README (config, lifecycle, Known Limitations), regenerated
config-catalog, and a new bilingual Agent Note cross-linked to the
owning workspace-context note. 100% per-file coverage retained.
Squashes three linearized steps (feat/tui-startup, feat/banner-reveal,
feat/remove-banner): the banner experiment converged on removing the
startup banner entirely; later commits restore it borderless and add the
brand gradient.
Squash of the linearized fix/tui-color-scheme-v2 merge and the follow-up
catalog regeneration. Renders error cause chains at every diagnostic seam
(origin/fetch-failed-diagnostics) and adds color scheme detection with a
light-terminal palette.
Delete packages/ui/stdio and examples/repl-agent; rename stdio-demo to
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tui-demo (TUI-only, refuses pipes before Loader boot).
tui-agent owns the coding composition inline; echo-agent and the CI demo
smoke move to the one-shot cli-demo bin, which gains -p/--prompt. The
UI-independent with-key e2es move verbatim to tui-agent. SDK wizard's
'stdio' interface becomes 'tui'. PTY testing stays confined to TUI
surfaces; all other subprocess tests ride pipes.

SubagentStartRequest.parent, its core-data type-equiv mirror, and the
ACP backend Agent Note still said the out-of-process backend ignores
request.parent — no longer true: with cwd unconfigured it reads exactly
the session header's cwd, and a parent session without one now rejects
at start. State the one-field read at each owning contract, record the
workspace-resolution decision in the Agent Note, and align the README's
accessibility wording with the search-permission guard.
The consolidated resolver scopes the anonymous id to $DSH_HOME rather
than the machine. Update the module contract, README, and Agent Note to
say per-harness-home explicitly instead of over-claiming a machine-global
identity, and record why DSH_HOME scoping is the intended single-root
meaning rather than a regression.
