Two cohesion cleanups on the filesystem tool package:
- Fold window.ts + types.ts + formatReadOutput into one cordis-free
read-render.ts. Line windowing, the FileReadOutcome shape, and output
formatting are one concern (the read tool's rendering); splitting them across
three files added no value. read.ts is now just the tool (schema + I/O).
- Drop observe.ts and emit fs/observed with a plain ctx.emit in read/write/edit.
The event is contractually a synchronous, side-effect-only recorder
(file-context's listener is a WeakMap.set), so the per-call try/catch guarded
against a contract violation that cannot happen under the shipped listener —
defensive code for an impossible case. The event contract (dsh-fs JSDoc,
README, RFC) is updated to state the fire-and-forget semantics plainly.
Adapt the four fs packages to master's single-tsconfig build convention
(lib/types outDir + types path + files allowlist), brought in by the merge.
While doing so, drop dsh-tool-fs's /read//write//edit subpath plugins. They
were the only subpath-export package in the tree and forced bespoke tsdown,
tsconfig path, package.json files, and workspace-constraint handling that no
sibling tool package (e.g. dsh-tool-bash) carries, for a focused-deployment
use case no consumer needed. dsh-tool-fs is now a single root plugin that
registers read/write/edit, mirroring dsh-tool-bash; the per-tool registration
helpers stay internal modules the root composes. The file-context event-gate
RFC is amended to record the narrowed scope.
- edit tool: add the read-before-edit requirement to the model-facing prompt
(with the just-created/edited-this-session exception), matching write's
guidance so the model doesn't only learn it via a failed FS_NOT_OBSERVED call.
- fsspec-style-fs-seam RFC: correct the acceptance criteria that still claimed
a ctx.fileContext service and a fileContext inject — the landed design is the
fs/* event gate with the tool injecting fs.
- filesystem-tool-schemas RFC: replace the stale "prior full file state"
edit requirement with version-freshness wording (any windowed read authorizes
a fresh edit; no partial-view flag).
Correct the filesystem-wiring claims flagged by codex: no default/example
config wires the fs tools yet (the demo agents do file ops through bash), so
the docs and RFC no longer assert that "the default product config loads
dsh-file-context". They now state the intended stance — a deployment that
loads the fs tools is expected to also load dsh-file-context for
read-before-write/edit.
Invert the tool↔policy control flow per the file-context event-gate RFC.
dsh-tool-fs becomes the executor — it reads/writes/edits through ctx.fs
directly, owns read windowing, and dispatches fs/write-expectation /
fs/edit-expectation (single-slot waterfalls) plus a contained fs/observed
emit. dsh-file-context drops its ctx.fileContext service and becomes a pure
event-gate plugin (observed-state + read-before-edit + version-guarded
write/edit, decided on those events). The provider's version guard becomes
optional so ctx.fs alone is a complete unconstrained text-storage seam:
removing the policy plugin gracefully loses the policy instead of breaking
the tool at a service-injection boundary.
The per-file 100% coverage gate flagged surface.ts line 46 — the
branch where a surface-eligible event type carries no surfaceOp marker
(isSurfaceEvent returns false). Exercise both guards directly: the
type-only eligibility check, the positive narrowing path, a
non-eligible type, and the markerless-but-eligible branch.
Type-aware ESLint loads every package tsconfig through the project
service and peaks at ~3.4GB RSS. The default V8 old-space ceiling
(~2GB) OOMs it (FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts near heap
limit, exit 134) on both node 24 and 26. Set NODE_OPTIONS with an
8GB ceiling for the Lint step, comfortably above the peak.
Record the freshness token observed AFTER the read (re-stat post-read, falling
back to the routing stat if the file vanished) so the version returned/recorded
matches the bytes returned — a writer racing between the routing stat and the
read can no longer make a follow-up edit spuriously stale. Stream reads when the
backend reports no size, so a size-less backend never buffers a large file
whole. Update the cordis-catalog link map to the current filesystem API symbols
(FileContextExec/FileReadRequest/FileReadOutcome/FsInfo/FsWriteExpectation).
Resolve targetKey by realpathing the nearest EXISTING ancestor and re-appending
the missing suffix, so a not-yet-created file under a symlinked ancestor with
missing intermediate dirs gets the same key before and after creation — keeping
observed-state intact across a write→edit cycle. Make the socket-type probe test
skip (not fail) when a sandbox forbids unix-domain sockets.
Translate a mid-read AbortError from readFile into the seam's structured
FsError('FS_ABORTED') in readWholeText and readForEdit (the streaming/write
paths already did), and make the socket-type probe test reject on a listen
error instead of hanging where unix-domain sockets are unavailable.
Implements the split-the-filesystem-seam RFC. ctx.fs shrinks to a text-storage
provider seam (resolve/stat/readText/streamText/writeText/editText with branded
FsTargetKey/FsVersion and an explicit FsWriteExpectation); the new
dsh-file-context package owns the model-facing policy (read windowing,
observed-state, write/edit freshness) as the concrete ctx.fileContext service.
Authorization is now freshness-based rather than full/partial view: a windowed
read records the file version and authorizes a later edit when the file is
unchanged, removing the dead-end where reading lines 100-150 of a large file
could not edit line 120. editText stays a provider primitive so version guard +
literal match + atomic rewrite remain one critical section, and the stale check
runs before matching so a stale edit reports FS_STALE_VERSION. tool-fs injects
fileContext, never reaching around to ctx.fs (the no-bypass contract).
P1: both merge parents shipped SCHEMA_VERSION=3 for different layouts (surface
columns vs seed_length), so an on-disk 3 was ambiguous and wrongly accepted.
Bump to 4 (merged layout) so the version check rejects both sibling v3s.
P2: a surface-eligible event with no surfaceOp lands in the log but vanishes
from deriveMessages() (surface is the sole derivation path). The typed append
overload enforces the marker only when the type arg is a literal; it collapses
to optional when widened to the union (a caller iterating raw events). Guard at
runtime in both append() and the seed constructor — no backward-compat for
surface-less logs. Shared seed fixtures carry surfaceOp explicitly and the
appendLog helper forwards it verbatim (no synthesized default). Exports
isSurfaceEligibleType. Regression tests for all three, each verified to fail
on the unfixed code.
Gates: typecheck, test (1115), snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build, hygiene green.
Reconciles the session-surface work (surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs provenance as
the sole derivation path) with master's worktree-subagent series (fork-seed
boundary + out-of-process subagent backends).
Semantic reconciliations beyond the textual auto-merge:
- SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION: both sides bumped 2->3. Merged to a single v3 carrying
BOTH column families — master's seed_length on `sessions` and surface's
source_event_seqs/surface_op on `events`. writeRow + both INSERT sites bind
the full set; the schema doc lists all three added columns as the v2->v3 gap.
- agent-loop runStep request: master's `sessionId: session.id` and surface's
per-append surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs coexist (different regions).
- Fork seed + surface: a fork seeds the child from the parent's LIVE events,
which now carry surfaceOp, so the child's surface rebuilds correctly. Verified
end-to-end — the subagent-fork replay recalls the inherited "SAFFRON" codeword
through the seeded prefix.
- Subagent snapshot fixtures (recorded pre-surface) re-enriched via KEYLESS
deterministic replay: only surfaceOp/sourceEventSeqs added onto existing
recorded lines (matched by seq), no recorded value changed. Not re-recorded
against the live API.
Gates: typecheck, test (1112), test:snapshot (14), doc-sync, lint, build,
hygiene all green.
The seed-boundary change made fork-child replay route correctly but shipped
with no recorded fork scenario — the seedLength slice was exercised only by
llm-replay unit tests and a persistence round-trip, never by the full-transcript
snapshot tier. Add two recorded scenarios that drive a real fork child through
it:
- subagent-fork: parent completes a turn, then forks one child (child fixture
carries a non-zero seedLength, the boundary the replay slice consumes).
- subagent-mixed: parent completes a turn, then delegates once via spawn
(seedLength 0) and once via fork (non-zero seedLength) in one transcript —
the first scenario to drive two subagent backends at once, exercising both
branches of the slice.
Both need a completed turn-1 so the fork seed is a non-empty completed-turn
prefix (a turn-1 fork seeds empty = spawn, which would not exercise the slice).
Removing the slice turns both scenarios red (the fork child receives the
parent's recorded chunks), proving the guard bites.
ACP (out-of-process) subagent replay remains a different shape, still tracked
as TODO(acp-subagent-replay).
A fork subagent seeds its child session with a prefix of the parent's log, and
that seed becomes the child's persisted log — so a fork child's .jsonl begins
with the PARENT's events, including the parent's assistant/chunk events. The
snapshot replay harness derived a child's script from its whole log, which would
replay the parent's recorded responses as the child's model calls. Spawn-only
scenarios never hit it, but a fork snapshot would mis-route silently.
Record the seed boundary and skip the inherited prefix at replay:
- SessionHeader gains an optional `seedLength` (how many leading events were
inherited via a seed), threaded through CreateSessionOptions/CreateAgentOptions
meta and stamped by the fork backend (= seeded-prefix length; absent for spawn).
It is EXPLICIT, never inferred from seed.length: a resume seeds the whole stored
log, so the resume path passes the persisted boundary back.
- Both persistence backends round-trip it: JSONL header line, SQLite seed_length
column. The SQLite table change bumps SCHEMA_VERSION 2->3; per the pre-release
stance the backend rejects an older user_version on open with NO migration.
- llm-replay's parseSessionHeader reads seedLength and loadSessionScripts derives
a child script from events AFTER the boundary. seedLength is 0 for spawn, so
spawn replay is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Closes the routing-correctness gap the per-session snapshot replay RFC under-
stated; a recorded fork scenario remains a future addition but now derives
correctly. RFC: docs/rfc/implemented/testing/2026-06-22-fork-child-replay-seed-boundary.md.
Regression coverage: a fork child fixture whose seeded prefix carries a parent
chunk (derived script must exclude it, proven red without the slice); a seedLength
persistence round-trip through the shared coordinator contract (both backends);
the fork backend stamping it; resume preserving it from the persisted header.
