All five findings were real:
- The terminal lifecycle edge derived its stop reason from teardown success, so a
child that errored, hit its token ceiling, or was cancelled reported as
completed once its checkpoint and disposal succeeded. It now reads the child's
own last message turn/end, which is authoritative.
- Live delivery never rechecked the caller signal after authorization yielded, so
an abort that won before acceptance still enqueued the message and returned an
id. Admission now re-checks at the boundary that owns the decision.
- Drain flushed before cancelling, letting a running turn keep appending events
the checkpoint could not cover and letting model work continue through a slow
flush. It now cancels to quiescence first.
- subagent/end fired after AgentHandle.dispose() unregistered the child, so the
hooks bridge could not resolve it for the child's cwd and scope. The edge now
publishes while the child is still registered.
- activationState() read Agent.status alone, which stays idle between an accepted
waking send and the microtask that admits it, so a synchronous inbox observer
could see settled with a queued turn. Residency now also counts messages this
manager admitted but has not seen leave the inbox.
Adds the new continuable types to the cordis-catalog type-link map and
regenerates the cordis api/service/event catalogs, tool catalog, config
catalog, and doc graphs.
- Wire the control service and send_message tool into every shipped
composition with a resumable provider and background enabled
(headless-agent, tui-agent, and the SDK helper's subagent feature
base resources); jsonrpc-agent disables background and is unchanged.
- Resolve the send_message availability check in the CALLER's tool
scope so a restriction that removes the follow-up tool from one
agent also blocks that agent's continuable start.
- Control-service disposal now cancels live activations and awaits
producer settlement instead of stranding them: TaskService keeps
producer Tasks across a reload, so the disposing service aborts each
activation-owned controller, resolves its terminal gate (the
effect-scoped onTaskDone listener is already gone), and awaits done.
A new test kills a mid-start activation through HMR disposal.
Implement the continuable background subagents RFC: a durable child
session with a series of Task-backed activations, each disposing its
run before the Task settles.
- dsh-subagent: rename SubagentRun.sendMessage to strict steer, drop
run-level resume, add SubagentProvider.resume dispatch via
SubagentService.resume, the continuation start field, and the
versioned model-hidden subagent/descriptor session event.
- dsh-subagent-inprocess/-spawn/-fork: publish the control-allocated
child id, append the descriptor inside the initial turn, implement
cold resume from the child's own transcript under the live parent
scope, and strict running-only steer.
- dsh-subagent-control (new): SubagentControlService owning stable
child ids, descriptor snapshot/fold/authorization, Task-backed
activation with settle-then-dispose ordering, the process-local
active-run association, and steer-or-resume sendMessage routing.
- dsh-tool-subagent: background route branches on the provider's
resume capability (continuable via the control service; one-shot
task for ACP), returning both child and task ids.
- dsh-tool-subagent-control (new): the globally named send_message
tool rendering steered/started routes.
Keyless coverage spans Task ownership and disposal ordering, running
delivery, cold follow-up, descriptor rejection and rollback, known-id
reconstruction, kill during lookup, admission races, and a new
subagent-continuable ACP snapshot scenario.
Resolve the agent-loop import conflict by retaining both durable request context and runtime policy context. Refresh the combined session fixtures and regenerate documentation catalogs. Mark PDF artifacts as binary so staged whitespace checks do not parse PDF bytes as text.
