The browse interaction also presents a dialog (the in-app modal), so 'dialog' failed to discriminate the two capability kinds; 'native' names where the chooser runs. Package directory-picker-dialog -> directory-picker-native, kind 'dialog' -> 'native', with every seam/gateway/client/doc reference updated and the seam Agent Note's naming rationale rewritten to match.

English | 中文
The native-OS-chooser backend of the directory-picker seam: NativeDirectoryPicker registers ctx.directoryPicker with the native capability, whose pick(signal) opens one native chooser per call and resolves the chosen absolute path (null on cancel). Platform tools run without a shell: osascript on macOS, an STA PowerShell FolderBrowserDialog on Windows, and Zenity with a KDialog fallback on Linux; the caller's abort terminates the native process. Only viable when the operator sits at the host's display — remote deployments compose -browse instead. The command boundary (DirectoryPickerRunner) and platform facts are injectable for deterministic tests.
Model Experience
None, as the backend serves the GUI host's directory selection; nothing here reaches a model request.
KV Cache effect
None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- Linux requires desktop tooling — with neither Zenity nor KDialog installed,
pickrejects with an actionable error; it does not fall back to a typed-path prompt (the browse backend is that fallback at the composition level).
