SessionSummary (updatedAt/title/firstPrompt) and SessionPersistence.update() were dead state: zero production callers of update(), no production reader of updatedAt/firstPrompt, and ACP's title comes from a tool-call presenter, not storage. The live Session.header was already typed SessionHeader, so the summary only ever existed in the persistence layer, written and read by nothing but its own contract test. Delete it entirely (no SessionMeta alias — SessionMeta collapses to SessionHeader everywhere). This removes the JSONL .summary.json sidecar machinery, the SQLite title/first_prompt/updated_at columns and per-append updated_at bump, and the update() method from the abstract service and both backends. SQLite SCHEMA_VERSION goes 1->2 and openDatabase now rejects any non-current user_version (older or newer) — no migration, unreleased software. Net -400 lines, and it erases the JSONL-sidecar-vs-SQLite-column durability divergence that the upcoming write coordinator would otherwise have to model. Records the decision in docs/rfc/implemented/2026-06-19-drop-mutable-session-summary.md and migrates the 2026-06-14 session-persistence RFC's facts to current truth. Adds a standalone AGENTS.md section "Tests document behavior, not golden truth" (a passing test pins current behavior, not necessarily correct behavior) with the summary-drop as its worked example, and reinforces the no-migration pre-release stance.

# @deepseek-ai/dsh-session-persistence-jsonl
|
|
|
|
The JSONL durable session-persistence backend — a concrete `SessionPersistence` (the `dsh-session-persistence` seam). One append-only `.jsonl` event log per session.
|
|
|
|
## On-disk layout
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<root>/
|
|
cwd-<sha256(cwd)[:12]>/ # per-project bucket (or _no-cwd/ when no cwd)
|
|
<encoded-id>.jsonl # header line + one SessionEvent per line (verbatim)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- The first `.jsonl` line is the immutable `SessionHeader` tagged `{ type: 'session', version, id, cwd?, createdAt, parentSession? }`; every subsequent line is one `SessionEvent` JSON, **verbatim including `assistant/chunk`** so `seq` stays contiguous (`events[i].seq === i`).
|
|
- Session ids are unvalidated branded strings, so they are percent-encoded to a single safe path segment before use (no traversal, no collision).
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
| Key | Type | Notes |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `root` | `string` (required) | Root directory for all session files. **No default** — a `process.cwd()` default would scatter files as the process's cwd changes (bash calls, subprocesses). |
|
|
|
|
## Durability and crash semantics
|
|
|
|
- **Lazy materialization.** `create(meta)` writes nothing; the `.jsonl` (header + first batch) is written atomically (temp-write + `fsync` + rename) on the first `append`. A created-but-never-appended session leaves nothing on disk and is absent from `has`/`list`.
|
|
- **Append-only.** Committed events (at or below a flushed `turn/end`) are never rewritten. Subsequent appends are line appends at EOF + `fsync`.
|
|
- **Crash recovery — close, don't truncate.** A crash can leave a log whose final turn never closed (real events after the last `turn/end`). `load` PRESERVES those events (a turn can be huge — they are real work) and closes the orphaned turn by durably appending synthetic boundary events: an error `tool/result` for every `tool-call` the crash left unanswered (the loop logs the assistant message before running the tools, so a mid-tool crash leaves dangling calls — and `deriveMessages()` would replay an assistant tool-call with no result, which providers reject), then a `step/end` if a step was open, then `turn/end {kind:'interrupted'}`, returning a balanced log. Only a never-fully-written **torn tail fragment** (a final line with no newline / unparseable) is `ftruncate`d away before the closers are written. See [session persistence](../../docs/rfc/implemented/2026-06-14-session-persistence.md).
|
|
- **Contiguous-seq.** `load` rejects a mid-log parse error or `seq` gap (unloadable); `append` rejects a batch whose first `seq` does not continue the stored log, and rejects non-JSON-serializable `event.data` naming the offending event type.
|
|
- **Format version.** Only v1 is supported; `load` rejects an unknown version. A future format change requires a version bump + migration.
|

## Write path
|
|
|
|
The plugin generalizes the example `session-jsonl.ts`: it subscribes to `session/created` (capture the header; persist a fork's seed once), `session/event` (snapshot each event when buffering — the live `session.events` object is mutable), and `session/flush`/dispose (drain the write-behind buffer through `append`). A per-session write cursor means a resumed session never re-appends already-stored events. Existing live sessions are seeded on plugin apply (HMR does not replay `session/created`). All backend operations for one session are serialized, and disposal awaits quiescence (every init + final drain) before returning, so no write lands after teardown.
