Resolve six review findings on the unified-send change: - quiet (wakeup:false) queued items no longer un-park the driver; the inbox distinguishes hasWakingQueued (drives the loop, idle/quiescence) from hasQueued (anything to dequeue), so a lone quiet item parks at idle and rides the next waking send. whenIdle/cancel settle off the waking signal, so cancelling a parked quiet item no longer hangs whenIdle. - SendOptions.meta on queued/steering sends now reaches the durable user/message and steering/message (was dropped except on injection). - a terminal agent/turn-stop that drops pending steering emits agent/inbox/discard so the enqueue-dequeue-or-discard ledger balances. - the loop-authored continuation reason is snapshotted and frozen like a public send. - gen-cordis-api collects exported classes (body-stripped) so the now- abstract-class Agent and its transitive shapes reappear in the API catalog. Adds regression tests for each and re-records the affected snapshot.
core/ — product API spine
The session log, system-prompt assembly, tool registry, agent vocabulary, and concrete loop that form the harness's default control spine. These are product packages — the stable surface plugins and consumers build against.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
scope/ |
Scoped-context registration primitive (scope tags, scope-filtered dispatch) | (library — no ctx key) |
session/ |
Event-sourced session log + in-memory store | ctx.sessions |
system-prompt/ |
Prompt-section + tool-schema assembly registry | ctx.systemPrompt |
tools/ |
Scoped tool registry + pre-policy, guards, around-dispatch, post-policy, and final-result observation | ctx.tools |
agent/ |
Agent interface, live registry, process-local initiator scope, agent/* event vocabulary |
ctx.agents |
agent-loop/ |
Concrete plugin implementing the public Agent contract and owning the loop driver |
ctx.agentLoop |
scope/ is the one non-service package here: a dependency-free library (createScope/scopeOf/scopeTarget) the registries and the loop build per-agent scoping on — it sits below session/ and system-prompt/ in the module graph precisely so they can consume it without a cycle.
agent-loop is the one concrete implementation of the agent seam and lives here because it is the harness's default product loop. It runs each driver inside ctx.agents.withInitiator(). Extension plugins depend on agent, including when they need the initiating Agent, and never on agent-loop directly, so the loop stays swappable.
The default composition that wires this spine into a runnable agent lives in examples/agent-spine-demo: one bundle plugin that loads the control spine plus selected default capabilities (timer + llm + sessions + fallback session titles + system-prompt + tools + agents + invariants + the local skill family + tool-bash + workspace-context + agent-loop) and forwards agent-loop's agents list as its own config. It sits in examples/ — ready-to-run demo/reference bundles — not in core/: core/ ships the swappable spine pieces, while a demo bundle picks one concrete composition of them and adds a front door.
