Hypatia May 9cc8dc371e Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into session-surface
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.

dsh-invariants

Dev-mode event-contract invariants and session-log freeze. A pure-listener plugin (everything is a plugin) that asserts the harness event contract at runtime and, optionally, freezes logged session-event data so any code that mutates history throws instead of corrupting silently.

Off in production. Enable it in tests and the demos, where a contract violation should fail loudly. It costs nothing when not registered, and doubles as executable documentation of the event taxonomy — the assertions are the contract.

Plugin

A functional plugin — register the module namespace (this is what loading by name in cordis.yml does):

import type { Context } from 'cordis'
import * as Invariants from '@deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants'

declare const ctx: Context

await ctx.plugin(Invariants)                     // freeze on (default)
await ctx.plugin(Invariants, { freeze: false })  // assert contract, don't freeze

inject: ['sessions'] — it reads ctx.sessions.list() at apply time to rebuild trace state for sessions that already exist (so a hot reload mid-turn doesn't falsely reject the next event). It listens on session/created, session/event, and agent/status.

Config

Key Default Meaning
freeze true Deep-freeze each logged event's data so mutating a logged event throws. Set false to assert the contract without freezing.

Invariants asserted

Session log (per session):

  • seq strictly increases — the spine of replay equivalence.
  • turns pair and nest — turn/start opens a turn, turn/end closes the matching one; no overlapping turns.
  • steps nest in turns — step/start opens a step in the open turn; step/end closes the matching step.
  • chunks belong to an open step — step/start precedes its assistant/chunks.
  • a tool/result needs a prior tool/call — but NOT the converse: a tool/call may have no result (a thrown tools/execute waterfall ends the step with no tool/result, which is legal).

Agent status (per agent):

  • legal transitions only — idle↔running and (idle|running)→disposed. A no-op transition (setStatus dedups, so it never fires) and leaving the terminal disposed state are violations.

On any violation it throws InvariantError (code: 'INVARIANT').

Why runtime, not deep-readonly types

A DeepReadonly<SessionEvent> is high type-noise across every log consumer, and a plugin can cast straight through it. A dev-mode freeze plus these assertions catch real corruption at zero production cost and zero type noise. The always-on half of that defense — cloning derived messages so request/adapter mutation can't reach back into the log — lives in dsh-session's deriveMessages. This package is the dev-mode tripwire. See dev-mode invariants.

Seeded sessions

A seeded/forked session arrives with events already in its log (the Session constructor copies the seed without emitting session/event). On session/created the plugin replays the existing log through the checker and freezes those entries, so seeded history is held to the same contract.
