New top-level packages/cordis/ group with the self-referential toolset: cordis_inspect (services / plugin tree / tools / dynamic mounts / api / events, the api section intersecting the generated catalog with the live service store), cordis_mount (model-written code evaluated in a node:vm sandbox, mounted under one cordis-dynamic group fiber as dyn-<n>), cordis_unmount (awaited disposal to quiescence). Boundary mechanisms: dual-realm instanceof, JSON realm normalization of dynamic tool results, marker-guarded registration, SchemaSpec teaching errors, parse failures surfaced with the offending line + caret and a line-scoped TypeScript hint, and the unmount-first recipe on tool-name collisions. Config: vmTimeoutMs (schemastery, default 5000). Design record: docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-08-self-referential-cordis-toolset.md. The tool-catalog boot manifest, its regenerated output, and the pinned tool-name list land here rather than with the other repo registration: the completeness guard globs packages/*/tool-* and fails the generator (and the core/tools spec) the moment the package directory exists.
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-cordis
The self-referential cordis toolset: three model-facing tools over the live runtime the agent runs inside. Design home — sandbox semantics, mount lifecycle, cross-mount composition, the generated API catalog, standing decisions: the toolset RFC.
What it does
cordis_inspect— read-only report over the runtime: services, the plugin fiber tree (ASCII), registered tools, the dynamic-mount table, and the catalog-backedapi/eventsreferences.cordis_mount— evaluates model-written JavaScript (the body of an async function) in anode:vmsandbox; the code mustreturna cordis plugin, which is mounted under thecordis-dynamicgroup fiber and tracked asdyn-<n>.cordis_unmount— disposes one mount by id, returning only after quiescence.
Exact model-facing schemas: the generated tool catalog.
Trust stance
The sandbox isolates the global context only — it is not a security boundary. No Node API is provided: require, the timers, and fetch are callable traps that throw a redirect to the cordis alternative (ctx.fs / ctx.web / ctx.bash / inject: ['timer'] + ctx.setTimeout); process and Buffer are undefined; globalThis writes stay inside. The ctx a mounted plugin's apply receives is the real, fully privileged runtime handle; load this plugin as deliberately as you would grant a bash tool.

The generated API catalog
src/api-catalog.ts is generated by scripts/gen-cordis-api.ts from the same AST walk as docs/cordis-catalog and freshness-gated by pnpm run verify-cordis-api (in doc-sync) — never edit it by hand. cordis_inspect intersects it with the live service store at call time.
Rendering
All three tools render generic cards (read / execute / delete); cordis_mount carries the mount code as rawInput. Presenters are pure functions of the args; results keep the default text rendering.
Export shape
Namespace plugin: named exports name / inject / Config / apply, no default export (docs/postmortem/0001).
