# RFC: Prune the unimplemented subagent seam vocabulary
Status: rejected — the deferred capability vocabulary (`outputSchema`/`structured`, `toolFilter`, `sendMessage`/`resume`) is intentionally reserved surface: the seam advertises the full intended contract ahead of its implementations by design, so providers and consumers grow into a stable shape rather than re-negotiating it per capability. The consumer-evidence analysis below stands as the record of what is currently unimplemented.
Status: rejected — the deferred capability vocabulary (`outputSchema`/`structured`, `toolFilter`, `sendMessage`/`resume`) is intentionally reserved surface: the seam advertises the full intended contract ahead of its implementations by design, so providers and consumers grow into a stable shape rather than re-negotiating it per capability. The consumer-evidence analysis below records the decision-time state.
## Problem
The [subagent seam](../../implemented/feature/2026-06-21-subagent-capability-seam.md) shipped a two-tier capability design: start-time capability flags checked by the service, and optional runtime methods on `SubagentRun`. Three start-time features and both optional runtime methods have zero implementations and zero callers:
- **`outputSchema`/`structured` and `toolFilter`** (`SubagentCapabilities`, `SubagentStartRequest`, `SubagentResult` in `packages/subagent/subagent/src/types.ts`): every real provider declares `outputSchema: false, toolFilter: false` (`packages/subagent/subagent-spawn/src/index.ts`, `packages/subagent/subagent-fork/src/index.ts`, `packages/subagent/subagent-acp/src/index.ts`); the sole production `ctx.subagents.start` caller (`packages/subagent/tool-subagent/src/index.ts`) builds `{ prompt, parent, signal?, agentOptions? }` and structurally cannot set either; `structured` is produced only by the test mock (`packages/support/subagent-mock`) for its own spec. The service's capability check carries two assert rows whose only exercisers are the rejection tests.
- **`outputSchema`/`structured` and `toolFilter`** (`SubagentCapabilities`, `SubagentStartRequest`, `SubagentResult` in `packages/subagent/subagent/src/types.ts`): at the decision point, every real provider declared `outputSchema: false, toolFilter: false` (`packages/subagent/subagent-spawn/src/index.ts`, `packages/subagent/subagent-fork/src/index.ts`, `packages/subagent/subagent-acp/src/index.ts`); the sole production `ctx.subagents.start` caller (`packages/subagent/tool-subagent/src/index.ts`) built `{ prompt, parent, signal?, agentOptions? }` and structurally could not set either; `structured` appeared only in the scripted test fixture. The service's capability check carried two assert rows whose only exercisers were the rejection tests.
- **`SubagentRun.sendMessage` / `SubagentRun.resume`** (same file): implemented by NO provider — not even the mock; the spawn spec asserts their *absence*.
The only reason `dsh-subagent` depends on `dsh-tools` at all is `outputSchema`'s `SchemaSpec` type. Three subsequent subagent workstreams (per-session snapshot replay, the fork seed boundary, the ACP backend) landed around this surface without growing a single consumer.
## Proposal
Remove `outputSchema`/`structured`, `toolFilter`, `sendMessage`, and `resume` from the seam; shrink `SubagentCapabilities` to `{ depthLimit }`; drop the two capability-assert rows, the all-false flags on the three providers, the mock's structured branch and its `capabilities`/`structured` config knobs, and the tests that exist to pin the removed surface (the two rejection rows, the spawn absence test, the mock structured specs). Drop the `dsh-tools` peer/dev dependency from `packages/subagent/subagent/package.json`. Update the [subagent.md](../../../core-data-structures/subagent.md) pastes and the type-equiv manifest, and the README rows in `packages/subagent/subagent`, `packages/subagent/subagent-spawn`, `packages/subagent/subagent-fork`, and `packages/support/subagent-mock`. The implementing PR amends the seam RFC's capability catalog per [implemented/AGENTS.md](../../implemented/AGENTS.md).

Update the [subagent.md](../../../core-data-structures/subagent.md) pastes and the type-equiv manifest, plus the affected provider READMEs. The implementing PR amends the seam RFC's capability catalog per [implemented/AGENTS.md](../../implemented/AGENTS.md).
**Keep** `depthLimit`/`maxDepth` and capability checks. The in-process backend enforces the limit, although the shipping tool does not yet set it. Recursion is a known seam risk, so the appropriate follow-up is to supply a tool default rather than delete working enforcement.
