# RFC: Drop the `image` content block until a path can honor it
|
||||
|
||||
Status: implemented (proposed and accepted 2026-07-04)
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
`ImageBlock` (`packages/llm/llm/src/types.ts`) had no production producer, and every consumer on every path DROPPED it: the deepseek adapter's serializer skipped image blocks (a documented MVP limitation), the pi-ai converter skipped them as unrepresentable, the ACP codec neither advertises image prompt capability nor forwarded image blocks outbound and REJECTS image prompt content inbound, and the compaction estimator charged a flat token constant and rendered `[image]`. An `ImageBlock` constructed then would silently vanish from the wire — the vocabulary advertised a capability no path honored, which is the silent-data-loss shape AGENTS.md's defensive patterns warn against. The only constructors anywhere were tests pinning the skip/drop/estimate branches.
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision
|
||||
|
||||
Remove `ImageBlock`, its `ContentBlockMap` entry (and its `cache?: CacheHint` field with it), the explicit `image` estimate/placeholder arms in compact-basic, and the image-naming comments in the deepseek serializer's, pi-ai converter's, and ACP codec's default arms — those default arms absorb the case the way they absorb any unknown block type. Updated in the same change: the vocabulary line in [architecture.md](../../../architecture.md), the block list in `packages/llm/llm/README.md`, the deepseek README's image-skip row, the pi-ai README's images-not-representable row, the compact-basic README's image-estimation and `[image]`-placeholder rows, the pastes in [core.md](../../../core-data-structures/core.md) and [llm-streaming.md](../../../core-data-structures/llm-streaming.md), and the [content-block vocabulary RFC](../architecture/2026-06-11-content-block-vocabulary.md)'s block list and multimodal-home consequence per [implemented/AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md); the tests that constructed image blocks to exercise the removed branches were dropped (the estimate pin) or retargeted onto the merge-extensible default arms (plugin-added block types). The ACP codec's inbound rejection of image PROMPT content is unaffected — that guard is about protocol content a client can send regardless of our vocabulary, and it stays.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why not keep it?
|
||||
|
||||
This was the most contested cut in the batch. Multimodal input (screenshots) is a plausible near-term coding-agent feature, and the [content-block vocabulary RFC](../architecture/2026-06-11-content-block-vocabulary.md) reserved the slot deliberately. Two responses. First, `ContentBlockMap` is merge-extensible by design: a real multimodal feature reintroduces `image` in core in the same coordinated change that maps it in the adapters, advertises and renders it in ACP, and prices it in compaction — the producer and its consumers arrive together, which is how the map is meant to grow. Second, the middle option — keep the type but make adapters throw UNSUPPORTED instead of silently dropping — converts this into exactly the shape the sibling request-knobs proposal (`2026-07-04-drop-inert-request-knobs`) argues against: surface whose only implementation is rejection. Absence (a compile error at the would-be producer) is strictly clearer than either silent loss or universal throw.
|
||||
|
||||
The recorded fallback, had review landed on keeping the slot: keep `ImageBlock` but replace every silent skip with a loud rejection, and document that policy in the vocabulary — the silent drop was the one state with no defender. Review landed on removal; the fallback stands as the documented alternative should the slot ever return ahead of a full feature.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance criteria
|
||||
|
||||
- No `ImageBlock` / harness `type: 'image'` block construction outside this RFC; the codec's inbound ACP-image rejection still passes its tests.
|
||||
- Adapter/codec/compaction switches handle the case through their unknown-block default arms (pinned by the plugin-added-block tests).
|
||||
- Doc pastes, the manifest, and the architecture vocabulary list updated; `pnpm run doc-sync` green.
|
||||
|
||||
## Risks
|
||||
|
||||
Re-adding a core vocabulary type later touches several packages at once — but that coordinated change is the shape a real multimodal feature needs anyway (adapter mapping, ACP advertisement, compaction pricing), and none of it existed to preserve.

# RFC: Drop the unconsumed web observation surface — the `providers-change` event and the status methods
|
||||
|
||||
Status: implemented (proposed and accepted 2026-07-04)
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
`WebService` exposes an observation surface no production code observes:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`web/providers-change`** (`packages/web/web/src/index.ts`) is declared and emitted on every provider registration and disposal, and each registration effect's rollback yield is ordered BEFORE the emit solely so a throwing change listener unwinds the registration. No listener exists outside the package's own two unit tests (one of which exists to pin that rollback ordering).
|
||||
- **`searchStatus()` / `fetchStatus()` and the `WebCapabilityStatus` union** (same package) have zero production callers: `dsh-tool-web` executes directly through `ctx.web.search()`/`fetch()` and surfaces unavailability as the structured `WebError` codes the seam throws at execution time (`packages/web/tool-web/src/search.ts`, `packages/web/tool-web/src/fetch.ts`); the only status callers are the web packages' own tests. The prose in `packages/web/tool-web/README.md` and [architecture.md](../../../architecture.md) claims the tool "reads only the aggregated `searchStatus()`/`fetchStatus()`" — drift that survives only because nothing checks prose against call sites.
|
||||
|
||||
The seam's own design starves both surfaces of consumers: tool registration follows product ENABLEMENT, not provider availability (`packages/web/tool-web/src/index.ts`), and provider selection resolves at execution time, never cached — so there is no cache to invalidate, no registration set to recompute, and no caller that needs an availability probe distinct from executing and routing the structured error. HMR cleanup is carried by the effect disposers themselves.
|
||||
|
||||
This mirrors [drop the unconsumed `llm/adapter-change` event](../../implemented/simplification/2026-06-20-drop-unconsumed-llm-adapter-change-event.md), which removed the same notification shape, the same rollback-before-emit machinery, and the same listener-throw test from `LlmService`. That RFC's keep/cut criterion — keep `tools/change` for its plausible user-facing tool-list consumer, cut the boot-time backend-registry signal — puts a web-provider registry squarely on the cut side; the status methods are the same judgment applied to a pull surface instead of a push one.
|
||||
|
||||
## Proposal
|
||||
|
||||
Delete the event declaration, both emits, and the rollback-before-emit ordering (the plain `ctx.effect` disposer keeps HMR cleanup). Delete `searchStatus()`/`fetchStatus()`/`WebCapabilityStatus` — the provider-private `status()` stays, since it feeds execution-time selection. Delete the listener-throw rollback test that exists solely for the removed event, and rewrite the emission assertions and every status-based assertion onto the behavior a real caller observes (a successful `search()`/`fetch()`, or the structured `WebError` codes for unavailable/ambiguous/misconfigured provider sets). Run `pnpm run gen-cordis-catalog`; update `packages/web/web/README.md`, `packages/web/tool-web/README.md` (the drifted reads-status sentence), [web.md](../../../core-data-structures/web.md), and the web paragraph in [architecture.md](../../../architecture.md). Amend the [web capability seam RFC](../../implemented/architecture/2026-06-24-web-capability-seam.md)'s facts (it specified the event and the status aggregation) per [implemented/AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Why not keep it?
|
||||
|
||||
The web seam RFC specified both deliberately — the event as a minimal HMR-visibility signal, the status methods as the tool's aggregated diagnostics — and a future provider-status panel is imaginable. But the same RFC's other choices starved them: derived-on-call selection and enablement-based registration leave no consumer that CAN need either, the shipped tool demonstrates the real pattern (execute and route the structured error), and the drifted README sentence shows the promised consumer never materialized. Per AGENTS.md "RFCs are proposals, not golden truth", these are the parts of that proposal the code has since shown to over-reach; a future observer reintroduces the smallest signal or query it actually consumes, shaped by that consumer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance criteria
|
||||
|
||||
- No `providers-change`, `searchStatus`, `fetchStatus`, or `WebCapabilityStatus` spelling outside RFC history; the catalog is regenerated and fresh (`verify-cordis-catalog` green).
|
||||
- Registration/disposal HMR-safety tests prove cleanup through execution behavior rather than the removed surfaces.
|
||||
- `packages/web/tool-web/README.md` and the architecture paragraph describe the execution-time error-routing contract the tool actually has.
|
||||
|
||||
## Risks
|
||||
|
||||
A future provider-picker UI or diagnostics panel wants change notifications or a status query — it re-adds the smallest surface it consumes; the identical judgment, and its reversal condition, is already recorded on the llm precedent.

# RFC: Fold the stdio UI helper into the stdio app
|
||||
|
||||
Status: implemented
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
The readline UI was a whole package (`@deepseek-ai/dsh-ui-stdio` under `packages/support/`) whose only runtime importer was the app package `@deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent`. The examples reach the readline UI by loading the app, never by composing the helper themselves; every other repo reference was mechanical or descriptive surface that existed BECAUSE the package boundary existed — manifest and tsconfig entries, generated module-graph rows, dependency-graph and README rows, and doc comments naming the package. The ui group README recorded the support placement rationale ("exists chiefly for the examples and the coverage gate — `ui/` is reserved for surfaces shipped as product"), which left a standing tension: a shipped product app depending on a support package documented as NOT product surface.
|
||||
|
||||
The boundary bought package metadata, workspace and tsconfig references, module-graph rows, README entries, and publint surface for a helper that is not independently swappable: the stdio app's front-door cluster always includes the readline UI, and nothing else can meaningfully consume it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Decision
|
||||
|
||||
The helper lives inside `@deepseek-ai/dsh-stdio-agent` as the in-package `stdio-chat` module (`packages/ui/stdio-agent/src/stdio-chat.ts`): `createStdioChat`, its `StdioRuntime` test seam, and its unit tests (`packages/ui/stdio-agent/tests/stdio-chat.spec.ts`, `readline.spec.ts`) moved with it, so EOF handling, rendering, disposal, and piped-vs-TTY behavior stay unit-covered under the per-file coverage gate without hijacking process globals. The module keeps the named `name`/`inject`/`Config`/`apply` export shape — the contract the app's `ctx.plugin(uiStdio, …)` mount consumes — and the keyless Loader-path smokes in `examples/echo-agent` and `examples/coding-agent` keep proving the composed tree boots through the real Loader (the app's export SHAPE is pinned by the stdio-agent unit suite's explicit `unwrapExports` assertion, since a bundle without `inject` would boot past a stray default rather than crash).
|
||||
|
||||
The `packages/support/ui-stdio` package is gone: manifest, tsconfig references, module-graph rows, and README rows deleted; the doc comments that named the package (the example e2e module docs, `packages/README.md`, the support and todo READMEs, [the ui group README](../../../../packages/ui/README.md)) describe the in-package module.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why not promote it to `ui/` instead?
|
||||
|
||||
Promotion would have resolved the support-vs-product mismatch while keeping the boundary — the right call only if the readline UI were an independently swappable integration or had a second composer, and the consumer census said neither. The structured ACP bridge stays its own package because it is the product protocol surface with its own contract and snapshot tiers; the readline helper is scaffolding for one app's front door. Re-extraction stays cheap pre-release: if a second product app wants the readline UI, split it back out then, with that consumer shaping the package contract.
|
||||
|
||||
## Consequences
|
||||
|
||||
- The stdio app owns its whole front door; a leaf `cordis.yml` still loads one app package and nothing changed shape for the demos.
|
||||
- A future standalone terminal UI that wants the helper as a package reintroduces it with that second consumer, rather than the repo keeping a boundary for hypothetical reuse.
