SubagentStartRequest.parent, its core-data type-equiv mirror, and the
ACP backend Agent Note still said the out-of-process backend ignores
request.parent — no longer true: with cwd unconfigured it reads exactly
the session header's cwd, and a parent session without one now rejects
at start. State the one-field read at each owning contract, record the
workspace-resolution decision in the Agent Note, and align the README's
accessibility wording with the search-permission guard.
The consolidated resolver scopes the anonymous id to $DSH_HOME rather
than the machine. Update the module contract, README, and Agent Note to
say per-harness-home explicitly instead of over-claiming a machine-global
identity, and record why DSH_HOME scoping is the intended single-root
meaning rather than a regression.
Review fixes for #462:
- resolveDshHome now treats an empty or whitespace-only $DSH_HOME as
unset, so a blank override never resolves the home to cwd via
resolve(''). Restores the guard telemetry's old resolver carried.
- The default-env telemetry test asserts only that globalConfigDir()
returns an absolute path, so a machine DSH_HOME without a .dsh suffix
cannot break it.
Automatic compaction fires mid-conversation, right after the loop warmed
the provider's KV cache with the last routed request. The default
summarizer then issued a separate request whose prefix shared nothing
with that warm request — a bespoke summarizer system prompt followed by
the older history flattened to one rendered transcript string — so a
differing first token invalidated the entire cached prefix and every
compaction re-processed the whole replayed history twice.
Move the compaction directive from the FRONT (a fresh system prompt) to
the END (a trailing user message), and replay the last routed request's
own system prompt, tools, message prefix, and shadowed-region messages
verbatim via session.requestHeader() + deriveEventMessage. The auxiliary
call is now a genuine prefix-extension of the warm request, so the
provider reuses the cached tokens up to the trailing instruction.
SummarizationInput carries the replayed prefix instead of a flat string;
the now-unused renderTranscript/renderContentBlocks path is removed with
its spec. Cache reuse is best-effort (head compaction guarantees a hit;
a mid-range compaction or a differently-routed summarizer forgoes it),
correctness is not.
Delete @deepseek-ai/dsh-home and make dsh-paths the sole owner of the
single-root harness home ($DSH_HOME || ~/.dsh). Migrate tool-bash,
skill-local, and agent-spine-demo off dsh-home, and fold telemetry's
divergent globalConfigDir onto the shared resolver, dropping its second
XDG/APPDATA policy and the deepseek-harness namespace so the anonymous
id lives under the harness home. Add dshHomeDisplay() for symbolic
user-facing paths, replacing workspace-context's bespoke check.
