The remaining P1 from the #939 review, plus the P2 it shares a mechanism with.
Nothing carried a version, so two tabs editing one namespace silently
overwrote each other — reproduced as tab B's `reasoning` lost to tab A's
older draft. The seam's per-namespace write queue orders writes; it cannot
tell a fresh writer from one replaying a snapshot a predecessor superseded.
Each namespace now carries a monotonic `revision` over its RAW section. A
write may send `expectedRevision`, checked at the FRONT of the queue (not at
call time, which would race the very predecessor it guards against); a
mismatch rejects with `SettingsConflictError` → `settings-conflict` on the
wire, carrying both revisions. The editor captures the revision it opened at
and, on conflict, asks the user to reopen rather than replaying its snapshot.
The same counter fixes the missing broadcast. `settings/updated` is gated on
the resolved value — correct for consumers, wrong for configuration surfaces:
storing an override equal to the composition base leaves the resolved value
alone while changing what the document says (the field is now overridden, not
inherited) and moving every open editor's revision. `settings/document-updated
(ns, revision)` fires on any raw-section change, in-process or external, and
`host/settings-changed` now rides it.
That event also closes the stale model picker: editing a provider's `models`
changes no route, so `llm/adapters-updated` never fired and an open picker
kept serving the old catalog. A change to an exposed provider namespace now
emits `host/models-changed` too — that namespace holds the catalog.
Docs: both sides of the five touched README pairs, a type-equiv block for
`SettingsPathOp`, and an Agent Note recording what the plane exposes and who
may overwrite what. The deferred wire-redaction gaps (secrets behind
union/intersection/transform, `.default(...)` in the served envelope, schema
text in rejection messages, `new Function` rehydration, pi-ai's `headers`) are
recorded as TODO(settings-wire-redaction) and in Known Limitations rather than
half-fixed.
The `readDenyPaths` policy field shipped in the previous commit broke Linux
confinement outright. bwrap has to create the `/dev/null` bind's mount point
inside a tree its own profile has already made read-only, so it refused the
entire confinement whenever the parent directory was absent — every host that
has not stored a credential yet, including a fresh install:
bwrap: Can't mkdir parents for /home/runner/.dsh/.env: Read-only file system
which the executor correctly classifies as SANDBOX_UNAVAILABLE, so every
confined bash call failed closed. Landlock cannot subtract from its own `/`
read grant, so it reported `partial` enforcement on every confined call for a
file it never hid, with no way to switch the denial off (schemastery fills an
omitted array with `[]`, so empty and omitted were indistinguishable).
A protection that breaks confinement where it works and misreports it where it
does not is worse than a documented absence. Revert the field, both expressible
backends, the enforcement downgrade, and the policy default; state the residue
plainly in the credentials-local READMEs — file mode stops other OS users, not
the model — and keep the OS-keychain provider recorded as the real answer.
The narrower discipline stands: no surface hoists the credential document into
`process.env`, and the model is never handed a resolved path to it.
Both provider READMEs state what actually holds: credentials-local now
documents the physical-line editor, the read-modify-write under the
writer lock, and a Security boundary section saying plainly that the file
mode stops other OS users and not the model. sandbox-policy documents
readDenyPaths and its per-backend enforcement. The llm READMEs carry the
registration handle, pi-ai's credential-miss semantics, and DeepSeek's
same-generation snapshot; app-boot and the CLI README stop describing
$DSH_HOME/.env as an environment layer.
A new Agent Note records the round (and the prior seam note cross-links
it); the sandbox and core catalog pages gain readDenyPaths and
AdapterRegistrationHandle with their manifest entries. The headless
missing-credential snapshot re-records for the reworded guidance, pi-ai
gains the Loader-composition guard its twin already had, and the
deliberate provider symmetry is marked for the clone detector.
The policy home's resolve() now stamps readDenyPaths, so every consumer
that pins the resolved shape (bash-sandbox hand-off, tool-fs stamps)
carries it, and three uncovered branches gained real tests: landlock
reporting partial enforcement for a denial it cannot express, the
policy's default under programmatic construction, and both ambient
credential paths in llm-deepseek without a mounted seam.
The seam README states the JSON-shaped write boundary, watch-disposer
quiescence, async listener containment, and the drained teardown; the
provider README rewrites Behavior around the operation chain,
read-modify-write, writer lock, ready reconcile, and leaf-level YAML
diffs, and updates Known Limitations to the residual guarantees.
A new Agent Note records the round's decisions and supersedes the
original note's deferred-lockfile alternative (cross-linked in place).
Chinese counterparts updated pair-by-pair (three briefed minimal
updates, one whole-document translation); type-equiv, config, cordis,
and module-graph catalogs re-recorded.
Update the six touched client package README pairs (slash menu ordering,
localized group titles and dismiss, permission label twin, goal pause,
plan hint localization, useAnchoredMaxHeight) and keep the owning agent
notes current: SlashSource.order and the MenuView dismiss/localize/clamp
face in the slash-pipeline note, the pause verb in the goal bar note.
New unary method in RpcMethodMap with the title-invalid error code; the impl
resolves the agent (cold sessions resume first) and delegates to
ctx.sessionTitle.rename, returning the normalized title plus its event seq so
clients settle the title projection cell ahead of the push frame. session.fork
stays on the reserved-seam list.
An empty or omitted providers dict is now the valid dormant posture: the
adapter mounts with zero routes and no catalog entries, registers routes
the moment the llm-pi-ai settings section supplies profiles, and drops
them when it empties. The TUI demo mounts the adapter bare, so adding an
openai/anthropic provider is purely a settings.yaml (or, next PR, web
form) operation with per-request apiKeyEnv credential resolution.
New credentials data-structure page (type-equiv manifested), group README,
rewritten llm-deepseek/llm-pi-ai READMEs (dynamic configuration, dict
profiles, credential chain), capability-seams/service-role registration,
Agent Note (bilingual), demo compositions mounting settings-local +
credentials-local with no inline key plumbing, installSettingsSection
consumer helper on the settings seam (deduplicating both adapters' wiring),
jscpd symmetry markers for the provider twins, runtime-closure additions for
python/sdk-runtime, and doc-budget ceilings AGENTS.md 1750→1755 /
packages/README.md 850→865 for the structural one-line group rows.
Node 26.0.0 removed --experimental-transform-types, so the native
source-launch chain cannot start anywhere on that line, and strip-only
mode rejects the vendored syntax (parameter properties, decorators,
runtime enums/namespaces). Switch bin/dsh, the root dsh/demo:tui/
demo:web scripts, and the Code Mode TUI overlay to node --import
tsx/esm: one launch vector across the whole engines range, ~0.4s faster
than the full tsx default (the CJS hook stays off; the graph is
ESM-only).
Delete scripts/tspath-loader.ts and apps/cli/src/tsconfig-paths-loader.ts:
tsx owns both transformation and tsconfig paths projection. Add
dsh-source-launch-smoke to the node-compat gates so the 22.19/26 matrix
executes the real launch vector; no CI job did, which is how the Node 26
breakage shipped silently.
Supersedes the native-TypeScript-source-launch Agent Note (new note
records the profiling evidence and rejected alternatives).
Conflicts were the parallel-edit set: packages/README group table (kept
master's session-title wording, re-added the settings row condensed),
doc-budgets AGENTS.md ceiling (took master's 1750), and regenerated
graph/catalog docs plus re-recorded translation pairs. packages/README.md
ceiling 845 -> 850: the table legitimately gained one row for the new
settings group and the row is already minimal.
Two-package capability family mirroring session-persistence/:
- dsh-settings: abstract Settings service — namespace registry with
caller-fiber effect registrations, layered resolution (schema defaults
< composition base < user document), schemastery validation,
per-namespace deep-equal commit detection, and the settings/updated
event. Boot/registration validation fails loud; provider publishes
keep last-good per namespace.
- dsh-settings-local: settings.yaml/.json provider — resolveSpec
defaulting to $DSH_HOME/settings.yaml, chokidar hot reload,
content-equality self-write suppression, atomic 0600 tmp+rename
writes, comment-preserving YAML namespace patching.
Consumers register inside ctx.inject(['settings'], …), so every
composition works unchanged without a mounted provider. Real Loader +
Include composition test proves cordis.yml boot and external-edit hot
propagation; HMR disposal test proves registry cleanup. Both packages
hold per-file 100% coverage.
Doc budgets rise 1705→1710 (AGENTS.md) and 835→845 (packages/README.md):
one structural line per file for the new package group.
Agent Note: .agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-user-settings-seam.md
The aborted exit no longer awaits close (Node queues it behind any
in-flight read, chaining the departed caller back onto the very stall
the abort escaped) — the abandoned close's failure is swallowed, it has
no consumer. Symlink stat probes race the signal too, with a
per-candidate abort check between probes, so a stalled probe target
cannot keep a departed request alive. The deferred handle cleanup after
a lost opendir race now consumes its own close failure instead of
leaking it as an unhandled rejection.
capability.list gains an optional AbortSignal threaded from the RPC
carrier's request signal (the pickDirectory pattern): a disconnected or
timed-out caller stops the opendir loop instead of the scan outliving
its caller, and the abort surfaces as its own reason rather than a
directory-unreadable dressing. boundedInsert rejects a full window's
at-or-beyond-tail candidate on one comparison and binary-inserts
retained candidates, so an oversized level no longer pays a window scan
per dirent.
The browse level now streams through opendir into a name-sorted window of
maxEntries + 1 candidates (boundedInsert), so memory stays O(maxEntries)
no matter how many children a directory holds and enterability probing
touches only windowed candidates; a windowed broken symlink is not
backfilled since the eviction already marks the level truncated.
schemastery joins the package's runtime dependencies (the source launcher
and isolated installs failed to resolve the value import). The
folder-error dialog's Choose again goes inert while the flow hole is
empty, and the withdrawal effect also keys on the open transition, so a
flow can never open over a hole nobody serves.
One list call now materializes at most maxEntries child rows (config,
default 1000 - GitHub's web-UI directory-listing bound). Candidates sort
before probing so a cut level keeps the name-sorted head and symlink
probing stops with the bound, and DirectoryListing carries a required
truncated flag on the seam and the wire so clients can state
incompleteness instead of silently missing tail entries.
- tsconfig.base.json still aliased the removed directory-picker-dialog and
offered no mapping for -native: on a clean tree, package-name imports and
source launches fell through to a missing lib/ until a build ran.
- The seam note (and the generated seam prose) no longer describe the
browse browser half as shipped here: it lands in the stacked follow-up,
and a -browse composition meanwhile shows the documented empty-hole
default (ds-review-bot).
