Rename the concrete Agent class to make its ReAct-style reasoning loop
explicit in the name. Package name, default-export plugin (`AgentLoop`),
and the `ctx.agentLoop` service key are unchanged.
- AgentLoop.resume uses `this.ctx.get('sessionPersistence')` (strict) instead
of the `, false` overload: still topology-independent, but an inactive/
absent backend reads as undefined (rejected by the existing guard) rather
than being handed back mid-teardown.
- Correct the bridge teardown comment: an ACP-created agent's registry entry
binds to the BRIDGE fiber (the factory is reached through the bridge's
traceable proxy, so AgentLoop.start's `this.ctx.effect` registration uses the
caller context), not the AgentLoop fiber — so an ACP-only HMR dispose
reclaims it. Add a regression test pinning that ownership.
- Sync the ctx.get guidance in the post-mortem, packages/AGENTS.md, and the
dsh-code-review skill to the strict form.
Two independent bugs made the ACP server crash the moment an editor (Zed)
connected, despite 178 green unit tests at 100% coverage:
1. `session/new` threw `cannot get property "agents" without inject`. Root
cause: a stray `export default apply` made the cordis Loader's
`unwrapExports` (`exports.default ?? exports`) collapse the module to the
bare `apply` function, discarding the sibling `inject`/`name`/`Config`
named exports. The plugin fiber was built with empty `inject`, so every
`ctx.<service>` read in `apply` threw at load. Fix: remove the default
export so the Loader uses the namespace.
2. `session/load` threw `cannot get property "sessionPersistence" without
inject`. `AgentLoop.resume` read `this.ctx.sessionPersistence` (a service
it deliberately does NOT inject); the property proxy's ancestor-only fiber
walk fails through the bridge's traceable shadow. Fix: read it via
`this.ctx.get('sessionPersistence', false)`, the topology-independent
global-store lookup.
Why the suite missed both: every test mounted the plugin by hand
(`ctx.plugin({name,inject,apply})`), bypassing `unwrapExports` entirely, and
the only test driving these RPCs was key-gated (skipped in CI). Added a no-key
`session/new` e2e that boots the real example through the real Loader — it
fails loudly on bug #1 without an API key. Set `TSX_TSCONFIG_PATH` in the e2e
spawn so the subprocess resolves workspace `paths` from a temp cwd (it was
silently falling back to a stale built `lib/`).
Docs: post-mortem 0001; AGENTS.md "line coverage is not behavior coverage" +
with-key/smoke-test philosophy; packages/AGENTS.md plugin-export-shape and
ctx.get rules; dsh-code-review SKILL checks.
A config agent with `resumeSessionId` set continues a persisted session
instead of starting a fresh `${id}-session-<uuid>`. The id is sourced from
an env var in cordis.yml, so the coding-agent demo can resume a prior
conversation without code changes. The resume is deferred until the
`sessionPersistence` backend loads (via ctx.inject) and is contained: a
missing/unreadable id logs a warning and starts no agent. Adds a real-API
resume e2e proving cross-process continuity through the JSONL backend.
- agent/README: the inject() line said "without triggering a turn",
regressing the #32 turn-enclosure model. Restored the running-vs-idle
wording (idle inject wraps a one-shot injection turn; ADR 0017) to match
the interface JSDoc.
- agent-loop resume() JSDoc said "throws a typed error" but the code
throws a plain Error (consistent with the sibling assertAgentIdFree
throw). Softened to "rejects with a clear error" — no behavior change;
plain Error is intentional (no consumer needs a structured code here).
Add the agent-creation factory seam on ctx.agents (AgentRegistry):
setFactory/create/resume plus the AgentFactory interface and
CreateAgentOptions/ResumeAgentOptions. AgentLoop implements AgentFactory
and registers itself via ctx.agents.setFactory(this), so plugins
create/resume agents through the interface without depending on the
concrete loop package.
- create({ agentId, sessionId, meta?, agentOptions? }) — programmatic
create on a caller-supplied session id (e.g. an ACP-generated id).
- resume({ agentId, resumeSessionId, agentOptions? }) — load a persisted
session via ctx.sessionPersistence (RFC 009) and resume an agent on it;
the live session id is the resumed id, turn numbering and derived
history continue from the loaded log. sessionPersistence is NOT
hard-injected (non-persistent demos still work); resume rejects with a
typed error when it is absent. assertAgentIdFree runs before any
session is created (and again after the load await) so a duplicate id
never leaves an orphaned live session.
Adds the runtime dsh-session-persistence dependency to agent-loop.
Add the durable session-persistence capability seam (ADR 0016): an
abstract SessionPersistence service (dsh-session-persistence,
ctx.sessionPersistence) defining create/append/load/list/has/delete/
update over the existing SessionEvent — no parallel persisted type — and
a first implementation (dsh-session-persistence-jsonl): an append-only
JSONL log per session with crash-safe atomic writes, truncation-repair
of a never-committed crash tail, and a read/replay path. SessionMeta
(format version, cwd, lineage) travels out-of-log via session.header.
A shared runPersistenceContract suite holds every backend to the same
append-only / contiguous-seq / lazy-materialization / serializability
semantics.
Config-driven create() now uses a per-run ${id}-session-<uuid> session
id so a fixed name no longer collides with an on-disk log once a durable
backend is loaded; each run is a new session (a demo simplification). The
examples drop their hand-rolled session-jsonl.ts and load the JSONL
backend via cordis.yml; CI smoke-loads it too.
The agent-facing create/resume factory that consumes load() is a
separate seam, deferred to a follow-up; this change stops at the load
primitive and does not reach into the loop.
Nominal string types via a unique-symbol brand (zero runtime cost):
an AgentId can no longer be passed where a CallId is expected. Each
core package brands the IDs it owns — CallId in dsh-llm (tool-call
correlation across blocks, chunks, session events, and execution
results), SessionId in dsh-session, AgentId in dsh-agent. Construction
goes through same-named factory functions; public string-in APIs
(sessions.create, agentLoop.create) keep accepting plain strings and
brand internally. Policy note in the brand module: brand IDs that
cross package boundaries, not every string.
Docs: per-folder README.md for packages/ (family overview + one per
package: service, events, API, extension points, TODOs), examples/,
and examples/echo-agent/; folder-level AGENTS.md (+ CLAUDE.md
symlinks) for packages/ and vendor/; module-level doc comments in
every packages/*/src file; richer JSDoc on all exported API
(event side effects, disposal contracts, error behavior). Root
AGENTS.md gains a "Type Safety and Documentation" policy section:
the codebase aims to be very type-safe and well documented; type
gymnastics are acceptable in core packages when they improve
plugin-author DX; verbose docs are fine as long as they stay strictly
in sync with the code.
Type safety: removed the upstream-inherited "noImplicitAny": false
from tsconfig.base.json — packages/* now compile under full strict
mode; vendor/loader and vendor/include set it locally (vendor/cordis
already did). Eliminated every `: any` / `as any` from packages and
examples (catch clauses use unknown + a CodedError narrowing type;
event data access uses discriminated-union narrowing).
Typed tool schemas: new @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools schema DSL —
SchemaSpec with per-property `required: true` booleans, type-level
InferArgs<S>, a runtime SchemaSpec → JSON Schema converter, and
defineTool() so first-party tools get typed execute(args) with zero
casts (raw JSON Schema still accepted for MCP interop; chosen over
schemastery because it targets JSON Schema generation directly).
echo-tool and all test tools migrated; +7 tests.
High (loop pipeline): agent/step-result now runs before the
assistant/message append so the session log records what tool dispatch
actually uses; abort is honored between tool calls, not just
mid-stream; steering drains at step start, pending steering overrides
a negative turn-continuation decision (/goal pattern), and leftover
steering is re-enqueued as queued messages so it is never stranded;
exceptions from turn-continuation listeners and session/flush are
contained to the turn (error event + agent/error) instead of killing
the driver loop.
Medium: disposal emits agent/status('disposed') and mid-turn disposal
records reason 'disposed'; duplicate LLM adapter registration throws
(all-or-nothing); SessionEvent is a real discriminated union (casts
removed); model-less agents fail with a clear actionable error unless
agent/request supplies a model.
Low: agent/queued and agent/steering carry the resolved MessageSource;
streamBlocks() yields strictly in stream order and flushes delta-only
blocks (matches generate()); BlockAssembler freezes blocks on
block-end and ignores stragglers from malformed streams; turn
numbering is a counter seeded from the log (fork-safe); LoopAgent's
stop disposer is infallible (a throwing status listener cannot skip
registry cleanup); AgentLoop.create uses a generator effect so stop
and unregister are independent disposables; SessionStore wires
onAppend inside its effect.
21 regression tests added (review-fixes.spec.ts), organized by
finding. Docs updated: loop pseudocode (status emissions, ordering,
error containment, steering guarantees) and waterfall composition
caveat in docs/architecture.md; AGENTS.md notes that excessive tests
are welcome.
