`session.create` also adopts an already-live session, and the preceding commit newly allows adopting one under the preset it switched to while blank. Its response still echoed `header.agentPreset`, so that adoption answered with the preset the session had just left — contradicting the request it had accepted and the row `session.list` serves for the same session from `resolveSessionPreset()`. The echo now resolves the same way. The `assertPresetUnchanged` parameter doc said `existing` was the preset the session was created under; both callers now pass what it runs. `composeFrom()` was documented as "infallible" and "cannot fail" beside two `@throws`. It has no composition failure mode — no roster read, no mount, no file — but it does reject a caller error, and the wording now says which. The package-level "switched preset" test re-linked to the same preset id, so it could not tell reading the parent's live scope chain from reading its creation header. A second fixture preset makes the switch real. The Web browser lane's subagent goldens gain the preset badge a child now shows, which is the visible consequence of recording its composition. That lane runs only under DSH_EXAMPLE_MODE=lib and was missed before. The Agent Note records two limits found in review: a cold-resumed continuable child joins its parent's current composition rather than the one its header names, and `toolFilter` does not constrain a joined child. The latter is a regression from the agent-plane move rather than anything this change introduces — with the same tools in the global layer the filter applies normally — and is tracked in #2185.

The self-referential Cordis toolset: three model-facing tools over the live runtime in the current DSH process. Design home — sandbox semantics, temporary-plugin lifecycle and composition, the generated API catalog, standing decisions: the toolset Agent Note.
What it does
cordis_inspect— read-only report over the current process: services, all live plugin fibers, registered tools, thecordis_mounttemporary-Plugin subset, and the catalog-backedapi/eventsreferences. An exactnamewithwhat: "api"orwhat: "events"narrows the report and adds the original source JSDoc.cordis_mount— evaluates model-written JavaScript now and saves it nowhere; the code must return an in-memory temporary Plugin tracked asdyn-<n>.cordis_unmount— unmounts onedyn-<n>temporary Plugin and returns only after its owned effects reach quiescence. It cannot remove Loader, configured, or installed Plugins.
Exact model-facing schemas: the generated tool catalog.
Canonical successes are the inspection string, mount { id, pluginName, state, provides, waitingFor }, and unmount { id, pluginName }. Native rendering says whether the temporary Plugin is running or pending and that it remains available until unmounted or DSH restarts; unmount confirms that it was removed.
Temporary Plugins live only in the shared DSH process memory. They remain active across later turns and may affect other sessions in that process, but disappear after cordis_unmount, toolset unload, or DSH restart. They create no Plugin file, install no package, change no cordis.yml or personal/project configuration, do not survive restart, and cannot be promoted automatically. To keep an experiment, ask the Agent to implement a normal local, project, or repository Plugin through the regular development workflow.
Trust stance
The sandbox isolates globals but is not a security boundary. Node globals are absent or redirect to Cordis services such as ctx.fs, ctx.web, and ctx.bash, and writes to globalThis stay local, but host-realm helpers make escape possible. Mounted plugins receive a façade without framework internals, yet its allowed services affect the live runtime. Dynamic tool schemas and annotations cross the realm through iterative JSON cloning and schema normalization, so valid deep declarations are memory-bounded rather than call-stack-bounded; records with JSON-invisible keys and subclassed or decorated schema arrays reject before normalization. Treat this toolset like bash access; see the design and trust stance.

The generated API catalog
src/api-catalog.ts is generated from the same Typert FaceModel projection as the subsystem pages' generated regions and freshness-gated by pnpm run verify-cordis-api (in doc-sync) — never edit it by hand. scripts/gen-cordis-api.ts is a compatibility entry point for that unified projection, not a second collector. cordis_inspect intersects the committed catalog with the live service store at call time; it has no runtime Typert dependency. Broad api / events reports render summaries and signatures only; an exact name opts into the retained method/event JSDoc, and unknown or non-running service targets fail loud.
Rendering
All three tools render generic cards (read / execute / delete); cordis_mount carries the temporary-Plugin code as rawInput. Presenters are pure functions of the args; results keep the default text rendering.
Export shape
Namespace plugin: named exports name / inject / Config / apply, no default export (docs/postmortem/0001).
Model Experience
Tool schemas
What the model sees
The conversation model sees the generated cordis_inspect, cordis_mount, and cordis_unmount schemas whenever this plugin is visible.
Token effect
Fixed schema cost on every request in that tool view.
KV Cache effect
Prefix-stable while this tool view is unchanged. Scoping or plugin lifecycle changes that hide these definitions may invalidate reuse from the first changed schema token.
Tool-call history and results
What the model sees
Inspect joins selected sections exactly as ## <section> then a newline and the data-dependent body, with one blank line between sections; what: "temporary" uses the ## Temporary Plugins heading. Each temporary-Plugin row reports running/pending state, provided and awaited services, and its lifetime until unmounted or DSH restart. The empty state explains that cordis_mount Plugins disappear on restart. Broad API/event reports omit JSDoc; name with what: "api" or what: "events" returns one exact target with its original JSDoc. Mount returns Temporary Plugin <id> is running (...) or Temporary Plugin <id> is pending (...); unmount returns Temporary Plugin <id> was unmounted and removed. The submitted program remains in assistant tool-call history.
Token effect
Inspect output and mount code are data-dependent and resent until compaction; lifecycle acknowledgements are small.
KV Cache effect
Append-only; newly visible content follows the reusable request prefix and does not invalidate existing KV-cache entries.
Later requests after cordis_mount
What the model sees
A temporary Plugin may register tools, prompt contributions, or listeners that change later requests for the scopes it targets; cordis_unmount removes those contributions after quiescence.
Token effect
Indirect token impact equals the temporary Plugin's contributions and lasts only for its process-local lifetime.
KV Cache effect
Mounting or unmounting a prompt or tool contribution changes later request prefixes and may invalidate reuse from the first changed contribution; an unchanged temporary-Plugin set remains prefix-stable.
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- The sandbox is containment for honest code, not a security boundary — host-realm helpers on the sandbox global are reachable, so mount code can reach Node; load this plugin as deliberately as you would grant a bash tool (see § Trust stance).
- The
ctxfaçade exposes noeffect()— mount code cannot register a bespoke disposer;on/provide/tools.registerare the supported cleanup paths. vmTimeoutMsbounds only synchronous evaluation — an async mount body escapes it; there is no async budget on mount code.
