The browse interaction also presents a dialog (the in-app modal), so 'dialog' failed to discriminate the two capability kinds; 'native' names where the chooser runs. Package directory-picker-dialog -> directory-picker-native, kind 'dialog' -> 'native', with every seam/gateway/client/doc reference updated and the seam Agent Note's naming rationale rewritten to match.

The in-app browsing backend of the directory-picker seam: BrowseDirectoryPicker registers ctx.directoryPicker with the browse capability — one-level directory listing and child-directory creation over Node's stdlib, which already carries the per-OS adaptation. Nothing renders on the host display, so this backend serves remote clients the native backend cannot.
Behavior facts: listings return directories only, name-sorted, with symlinks-to-directories followed (broken/cyclic links skipped — the probe stat failing means "not enterable") and a host-owned hidden flag (POSIX dot convention) left for the client to act on; crumbs is the root-to-target ancestor chain, the root crumb labeled by its full path (/, C:\); an absent list path means the host account's home directory. createDirectory is non-recursive (a missing parent is a real failure, not a level to invent) and validates the name as a single non-blank segment even when called directly, mirroring the wire schema's fence. Both primitives reject an explicit path that is not fully qualified — relative forms, and on Windows the rooted drive-less forms (\foo, /foo) and incomplete UNC prefixes (\\, \\server) that isAbsolute accepts — with directory-unreadable/directory-create-failed, instead of letting resolve rebase it under the host process cwd or current drive. Failures throw the seam's typed DirectoryPickerError. Policy rationale: the directory-picker capability seam Agent Note.
Model Experience
None, as the backend serves the GUI host's directory selection; nothing here reaches a model request.
KV Cache effect
None; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request.
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- Windows hidden attribute is not read — Node dirents do not expose
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN, sohiddenmeans dot-prefixed on every platform until a native probe is worth its cost. - No drive-root enumeration — on Windows the ancestry stops at the drive root; crossing drives waits for the browser UI's path-entry affordance rather than an enumeration primitive here.
- Whole-filesystem scope — no per-deployment browse-root restriction;
workspace.createaccepts arbitrary paths today, so a root here would be UX scoping, not a boundary — deferred until a deployment needs it.
