creatixchu c565022c8a fix(host): derive the picker capability union from a merge-extensible map
ds-review-bot round 1: the seam documented a merge-extensible union but
shipped a closed alias, and the gateway schema rejected any kind beyond
dialog/browse — a third backend could neither implement the seam nor be
advertised. The union now derives from an augmentable DirectoryPickerCapabilities
map, host.describe.directoryPicker preserves unknown wire kinds, and the
browse fixture applies listDirectory's root special case so creating under
'/' no longer mints a '//name' identity.

# @deepseek-ai/dsh-host-directory-picker
English | [中文](README.zh.md)
The **workspace-directory picking seam** for the web-GUI host: an abstract `DirectoryPicker` service (`ctx.directoryPicker`) whose single contract method `capability()` returns a discriminated capability describing how an operator selects a directory. Backends differ in interaction shape, not just mechanism, so the seam models the shapes explicitly instead of one method set: `{ kind: 'dialog', pick(signal) }` opens one native OS chooser on the host display ([`-dialog`](../directory-picker-dialog/README.md)); `{ kind: 'browse', list(path?), createDirectory(path, name) }` serves listing/creation primitives an in-app browser drives, which works for remote clients no OS dialog can reach ([`-browse`](../directory-picker-browse/README.md)). Consumers switch on `capability().kind`; the union derives from the merge-extensible `DirectoryPickerCapabilities` map (a new backend declaration-merges its shape there), and the documented default for an unknown kind is to hide the picking affordance rather than fail. The capability object must be stable for the service lifetime.
Browse primitives fail with the typed `DirectoryPickerError` (`directory-unreadable` / `directory-exists` / `directory-create-failed`, each carrying the subject `path`), which the consuming gateway maps 1:1 onto wire error codes. `DirectoryEntry` rows carry a host-owned `hidden` flag (POSIX dot convention) so display policy stays client-side; `DirectoryListing.crumbs` is the ancestor chain from the filesystem root, every crumb a jump target. Design rationale, the `ctx.fs` separation, and the policy decisions live in [the directory-picker capability seam Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-28-directory-picker-capability-seam.md).
## Model Experience
None, as the seam 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
- **No multi-root vocabulary** — the browse contract exposes one ancestry chain per listing; per-deployment root scoping (and Windows drive-root enumeration above a drive) waits for a consumer that needs it, per the seam Agent Note.
