Tianyi Cui 30cd67b8a1 simplify(llm): drop unconsumed adapter-change event and assembled call surfaces
The LLM service exposed three call surfaces (stream/streamBlocks/generate) but
the only production consumer — the agent loop — uses stream() exclusively,
feeding raw chunks through its own BlockAssembler for replay fidelity. Drop the
speculative convenience surfaces and the registry-change event that no listener
consumed, leaving stream() as the single model-call contract for both
production and tests.

- Remove LlmService.streamBlocks() and generate(), the llm/generate waterfall,
  and GenerateResult.
- Remove the llm/adapter-change event (declaration + emits) and the
  listener-throw rollback ordering that existed only to protect it; keep the
  HMR rollback disposer.
- Remove BlockAssembler.flushReady()/flushRemaining()/result() and the flushed
  cursor — the streaming-flush slice existed only for streamBlocks().
- Adapter tests drive a stream()+BlockAssembler helper (tests/assemble.ts)
  instead of generate(), exercising the same path production uses.
- Land the AGENTS.md "RFCs are proposals, not golden truth" principle and move
  both RFCs proposed -> implemented.

# RFC: Microkernel — extension via Cordis event taxonomy, one concrete loop
Status: implemented (accepted 2026-06-11)
<!-- XXX: legacy ADR/RFC body format, not yet normalized to a unified RFC template. -->
## Context
The product principle (see the 微内核Harness实现思路 design doc) is "everything is a plugin": hooks, /goal, /loop, dynamic workflows, compaction, sandboxing, permissions, UI, persistence, MCP, skills must all be writable as plugins without modifying the core. Candidate mechanisms considered: a purpose-built middleware stack (koa-compose style), an explicit phase state machine plugins can insert into, or Cordis's native event system.
## Decision
Pure Cordis event taxonomy. The loop's extension seams are typed events with deliberate dispatch modes:
- **waterfall** (around-middleware) where plugins mutate or veto: `agent/request`, `agent/step-result`, `agent/turn-continuation`, `tools/execute`, `llm/stream`, `system-prompt/assemble`.
- **emit** (sync fire-and-forget) for notifications: turn/step boundaries, stream chunks, lifecycle, errors.
- **parallel** (awaited) for the one durability checkpoint: `session/flush`.
The event vocabulary lives in interface packages (dsh-agent declares the agent/* events); `@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-loop` is the only concrete loop plugin and is itself swappable — nothing outside it may depend on it.
## Consequences
- Every MVP feature maps to a listener (the "plugin sanity checklist" in docs/architecture.md is the proof obligation, kept current).
- HMR and disposal come free: listeners and registrations are Cordis effects.
- Waterfall semantics (call `next()` or short-circuit) are non-obvious and must be taught — documented in AGENTS.md and covered by composition tests.
- The loop must be defensive: plugin exceptions are contained at turn level, steering from any seam is never stranded (regression-tested).
