feat/dsh plugin (#3356)

* docs: remove .superpowers

* feat(dsh-plugin): bring the DeepSeek Harness plugin into the monorepo

Moves dsh-plugin-reactive-resume out of its own repository and into
packages/dsh-plugin. It stays a published, public npm package — the only
one here — but now builds, typechecks, tests, and lints under the same
turbo tasks as everything else.

The move pays for itself in the drift guard. Standalone, the plugin kept a
generated snapshot of the tool names scraped from the live server card at
https://rxresu.me, plus a weekly CI job to notice when that snapshot went
stale. Sitting next to packages/mcp, it reads MCP_TOOL_NAME directly, so a
tool rename breaks the prompt guide on the same pull request instead of
days later. The snapshot, the fetch script, and the scheduled job are gone.

packages/mcp gains a ./tool-names export so that import goes through the
public export map rather than another workspace's src.

Also flips autoInstallPeers off. The DeepSeek Harness rc packages declare
peers that are host-supplied and, in one case
(@deepseek-ai/dsh-type-meta), not published at all, so auto-install 404s
the whole workspace. Turning it off drops only optional peers elsewhere;
@neodrag/core was the single hard peer that had been arriving implicitly,
and it is now declared where it is used. Full typecheck and test suites
pass, and pnpm peers check reports nothing new beyond the pre-existing
drizzle-orm range mismatch.

Tests move from test/ to colocated src/*.test.ts and the build output from
lib/ to dist/ to match repository conventions.

* fix(dsh-plugin): ship a bundle manifest and target the current Harness

`dsh plugin add` warned that the package "declares no dsh.bundle — installed
as a plain dependency, not a profile layer", and it was right. Every other
Harness plugin, in-box and third-party, ships a cordis.patch.yml and points
dsh.bundle.patch at it; that declaration is what joins a package to a
profile's bundle stack. Without it the package installed and then sat inert,
and the README's hand-written insert row was a workaround for the gap rather
than the intended way in.

The peer ranges were also a generation behind. They asked for
@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client and dsh-system-prompt at ^0.0.1-rc.1, which
cannot match the 0.1.0-rc.6 a current harness ships, so the plugin could
never have resolved against the thing it targets. Both APIs are unchanged
across the bump — StreamableHttpConfig still takes the same six fields and
PromptSection still takes name/order/text — so this is a range correction,
not a migration.

That bump pays for itself elsewhere. The old generation peer-depended on
@deepseek-ai/dsh-type-meta, which was never published, and working around
that 404 is why merging this package turned autoInstallPeers off for the
whole repository and pulled @neodrag/core in by hand. The new generation
dropped that peer and publishes every other one, so both changes are
reverted and pnpm-workspace.yaml is back to what it was.

Because a bundle patch mounts the plugin the moment it is installed, a
required apiKey would fail config validation and take the profile down
before the user ever had a chance to mint a key. It now defaults to empty
and apply() warns and mounts nothing, matching how dsh-honcho-memory
handles the same problem.

Verified by packing the tarball and installing it into a clean project with
default pnpm settings: it resolves, imports, and reports its exports.

# Spike: does `ctx.tools.restrict()` reach a child scope's tools?
**Verdict up front:** `restrict reaches child-scope tools: NO`
The plugin's own `apply(ctx, config)` — a bare Cordis plugin context that
never mints a `dsh-scope` scope — cannot call `ctx.tools.restrict()` at all.
It throws. When the arrangement is fixed so `restrict()` is at least
callable (a real agent-style scope), it still refuses to touch a tool the
bridge registered inside that same scope's own layer. Neither path reaches
the topology this plugin needs. The `tools` config key must not ship in
0.1.0.
## Environment and bootstrapping
Scaffolded a throwaway workspace at `/tmp/dsh-spike` (deleted after this
spike; nothing there is part of the plugin repo).
```bash
mkdir -p /tmp/dsh-spike && cd /tmp/dsh-spike && pnpm init
```
**Version resolution problem.** `pnpm add @deepseek-ai/cordis @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools @deepseek-ai/schemastery`
with no version pins resolves `dsh-tools` to its `next` dist-tag
(`0.1.0-rc.6`), whose peer chain requires `@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent` and
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-session`, both of which peer-depend on
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-type-meta` — a package that returns a plain 404 from the
public npm registry (confirmed directly: `npm view @deepseek-ai/dsh-type-meta`
`404 Not Found`). Pinning `dsh-tools` to `0.0.1-rc.1` (the version this
plugin actually targets — confirmed via `npm view @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools
dist-tags`, where `latest` is `0.0.1-rc.1`) does not by itself fix this: pnpm
still auto-installs peer dependencies for the lockfile, so the same
`dsh-type-meta` 404 recurs indirectly through `dsh-agent`'s and
`dsh-session`'s peer graph.
**Fix that worked:** disable pnpm's peer auto-install and add only the
packages `dsh-tools`'s *compiled* `lib/index.js` actually imports at
runtime (checked directly — `import type` lines don't need the package on
disk, real `import` lines do):
```
import { Service } from "@deepseek-ai/cordis";
import z from "@deepseek-ai/schemastery";
import { AnonymousEntries, NamedEntries, ScopedLayers, scopeOf, scopeTarget } from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-scope";
import { CallId, HarnessError, assertNever, deepFreeze } from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-llm";
import { isJsonValue, snapshotJsonValue } from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-session";
```
`.npmrc`:
```
auto-install-peers=false
strict-peer-dependencies=false
```
Install commands, in order (each added only after the previous run's
`ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND` named the next missing runtime import):
```bash
pnpm add @deepseek-ai/cordis@^4.0.1-rc.1 @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools@0.0.1-rc.1 @deepseek-ai/schemastery@^3.18.1-rc.1 \
--config.auto-install-peers=false --config.strict-peer-dependencies=false
pnpm add @deepseek-ai/dsh-scope@0.0.1-rc.1 @deepseek-ai/dsh-llm@0.0.1-rc.1 @deepseek-ai/dsh-session@0.0.1-rc.1 \
--config.auto-install-peers=false --config.strict-peer-dependencies=false
pnpm add @deepseek-ai/dsh-system-prompt@0.0.1-rc.1 @deepseek-ai/dsh-invariants@0.0.1-rc.1 \
--config.auto-install-peers=false --config.strict-peer-dependencies=false
pnpm add @deepseek-ai/dsh-timeout@0.0.1-rc.1 \
--config.auto-install-peers=false --config.strict-peer-dependencies=false
```
`dsh-system-prompt` and `dsh-invariants` were needed for a second reason,
not just a `dsh-tools` runtime import: `ToolRegistry.inject = ["systemPrompt"]`
and its constructor calls `ctx.systemPrompt.tools(...)` immediately, so a
`systemPrompt` service must be mounted on `ctx` *before* `ToolRegistry` is.
`dsh-timeout` surfaced one level further down, as a real (non-type) import
inside `dsh-llm`'s compiled output.
None of the packages actually needed at `0.0.1-rc.1` depend on
`dsh-type-meta` — only `dsh-agent` and `dsh-session`'s *peer* list does
(`dsh-session` doesn't import it at runtime, so it was never installed and
never missed). Final resolved set: `cordis@4.0.1`, `dsh-tools@0.0.1-rc.1`,
`schemastery@3.18.1`, `dsh-scope@0.0.1-rc.1`, `dsh-llm@0.0.1-rc.1`,
`dsh-session@0.0.1-rc.1`, `dsh-system-prompt@0.0.1-rc.1`,
`dsh-invariants@0.0.1-rc.1`, `dsh-timeout@0.0.1-rc.1`.
**Dead end worth recording:** before finding the npm-registry version-pin
fix, I found a fully-resolved install of these packages already on disk at
`~/.local/share/mise/installs/node/24.19.0/lib/node_modules/@deepseek-ai/dsh/node_modules/@deepseek-ai/*`
(the globally-installed `dsh` CLI's own bundled `node_modules`). That
install is `dsh-tools@0.1.0-rc.6`, not `0.0.1-rc.1` — a different minor
line with a renamed class (`ToolRuntime`, not `ToolRegistry`) and a
different `register`/`restrict`/`schemas` signature (`scope?: ScopeKey`
parameter instead of implicit calling-context resolution). I did **not**
use this install for the verdict below — it's the wrong pinned version for
this plugin — but it's why the bootstrapping path above took several
iterations: I initially assumed the API surface from that install, then had
to re-derive it from the actually-pinned `0.0.1-rc.1` types.
## The actual `ToolDefinition` shape (0.0.1-rc.1)
The brief's guessed shape (`parameters`, bare `async execute() { return
{content:[...]} }`) doesn't compile against `node_modules/@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools/lib/types/index.d.ts`.
The real shape:
```ts
export interface ToolDefinition extends ToolSchema {
// ToolSchema = { name: string; description: string; parameters: Record<string, unknown> }
readonly output: ToolOutputDefinition; // MANDATORY, not optional
execute(args: unknown, exec: ToolRunContext): Promise<unknown>; // returns the canonical value, not ContentBlock[]
finalizeContent?(...): ContentBlock[] | undefined;
timeoutMs?: number;
isConcurrencySafe?(args: unknown): boolean;
presentCall?(args: unknown): ToolCallView | undefined;
presentResult?(args: unknown, result: ToolResult): ToolResultView | undefined;
}
interface ToolOutputDefinition {
readonly schema: JsonSchemaNode; // enforced JSON Schema subset
render(args: unknown, value: JsonValue): ContentBlock[]; // projects the canonical value to model-facing content
presentationMeta?(args: unknown, value: JsonValue): JsonValue;
}
```
`execute()` returns the tool's canonical JSON value (validated against
`output.schema`); `output.render()` is what turns that value into
`ContentBlock[]`. `register()` throws a `TypeError` if `output` is missing
or `output.render` isn't a function — confirmed by reading
`ToolRegistry.register` in the compiled `lib/index.js`.
`ToolRegistry` itself: `export { ToolRegistry, ToolRegistry as default }`
it's a Cordis `Service` subclass (`super(ctx, "tools")`), so it's mounted
with `ctx.plugin(ToolRegistry, config)`, not `ctx.plugin(tools)` where
`tools` is the whole module namespace (the brief's guess).
## The mechanism (read from the compiled source, then verified by running it)
`declare module '@deepseek-ai/cordis' { interface Context { tools: ToolRegistry } }`
`ctx.tools` is one Cordis **service singleton**, shared down the whole
context tree exactly like every other Cordis service. There is no
per-Cordis-child-context instance of the registry; nesting a plugin under
`ctx.plugin(...)` does not give it a private `tools`.
What actually gates `register()`/`restrict()`'s visibility isn't the Cordis
plugin-context tree at all — it's a **separate, opt-in scoping layer** from
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-scope`:
- `scopeOf(ctx)` reads "the nearest scope tag inherited by a context" — and
a context only carries a scope tag if something called
`createScope(ctx, key)` on it (or a Cordis ancestor of it). A plain
`ctx.plugin(child)` context is **not** scoped by that call alone.
- `ToolRegistry.register(definition)`: `this.layers.effect(this.ctx, (layer) => layer.tools.insert(name, definition), ...)`
lands in whatever layer `scopeOf(this.ctx)` resolves to (the global layer
if unscoped). No scope requirement to call it.
- `ToolRegistry.restrict(filter)`: the **first line** is
`const scope = scopeOf(this.ctx); if (scope === void 0) throw new Error("tools.restrict() requires a scoped context (agent.ctx): ...")`.
It is unconditionally unusable from an unscoped context — this is not a
silent no-op, it's a thrown error.
- Even when `scope !== undefined`, `restrict()` computes
`known = this.view(scope).restrictableNames` (the scope's *inherited*
surface — global + ancestor layers) and rejects any name not in that set:
`"a restriction filters what this scope inherits, never what it registers itself"`.
A tool registered as a **child** of the exact scope doing the restricting
is, by construction, in that scope's own layer, not its inherited surface
— so it is unconditionally unreachable by that scope's own `restrict()`
call, confirmed by the second probe below.
This is a stricter, more mechanical version of what the `ToolRestriction`
docstring already said in prose (`"do not affect the scope's own
registrations"`) — the two probes below hit it from two different angles
and got two different thrown errors, not one graceful no-op.
## Probe 1 — the literal topology from the task brief
`ctx.plugin(mcpClient)` mounts the bridge as a Cordis **child** of the
plugin's own `apply(ctx, config)`; the plugin then calls
`ctx.tools.restrict(...)` from its own (parent, unscoped) `ctx`. This
reproduces the plugin's real design as literally as a stub allows.
`/tmp/dsh-spike/probe.ts`:
```ts
import { Context } from "@deepseek-ai/cordis";
import SystemPrompt from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-system-prompt";
import ToolRegistry from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools";
const root = new Context();
// ToolRegistry.inject = ["systemPrompt"], and its constructor calls
// ctx.systemPrompt.tools(...) immediately, so systemPrompt must be mounted first.
await root.plugin(SystemPrompt);
await root.plugin(ToolRegistry);
/** Stands in for dsh-mcp-client: registers one tool in whatever scope loads it. */
const stubBridge = {
name: "stub-bridge",
inject: ["tools"],
apply(ctx: Context) {
ctx.tools.register({
name: "mcp__resume__list_applications",
description: "stub",
parameters: { type: "object", properties: {} },
output: {
schema: { type: "string" },
render: (_args: unknown, value: unknown) => [{ type: "text", text: String(value) }],
},
async execute() {
return "ok";
},
});
},
};
// The plugin under design mounts the bridge as a child, exactly like this.
await root.plugin(stubBridge);
const names = () => root.tools.schemas().map((s) => s.name);
console.log("BEFORE", names());
try {
const dispose = root.tools.restrict({ deny: ["mcp__resume__list_applications"] });
console.log("AFTER", names());
dispose();
console.log("DISPOSED", names());
} catch (err) {
console.log("RESTRICT_THREW", (err as Error).message);
}
```
Run with `node --experimental-strip-types probe.ts`. Actual output,
verbatim:
```
BEFORE [ 'mcp__resume__list_applications' ]
RESTRICT_THREW tools.restrict() requires a scoped context (agent.ctx): a context-global restriction would mask every agent — deny the tool for the intended agent instead
```
`restrict()` never gets a chance to filter anything — it throws before
touching the tool set, because `root` (and every context under it, absent
an explicit `createScope()`) is unscoped.
## Probe 2 (Step 4) — the best-case sibling arrangement
Per the brief's Step 4, tried fixing the exception by giving the plugin a
real `dsh-scope` scope (what `createScope()` provides) and calling
`restrict()` from *inside* that scope, matching "registering the
restriction inside the same scope the bridge loads into."
Where a real agent gets this: `@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-loop@0.0.1-rc.1`
`lib/index.js:375`
```js
this.scope = createScope(loopCtx, this);
this.ctx = this.scope.ctx.extend({ agent: this });
```
**not** `dsh-agent`, which never calls `createScope` (its compiled
`lib/index.js` only calls `scopeTarget`, for event routing, not for minting
a scope). This is the exact line that builds `agent.ctx` — the thing
`ToolRegistry`'s thrown error message names as what `restrict()` requires.
Confirmed directly: installed both `dsh-agent@0.0.1-rc.1` and
`dsh-agent-loop@0.0.1-rc.1` with the same
`--config.auto-install-peers=false --config.strict-peer-dependencies=false`
workaround used for the rest of the dependency tree (`dsh-type-meta` is only
a *peer* dependency of `dsh-agent`, never a runtime import — same situation
as `dsh-session`/`dsh-scope` above — so it's never actually needed on disk),
then grepped the installed `lib/index.js` files for `createScope`.
`/tmp/dsh-spike/probe2.ts`:
```ts
import { Context } from "@deepseek-ai/cordis";
import { createScope } from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-scope";
import SystemPrompt from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-system-prompt";
import ToolRegistry from "@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools";
const root = new Context();
await root.plugin(SystemPrompt);
await root.plugin(ToolRegistry);
const stubBridge = {
name: "stub-bridge",
inject: ["tools"],
apply(ctx: Context) {
ctx.tools.register({
name: "mcp__resume__list_applications",
description: "stub",
parameters: { type: "object", properties: {} },
output: {
schema: { type: "string" },
render: (_args: unknown, value: unknown) => [{ type: "text", text: String(value) }],
},
async execute() {
return "ok";
},
});
},
};
// Mint a dsh-scope "Scope" (what dsh-agent-loop does to build agent.ctx --
// see lib/index.js:375) and mount the bridge as a CHILD of that scope's ctx
// -- i.e. an inherited/ancestor registration relative to the scope itself,
// not the scope's own layer.
const scopeKey = {};
const scope = createScope(root, scopeKey);
await scope.ctx.plugin(stubBridge);
const namesFor = (ctx: Context) => ctx.tools.schemas(scopeKey).map((s) => s.name);
console.log("BEFORE(scoped view)", namesFor(root));
// Cordis requires a plugin to declare inject: ['tools'] to bare-access
// ctx.tools; call restrict() from inside a plugin mounted on scope.ctx so
// the "calling scope" Cordis sees is the scope itself (agent.ctx-equivalent).
let disposeRestrict: (() => void) | undefined;
const restrictor = {
name: "stub-restrictor",
inject: ["tools"],
apply(ctx: Context) {
try {
disposeRestrict = ctx.tools.restrict({ deny: ["mcp__resume__list_applications"] });
console.log("AFTER(scoped view)", namesFor(root));
} catch (err) {
console.log("RESTRICT_THREW", (err as Error).message);
}
},
};
await scope.ctx.plugin(restrictor);
if (disposeRestrict) {
disposeRestrict();
console.log("DISPOSED(scoped view)", namesFor(root));
}
```
Run with `node --experimental-strip-types probe2.ts`. Actual output,
verbatim:
```
BEFORE(scoped view) [ 'mcp__resume__list_applications' ]
RESTRICT_THREW tools.restrict() names unknown inherited tool "mcp__resume__list_applications"; a restriction filters what this scope inherits, never what it registers itself. Restrictable tools: (none)
```
`restrict()` is now at least *callable*, but it explicitly refuses: the
bridge's tool lives in the same scope's own layer (it was mounted as a
Cordis child of `scope.ctx`, which is what makes it inherit that scope
tag), and `restrict()`'s error message says outright that it will never
touch a scope's own registrations, only what it inherits from an ancestor.
`Restrictable tools: (none)` — there was nothing in this arrangement for
the scope to restrict, because nothing was registered in any ancestor of
it.
I did not chase the remaining permutation (bridge registered as an
*ancestor* scope's own layer, restrict called from a *descendant* scope of
that ancestor) — the class-level doc comment in `dsh-tools` confirms that
shape is the one `restrict()` is actually built for (a parent scope curbing
what a child scope inherits from it), but it doesn't match this plugin's
topology: the plugin's `apply(ctx, config)` runs once at harness startup,
before any real agent scope exists, and isn't in a position to be an
ancestor of the eventual agent's scope. Chasing it further would still not
produce an arrangement reachable from this plugin's own `apply(ctx, config)`,
which is the brief's actual bar for flipping the verdict to YES. Time spent
on Step 4: about 15 minutes, well under the 30-minute cap.
I did not spin up a full agent loop from `dsh-agent`/`dsh-agent-loop` (the
stub plugins above stand in for one, per the brief's instruction not to need
a live agent) — but I did install both packages and grep their compiled
output to confirm the `createScope()` attribution above, as noted earlier in
this section. No residual gap remains on that point.
## Verdict
```
restrict reaches child-scope tools: NO
```
Both the literal plugin topology (unscoped `restrict()` call → throws
immediately) and the best-case fix for that (scoped `restrict()` call →
throws with "unknown inherited tool" because the bridge's registration is
the scope's own, not inherited) fail to hide the child-registered tool. The
`tools` config key is deferred out of 0.1.0, per Task 6's fallback note.
## Cleanup
```bash
rm -rf /tmp/dsh-spike
```
