 Import profile and bundle declaration types from [`@deepseek-ai/dsh-package-manifest`](../../util/package-manifest/README.md). App-boot adapts `DshPackageManifest` to `ProfileManifest` with optional package identity because local profiles need no published version. App-boot owns profile loading, JSON validation, and resolved runtime data.
 
-A profile is how one dsh installation ships different app surfaces: `web`, `headless`, `acp`, `sdk`, and `sdk-minimal` start distinct compositions from the same launcher. A profile lives at `$DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>` and combines installable bundles with its own `cordis.patch.yml`. A bundle's `dsh.bundle.patch` names one patch file or an ordered list of files; `bundlePatchFiles` validates the declaration and `bundlePatchPaths` resolves it to absolute paths; the layer concatenates their patch lists in that order. The YAML composition enables or disables HMR. The shipped `web` template uses live reload, while the other shipped templates apply patches only at startup. `sdk-minimal` names only its standalone bundle; the other templates retain base-plus-mode stacks. `dsh --profile <name> --from-default-profile <template>` creates a custom profile at a new non-shipped name from one shipped template, while `dsh plugin` initializes a base-backed profile and manages its installed bundles. Bundle resolution, manifest, and patch-loading failures print a diagnostic and skip that bundle without changing its selection. Remaining bundles keep their order; profile and user-patch errors still fail startup. Skipping a bundle does not guarantee that the remaining composition can provide the required services. Application-owned npm projects, such as Electron's reserved Desktop profile, use `loadProfileDirectory` to load an already initialized directory without exposing it through CLI profile lookup.

Bundle resolution, manifest, and patch-loading failures skip that bundle without changing its selection; the loaded profile lists each skip in `skippedBundles`, and the launcher prints them once per start with `reportSkippedBundles`. Remaining bundles keep their order; profile and user-patch errors still fail startup. Skipping a bundle does not guarantee that the remaining composition can provide the required services. Application-owned npm projects, such as Electron's reserved Desktop profile, use `loadProfileDirectory` to load an already initialized directory without exposing it through CLI profile lookup.
 
 Before a profile imports a plugin, DSH checks its `peerDependencies` on `@deepseek-ai/dsh` and `@deepseek-ai/dsh-*` against the single runtime version returned by `getDshRuntimeVersion()`. Every declared range must match; prereleases participate in range matching. Source-workspace `workspace:^`, `workspace:~`, and `workspace:*` refer to that same runtime. Missing DSH peers impose no constraint; invalid ranges are incompatible. These checks use peer declarations, not `engines.dsh`, and are not a sandbox against malicious package code.
 
-Admission happens only at composition boundaries DSH owns, and a denied row is denied in the launcher's own copy of the composition: no profile patch layer, dependency manifest, or bundle list changes. `prepareProfilePatches` composes over the launcher's empty profile root and runs while the root Include is mounted and on every profile recomposition, so a denied plugin never imports its module. `prepareProfileEntries` does the same for a preset's rows. A denied ordinary row becomes a detached `disabled: true` row; a native group stays mounted and its denied children do not load; a native Include that reaches a denied plugin is omitted whole, because its file is never rewritten. A row denied by policy keeps its configured `disabled` value in the profile, and every refusal is reported with the package, versions, and risk. A bundle is not a row, so `loadProfileDirectory` checks each bundle's own DSH peers when it loads the profile's bundle layers, at startup and on every recomposition; an incompatible bundle without an exemption is skipped like an unreadable one. These boundaries do not cover plugins another embedder mounts through its own `ctx.plugin` call. Two edits made directly to files during a session are judged only at the next recomposition or startup: a running plugin's own `package.json` peer declaration, and an entry-list file the Loader reads itself, such as the launcher's root config or a nested `cordis:include` file. `--dump-config` reports the configured composition, so a denied plugin row still appears there while a denied bundle contributes no rows, and `--dump-config-schema` imports each composed module to read its schema; run it only against a profile whose plugins you already trust.

 Exact-version exemptions live in the profile's own `compatibility.json`, not in its `package.json`, so an exemption write never touches the dependency manifest, the bundle list, or Cordis patch files. It maps exact `package-name@version` keys to lists of exact DSH runtime versions; neither a plugin upgrade nor a DSH upgrade inherits permission. A missing file means no exemptions. A malformed one never stops the profile from starting: records the reader accepts still apply, each rejected record is reported on stderr beside the plugin denials, and the file is then treated as read-only, so a grant or revocation refuses and asks the user to repair it by hand instead of overwriting their content. [Plugin Manager](../plugin-manager/README.md#version-compatibility-and-exemptions) owns the grant, revocation, and risk confirmation each change requires.

 profile 导入插件前，DSH 会检查其 `peerDependencies` 中对 `@deepseek-ai/dsh` 和 `@deepseek-ai/dsh-*` 的依赖，与 `getDshRuntimeVersion()` 返回的唯一运行时版本比较。每个声明的版本范围都必须匹配；预发布版本参与范围匹配。源码工作区的 `workspace:^`、`workspace:~` 和 `workspace:*` 指向同一个运行时。未声明 DSH peer 时不施加版本约束；无效范围视为不兼容。这些检查使用 peer 声明，而不是 `engines.dsh`，也不是防范恶意包代码的沙箱。
 
-检查只发生在 DSH 自己持有的组合入口，改写的是启动器自己的那份组合：profile 的 patch 层、依赖清单与组合包列表都不会改变。`prepareProfilePatches` 在启动器的空 profile 根之上组合，并在挂载根 Include 时以及每次 profile 重新组合时执行，因此被拒绝的插件永远不会导入其模块；`prepareProfileEntries` 对 preset 行做同样的事。被拒绝的普通行会变成游离的 `disabled: true` 行；原生 group 保持挂载，其被拒绝的子行不会加载；若某个原生 Include 会到达被拒绝的插件，则整体省略该 Include，因为它的文件不会被改写。被策略拒绝的行在 profile 中保留其配置的 `disabled` 值，每次拒绝都会报告包名、版本与风险。组合包本身不是行，因此 `loadProfileDirectory` 在启动和每次重新组合加载 profile 的组合包层时，检查每个组合包自己声明的 DSH peer；没有豁免的不兼容组合包会像无法读取的组合包一样被跳过。这些入口不覆盖其他嵌入方通过自己的 `ctx.plugin` 调用挂载的插件。会话中直接改文件的两类编辑只在下一次重新组合或启动时才被判定：正在运行的插件自己的 `package.json` peer 声明，以及 Loader 自己读取的入口清单文件（如启动器的根配置或嵌套的 `cordis:include` 文件）。`--dump-config` 报告的是配置出的组合，因此被拒绝的插件行仍会出现在其中，而被拒绝的组合包不提供任何行；`--dump-config-schema` 会导入每个组合模块以读取其 schema，请只对已经信任其插件的 profile 运行。

 精确版本豁免保存在 profile 自己的 `compatibility.json` 中，而不是 `package.json`，因此写豁免不会触及依赖清单、组合包列表或 Cordis patch 文件。它把精确的 `package-name@version` 键映射到精确 DSH 运行时版本列表；插件升级和 DSH 升级都不继承授权。文件缺失表示没有豁免。文件损坏绝不会阻止 profile 启动：读取器接受的记录仍然生效，每条被拒绝的记录会与插件拒绝信息一起输出到 stderr，此后该文件被视为只读，因此授予或撤销会拒绝执行并要求用户手工修复，而不是覆盖用户的内容。[插件管理器](../plugin-manager/README.zh.md#version-compatibility-and-exemptions)负责每次变更所需的授权、撤销与风险确认。
