* refactor(loader): compare volatile config in one schema walk; declare hmr/volatile-update in volatile-hmr
Replace the mask/project pair in vendor/loader/src/config/diff.ts with one recursive schema-guided comparison. Absent objects now compare as their declared schema default at every object node, not only under volatile ancestors; both inputs resolve to the same validated config, so the one changed assertion (undefined vs {} under a non-volatile object schema) becomes unchanged. The isJsExpr special case is dropped: expression keys fall through to raw comparison.
Move the hmr/volatile-update Events declaration from vendored Cordis core to its producer, packages/boot/volatile-hmr, matching how dsh-hmr declares hmr/change and hmr/reload. Vendored cordis events.ts returns to upstream content; the inherited Cordis API catalog and the event matrix are regenerated, and the tutorial example imports the package types.
* fix(cosmokit): compare sparse array slots in deepEqual; extend volatile diff coverage
Array.prototype.every skipped holes, so deepEqual(Array(1), ['new']) was true in one direction. Compare every index with holes read as undefined.
config/diff.ts treats expression objects as opaque values even when a schema field shares the marker name, and looks up field schemas with Object.hasOwn so unknown keys named after Object prototype members compare raw. Tests cover absent-object defaults, sparse arrays in both directions, prototype-named keys, metadata-free serialized schema nodes, and a runtime remount check in volatile-hmr. READMEs and the architecture note describe the object-default rule.
* test(schemastery): build serialized schema fixtures without unknown casts
verify-no-unknown-casts rejects the two as-unknown assertions in scripts/volatile-config.spec.ts. Parse the serialized nodes from JSON text instead, matching scripts/loader-config-diff.spec.ts.
* docs(volatile-hmr): drop the scope-scan tag from hmr/volatile-update
verify-scoped-events rejects @dshScopeScan on an event that carries no scoped keys. Catalogs and the event matrix are regenerated.
* docs: regenerate module graph for the volatile-hmr dependency edge
verify-module-graph reports the merged docs stale: volatile-hmr now lists its app-boot dependency.
* test(volatile-hmr): watch the real YAML through an exact config watch
The Windows coverage lane lost the whole spec: its vitest worker exited without a report once this test started a chokidar directory watch (root: ['.']), the only real directory watch in the test suite. Register the include file through hmr.watchConfig instead, the pattern the HMR package's own real-file tests run on Windows, and emit loader/config-reload from the refresh callback as the root-watch path does. packages/boot/hmr/tests/coordination.spec.ts already covers that root-watch emission with a mocked watcher; volatile-hmr and hmr sources stay at 100% coverage.
* test(volatile-hmr): pass the Include path as a file URL
On Windows the plain absolute path made the include subtree fail to load, so the profile-patch test found no consumer entry. Other Include fixtures in this spec already pass file URLs.
* refactor(loader): commit volatile config in Entry.update and remove volatile-hmr
loader/config-reload was emitted from two places (app-boot profile reconciliation and the HMR root watch) and by hand in tests, because a separate plugin needed a "configuration applied" signal to run its own pass. Every update path already funnels through Entry.update, which is where the Loader decides to skip a remount for a volatile-only change. Entry._commitVolatile now parses the candidate through the fiber's internal/config hook and schema, commits the new values into the running references when the ordinary effective values still match, and emits loader/volatile-update to the owning fiber. A changed ordinary effective value falls back to the ordinary remount instead of leaving the instance stale; an invalid candidate is logged and keeps the running references, with the raw config retained for the next activation. Forced group updates take the same path.
Remove packages/boot/volatile-hmr, its event, the app-boot loader/config-reload declaration and emit, and the HMR emission. Loader runtime and real-file tests move to scripts/loader-volatile-update.spec.ts. Docs, catalogs, the event matrix, module graph and the architecture note follow.
* test: share the volatile schema fixture between the schema and Loader specs
The duplication gate flagged the identical Config fixture in scripts/volatile-config.spec.ts and scripts/loader-volatile-update.spec.ts.
* refactor(loader): reduce config/diff.ts to equalExceptVolatile
Entry.update now computes the strict raw option changes itself and only asks diff.ts whether two raw configs differ at most in volatile fields. The ignoreVolatile flag, the options object and the "config is the sole change" rule leave diff.ts; they were the Loader's decision and now sit next to the commit they gate. The raw-config deepEqual in the volatile branch is gone because the strict change list already answers it.
* refactor(loader): type the volatile comparison against Schemastery's Schema
config/diff.ts narrows the plugin's Standard Schema to Schemastery's own Schema type instead of a hand-written structural interface, which makes vendor/loader a type-only dependent of @deepseek-ai/schemastery. The rescope codemod treats the vendor identifier comparison like schemastery's own source and renames the import through an exact edit.
* fix(loader): address review findings on the volatile commit path
Entry.update only replaces the fiber's pending raw config for a volatile-only change, so a noSave direct update survives a no-op entry update. _commitVolatile logs at debug level when ordinary effective values changed and the ordinary update applies, dispatches loader/volatile-update with a Context receiver like Cordis' own filtered emits, and isolates a throwing listener. Schemastery reports unsupported volatile values as ValidationError with their path and validates a lazy inner once when it is built. The inherited-event catalog gains internal/config and corrected source lines; the Loader spec imports dsh-hmr by package name and covers the new behaviors. Docs record that class-instance ordinary fields always take the remount path and that .default() accepts the raw input type.
Review follow-ups on the refused-creation notice:
- `openWorkspace` raises `createFailed` only while its navigation is
current, so a refusal that lands after a later navigation or owner
disposal stays silent — the gate `initializeDefaultWorkspace` already
uses and what the README states; two service cases pin it.
- `RowActionToast` switches on the closed notice union and ends in
`assertNever`, so an unhandled kind fails to compile instead of
rendering another notice's copy.
- `apps/web/tests/new-session-refused.e2e.ts` drives the composed Web
server with a user preset whose row cannot resolve and compares the
notice's ARIA golden, beside the default-Workspace failure scenario.
- `@throws` on `openWorkspace` covers every failure (catalog
regenerated); `RowToast.createFailed` records why the Host code stays
in the copy; the README states that other failures show their own
message.
An explicit New Session (sidebar and header buttons, the workspace row
button, and the hero workspace pick) whose `session.create` the Host
refuses — for example a default preset whose composition names a
plugin that no longer resolves (`agent-preset/invalid`) — was only
logged with `console.warn`, so the click looked like it did nothing.
`openWorkspace` now shows the failure through the shared Workspace
notice as a `createFailed` toast quoting the Host's stable code and
message on the long hold, then rethrows as before. Startup restoration
does not go through `openWorkspace` and stays console-only.
CSS animations start when their element is inserted, so loaders mounted
at different moments rotated out of step in the sidebar session list.
The ongoing loader now pins its spin and dash animations to document
time zero on mount so every visible loader shares one phase.
* feat(bundle): accept an ordered patch file list in dsh.bundle.patch
`dsh.bundle.patch` now accepts `string | string[]`. A list names patch
files applied in order as one bundle layer; each file's relative plugin
paths still resolve beside that file. `bundlePatchPaths` in dsh-app-boot
is the one resolver from a declaration to absolute paths, and every
reader uses it: profile loading, plugin-manager reconcile and bundle
rows, the client-runtime roster, and the workspace, cordis-config, and
product-isolation gates. `ProfileLayer.patchPath` becomes `patchPaths`.
* fix(bundle): keep declared patch files package-relative in the workspace gate
path.join produced backslash entries on Windows, so the expected files
list did not match package.json files. bundlePatchFiles returns the
validated declaration as written; bundlePatchPaths joins it.
The shell registers two General rows after #4716, but README.md and
README.zh.md still described only Developer tools in three places each.
Align both sides and re-record the bilingual pairing hashes.
Also close the review nits: assert the settings.general.item rows dispose
on unload, give the localized-label cases distinct titles (%s printed the
dictionary object, so both read "[object Object]"), complete the
CurrentVersionRow @param, and note why current-version orders last.
