The persistence seam is now create/open/stat/list returning per-session
SessionHandles (read/append/flush/close); every log read and write flows
through the owning handle. The seam package exports only the service and
handle contracts, consumer-visible errors, and pure durable-data
validation helpers; each backend owns its complete storage runtime, and
the shared contract suites pin equivalent observable behavior. The
backend routes published sessions' live events by id into the active
write handle; agent-loop only acquires, seeds, and closes the handle.
Resume appends interruptedTurnClosers through its write handle;
session-query owns the revision-keyed cold cache. Legacy-only surfaces
are removed in the same swap: locate/readRaw/supportsRawArtifacts, the
legacy event-shape read migration, zstd torn-frame salvage,
DSH_SESSION_JSONL, and hook transcript_path population; a torn final
zstd frame is discarded whole; the session-list cold blank probe returns
on stat metadata (eventCount derived from the last physical row,
sizeBytes). The WebUI ZIP export serializes the logical log from a read
handle, so both backends export identically.

The product model has no cross-process writer exclusion (the coordinator
serializes per-session operations in-process; the README documents one
live writer per session), so the wx-created .lock sibling only guarded
byte-level races while adding two failure modes: a crash leaves a stale
lock that permanently wedges that log's appends/repairs/replacements, and
a post-commit lock cleanup failure makes a committed append look failed,
so the retained write-behind batch retries into duplicate seqs.
Remove withLogLock and keep replaceStored's revision compare-and-swap at
the commit boundary (recheck immediately before the atomic rename).
SessionPersistence.readRaw previously used undefined for two unrelated states: a supported backend could not find the requested session, or the backend had no per-session artifact concept at all. The export endpoint consequently reported an existing SQLite-backed session as HTTP 404, which falsely diagnosed storage capability as session absence.
Make raw-artifact support an explicit backend capability. Unsupported backends now fail their inherited readRaw path loudly and the host answers 501 before reading, while undefined retains the single meaning of an absent artifact on a supporting backend. First-party backends, test providers, generated API catalogs, bilingual persistence docs, and export error contracts now state that distinction; focused tests cover both the 501 and the inherited rejection.
Review round: the JSONL backend now refuses a foreign header version straight
from the raw header line, before validating today's header shape or decoding
any event row, so a structurally different future format reports the upgrade
direction instead of corruption (shared message builder
sessionFormatVersionRefusal). HMR live-prefix adoption runs the unknown-type
guard like the other read paths. The appendCore comment now states why the
unknown-type guard is read-side only, the loadStoredFrom JSDoc and README pin
the seek-vs-sequential refusal-scope divergence, and the generated catalog
preamble lists the ignorable envelope field.
Old runtimes meeting a newer session format now fail loud instead of
misreading: version refusal names the direction (newer: upgrade the
harness; older: no upgrade path) and points at the raw JSONL log, and an
event type outside the generated known vocabulary refuses resume unless
its envelope carries the new ignorable: true marker (default: required,
so a forgotten marker over-refuses instead of silently resuming a gutted
session). gen-persistence-catalog now also emits
KNOWN_SESSION_EVENT_TYPES; SQLite stores the marker in a dedicated
column (SCHEMA_VERSION 15). The versioning design (monotonic integer,
n->n+1 upgrader chain, migrate-on-continue) is recorded in the
session-log-version-mechanism Agent Note.
git mv the 12 packages from session-persistence/, session-projection/,
session-title/, and telemetry/ into one session/ group per the
regrouping RFC; merge the four group READMEs into one bilingual
triplet; rewrite the group segment in tsconfig references (intra-group
references shorten to ../<pkg>), tsconfig.base.json paths/globs,
knip.json keys, vitest include, gate scripts, and authored doc/note
citations; regenerate module graph, doc graphs, catalogs, and the
lockfile importer keys. No npm names change.
Full unit suite: 8779 passed; the 18 reported failures reproduce as
env flakes (ambient-proxy IPv6 tunneling, watched-dir inotify
timeouts under parallel load) — each passes in isolation with
NO_PROXY set, matching their known pre-existing behavior on master.
