Integrate the observed master checkpoint 7ab215e23e5d977aae7eb5d4fb91782d39969dbb without rewriting the earlier published checkpoints. Master adds current-directory events, directory-aware consumers, and retained Git worktrees; its old subagent startup paths overlapped the unified activation implementation. Resolve directory selection within managed startup after acquiring parent ownership. Preserve the original Session origin while setting each new local child directory, retain persisted directory state on cold resume, and pass a required absolute cwd to external providers. Keep unified local/external ownership, full completion notices, parked-input host completion, SDK wait/error/shutdown behavior, and ACP cancellation semantics. Retain removal of the old in-process driver and continuation managers. Combine SDK wait with the new directory requests, preserve the new master directory/worktree fixtures, regenerate derived catalogs from the combined sources, and refresh only the four stale prompt/schema sidecars. Preserve every protected historical schema, archived note, catalog-v2 acknowledgement, and recorded predecessor input. Validation: full build; 59 CI static gates; 855 subagent tests with 100% coverage on changed core/external sources; affected consumer suites including 119 repaired-fixture tests; SDK 11 and headless 16 recorded scenarios; two local headless expected cases; six built nested SDK/ACP cases; lint, strict cast inventory, workspace constraints, and whitespace checks. Native Windows worker diagnostics remain additive and require the next CI run to classify the original crash.

Summary
Use the core packages to build or extend an agent that records durable session history, assembles system prompts, exposes tools, selects a default model, and runs model turns. These packages define the shared APIs used by every composition, while executable product assemblies live under packages/bundle. Choose this group when developing agent behavior or replacing one of those capabilities; start with dsh-base when you need the default runnable composition.
Table of Contents
Packages
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
scope/ |
Scoped registration and event routing that isolate one agent's contributions | library — no ctx key |
session/ |
The append-only session event log every agent's history derives from | ctx.sessions |
system-prompt/ |
System-prompt assembly from ordered sections, tool schemas, and variables | ctx.systemPrompt |
tools/ |
The tool registry and guarded execution pipeline the loop dispatches through | ctx.tools |
agent-tool-presentation/ |
Per-agent tool-presentation selector for presets | no ctx key |
agent/ |
The Agent handle plugins program against, plus its live registry and events |
ctx.agents |
agent-default-model/ |
The deployment default model selection entry points apply to fresh agents | ctx.agentDefaultModel |
agent-loop/ |
The default agent driver: creates agents and runs the turn and step lifecycle | ctx.agentLoop |
scope supplies the shared scoping primitive; agent owns the public Agent contract, while agent-loop is its default implementation, so extension plugins depend on agent and the driver stays swappable. agent-default-model owns the deployment selection an entry point applies when a session has none of its own. Runnable compositions live under packages/bundle; this group owns only the swappable spine pieces.
