 Each `.mcp.json` server becomes one existing `dsh-mcp-client` child. The adapter accepts the common root `{ "mcpServers": ... }`; stdio definitions allow only optional `type: "stdio"`, `command`, `args`, and `env`, while HTTP definitions allow only `type: "http"`, `url`, and `headers`. Exact `${NAME}` process-environment references expand at runtime, after cache preparation; missing names fail Plugin load. HTTP maps to the client's Streamable HTTP transport, and stdio uses the prepared package directory as `cwd`. The existing client alone owns connection attempts, failure logging, remote tool synchronization, tool calls, and disconnects. Consequently an MCP connection failure keeps its established successful-plugin/no-tools behavior and is not reclassified as a repository preparation or Loader failure.

 Two coupled pieces, aligned with the `apps/` assembly tier proposed by the `dsh web` PR (#443):

-**The `dsh` CLI (`apps/cli`, npm name `@deepseek-ai/dsh`).** `apps/*` joins the workspaces as the product-assembly tier over `packages/*` libraries. The bin's dispatch reserves `web` and `-p`/`--prompt` for PR #443 (they exit with a pointer) so the two branches merge as a near-union; everything else runs the default surface: the interactive TUI, booting the shipped `examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml` (or an explicit config argument) with the invoking directory as the workspace. The committed `bin/dsh` launcher resolves the checkout through its own real path and runs the bin **from source** through Node's native TypeScript transform plus the app-owned tsconfig-paths loader, so `ln -sf "$(pwd)/bin/dsh" ~/.local/bin/dsh` installs a command that always executes the current working tree. `pnpm run demo:tui` runs the same entry.
+**The `dsh` CLI (`apps/cli`, npm name `@deepseek-ai/dsh`).** `apps/*` is the product-assembly tier over `packages/*` libraries. One bin dispatches the default interactive TUI, `-p`/`--prompt` headless turns, and the `web` surface. The TUI boots `examples/tui-agent/cordis.yml` (or `--config`) with the invoking directory as the workspace. The committed `bin/dsh` launcher resolves the checkout through its own real path and runs the app with tsx's ESM hook; the [source-launch decision](../architecture/2026-07-29-dsh-source-launch-tsx-esm.md) owns that contract. `pnpm run demo:tui` runs the same entry.

-**Personal config (`dsh-app-boot`).** The personal overlay lives in the Harness home — `$DSH_HOME`, else `~/.dsh` — resolved by the shared [`resolveDshHome`](../architecture/2026-07-24-single-harness-home-resolver.md) (`@deepseek-ai/dsh-paths`), the same single root skills and AGENTS.md resolve against.

The dsh TUI, Web, and headless surfaces consume its two optional files; the demo bins boot their committed trees verbatim:

 - `.env` — loaded after the invoking directory's `.env`; `process.loadEnvFile` never overrides, so precedence is ambient > project `.env` > personal `.env`.
- `config.yaml` — a top-level YAML array of `@cordisjs/plugin-include` `PatchOptions`, parsed with the include's own `!!js` dialect (`loadPersonalPatches`) and passed to `boot()`, which forwards it as the root include's `patches`. Patch semantics match the shipped surface overlays: an id-targeted patch replaces the named entry's whole `config`, `insert` appends entries, and an unmatched id is a silent no-op.
+- `config.yaml` — a top-level YAML array of `@cordisjs/plugin-include` `PatchOptions`, parsed with the include's own `!!js` dialect (`loadPersonalPatches`) and passed to `boot()`, which forwards it as the root include's `patches`.

The [repository Plugin integration](2026-07-30-config-only-repository-plugins.md) uses one shipped row to make an exact GitHub source list a config-only choice.
 - A missing file means no overlay; a present-but-unreadable, unparsable, or non-array file throws at boot (misconfiguration fails loud, never a silent skip).

 The PTY smoke's launcher isolates `$DSH_HOME` to a per-test directory, exactly as it already isolates `DSH_AGENTS_HOME`, so a developer's real personal overlay cannot leak into fixtures; only the dsh CLI reads personal config, so no other test launcher needed changes.

-Hot-reload interplay: the include re-applies its `patches` on every config re-read (the [config hot-reload resilience Agent Note](../bug-fix/2026-07-20-config-hot-reload-resilience.md)), so a live `cordis.yml` edit keeps the personal overlay applied.
+The TUI and Web register the exact personal path through Cordis HMR after boot. Every add, change, or removal transactionally recomposes the full patch list through the launcher's own composition closure, so the fresh personal patches land in the same layer position they booted in. Invalid YAML or a rejected Loader candidate leaves the last good tree active and broadcasts `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, Error)`; the headless surface reads the file once at startup. The Include also re-applies its patches on committed config-file refreshes (the [config hot-reload resilience Agent Note](../bug-fix/2026-07-20-config-hot-reload-resilience.md)).

 ## Alternatives considered

-**A standalone `bin/dsh` wrapper owning the `dsh` name.** Rejected after reading PR #443: that PR establishes `apps/cli` as the `dsh` CLI with subcommand dispatch (`web`, `-p`) and leaves the default slot unclaimed.

 - Because an id-targeted patch replaces the whole `config`, a personal override restates the base fields it keeps and can drift when the base entry changes shape; the loader's entry-not-found/name-mismatch warnings and [`dsh --dump-config`](2026-07-30-dsh-dump-config.md) (which prints the composed tree those patches produce) are the diagnostics.
 - Personal patches resolve ids against the booted file's own tree, so nested-include overlays (Code Mode) are not personalized; live-run parity for those leaves is deferred.
 - `dsh-app-boot` depends on `js-yaml` and imports the include's `!!js` YAML dialect (`entryListSchema`) directly, and, like `apps/cli`, depends on `@deepseek-ai/dsh-paths` for `resolveDshHome`.
- When PR #443 lands, `apps/cli/src/bin.ts`'s dispatch chain and `apps/cli/package.json`'s dependency list conflict textually; both resolve as unions (their `web`/`-p` branches plus our default-TUI branch).

+# Agent Note: Config-only repository Plugins for standalone dsh
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-30-config-only-repository-plugins.zh.md)
+
+## Problem
+
+A standalone `dsh` user has no developer-owned SDK project whose `package.json`, lockfile, and `cordis.yml` can carry an external Plugin dependency. Requiring an install command or another state file would make “use this repository” a multi-step workflow, while loading arbitrary repository code would bypass the restricted [static repository Plugin format](../architecture/2026-07-30-static-repository-plugin-format.md). Long-running TUI and Web processes also need a failed edit to preserve their usable Plugin generation and tell observers why the candidate was rejected.
+
+## Decision
+
+The shipped TUI and Web/headless `cordis.yml` trees contain an empty `repository-plugins` entry. A user changes only `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml`, replacing that entry's config with a `repositories` list. Each item uses `github:owner/repository#<ref>` plus an optional `&path:/.../.dsh-plugin`; omission selects `/.dsh-plugin`. An explicit ref is mandatory, paths are absolute within the repository and end in `.dsh-plugin`, and duplicate normalized specifiers reject before installation. There is no marketplace, discovery index, HTTPS URL vocabulary, or implicit latest generation.
+
+`@deepseek-ai/dsh-repository-plugin` validates and normalizes each source, then resolves it through the generic vendored [`RepositoryCache`](../architecture/2026-07-30-package-manager-native-repository-cache.md). The default cache is `$DSH_HOME/cache/repository-plugins`; `cacheDir` is the explicit deployment override. Bundled pnpm selects the configured repository subpackage, runs its ordinary lifecycle including `prepare`, and atomically publishes the exact specifier. The DSH host imports only the generated `dsh-plugin.mjs` wrapper and mounts it as a child fiber, so skills and MCP retain the owners, failure contracts, and teardown defined by the format package.
+
+## Live update and failure
+
+`dsh-app-boot` mounts the root Include through one helper that retains its exact Loader `Entry`. The TUI and Web register `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml` through Cordis HMR; headless reads the same file at startup without retaining a watcher. A watcher update rebuilds the Include patch list as immutable app-owned patches followed by the newly parsed personal patches, so Web-generated port, session-root, trust, and frontend values survive every personal edit unless a later personal patch deliberately replaces that row.
+
+Cordis serializes and coalesces exact-path changes. Include and Loader reconcile a candidate transactionally: success commits the new source list, while fetch, preparation, wrapper import, format, or child-Plugin failure rejects the candidate and retains or restores the last good tree. HMR normalizes the caught value to `Error`, logs it, and broadcasts the parallel `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, error)` event; observer failures cannot break refresh processing. MCP transport connection failure remains the existing MCP client's contained successful-Plugin/no-tools result and therefore is not reclassified as a config-update failure.
+
+An identical specifier permanently reuses its cache generation. HMR watches configuration, not cached repository code; the user changes the ref, path, or source list to select another generation.
+
+## Trust boundary
+
+Configuring a repository authorizes package-manager lifecycle code from that repository and its dependencies to run with the user's filesystem authority. The pnpm child removes ambient environment variables whose names contain `KEY`, `PASSWORD`, `SECRET`, or `TOKEN`, but this is credential-exposure reduction rather than a sandbox. The fixed runtime wrapper prevents repository-authored Cordis entry points from becoming part of the supported Plugin format; it does not make package preparation untrusted-safe.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+**Require an SDK project dependency.** Rejected for the standalone app path because there is no project manifest to edit. Developer-owned SDK projects keep their native package-manager workflow as a separate capability.
+
+**Add a `dsh plugin install` command and installation database.** Rejected because the personal Loader overlay already owns machine-local composition. A second mutation interface and durable registry would duplicate config identity and rollback.
+
+**Resolve repositories directly in the DSH package.** Rejected because Git transport, GitHub subpackage selection, lifecycle execution, and content storage belong to pnpm and the generic Loader cache, not a DSH-specific adapter.
+
+**Watch cache contents or refresh the same ref automatically.** Rejected because one config value must identify one immutable prepared generation. Background remote resolution would change executable code without a config diff and make rollback depend on mutable remote state.
+
+**Broadcast an `unknown` failure payload.** Rejected at the HMR boundary. JavaScript may throw any value internally, but the public event always receives a normalized `Error`, giving observers one stable contract while retaining the original value as its cause when needed.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- A repository that adds `.dsh-plugin/package.json` can reach standalone users through one personal-config edit without changing its existing skills or `.mcp.json` layout.
+- Long-running apps can add, replace, or remove configured generations without restart; rejected candidates retain the last good runtime and produce one generic Cordis event.
+- First use may require Git/network access and preparation time. Later starts reuse the exact prepared cache; old generations consume disk until a separate cache-management policy exists.
+- Only skills and common MCP definitions are supported. Hooks, commands, agents, apps, arbitrary Cordis code, compatibility shims, OAuth-bearing MCP definitions, and marketplaces remain intentionally absent.
+
+## Testing
+

+# Agent Note: 仅凭配置为独立 dsh 接入仓库插件
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-30-config-only-repository-plugins.md) | 中文
+
+## 问题
+
+独立 `dsh` 用户没有开发者自有的 SDK 项目，无法由其 `package.json`、lockfile 和 `cordis.yml` 承载外部插件依赖。若要求运行安装命令或维护另一份状态文件，「使用这个仓库」就会变成多步骤流程；若加载任意仓库代码，又会绕过受限的[静态仓库插件格式](../architecture/2026-07-30-static-repository-plugin-format.md)。长时间运行的 TUI 和 Web 进程还必须在编辑失败时保留仍可使用的插件版本，并向观察者说明候选配置被拒绝的原因。
+
+## 决策
+
+已交付的 TUI 和 Web／无头 `cordis.yml` 配置树包含一个空的 `repository-plugins` 配置项。用户只需修改 `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml`，用 `repositories` 列表替换该配置项的配置。每一项采用 `github:owner/repository#<ref>`，并可追加 `&path:/.../.dsh-plugin`；省略时选择 `/.dsh-plugin`。必须显式指定 ref；路径是仓库内的绝对路径，并以 `.dsh-plugin` 结尾；重复的规范化说明符在安装前即被拒绝。不提供插件市场、发现索引、HTTPS URL 词汇或隐式的最新版本。
+
+`@deepseek-ai/dsh-repository-plugin` 校验并规范化每个源，再通过 vendor 中的通用 [`RepositoryCache`](../architecture/2026-07-30-package-manager-native-repository-cache.md) 解析。默认缓存位于 `$DSH_HOME/cache/repository-plugins`；`cacheDir` 是显式的部署覆盖项。随应用提供的 pnpm 选择配置的仓库子包（package），运行包括 `prepare` 在内的普通生命周期，并原子发布该精确说明符。DSH 宿主只导入生成的 `dsh-plugin.mjs` 包装模块并将其挂载为子 fiber，因此 skill（技能）与 MCP 仍沿用格式包定义的所有者、失败契约和清理行为。
+
+## 实时更新与失败
+
+`dsh-app-boot` 通过一个辅助函数挂载根 Include，并保留其确切的 Loader `Entry`。TUI 和 Web 通过 Cordis HMR（热模块替换）注册 `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml`；无头界面在启动时读取同一文件，但不保留监视器。监视器更新会重新构建 Include 补丁列表，先放置不可变的应用自有补丁，再放置新解析的个人补丁。因此，Web 生成的端口、会话根目录、信任和前端值会在每次个人编辑后保留，除非后续个人补丁有意替换相应配置项。
+
+Cordis 会串行处理并合并该确切路径上的变更。Include 与 Loader 以事务方式协调候选配置：成功时提交新源列表；拉取、准备、包装模块导入、格式或子插件失败时拒绝候选配置，并保留或恢复最后一个可用树。HMR 会把捕获的值规范化为 `Error`，记录错误，并广播并行的 `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, error)` 事件；观察者失败不会中断刷新处理。MCP 传输连接失败仍沿用现有 MCP 客户端所收束的「插件成功加载但无工具」结果，因此不会被重新分类为配置更新失败。
+
+相同说明符会永久复用同一个缓存版本。HMR 监视配置，而非已缓存的仓库代码；用户必须改变 ref、路径或源列表，才能选择另一个版本。
+
+## 信任边界
+
+配置仓库即授权该仓库及其依赖中的包管理器生命周期代码以用户的文件系统权限运行。pnpm 子进程会移除名称中含有 `KEY`、`PASSWORD`、`SECRET` 或 `TOKEN` 的环境变量，但这只会减少凭据暴露，并非沙箱。固定的运行时包装模块会阻止仓库作者提供的 Cordis 入口成为受支持插件格式的一部分；它无法让包准备过程安全执行不受信任的代码。
+
+## 考虑过的替代方案
+
+**要求声明 SDK 项目依赖。** 独立应用路径没有可编辑的项目 manifest（元数据清单），因此否决。开发者自有的 SDK 项目仍可使用原生包管理器工作流，这是一项独立能力。
+
+**新增 `dsh plugin install` 命令和安装数据库。** 否决，因为个人 Loader 覆盖层已经负责机器本地组合。第二个变更接口和持久注册表会重复配置身份与回滚机制。
+
+**由 DSH 包直接解析仓库。** 否决，因为 Git 传输、GitHub 子包选择、生命周期执行和内容存储属于 pnpm 与通用 Loader 缓存，而非 DSH 专用适配器。
+
+**监视缓存内容，或自动刷新相同 ref。** 否决，因为一个配置值必须标识一个不可变的已准备版本。后台远端解析会在没有配置差异的情况下改变可执行代码，并使回滚依赖可变的远端状态。
+
+**广播 `unknown` 失败载荷。** 在 HMR 边界否决。JavaScript 内部可以抛出任意值，但公开事件始终接收规范化的 `Error`，从而为观察者提供稳定契约，并在需要时把原始值保留为错误原因。
+
+## 后果
+
+- 添加 `.dsh-plugin/package.json` 的仓库只需一次个人配置编辑即可供独立用户使用，无需改变现有 skill 或 `.mcp.json` 布局。
+- 长时间运行的应用无需重启即可新增、替换或移除已配置版本；被拒绝的候选配置会保留最后一个可用运行时，并产生一个通用 Cordis 事件。
+- 首次使用可能需要 Git／网络访问和准备时间。后续启动会复用这份精确的已准备缓存；在另行制定缓存管理政策之前，旧版本会持续占用磁盘空间。
+- 仅支持 skill 和通用 MCP 定义。钩子、命令、agent（智能体）、应用、任意 Cordis 代码、兼容 shim、带 OAuth 的 MCP 定义和插件市场均有意不提供。
+
+## 测试
+
+仓库包测试固定源规范化、默认和嵌套 `.dsh-plugin` 路径、缓存根解析、重复项拒绝、已准备包装模块加载及资源释放。App-boot 测试通过真实 HMR／Include／Loader 路径驱动确切路径的新增、两类失败、恢复、移除、失败事件及生成补丁保留。一个无密钥 PTY 冒烟测试仅通过个人配置启动已交付的 `dsh` 组合，并从预置的不可变缓存版本中调用一个 skill。

 - resumes a persisted session with `dsh --resume <session-id>` and, when the Node host exposes `process.execve`, supplies the TUI's in-place handoff host: after selector preflight and current-session flush, the host disposes the app and replaces the process with a normalized resume invocation; runtimes without process replacement leave the session running and say so. This CLI owns session identity and the exit line rather than the config: it mints or selects the `main` session id and provides it, plus the exact command that reproduces this invocation, on the boot context ([`MAIN_SESSION_ID_KEY`](../../packages/ui/tui/README.md) and `TUI_GOODBYE_MESSAGE_KEY`). No `cordis.yml` key can drop resume, and a missing or unreadable id fails loud instead of creating a fresh session;
 - treats the **invoking directory** as the workspace — sessions, relative paths, and workspace instructions resolve from the cwd (`dsh meta` is the sole exception, below);
 - tells the agent where its own source lives: after boot it adds a prompt section naming this harness checkout, resolved from the launcher's real path so it holds under a PATH symlink and an arbitrary cwd, so the self-referential `cordis` toolset can read and modify it;
- applies the personal overlay from `~/.dsh` (see [app-boot's Personal config](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md#personal-config)): `config.yaml` patches the booted tree, while `.env` there is the credential provider's own store (never hoisted into the environment, so keys stay rotatable).

The official DeepSeek icon, responsive terminal rasters, all-locale Chinese copy, and notice version are static local owners; the overlay never writes a session event or model context.
 - registers bare `/compact`: while the agent is idle, it summarizes useful older history even below automatic pressure, rejects arguments, and reports success only after the standalone replacement bracket is durable. A prompt submitted during compaction keeps its queue identity and starts after that checkpoint; injected context remains visible.

@@ -25,6 +25,18 @@ The Web and headless surfaces boot `base.cordis.yml` plus `web.cordis.yml`, then

 The shared composition defaults new TUI, Web, and headless sessions to the `workspace-write` permission preset (`workspace-write` file mode plus `ask` approval policy). Sandbox-enforced bash and filesystem mutations may write only under the session workspace and platform temporary roots; reads, network access, and process visibility are not confined. The browser answers one-shot approval requests and exposes the Access picker; the TUI exposes `/permission`, but has no approval-request answerer, so an automatic wider retry there fails closed until the user deliberately changes the session preset. `DSH_PERMISSION_MODE` changes the process fallback, while a stored General-settings Permission value applies to later sessions without changing an open one.

+All three surfaces consume `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml`; the TUI and Web apply valid edits live, while one-shot headless runs read it at startup. The shipped trees include an empty `repository-plugins` row, so a standalone user can add prepared GitHub Plugins without an SDK project or install command:
+
+```yaml
+- id: repository-plugins
+  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-repository-plugin'
+  config:
+    repositories:
+      - 'github:PolyArch/humanize#<commit>'
+```
+
+The repository must contain a prepared `.dsh-plugin` package; the [repository Plugin contract](../../packages/cordis/repository-plugin/README.md#standalone-app-configuration) documents authoring, nested Plugin paths, the immutable cache, trust boundary, and failure semantics. A failed live edit keeps the last good tree and emits Cordis's `hmr/config-update-failed` event.
+
 The shipped TUI and Web compositions register the native DeepSeek adapter plus pi-ai OpenAI and Anthropic profiles. Credentials and endpoint overrides come from the provider-standard `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` / `DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL`, `OPENAI_API_KEY` / `OPENAI_BASE_URL`, and `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` / `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` pairs in the boot's layered environment.

 Every surface also registers `web_search` and only `web_search`. Search uses DeepSeek's Anthropic-compatible Messages endpoint, resolves the same `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` reference for every call, and accepts the separate `DEEPSEEK_SEARCH_BASE_URL` endpoint override; each search is an auxiliary model request with its own latency and token cost. `web_fetch` remains disabled and the composition mounts no default fetch provider, so deployments that need arbitrary page retrieval must opt in through an overlay. The deployment decision and its security boundary live in the [default Web search Agent Note](../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-31-web-default-search.md).

 - 将 **调用目录** 视为 workspace：会话、相对路径和 workspace 指令都从 cwd 解析（`dsh meta` 是唯一例外，见下文）；
 - 告知 agent 自身源码所在位置：启动后添加一个命名此 harness checkout 的提示词段。该路径从启动器的真实路径解析，因此在 PATH 符号链接和任意 cwd 下仍然有效，使自指的 `cordis` 工具集可以读取并修改它；
- 应用 `~/.dsh` 中的个人覆盖（参见 [app-boot 的个人配置](../../packages/ui/app-boot/README.md#personal-config)）：`config.yaml` 修补已启动的树，而那里的 `.env` 是凭据 provider 自己的存储（绝不会被提升进环境，因此密钥始终可轮换）。环境优先级为环境中已有的值 > 项目 `.env`。

@@ -28,6 +28,23 @@ Place an ordinary package in the repository's `.dsh-plugin` directory:

 `dsh.skills` is an optional array of local skill roots. `dsh.mcpServers` is an optional path to one `.mcp.json`; at least one field is required. Paths are relative to `.dsh-plugin`, must stay under its parent source directory, and may therefore refer to existing repository assets such as `../skills`. A repository containing several Plugins gives each one its own `.dsh-plugin` package under a different selectable subdirectory.

+## Standalone app configuration
+
+The shipped `dsh` TUI, Web, and headless trees contain an empty `repository-plugins` row. A standalone user enables exact GitHub generations by replacing that row's config in `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml` (default `~/.dsh/config.yaml`):
+
+```yaml
+- id: repository-plugins
+  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-repository-plugin'
+  config:
+    repositories:
+      - 'github:PolyArch/humanize#<commit>'
+      - 'github:owner/repository#<ref>&path:/plugins/one/.dsh-plugin'
+```
+
+Each source must use `github:owner/repository#<ref>`. Omitting `&path:` selects `/.dsh-plugin`; an explicit path is absolute within the repository and must end in `.dsh-plugin`. A commit ref gives the clearest immutable identity, while tags and branches remain accepted exact config values. `cacheDir` may override the default `$DSH_HOME/cache/repository-plugins` cache root.
+
+The TUI and Web watch `config.yaml` through Cordis HMR. A valid source-list change installs and swaps the complete repository Plugin generation; a failed fetch, prepare, import, or Plugin application keeps the last good tree and broadcasts `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, error)`. Headless runs consume the file only at startup. An identical source string permanently reuses its prepared cache entry, so selecting changed code requires a ref, path, or other source-config change. App integration rationale: [config-only repository Plugins Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-30-config-only-repository-plugins.md).
+
 ## Preparation

 `dsh-plugin-prepare` validates `package.json#dsh`, verifies skill-root types, parses the MCP file, copies assets under `dsh-plugin-assets`, and writes `dsh-plugin.mjs`. The wrapper contains only the normalized static manifest and fixed code that looks up the `dsh-repository-plugin` Loader builtin. It neither discovers nor compiles repository JavaScript, and the runtime never imports another repository entry point.
@@ -28,6 +28,23 @@

 `dsh.skills` 是可选的本地 skill 根数组。`dsh.mcpServers` 是指向一个 `.mcp.json` 的可选路径；两者至少声明一个。路径相对于 `.dsh-plugin`，必须留在其父级源码目录下，因此可以引用 `../skills` 等仓库现有资源。一个仓库可以在不同的可选择子目录下放置多个各自独立的 `.dsh-plugin` package。

+## 独立应用配置
+
+已交付的 `dsh` TUI、Web 和无头配置树包含一个空的 `repository-plugins` 配置项。独立用户只需在 `$DSH_HOME/config.yaml`（默认 `~/.dsh/config.yaml`）中替换该配置项的配置，即可启用精确指定的 GitHub generation：
+
+```yaml
+- id: repository-plugins
+  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-repository-plugin'
+  config:
+    repositories:
+      - 'github:PolyArch/humanize#<commit>'
+      - 'github:owner/repository#<ref>&path:/plugins/one/.dsh-plugin'
+```
+
+每个源都必须采用 `github:owner/repository#<ref>`。省略 `&path:` 时选择 `/.dsh-plugin`；显式路径是仓库内的绝对路径，并且必须以 `.dsh-plugin` 结尾。commit ref 提供最清晰的不可变身份；tag 和 branch 仍可作为显式配置值使用。`cacheDir` 可覆盖默认缓存根 `$DSH_HOME/cache/repository-plugins`。
+
+TUI 和 Web 通过 Cordis HMR（热模块替换）监视 `config.yaml`。有效的源列表变更会安装并替换整套仓库插件 generation；拉取、准备、导入或插件应用失败时，最后一个可用树保持运行，并广播 `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, error)`。无头运行只在启动时使用该文件。相同的源字符串会永久复用其已准备缓存条目，因此必须改变 ref、路径或其他源配置，才能选择发生变化的代码。应用集成依据见[仅凭配置接入仓库插件的 Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-30-config-only-repository-plugins.md)。
+
 ## 准备阶段

 `dsh-plugin-prepare` 校验 `package.json#dsh`、确认 skill 根类型、解析 MCP 文件、把资源复制到 `dsh-plugin-assets`，并写入 `dsh-plugin.mjs`。包装模块只包含规范化后的静态 manifest（元数据清单），以及查找 `dsh-repository-plugin` Loader builtin 的固定代码；它不会发现或编译仓库 JavaScript，运行时也不会导入仓库的其他入口。

+A developer's machine-local preferences live outside every repository in the Harness home (default `~/.dsh`, overridable via `$DSH_HOME`; the single root [`resolveDshHome`](../../util/paths/README.md) resolves), consumed by the `dsh` CLI's TUI, Web, and headless surfaces ([`apps/cli`](../../../apps/cli/README.md)); the demo bins boot their committed trees verbatim. Two optional files:

 - **`.env`** — the credential store of [`dsh-credentials-local`](../../credentials/credentials-local/README.md), read by that provider alone. No surface hoists it into `process.env`: doing so would make every stored key look like a read-only launch override on the next run, blocking rotation from the TUI and the web page. The environment layers are the ambient one and the invoking directory's `.env` (loaded by the bin; `process.loadEnvFile` never overrides), and a composition without the credential provider keeps resolving keys from those alone.
 - **`config.yaml`** — loader overlay patches applied over the shipped default config, with the same semantics as the shipped surface overlays: an id-targeted patch replaces the named entry's whole `config` (restate unchanged fields), `insert` adds entries, and `!!js` expressions interpolate at mount. A patch naming an entry id absent from the booted tree is a silent no-op. An empty or comments-only file throws (it parses to nothing, not to a list); disable the overlay with `[]` or by deleting the file.

+The TUI and Web keep `config.yaml` live through `watchPersonalPatches`; one-shot headless runs read only the startup value. The watcher targets the exact personal path even when the file or immediate parent does not exist, serializes bursts, and recomposes the personal patches inside the caller's layer order (surface overlay below, app-generated patches above). A rejected read, parse, or Loader candidate leaves the last good tree running and the HMR service broadcasts `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, Error)` after logging it; observer failures are contained. Disposing the context closes the watcher and drains an active refresh.

 Subprocess test launchers point `DSH_HOME` at an isolated per-test directory so a developer's personal overlay can never leak into fixtures.

 - **`.env`**：[`dsh-credentials-local`](../../credentials/credentials-local/README.md) 的凭据存储，只由该 provider 读取。没有任何表层会把它提升进 `process.env`：那样做会让每个已存密钥在下次运行时看起来都像只读的启动时覆盖，从而阻断从 TUI 与 Web 页面轮换密钥。环境层次由环境中的值与调用目录的 `.env` 构成（由 bin 加载；`process.loadEnvFile` 从不覆盖已有值），没有凭据 provider 的组合仍然只从这两者解析密钥。
 - **`config.yaml`**：在发布的默认配置上应用 Loader overlay patch，语义与交付的 surface overlay 相同：按 id 定位的 patch 会替换对应条目的整个 `config`（未改字段也要重述），`insert` 会添加条目，`!!js` 表达式则在挂载时插值。如果 patch 指定的条目 id 不在已启动树中，则静默不执行任何操作。空文件或仅含注释的文件会抛出异常（其解析结果为空，而不是列表）；如需禁用 overlay，请使用 `[]` 或删除该文件。

+TUI 和 Web 会持续应用 `config.yaml` 的变更，具体由 `watchPersonalPatches` 负责；一次性无头运行只读取启动时的值。即使该文件或其直接父目录不存在，watcher 仍会监视确切的个人配置路径；它会串行处理突发变更，并按调用方的层次顺序重新组合个人 patch（surface overlay 在下、应用生成的 patch 在上）。读取失败、解析失败或 Loader 候选被拒时，最后一个可用树会继续运行；HMR 服务记录错误后广播 `hmr/config-update-failed(filename, Error)`，并隔离 observer 失败。上下文 dispose 时会关闭 watcher，并等待进行中的刷新结束。

 子进程测试 launcher 会把 `DSH_HOME` 指向逐测试隔离的目录，确保开发者的个人 overlay 不会泄漏到 fixture（测试前置数据）中。
