+# Agent Note: Web client Agent-scope parity model and the provisioning channel (agents/scope / blank reuse / provide)
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-25-web-client-session-scope-and-provide-channel.zh.md)
+
+> Scope: the client Agent scope (actx) and targeted events, the client/host materialization parity model, the blank-session bit and reuse (`connectWorkspace`), the per-session provisioning channel (`sessions.provide`), the read-only queue mirror (`session/queued`), and the host wire smalls that carry these capabilities (the summary `blank` column, the `host/session-added` frame field, and the `host/commands-changed` frame). The input state machine and the slash pipeline live in the [input machine note](2026-07-25-web-input-machine-and-slash-pipeline.md); the command business surfaces live in the [command surfaces note](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md).
+
+## Problem
+
+The web client had a single global session surface: slots all rendered from the root context, so plugins had no notion of "which agent/session is current"; the draft's true copy was buried inside the Session object, leaving any plugin that wanted to participate in input with nowhere to hook in. To support a command/input system, the platform layer first had to answer:
+
+- Who owns session interaction state (menus, popups, drafts, in-flight requests), and how two sessions are structurally isolated;
+- What a "new session" is before the host entity exists — whether the client must forge an independent life for it;
+- How session-scope components fetch their own session data, instead of props passed down layer by layer;
+- What a user-abandoned new session leaves behind on the host side, and who collects it.
+
+Hard constraints: the host is the single source of truth; every registration goes through a `ctx.effect` disposer; the scope mechanism matches the host's Agent scope architecture; model-visible ⟺ already in the session log.
+
+## Decision
+
+### The parity model: client and host share one root state axis
+
+Host-side `session.create(workspaceId)` produces Session + Agent + cwd in one piece (an atomic bundle, never split); the client side is the mirror of that birth — the instant a session row enters the list mirror, the client mints its Agent scope (actx + provide + the full input surface mounted):
+
+- Session identity is the host's true form from birth: the sessionId arrives via the `session.create` response / the `host/session-added` frame, and every client-side address (the scope tag, slot store keys, RPC addressing) uses that same id.
+- The materialization moment = the instant the user picks a Workspace (cwd settled): the client calls `session.create({workspaceId})` on the spot and receives the complete entity.
+- "New Session with no workspace picked" is a **pure view state** (a navigation position) corresponding to no session/scope entity; until the pick, the composer is locked whole (no slash, no plain text).
+- A "blank session" is just an ordinary materialized session whose log is still empty; to every Agent-scope plugin on the host (goal/plan/skill/…) it is indistinguishable from any session, so slash/plan are all naturally live.
+
+### Agent scope: the actx is the sole session carrier in the client-side cordis world
+
+The runtime's `agents/scope.ts` matches the host's `dsh-scope` at the mechanism layer (fiber + tag + filter; no value import: the host package carries the scoped-events `Events` merge, which would collide with the Context merge inside the client program):
+
+- `createScope(ctx, key)`: a no-op plugin fiber plus `extend({[kScope]: key, [Context.filter]: …})` — the filter lives directly on the actx: untagged listeners receive globally, tagged ones receive only their own scope.
+- Dispatch is the cordis primitives with thisArg = the actx itself: `actx.bail(actx, event, req)` / `actx.emit(actx, event, payload)`.
+- `Session.bindScope(actx)`: paired exactly once when resolve mints the scope (rebinding throws; dropScope unbinds), mirroring the host's `Agent.loopCtx` — the Session uses it to dispatch its own scoped events. The reverse actx→Session direction is one hop through `sessions.sessionOf(actx)` (mirroring host plugins' `agent.session` usage).
+
+Three deliberate divergences from the host dsh-scope:
+
+- The filter lives on the actx itself rather than a separate carrier: the host wrapper layer guards the business Agent subject against drifting from the scope key (host events inject the Agent itself as the first argument), while client event payloads carry only an id — there is no subject to protect.
+- Keys compare by branded `SessionId` value rather than object identity: on the host, agent.id === session id (1:1 on the same axis), agent identity directly reuses the `SessionId` brand, and a client scope's identity is its wire id.
+- The client scope is an **Agent identity** scope, not a live-object scope: during a cold session the host Agent object is already disposed while the client actx stays alive (in view) — the identity axis is in strict parity while object hot/cold is deliberately unsynchronized.
+
+id→ctx handoff is allowed in only three kinds of places (business providers never hand off):
+
+- Slot inject factories: the ctx never enters the render layer; the identity the slot framework hands a component is the sessionId, exchanged back into objects/controllers through service maps.
+- Root coordination services self-addressing: from a projection's sessionId back to the actx via `sessions.scope(id)`.
+- Root untagged listeners: looking up their own store by the payload's sessionId.
+
+### Scope lifecycle: anchored to the list mirror — birth is entering view, death is prune
+
+Session instances share the scope's lifecycle; liveness eligibility = host-listed (one criterion, shared by mint and prune):
+
+- Birth = a session row entering client view (the list baseline pull / the local `create()` echo / the `host/session-added` frame); a lazy first resolve mints the scope (resolution is a pure function, render-safe).
+- One prune tears down three things together: the Session instance, the scope fiber (cascading through every consumer hung on the actx), and the session-keyed slot store. The staged session (= `list.current`) is the exception: removed while still on stage, it keeps a frozen read-only view, torn down only once the stage moves away.
+- Reopening = lazily rebuilding the instance + `open()` pulling history (the host session log is the durable truth).
+- Remaining TODO: approval/question frames never enter history and cannot be recovered across a prune (the manager-level pendingBuffers cover only the never-instantiated window).
+
+### The blank bit: the empty session's visible projection, conversion, and reuse
+
+A session "materialized but with no first prompt" is governed by the summary-derived bit `blank` (a derived column, not a header field; SessionHeader stays immutable):
+
+- The host criterion: `session.events.length === 0` (zero log events = no user message yet). A live session reads `summarize()` straight from memory; a cold session is always `false` — the lazy-create contract guarantees a never-appended session never enters `persistence.list()` at all (both the JSONL and SQLite backends are verified truly lazy), so blank never touches disk.
+- The wire carries it in two places: the required `SessionSummary.blank` column, and the required `blank` field on the `host/session-added` frame (always true at creation, letting other tabs enter the same blank-session state into their mirrors).
+- The client mirror only lowers, never raises (monotonic), flipped from three sources, all reusing existing wire signals:
+  - The sender's own tab: the **successful response** to the first `prompt()` flips false (acceptance proves the user/message is already in the host log — this flip is confirmation, not optimism; `onEngaged` synchronously updates the list mirror, converting the current `New Session` row in place to an ordinary title, adding no list row). A rejected first prompt keeps the session blank: aligned with host authority, still shown as `New Session`, keeping its connectWorkspace reuse eligibility.
+  - Other tabs: the `host/session-status (running:true)` frame flips it — a blank session never runs, so the first running necessarily means no longer blank;
+  - Reconnect alignment: `session.list`'s summary.blank is authoritative, so a tab that missed frames aligns naturally on its next pull; a stale blank:true can never mark a converted session back to blank.
+- List discipline: the store retains every row; the Workspace browser's grouping, flat view, search, and counts share one visible projection — every non-blank session shows, while blank sessions show only the one with `session.id === sessions.current`, its title forced to `New Session`. After a Workspace switch, the old blank entity stays in the mirror but is hidden from the list while the target Workspace's current blank shows; the user-visible surface therefore holds at most one blank row globally.
+- The residue ledger takes zero GC: after a refresh, blank sessions come back with the bit intact and are reused on the next same-workspace connect, so the ordinary single-tab path keeps at most one per workspace; after a host restart, blanks leave no disk trace and simply evaporate; the extra empty shells from multi-tab races only become non-current hidden rows, digested by later reuse, with no coordination.
+
+### connectWorkspace: the sole entry point of New Session
+
+`workspaces.connectWorkspace(workspaceId): Promise<SessionId>` (owned by WorkspacesService — it holds both the workspace canonical path and the sessions reference):
+
+- The reuse arm: the list mirror is searched for `blank && cwd == workspace.path` (direct equality on the host realpath canonical form); a hit returns that id directly, creating nothing.
+- The create arm: on a miss, `session.create({workspaceId})` returns the new id.
+- An unknown workspaceId fails loud (never silently creating somewhere else).
+- The resolution guarantee (one contract for both arms): when the promise resolves, the returned id is already in the list store and `sessions.binding(id)` resolves synchronously — `SessionsService.create` projects the list synchronously after RPC success before resolving, so a draft mover can write text into the new scope's machine before open, without waiting for a notifier flush.
+- The caller takes the id and does its own `sessions.open`; sending the first prompt is an ordinary `session.prompt` — the session already exists, a failure is an ordinary prompt failure, the draft text is still in the machine, and a retry is simply sending again.
+- The global New Session button defaults to `recentWorkspaceId`: first comparing each Workspace's newest Session `updatedAt`, falling back to the Workspace `createdAt` when it has no Sessions, and keeping host order on ties; only with no Workspace at all does it `sessions.clear()` into the no-session view. Create actions inside a Workspace group still hit that Workspace explicitly.
+- At startup the runtime subscribes to the first complete baseline: a successfully restored current session is kept in place; otherwise it automatically calls `connectWorkspace(recentWorkspaceId)` and opens the returned blank session. The policy settles only once; a later user-initiated clear is never overridden by auto-selection again, and a connect failure waits for the next baseline projection to retry.
+- Re-picking the Workspace in the blank Hero also goes through `connectWorkspace`; when the target id differs from the current one, the current input machine's non-empty draft moves to the target scope first, then `sessions.open(nextId)`. The old blank entity is not deleted — it merely leaves the list by no longer being current.
+
+### Per-session provisioning: the `sessions.provide` standard-kit channel
+
+The sole provisioning path by which session slot components fetch their own session data. Plugins declare a fixed key map through the static descriptor `sessions.provide({hooks, props, resolve})` (a duplicate key throws at registration); `resolve(binding)` materializes values for a specific session and tears them down with the scope. Web-react's `standardKit` single loop binds the hooks compartment into `use<Name>` selector hooks (`observableHook`→uSES, anti-tearing) and passes the props compartment through as-is.
+
+Slot scope is the closed set `root | session-maybe | session`:
+
+- `root` receives only the global standard kit, with no session identity or provisioning.
+- `session-maybe` follows the current session, but the component instance does not change key when the id appears, disappears, or changes; with no session, `sessionId`, the results of `useSession`/`useInput`, and `inputActions` may all be absent. The unkeyed root `SessionMaybeProvider` drives these updates, while `SessionMaybeProvideInfo` uses the static key map to retain the complete hook/prop shape even with no session.
+- `session` guarantees that `sessionId`, every hook source, and every prop exist; each strict entry's error boundary is keyed by `sessionId`, so switching sessions recreates that entry and its session store.
+
+`conversation` is the resident `session-maybe` shell: `ConversationRoot`, HeroShell, the Workspace picker, the composer stack, and the overlay chain's fallback frame retain their React instances across the no-session → blank-session switch; `conversation.session` carries only the strict-session header/view, while the composer and every input slot also stay strict `session`. With no session, the composer stack places the presentation-only `DisabledInputBar` directly; once a session appears, the input body is swapped for the strictly bound InputBar; the textarea may be rebuilt, while the Hero and the layout skeleton are not. The blank → engaging/active transition stays inside the same strict-session subtree, and the InputBar is never rebuilt on a phase flip.
+
+- The runtime's first built-in entry: the `'session'` hook — `useSession` itself rides the same mechanism, no special-casing.
+- Concurrent discipline: the render plane reads only from the hooks compartment (uSES consistency guarantee); props-compartment callbacks are used only in event-handler space; descriptor resolution is render-safe (idempotent caching, with prune reaping residue from abandoned renders).
+- Third-party components take zero value dependencies; types are a one-line type-only import (declaration merging into `SessionStandardProps` / `SessionMaybeStandardProps`).
+
+### The read-only queue mirror
+
+- The MuxFrame `session/queued`: the Session holds a read-only inbox mirror (previews truncated; steering retired by source match); queue frames never enter history — pure stream state, cleared on reconnect and refilled from the new baseline; the never-instantiated window is buffered and replayed through the manager pendingBuffers.
+- Queue semantics: running does not lock input; ordinary messages queue through `session.prompt {mode:'queue'}`, and commands never queue.
+
+### Host wire smalls
+
+- The summary `blank` column and the `host/session-added` frame's `blank` field (see the blank bit above).
+- The SSE frame `host/commands-changed` (a pure invalidation signal); the client routes it into the typed events `commands/changed` and `connection/reset` (broadcast after each connection generation is established; wire-derived caches uniformly treat prior state as stale).
+- `command.list/execute` and `skill.list` are uniformly single-addressed by `sessionId` (a session always has an Agent; `agentFor`'s resume semantics come ready-made); the command-surface narrative lives in the [command surfaces note](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md).
+- The `session.create` request shape: workspaceId/cwd as either-or, plus an optional caller-preallocated sessionId (a same-id same-cwd retry is idempotent; a different cwd reports `session-conflict`).
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+| Rejected | One-line reason |
+|---|---|
+| A client-local Intent + materialize (published CAS / the pendingPrompt attach transaction / the before-create chain) | The client is forced to simulate the first half-life the host lacks, breeding a pile of state machinery — published CAS, the attach transaction, partial publication |
+| Host-reserved IDs (a draft Map) | The host merely acknowledges a number; the state machine stays on the client untouched |
+| A host draft Session (a Session without an Agent) | Every host surface that looks up the Agent must fork for drafts; core would need an attachAgent seam plus late-written header cwd |
+| Binding an Agent before cwd (ungrouped) | Overturns the readonly header.cwd "created in" invariant, plus the launch-dir side-effect product trap |
+| Passing session context down through React Context | Plugins should hold one mental model across host and client; the scope mechanism is isomorphic to the host dsh-scope |
+| A `scopeTarget` carrier + fused dispatcher (mirroring the host `agentEvents`) | The host wrapper layer guards the business Agent subject against drifting from the scope key; client events have no subject to guard — the filter on the actx plus cordis primitives covers every need |
+| Sessions not holding a ctx (a cordis-free object layer) | A red line born only so the filtering unit tests avoid importing cordis, at the cost of two-hop contribute callbacks plus mutable public fields; the host Agent already holds loopCtx |
+| Resident Session instances (resident-instance) | The host session log is the durable truth; residency is mere identity convenience, and its misalignment with the scope lifecycle is a source of complexity |
+| Components receiving wiring-callback bundles (two-layer inject→props pass-down) | The standard-kit channel lets components fetch their own; the public surface converges to hooks + stable props |
+| Swapping the no-session Hero view for the entire session Conversation | Even with the outer layout unchanged, the Hero, picker, and composer subtrees would remount together, making the whole UI region jump |
+| Making InputBar itself `session-maybe` | The input state machine, keyboard command surface, and actions would all have to accept absent values; replacing only the disabled input body keeps optionality at the shell boundary |
+| A dedicated conversion frame | `session-status(running:true)` semantically implies conversion (a blank session never runs); adding a frame buys zero information for one more wire type |
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Plugins gain session context isomorphic to the host's: per-session state hangs on the actx and mounts/tears down in one piece with the scope fiber, making leaks structurally impossible; two-session isolation is structurally guaranteed by the scope filter.
+- The client object layer converges to a wire mirror: session identity, lifecycle, and capability adjudication all defer to the host entity — the input system (the next layer) always faces a session with a real Agent, and providers like slash/skill uniformly address by sessionId directly.
+- Blank-session governance takes zero dedicated mechanisms: state rides one derived bit, visibility rides the unified list projection (only the current blank shows, as `New Session`), reclamation rides lazy persistence's existing contract (evaporation on restart), and the ordinary ceiling rides same-Workspace reuse.
+- The cost: the id→ctx handoff discipline and provide's Concurrent discipline are conventions rather than type-enforced, pinned by review and tests; fully disabled input while no workspace is picked is an experience cost the product surface accepts (the price of the single state axis).
+- Known gaps: approval/question recovery across prune (TODO); model selection returns in live-mutation shape (the host `selectModel` trio is ready-made, awaiting its own branch).

+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-25-web-client-session-scope-and-provide-channel.md) | 中文
+
+> 范围：client Agent scope（actx）与定向事件、client/host 实体化对等模型、空会话 blank 位与复用（`connectWorkspace`）、per-session 供数通道（`sessions.provide`）、队列只读镜像（`session/queued`），以及承载这些能力的 host wire 小件（summary `blank` 列、`host/session-added` 帧字段、`host/commands-changed` 帧）。输入状态机与 slash 管线见[输入状态机 note](2026-07-25-web-input-machine-and-slash-pipeline.md)；命令业务面见[命令业务面 note](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md)。
+
+## 问题
+
+web client 只有一张全局会话面：slot 全部从根 context 渲染，插件拿不到「当前是哪个 agent/session」的语境；draft 真身埋在 Session 对象里，任何要参与输入的插件都无处下手。要支撑命令/输入体系，平台层必须先回答：
+
+- 会话交互态（菜单、popup、草稿、在途请求）归谁持有，双会话如何结构性隔离；
+- 「新会话」在 host 实体存在之前是什么——client 要不要为它造一段独立生命；
+- session-scope 组件如何「自己拿会话数据」，而不是层层下传 props；
+- 用户放弃的新会话在 host 侧留下什么，谁来收。
+
+硬约束：host 是唯一真源；一切注册走 `ctx.effect` disposer；scope 机制与 host 的 Agent scope 架构一致；模型可见 ⟺ 已入 session log。
+
+## 决策
+
+### 对等模型：client 与 host 同一根状态轴
+
+host 侧 `session.create(workspaceId)` 一体产出 Session + Agent + cwd（原子大礼包，不拆）；client 侧就是这次出生的镜像——会话行进入 list mirror 的瞬间，client 为它铸 Agent scope（actx + provide + 输入面全套挂上）：
+
+- 会话身份自出生即为 host 真身：sessionId 由 `session.create` 响应 / `host/session-added` 帧带来，client 侧一切寻址（scope tag、slot store 键、RPC 地址）用的都是同一个 id。
+- 实体化时点 = 用户选定 Workspace（cwd 确定）的瞬间：client 当场调 `session.create({workspaceId})`，拿到完整实体。
+- 「New Session 且未选 workspace」是**纯视图态**（一个导航位置），不对应任何 session/scope 实体；选定之前 composer 整体锁死（无 slash、无纯文本）。
+- 「空会话」就是一个日志还空着的普通实体化会话；对 host 上所有 Agent-scope 插件（goal/plan/skill/…）它与任何会话无异，slash/plan 天然全活。
+
+### Agent scope：actx 是 client 侧 cordis 世界的唯一会话载体
+
+runtime `agents/scope.ts` 与 host `dsh-scope` 机制层一致（fiber + tag + filter 过滤；不 value-import：host 包携带 scoped-events 的 `Events` merge，进 client program 撞 Context merge）：
+
+- `createScope(ctx, key)`：no-op plugin fiber + `extend({[kScope]: key, [Context.filter]: …})`——filter 直接住 actx：untagged listener 全局可收，tagged 只收本 scope。
+- 派发就是 cordis 原语，thisArg = actx 本身：`actx.bail(actx, event, req)` / `actx.emit(actx, event, payload)`。
+- `Session.bindScope(actx)`：resolve 铸 scope 时单次配对（重复绑 throw；dropScope unbind），镜像 host `Agent.loopCtx`——Session 用它自行派发 scoped 事件。actx→Session 反向走 `sessions.sessionOf(actx)` 一跳（镜像 host 插件 `agent.session` 用法）。
+
+与 host dsh-scope 的有意分歧三条：
+
+- filter 住 actx 自身而非独立 carrier：host 包装层护的是「业务 Agent subject 与 scope key 不漂移」（host 事件首参注入 Agent 本体），client 事件 payload 只带 id、无 subject 可护。
+- key 用品牌 `SessionId` 值比较而非对象身份：host 里 agent.id === session id（1:1 同轴），agent 身份直接复用 `SessionId` 品牌，client scope 的身份即 wire id。
+- client 是 **Agent 身份** scope 而非活对象 scope：cold 会话期 host Agent 对象已 dispose 而 client actx 存活（视野内）——身份轴严格对等、对象冷热有意不同步。
+
+id→ctx 换乘只许三类位置（业务 provider 永不换乘）：
+
+- slot inject 工厂：ctx 不进渲染层，slot 框架交给组件的身份就是 sessionId，经服务 map 换回对象/controller。
+- root 协调服务自寻址：从投影的 sessionId 经 `sessions.scope(id)` 找回 actx。
+- root untagged listener：按 payload 的 sessionId 查自有 store。
+
+### scope 生命周期：挂靠 list mirror，出生即视野、死亡即 prune
+
+Session 实例与 scope 同生命周期，存活资格 = host listed（一个判据，mint 与 prune 共用）：
+
+- 出生 = 会话行进入 client 视野（list 基线拉取 / `create()` 本地回声 / `host/session-added` 帧），lazy 首次 resolve 铸 scope（resolution 纯函数、渲染安全）。
+- prune 一次同拆三样：Session 实例、scope fiber（级联挂在 actx 上的一切消费者）、session-keyed slot store。staged session（= `list.current`）例外：被移除仍在台上时保留冻结只读视图，stage 移走才拆。
+- 重开 = lazy 重建实例 + `open()` 拉 history（host session log 是持久真相）。
+- 遗留 TODO：approval/question 帧不进 history，跨 prune 不可恢复（manager 级 pendingBuffers 只覆盖「从未实例化」窗口）。
+
+### blank 位：空会话的可见投影、转正与复用
+
+「实体化但无首讯」的会话经 summary 派生位 `blank` 治理（派生列而非 header 字段，SessionHeader 保持不可变）：
+
+- host 判据：`session.events.length === 0`（零日志事件 = 尚无用户消息）。live 会话 `summarize()` 内存直读；cold 会话恒 `false`——lazy-create 契约保证 never-appended 会话根本不进 `persistence.list()`（JSONL/SQLite 两后端均已实证真 lazy），blank 从不落盘。
+- wire 承载两处：`SessionSummary.blank` 必填列；`host/session-added` 帧必填 `blank` 字段（创建时恒 true，供别的 tab 按同一空会话状态入镜像）。
+- client 镜像只降不升（单调），三来源翻转，全部复用既有 wire 信号：
+  - 发送方本地：首次 `prompt()` 的**成功响应**翻 false（受理即证明 user/message 已入 host 日志——此点翻转是确证而非乐观；`onEngaged` 同步更新列表镜像，当前 `New Session` 行原地转为普通标题，不新增列表行）。首讯被拒则会话保持 blank：与 host 权威对齐、继续显示为 `New Session`、保持 connectWorkspace 复用资格。
+  - 其他端：`host/session-status (running:true)` 帧翻转——blank 会话从不 running，首次 running 必然已非 blank；
+  - 重连对齐：`session.list` 的 summary.blank 是权威，错过帧的端下次拉取自然对齐；陈旧的 blank:true 不能把已转正的会话重新标回 blank。
+- 列表纪律：store 保留全部行；Workspace browser 的分组、平铺、搜索和计数共用同一可见投影——所有非 blank 会话都显示，blank 会话只显示 `session.id === sessions.current` 的一条，并强制标题为 `New Session`。切换 Workspace 后，旧 blank 实体仍在镜像中但从列表隐藏，目标 Workspace 的 current blank 显示；因此用户可见面全局至多一条 blank 行。
+- 残留账零 GC：刷新后 blank 会话带位回来，下次同 workspace 复用，普通单端路径使每个 workspace 至多保留一个；host 重启后 blank 无盘痕自然蒸发；多 tab 竞态多出的空壳只会成为非 current 隐藏行，后续复用消化，不做协调。
+
+### connectWorkspace：New Session 的唯一入口
+
+`workspaces.connectWorkspace(workspaceId): Promise<SessionId>`（归属 WorkspacesService——它同时持有 workspace 规范 path 与 sessions 引用）：
+
+- 复用臂：list mirror 中找 `blank && cwd == workspace.path`（host realpath 规范 canon 直等比较），命中直接返回该 id，不新建。
+- 新建臂：未命中则 `session.create({workspaceId})`，返回新 id。
+- 未知 workspaceId fail loud（不静默创建到别处）。
+- 解析保证（两臂同契约）：promise resolve 时返回的 id 已在 list store 且 `sessions.binding(id)` 同步可解析——`SessionsService.create` 在 RPC 成功后同步投影列表再 resolve，使 draft 搬运方可以在 open 之前往新 scope 的 machine 写文本，不等 notifier flush。
+- 调用方拿 id 自行 `sessions.open`；首讯发送就是普通 `session.prompt`——会话本来就在，失败即普通 prompt 失败，draft 文本还在 machine 里，重试即再次发送。
+- 全局 New Session 按钮默认取 `recentWorkspaceId`：先比较各 Workspace 内 Session 的最新 `updatedAt`，无 Session 时回退 Workspace `createdAt`，同值保持 Host 顺序；只有完全没有 Workspace 时才 `sessions.clear()` 进入无 session 视图。Workspace 分组内的创建动作仍显式命中该 Workspace。
+- runtime 启动时订阅首次完整基线：若已有恢复成功的 current session 则保持不动，否则自动 `connectWorkspace(recentWorkspaceId)` 并 open 返回的 blank session。该策略只结算一次；之后用户主动 clear 不会再次被自动选择覆盖，连接失败则等下一次基线投影重试。
+- blank Hero 中改选 Workspace 也走 `connectWorkspace`；若目标 id 与当前 id 不同，先把当前 input machine 的非空 draft 搬到目标 scope，再 `sessions.open(nextId)`。旧 blank 实体不删除，只因不再 current 而从列表隐藏。
+
+### per-session 供数：`sessions.provide` 标准件通道
+
+session slot 组件「自己拿 session 数据」的唯一供数路径。插件以静态描述符 `sessions.provide({hooks, props, resolve})` 声明固定键表（重名 key 注册时 throw），`resolve(binding)` 在确定 session 下物化值并随 scope 拆；web-react `standardKit` 统一循环把 hooks 格绑成 `use<Name>` 选择器 hook（`observableHook`→uSES，防 tearing）、props 格原样透传。
+
+slot scope 是闭集 `root | session-maybe | session`：
+
+- `root` 只拿全局标准件，不接收 session 身份或供数。
+- `session-maybe` 跟随 current session，但组件实例不因 id 有无或切换而换 key；无 session 时 `sessionId`、`useSession`/`useInput` 的选择结果及 `inputActions` 均可缺省。根部无 key 的 `SessionMaybeProvider` 驱动这条更新，`SessionMaybeProvideInfo` 靠静态键表在无 session 时仍保留完整 hook/prop 形状。
+- `session` 保证 `sessionId`、所有 hook source 与 props 均存在；每个严格 entry 的错误边界以 `sessionId` 为 key，切换 session 会重建该 entry 及其 session store。
+
+`conversation` 是 `session-maybe` 的常驻外壳：`ConversationRoot`、HeroShell、Workspace picker、composer stack 与 overlay chain 的 fallback 外框在无 session → blank session 的切换中保持 React 实例；`conversation.session` 只承载严格 session 的 header/view，composer 与各输入 slot 也保持严格 `session`。无 session 时 composer stack 直接放纯展示的 `DisabledInputBar`，session 出现后把输入体换成严格绑定的 InputBar；textarea 允许重建，Hero 与布局骨架不重建。blank → engaging/active 仍在同一严格 session subtree 内，InputBar 不因 phase 翻转而重建。
+
+- runtime 内建第一条：`'session'` hook——`useSession` 本身走同一机制，无特判。
+- Concurrent 纪律：渲染平面只从 hooks 格读（uSES 一致性保证）；props 格回调只在事件 handler 空间用；描述符解析 render-safe（幂等缓存、废弃渲染残留由 prune 收尸）。
+- 第三方组件值零依赖，类型一行 type-only import（declaration merging 进 `SessionStandardProps` / `SessionMaybeStandardProps`）。
+
+### 队列只读镜像
+
+- MuxFrame `session/queued`：Session 持只读 inbox 镜像（预览截断、steering 按 source 匹配退休）；queue 帧不进 history，纯 stream 态——重连清空、新基线重灌；未实例化窗口经 manager pendingBuffers 缓冲重放。
+- 队列语义：running 不锁输入；普通消息经 `session.prompt {mode:'queue'}` 排队，命令永不排队。
+
+### host wire 小件
+
+- summary `blank` 列与 `host/session-added` 帧 `blank` 字段（见上文 blank 位）。
+- SSE 帧 `host/commands-changed`（纯失效信号）；client 路由为类型事件 `commands/changed` 与 `connection/reset`（连接代建立后广播，wire 派生缓存一律视旧态为 stale）。
+- `command.list/execute`、`skill.list` 一律 `sessionId` 单址（会话恒有 Agent，`agentFor` 的 resume 语义现成）；命令面叙述见[命令业务面 note](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md)。
+- `session.create` 请求形状：workspaceId/cwd 二选一 + 可选调用方预分配 sessionId（同 id 同 cwd 重试幂等，异 cwd 报 `session-conflict`）。
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+| 弃案 | 一行理由 |
+|---|---|
+| client-local Intent + materialize（published CAS / pendingPrompt attach 事务 / before-create 链） | client 被迫模拟 host 缺失的前半段生命，养出 published CAS、attach 事务、部分发布一坨状态机 |
+| host 预留 ID（draft Map） | host 只认了个号，状态机原封留在 client |
+| host draft Session（有 Session 无 Agent） | 每个查 Agent 的 host 面都要为 draft 分叉；core 要开 attachAgent 缝 + header cwd 后写 |
+| 无 cwd 先绑 Agent（ungrouped） | header.cwd readonly "created in" 不变性被推翻 + launch-dir 副作用产品坑 |
+| React Context 层层传会话语境 | 插件在 host/client 两侧应是一个心智模型；scope 机制与 host dsh-scope 同构 |
+| `scopeTarget` carrier + 融合派发器（镜像 host `agentEvents`） | host 包装层护的是「业务 Agent subject 与 scope key 不漂移」，client 事件无 subject 可护；filter 住 actx + cordis 原语覆盖全部需求 |
+| Session 不持 ctx（对象层 cordis-free） | 只为筛选单测不引 cordis 而生的红线，代价是 contribute 两跳回调 + 可变公有字段；host Agent 本就持 loopCtx |
+| Session 实例常驻（resident-instance） | host session log 即持久真相；常驻仅为身份便利，与 scope 生命周期错位是复杂度之源 |
+| 组件收 wiring 回调包（inject→props 两层下传） | 标准件通道让组件自取；公共面收敛为 hooks + 稳定 props |
+| Hero 无 session 视图与 session Conversation 整支互换 | 即使外层 layout 不变，Hero、picker 与 composer 子树仍会一起重建，界面产生整块抖动 |
+| 让 InputBar 自身变成 `session-maybe` | 输入状态机、键盘命令面与动作都被迫接受缺省值；只替换 disabled 输入体能把可选性留在外壳边界 |
+| 专用「转正」帧 | `session-status(running:true)` 语义蕴含转正（blank 会话从不 running），加帧是 wire 多一型换零信息 |
+
+## 后果
+
+- 插件获得与 host 同构的会话语境：per-session 状态挂 actx、随 scope fiber 一次拆装，泄漏结构性不可能；双会话隔离由 scope filter 结构性保证。
+- client 对象层收敛为 wire 镜像：会话身份、生命周期、能力判别全部以 host 实体为准——输入体系（下一层）面对的永远是「有真 Agent 的会话」，slash/skill 等 provider 一律以 sessionId 直接寻址。
+- 空会话治理零专用机制：状态靠一个派生位，可见性靠统一列表投影（仅 current blank 以 `New Session` 展示），回收靠 lazy persistence 的既有契约（重启蒸发），常规上限靠同 Workspace 复用。
+- 代价：id→ctx 换乘纪律、provide 的 Concurrent 纪律都是约定而非类型强制，靠 review 与测试钉住；「未选 workspace」期间输入全禁是产品面接受的体验代价（单一状态轴换来的）。
+- 已知欠账：approval/question 跨 prune 恢复（TODO）；模型选择以 live-mutation 形状回归（host `selectModel` 三件套现成，等独立分支）。

+# Agent Note: Web command business surfaces and assembly (ui-command / ui-skill / ui-subagent)
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.zh.md)
+
+> Scope: the command directory cache and three-kind dispatch (ui-command), the popup selection flow, the two skill / subagent reference sources, and fixture command routing plus assembly acceptance (the slash-flow snapshot). The carrying wire lives in the [session scope note](2026-07-25-web-client-session-scope-and-provide-channel.md); triggers, the menu, and the input machine live in the [input machine note](2026-07-25-web-input-machine-and-slash-pipeline.md).
+
+## Problem
+
+The pipeline was ready but command knowledge had no landing spot: host-side `ctx.commands` and `ctx.skills` were complete while the web channel had no command capability. The business layer had to answer:
+
+- Command UI takes more than one shape (execute on the spot, pop a select box, backfill and keep typing arguments) — how do business packages ship with zero skeleton changes;
+- When is the directory fetched: pulling on every menu open is too slow, while a resident cache needs invalidation and reconnect stories;
+- Sessions are always agent-backed (Session + Agent born in the same instant) — by what address does the client command surface honor the host's per-agent effective directory;
+- Assembly-level acceptance: with the layers split apart, how the user-visible main chain is pinned once they come together.
+
+## Decision
+
+### ui-command: a `CommandService` + a session-keyed `CommandDirectory` + a per-session `PopupSelectController`
+
+- The `ClientSessionContext { sessionId }` projection is self-held in the ui-slash contract (types.ts): sessions are always agent-backed, so session identity is the entire projection of command capability; the wire addresses by `{sessionId}` (both `command.list` and `command.execute`; the host resolves the Agent from the session header).
+- The directory is compartmented by `SessionId`, with per-key single-flight + an epoch guard (an old pull never overwrites newer state); `commands/changed` soft-invalidates every key (the old snapshot keeps serving while the repull runs in the background), `connection/reset` hard-invalidates every key and rewarms, Enter strong-waits on the current key, and a failure keeps the draft with no downgrade. Prewarming hangs on the source's `warm` hook — once over the full roster at scope birth, which covers the entire session lifecycle (session capability is constant from birth).
+- `register(contribution)` registers client commands (a descriptor + `available(projection)` + a popupSelect spec); candidate synthesis = the host directory + contribution availability filtering, then the query/position pass, and a host/contribution name clash fails loud.
+- The three command kinds derive from the registration surfaces; developers never declare positions: a host descriptor with `input` = **leadingInput** (backfill `/name ␣` + claim, keep typing arguments, leading position only); a client-registered popupSelect spec = **popupSelect** (the official select-box shell, business ships zero components); neither = **execute** (run on selection, zero UI).
+- The dispatch decision table: the menu can trigger all three kinds; Space recognizes only leadingInput (the misfire defense: irreversible side effects keep explicit entry points only); Enter runs execute / opens the shell only on a bare token, while leadingInput tolerates trailing arguments.
+- The popup from `popupFor(actx)`: search filters locally, select is single-flight, the projection is captured at open, onSelect consumes the token through the consume-token event only on success, a failure is retained for retry, and a session switch merely hides it. The popup shell is a transient layer (never in the state machine): the box holds focus, Enter/↑↓/Escape belong to it, and clicking outside the box dismisses (clicking the textarea also returns focus).
+
+### Reference sources (seeing only projections plus their own apply closures, on the root ctx)
+
+- **ui-skill**: `skill.list({sessionId})` addresses by session (the host resolves the project root from the session header); the directory cache is single-flight keyed by sessionId, prewarmed at birth by the `warm` hook and fully cleared by `connection/reset`. A pick produces a text outcome (the literal `/name ` text, Decision 21); `lexicon` supplies the roster from CatalogFetch's settled snapshot (`undefined` while not warm). No match hook (references never enter command adjudication). Skill references ride ordinary prompts as literal text (outside the command plane; tool-skill unchanged, with the session-prefix directory providing the cooperative association).
+- **ui-subagent**: candidates are zero-RPC (the sessions.list snapshot filtered by parentId/running); a pick produces a text outcome (the literal `@name ` text); `lexicon` derives from the same snapshot (the model-side representation awaits its business workstream).
+
+### Fixture command routing and assembly
+
+- The connection fixture adds command routing (fixture + fake-api): the keyless rig can run the complete command flow (directory, execution, popup selection).
+- The apps/cli assembly mounts all the new packages; the tsconfig path map / reference sets are filled in; catalogs/docs are regenerated with the wire and events.
+
+### Assembly-level acceptance: the slash-flow snapshot
+
+`apps/web/tests/slash-flow.snapshot.ts` pins the user-visible main chain (assembled keyless; package mocks are no substitute for the assembled transcript): the composer disabled with no session → creating a Workspace and entering an already-materialized blank session → picking the `/echo` leadingInput from the `/` menu → the command executes but the blank bit does not flip and the list still shows `New Session` → the first ordinary prompt's successful acceptance converts that same row; the same session-bound textarea holds across blank → active. `workspace-flow.snapshot.ts` separately pins blank-row creation/reuse, first-prompt rejection backfill, and — on a Workspace switch before the first prompt — the draft moving across input machines with the old blank row hidden.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+| Rejected | One-line reason |
+|---|---|
+| Inline prompt dispatch (command text riding the message into the host for parsing) | Conflates the command and message planes; command execution being independent of the message queue is existing host semantics |
+| A bridge materializing skills as commands | Skills have their own directory; N registrations would be a detour; the tag form naturally avoids the command plane |
+| A `skill.invoke` RPC | The host has no such operation; skill references are plain text riding prompts |
+| A new ContentBlock reference type | Full-chain cost (adapters/UI/compaction); text-as-truth plus structured occurrence records suffices |
+| Client packages self-reporting command directories | The host is the single source of truth; the client only reads descriptors, with `commands-changed` pushing invalidation |
+| The `requires: 'none' \| 'agent'` discriminant axis (an agentless directory + dual-addressed queries) | With sessions always agent-backed, the amphibious command has no owner; the whole axis reverts to master's shape, to be reopened on real demand |
+| Dedicated commandresult / commandpanel slots | Results go through notices; the popup shell is a skeleton-internal overlay; rich result cards sit in the ledger |
+| An agent-type directory as the `@` source | No type registry exists; the live-session snapshot already covers it |
+| A PickAction/EnterCommand class family (class-inheritance pick products) | Cross-package runtime values break client bundle purity; pure data interfaces plus closure methods are equivalent |
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Shipping a business command = a host registration plus one client `command.register` (popupSelect) or zero registration (execute/leadingInput derive automatically), with zero skeleton changes; the cost is that the three-kind semantics concentrate in ui-command, and a hypothetical fourth kind means changing it.
+- The resident directory cache plus push invalidation buys zero-latency menus and reliable enter adjudication; the cost is three invalidation paths (the change frame, reconnect, the epoch guard) that all need tests pinning them.
+- sessionId addressing puts the host's per-agent effective directory (global + scoped shadows) straight on the wire, with the client presenting it as-is.
+- Known gaps: the popupSelect shell has no shipped business consumer yet (model selection and its kin return with #600's host `selectModel` in live-mutation shape, serving as the onboarding template then); the queue's second cut (per-item Inbox operations), rich result cards, and roster configurability sit in the ledger awaiting their triggers.

+# Agent Note: Web 命令业务面与装配（ui-command / ui-skill / ui-subagent）
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md) | 中文
+
+> 范围：命令目录缓存与三型判定（ui-command）、popup 选择流、skill / subagent 两个引用源、fixture 命令路由与装配验收（slash-flow 快照）。承载 wire 见[会话作用域 note](2026-07-25-web-client-session-scope-and-provide-channel.md)；触发/菜单/输入机器见[输入状态机 note](2026-07-25-web-input-machine-and-slash-pipeline.md)。
+
+## 问题
+
+管线就绪但没有命令知识的落点：host 侧 `ctx.commands` 与 `ctx.skills` 完整而 web 通道无命令能力。业务层要回答：
+
+- 命令 UI 不止一种形态（当场执行、弹选择框、回填后继续打参数）——业务包如何零骨架改动上架；
+- 目录何时拉取：每次开菜单现拉太慢，常驻缓存就要有失效与重连故事；
+- 会话恒 agent-backed（Session+Agent 同瞬出生），client 命令面以什么地址兑现 host 的 per-agent 有效目录；
+- 装配级验收：拆开的各层合起来，用户可见主链如何钉住。
+
+## 决策
+
+### ui-command：`CommandService` + session 键控 `CommandDirectory` + per-session `PopupSelectController`
+
+- 投影 `ClientSessionContext { sessionId }` 自持于 ui-slash 契约（types.ts）：会话恒 agent-backed，会话身份即命令能力的全部投影；wire 以 `{sessionId}` 寻址（`command.list` / `command.execute` 均是；host 从会话 header 解析 Agent）。
+- 目录按 `SessionId` 分格，per-key single-flight + epoch guard（旧拉取永不覆盖新态），`commands/changed` 全 key 软失效（旧快照继续服务、后台重拉）、`connection/reset` 全 key 硬失效并预热，Enter 强等当前 key、失败留草稿不降级。预热挂 source 的 `warm` 钩子——scope 出生时对全 roster 一次，即覆盖整个会话生命周期（会话能力自出生恒定）。
+- `register(contribution)` 注册 client 命令（descriptor + `available(projection)` + popupSelect spec）；候选合成 = host 目录 + contribution 可用性过滤，再过 query/position，host/contribution 重名 fail loud。
+- 命令三型按注册面派生，开发者不声明位置：host descriptor 带 `input` = **leadingInput**（回填 `/name ␣` + claim，继续打参数，仅限行首）；client 注册 popupSelect spec = **popupSelect**（官方选择框壳，业务零组件）；两者皆无 = **execute**（选中即执行，零 UI）。
+- 判定决策表：菜单可触发三型；Space 只认 leadingInput（误触发防线：不可逆副作用只留显式入口）；Enter 裸 token 才 execute/开壳、leadingInput 容忍尾随参数。
+- `popupFor(actx)` 的 popup：search 本地过滤、select single-flight、open 时捕获投影、onSelect 成功才经 consume-token 事件消 token、失败保留可重试、session 切换只隐藏。popup 壳是瞬态层（不进状态机）：框持焦点、Enter/↑↓/Escape 归它、点框外即 dismiss（点 textarea 同时归还焦点）。
+
+### 引用源（只见投影 + 自家 apply 闭包的 root ctx）
+
+- **ui-skill**：`skill.list({sessionId})` 按会话寻址（host 从会话 header 解析项目根）；目录缓存按 sessionId 键控 single-flight，`warm` 钩子出生预热、`connection/reset` 全清。pick 产出 text outcome（`/name ` 原文，决策 21）；`lexicon` 从 CatalogFetch 的 settled 快照给名录（未热 `undefined`）。无 match 钩子（引用不进命令裁决）。skill 引用以原文随普通 prompt 走（命令平面之外；tool-skill 不变，session-prefix 目录提供协作关联）。
+- **ui-subagent**：候选零 RPC（sessions.list 快照按 parentId/running 过滤）；pick 产出 text outcome（`@name ` 原文）；`lexicon` 同快照派生（模型侧表示待业务立项）。
+
+### fixture 命令路由与装配
+
+- connection fixture 补命令路由（fixture + fake-api）：keyless 台架可跑完整命令流（目录、执行、popup 选择）。
+- apps/cli 装配挂全部新包；tsconfig path map / reference 集补齐；catalog/docs 随 wire 与事件再生成。
+
+### 装配级验收：slash-flow 快照
+
+`apps/web/tests/slash-flow.snapshot.ts` 钉住用户可见主链（assembled keyless，包 mock 不替代装配转录）：无 session 时 composer 禁用 → 创建 Workspace 并进入已实体化的 blank session → `/` 菜单选 `/echo` leadingInput → 命令执行但 blank 位不翻转、列表仍显示 `New Session` → 首条普通 prompt 成功受理后同一行转正；同一 session-bound textarea 跨 blank → active 保持。`workspace-flow.snapshot.ts` 另钉住 blank 行创建/复用、首讯拒绝回填，以及首讯前切换 Workspace 时 draft 跨 input machine 搬运且旧 blank 行隐藏。
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+| 弃案 | 一行理由 |
+|---|---|
+| prompt 内联派发（命令文本随消息进 host 解析） | 混淆命令/消息平面；命令执行独立于消息队列是既有 host 语义 |
+| skill 物化为 command 的桥 | skill 自有目录；N 笔注册是绕路；标签形式天然避开命令平面 |
+| `skill.invoke` RPC | host 无此操作；skill 引用是随 prompt 的普通文本 |
+| 新 ContentBlock 引用类型 | 全链路成本（adapter/UI/compaction）；文本即真身 + 结构化 occurrence 记录已足够 |
+| client 各包自报命令目录 | host 是唯一真源；client 只读 descriptor，`commands-changed` 推失效 |
+| `requires: 'none' \| 'agent'` 判别轴（agentless 目录 + 双址查询） | 会话恒 agent-backed 后两栖命令无 owner；整轴回退 master 形状，待真需求重开 |
+| 专用 commandresult / commandpanel 坑位 | 结果走 notice；popup 壳是骨架内浮层；富结果卡入台账 |
+| agent-type 目录做 `@` 源 | 无类型注册表；live-session 快照已覆盖 |
+| PickAction/EnterCommand 类族（类继承 pick 产物） | 跨包运行时值破坏 client bundle 纯度；纯数据接口 + 闭包方法等价 |
+
+## 后果
+
+- 业务命令上架 = host 注册 + client 一笔 `command.register`（popupSelect）或零注册（execute/leadingInput 自动派生），零骨架改动；代价是三型语义集中在 ui-command，假想的第四型意味着改它。
+- 常驻目录缓存 + 推失效换来菜单零延迟与回车裁决可靠；代价是三条失效路径（change 帧、重连、epoch guard）都需测试钉住。
+- sessionId 寻址让 host 的 per-agent 有效目录（全局 + scoped shadows）直接上 wire，client 原样呈现。
+- 已知欠账：popupSelect 壳暂无已上架业务消费者（模型选择等 #600 的 host `selectModel` 以 live-mutation 形态回归，届时作接入样板）；队列第二刀（逐项 Inbox 操作）、富结果卡、roster 可配置性入台账待触发。

+# Agent Note: Web input state machine, composer slots, and the slash pipeline (ui-conversation input / ui-slash)
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-25-web-input-machine-and-slash-pipeline.zh.md)
+
+> Scope: the input state machine (the occurrence table + claim watch + the submit transaction), the hub/facade and send orchestration, the three scoped bail events for cross-plugin input rewrites, `/` and `@` trigger detection and the menu pipeline (ui-slash), and the slot system around the composer. It depends on the [session scope note](2026-07-25-web-client-session-scope-and-provide-channel.md)'s sctx / provide / session-maybe and blank entity model; command knowledge (the three kinds, the directory, popups) is untouched here — that is the [command surfaces note](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md)'s territory.
+
+## Problem
+
+Two composers, each a law unto itself: hero (EmptyState, the controlled chain writing straight into the Session) and the in-conversation InputBar (a plain controlled textarea) — behavior, draft ownership, and send path all inconsistent. To bring the three trigger families — `/` commands, skill references, `@` references — onto the input surface, these had to be answered:
+
+- How the three trigger families layer, and who holds knowledge of "commands" versus who stays zero-knowledge;
+- How the input box expresses "command mode" — derived from the draft text or explicit state? What do backspace, enter, space, and pasting a whole line each mean;
+- Submission is an asynchronous transaction (an RPC round trip) — how are stale-result backwash, session switching, and React concurrent replay defended;
+- How reference chips are represented on a plain textarea, and who owns undo / clipboard / paste matching / model serialization;
+- How cross-plugin input rewrites (menu backfill, reference insertion, token consumption) achieve dependency inversion;
+- Which React shells must be reused across no session → blank session, and which strict-session input bodies may be replaced.
+
+Hard constraints: components mount through slots only; presentation artifacts never enter the session log; the keyboard path is IME-safe throughout.
+
+## Decision
+
+### The input state machine (`InputMachine`)
+
+A pure state machine, events in / effects out, clock injected. Four phases (plain / adjudicating / claimed / submitting). Command mode is **never derived from the draft**; the pick paths establish it explicitly at discrete moments; the claim is watched by `draft.startsWith(token)`, with a backspace break releasing automatically; the claim shape is `{token, hint?}` (hint feeds ghost text).
+
+The event surface (`dispatch(ev)` is the single write entry; one transaction per event):
+
+- `draft-changed {draft, editRange?}` — the textarea's full draft; editRange narrows the occurrence-shift computation, defaulting to a shared prefix/suffix scan.
+- `newline {selection}` — the Ctrl+Enter line break (not via the browser's execCommand: under self-managed undo a browser write forks two histories).
+- `begin-command {claim, span}` / `insert-ref {reference, span}` / `consume-token {guard}` — the machine side of the three bail events; span CAS = draftRev equality.
+- `set-invalid {invalidIds}` — the style bit for owner-resolution results (not a transaction).
+- `undo` / `redo` — the self-managed transaction log (a ring of 100; single-character typing merges within injected-clock windows; a successful submit clears the log).
+- `paste-begin {text, selection, components?, generation?}` — the paste plus hot-snapshot synchronously matched components in one transaction (one Undo returns to before the paste); opens a PasteMatchAttempt.
+- `paste-upgrade {attemptId, span, reference}` — an asynchronous match upgrade as its own transaction (Undo in two steps); the attempt stays current, and insertedRange shrinks with each upgrade.
+- `invalidate-paste` — attempt-ending gestures observed at the DOM layer (caret/selection operations and the like).
+- `enter {mode}` / `adjudicated` / `adjudication-failed` / `submit-settled` / `release` — the submit-transaction plane: a SubmitAttempt (seq + AbortSignal) blocks backwash; success commits and clears the draft; failure rolls back under the drift guard (the enter-time snapshot is backfilled only while the live draft still equals it; if the user has typed again, only a notice fires).
+
+The effect surface (executed by the shell): `adjudicate` (calls SlashController.adjudicate), `begin-submit` (the claim.submit transaction), `default-sink` (ordinary messages, hub-orchestrated), `notice`.
+
+The occurrence table and the chip's three projections:
+
+- Each reference occupies one `U+FFFC` in the draft; a table entry is `{occurrenceId, source, ref, offset, label, clipboardText, invalid?}`; same-named chips stay independent through occurrenceId.
+- Every edit updates the draft and the table in one transaction: ranges shift; a deletion/replacement intersecting a placeholder acts on the whole chip.
+- The single-character placeholder makes keyboard atomicity mostly hold natively (the caret has no interior position; Backspace / arrow keys / Shift extension natively take the whole chip); a mouse click on a chip goes backdrop hit → whole-chip setSelectionRange.
+- The visual projection = label: the backdrop renders the chip at the placeholder offset (the textarea glyph is invisible), with invalid taking the invalid style.
+- The clipboard/persistence projection = clipboardText: copy/cut expands placeholders inside the selection; the draft-persistence mirror writes the same projection (the chat store always holds plain text; the refresh seed semantics = select-all copy → reopen → paste, with chips degrading to text across a refresh).
+- The model projection = generated per chip at submit through the source's `codec.serialize` (owned by the submit attempt's signal and stale guard; a missing owner / failure / cancel means no send, never a downgrade to `/name`).
+
+### Cross-plugin input rewrites: three scoped bail events
+
+The contract is declared in ui-slash (the bottom of the dependency chain); producers dispatch via `sctx.bail(sctx, ...)`, and the only consuming side is the three listeners the hub hangs on the sctx when building the shell; returning `true` ⟺ the machine passed the phase and CAS guards and actually rewrote (emitting the event ≠ a successful modification; whether Space gets `preventDefault` follows the return value):
+
+- `slash/input-begin-command` `{claim, span}` — backfill of the command claim adjudicated from a menu pick / Space (dispatched by the SlashController).
+- `slash/input-insert-reference` `{reference, span}` — reference chip insertion (dispatched by the SlashController).
+- `slash/input-consume-token` `{guard: span | bare-token}` — consuming the command token after business success (dispatched by the downstream command surfaces).
+
+Calls that stay un-evented (registry registration → explicit call → await): Input's own draft/submit, asynchronous Enter adjudication, the reference serializer, the asynchronous paste matcher. `@mode bail` has entered the JSDoc parser and the cordis catalog gate (scripts/jsdoc.ts).
+
+### The slash pipeline (ui-slash: a root `SlashService` + a per-session `SlashController`)
+
+A trigger/menu/pick pipeline with zero knowledge of "commands":
+
+- The service holds only the source registry (`SlashSource{trigger: '/'|'@', name, candidates, onPick, matchSpace?, matchEnter?}`; (trigger,name) unique, registration order = group order = polling order) and `sessionOf(sctx)`. Implementing a match hook IS the declaration of participation in space/enter adjudication; the pipeline polls in registration order, the first non-undefined answer wins, and no claimant means the default sink. matchSpace is synchronous (space fires mid-keystroke; hot cache only); matchEnter is asynchronous (it may await the source's own warmup, and a warmup failure rejects).
+- The controller holds the single authoritative hit (span included; retained for Space after the menu closes), the per-session menu store, the candidate-fetch generation, keyboard arbitration (combobox mode: focus stays in the textarea, ↑↓/Enter/Escape are intercepted and all pass the IME composition guard, with the single exception Shift+Enter unconditionally going first), and pick orchestration (outcome → self-dispatched bail events); at each session scope's birth it runs `warm(projection)` once over the source roster — within that scope the projection holds only the stable sessionId, with no published/capability transitions; the scope disposer tears down the controller.
+- Trigger-detection word boundaries (`user@host` and URL `/` never trigger) and the guard tiers (plain: `/` everywhere + `@` inline / claimed: `/` suppressed, `@` live / frozen: none) are the frozen pure core.
+
+### hub / facade: the resident shell and the strict-session input body
+
+- The hub (trigger/decoration registries + send orchestration) takes the slash/command services as optional `ctx.get()` dependencies: without ui-slash or the command surfaces, input still sends and receives normally — graceful degradation.
+- Each materialized Session has exactly one `SessionInputShell` (the facade), created and torn down with the session scope; with no session, no input machine is built. `ConversationRoot` is itself the `session-maybe` resident shell, holding HeroShell, the Workspace picker, the composer stack, and the chain-fallback frame.
+- With no session the shell renders the presentation-only `DisabledInputBar`; once `connectWorkspace` returns a blank session, only the input body is swapped for the strict-session InputBar. The textarea may be rebuilt here, while `ConversationRoot`, the Hero, and the layout skeleton hold; blank → engaging/active stays the same session-bound InputBar, with the textarea never rebuilt on a phase flip.
+- ConversationRoot's Hero criterion is `sessionId === undefined || (composerPhase === 'blank' && (openState === 'open' || openState === 'loading'))`. The first submit enters engaging synchronously, and a failure keeps the composer and the error context rather than falling back to the blank Hero; the sidebar's blank bit flips false only after a prompt is successfully accepted.
+- Sending unifies in the hub defaultSink: after an optimistic draft clear it goes only through `session.prompt {mode:'queue'|'steer'}`; backfill happens only when it fails and the live draft is still empty — a user who has kept typing is never overwritten. No Draft materialize or attach transaction exists.
+- When the blank Hero re-picks the Workspace, the shell calls `connectWorkspace`; if the target session differs, the non-empty draft moves from the current shell to the target shell before the new id is opened, and the old blank session survives but is no longer current.
+- The Notifier's two-bit contract: `dirty` (snapshot freshness, clearable by an `ensureFresh` pull) and `notifyPending` (notification debt, cleared only by a flush) are mutually independent — a pull must not swallow a push, and object-layer push subscribers (watchTransaction) depend on this guarantee.
+
+### Plain-text references (Decision 21): text outcomes and lexicon decoration
+
+skill/@subagent references skip the placeholder + occurrence identity chain — a pick inserts the literal `/name ` `@name ` text straight into the draft, with the chip visual purely derived:
+
+- PickOutcome gains a `{text}` arm; the new scoped bail event `slash/input-insert-text` `{text, span}` (the same contract as the other three: draftRev CAS, returning true ⟺ an actual rewrite); facade.insertText goes through setDraft concatenation — zero machine changes.
+- Sources get an optional `lexicon?(session)` hook: a synchronous hot-snapshot name roster, with `undefined` = data not warm — zero decoration, never triggering a fetch (the render path stays synchronous and side-effect-free); the controller aggregates it into the `lexicon()` public surface.
+- `decorations.scanTextRefs`: a word-boundary scan of the draft (`/name`, `@name` at line start / after whitespace; `x/name` never hits) against the roster; a hit gets the `.textRef` mark (a pure range highlight on the backdrop, same as hlToken); an edit breaking the match shape simply disappears on the next scan.
+- Sending is the literal text (no more `<skill>` serialization); on the bubble side MessageItem decorates both shapes (the legacy `<skill>` tag + plain-text tokens).
+- The old occurrence/paste/serialize chain stays on disk in full, undeleted (additive; deletion is a separate future cut). Known limitation kept as-is: with the lexicon not warm at paste / cold start there is no decoration — it lights up only after typing `/` opens the menu once.
+
+### Per-session provide contributions and the private keyboard surface
+
+- ui-conversation (the hub doubling as a contributor) supplies through `sessions.provide` the `'input'` hook (machine state + the queue overlay) plus the `inputActions` prop (`setDraft`/`submit`, stable void callbacks).
+- The public/private boundary: the public provide carries only React-vocabulary members; the keyboard/DOM command surface (track/arbitrate/space/undo/redo/paste/dismissPopup/bindMirror — synchronous return values, disposer semantics) is InputBar-exclusive, passed privately in-package through the InputBar entry's own inject, never leaving the plugin boundary.
+
+### The slot system
+
+`conversation` is itself session-maybe; its session content and the composer input slots are strict session, while the Hero Workspace picker stays root. The child slots are all declared by ui-conversation's conversation registration:
+
+- `conversation.session` (single) — the strict-session header, view ring, and chat store; rebuilt when the session id switches.
+- `conversation.composer.bar` (single) — the slot for the InputBar itself: the InputBar is a true slot entry (self-registered into its own slot) and the content of the composer chain's fallback; it is not a chain entry — the chain's single election would unmount it on a takeover, breaking textarea DOM survival.
+- `conversation.input.overlay` — the floating-overlay anchor inside the input card; registrants' inject resolves each one's own per-session controller by the slot sessionId.
+- `conversation.input.dock` — the stacked strip above the input (QueueDock's read-only queue list lands here), ordered by `order`.
+- `conversation.composer.dock` — the stats band on the composer's top edge.
+- `conversation.input.left` / `conversation.input.right` — the tool-row left and right regions.
+- `conversation.input.plan` / `conversation.input.model` (single) — the tool row's two named control seats; the bar passes only `locked` (owner props), each stays empty until its owning plugin registers, no placeholder fallback.
+- `conversation.hero.workspace` (root scope) — the Workspace picker shared by the no-session and blank Hero; a pick reuses or creates the target blank session through `connectWorkspace`, moving the draft where necessary before switching current.
+
+### Testing discipline
+
+The state machine's entire behavior is covered by pure-JS unit tests (event sequences in, asserting state and effects, zero browser DOM); the interaction matrix is projection-tested row by row. This requirement is precisely what forced the pure-core + service-shell layering.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+| Rejected | One-line reason |
+|---|---|
+| An ActiveCommand intermediate state / a registerMode mode registry / deriving command mode from the draft | Claims are established explicitly by the pick paths — no table, no derivation |
+| Direct bindTarget/bindDraft object wiring | Reverse coupling plus root-singleton cross-session mispairing; scoped bail events preserve dependency inversion with structurally correct routing |
+| A unified slash/input-apply, or eventing everything | Three independent payloads cover the cross-plugin rewrites; asynchronous paths stay registry-based explicit calls |
+| contenteditable / a rich-text tree | Poor compatibility; textarea + U+FFFC + the occurrence table covers the full interaction contract |
+| Dual draft persistence {text, occurrences} | The mirror writing the clipboard projection adds zero new concepts; chip degradation across refresh is acceptable |
+| The native textarea undo stack | Unreliable under controlled + programmatic writes; the paste two-step undo semantics can only be self-managed |
+| The InputBar receiving a 16-member wiring-callback bundle | The consumption matrix proved 11 members InputBar-exclusive and 1 a dead member; the standard-kit channel lets components fetch their own, with the keyboard surface passed privately in-package |
+| Space adjudication also claiming execute-kind commands | The misfire defense: after a space the whole line is an ordinary prompt; irreversible side effects keep explicit entry points only |
+| A generic tokenPattern decoration mechanism | Structured occurrence records replace pattern scanning |
+| A placeholder select resident in the tool row | Named seats stay empty until registration; a placeholder clashing with the real implementation is two sources of truth |
+| All references through U+FFFC chips (the pre-Decision-21 line) | Plain text + derived decoration carries zero identity state; the literal text IS the model projection, sparing undo/clipboard any special cases; the chip chain is kept for scenarios needing indivisible atomicity |
+
+## Consequences
+
+- One resident conversation shell carries no-session/blank/active: no session → blank guarantees only the outer frame's React identity, allowing the disabled textarea to be replaced by the strict InputBar; the same blank session → engaging/active keeps the InputBar and the textarea. EmptyState and the controlled intent chain (`sessions.updateIntent`/`updatePendingPrompt`/`workspaces.sendSession`) are deleted along with their last consumer.
+- The input surface's zero knowledge of commands plus optional dependencies: pure input works without the command packages; `@` references and skill references get free reuse of the same menu/pick pipeline. The cost is that space/enter adjudication is a per-source polling protocol whose answer semantics (sync/async, the meaning of undefined) are a frozen contract.
+- Transactionalized submission (attempt seq + the drift guard) makes the three defect classes — stale-result backwash, session switching, concurrent replay — structurally impossible, pinned by the matrix tests.
+- Known gaps: chip fidelity across refresh (paste matching is reusable for it) has no workstream yet; the subagent reference's model representation awaits its business workstream.

+# Agent Note: Web 输入状态机、composer 坑位与 slash 管线（ui-conversation input / ui-slash）
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-25-web-input-machine-and-slash-pipeline.md) | 中文
+
+> 范围：输入状态机（occurrence 表 + claim 看护 + 提交事务）、hub/facade 与发送编排、跨插件输入改写的三个 scoped bail 事件、`/` 与 `@` 触发检测与菜单管线（ui-slash）、composer 周边坑位体系。依赖[会话作用域 note](2026-07-25-web-client-session-scope-and-provide-channel.md)的 sctx / provide / session-maybe 与 blank 实体模型；命令知识（三型、目录、popup）零涉——那是[命令业务面 note](2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.md)的领地。
+
+## 问题
+
+两个各自为政的 composer：hero（EmptyState，受控链直写 Session）与会话内 InputBar（普通受控 textarea），行为、draft 所有权、发送路径全不一致。要让 `/` 命令、skill 引用、`@` 引用三类触发进入输入面，必须回答：
+
+- 三类触发如何分层，谁对"命令"有知识、谁零知识；
+- 输入框如何表达"命令态"——从 draft 文本推导还是显式状态？退格、回车、空格、整行粘贴各是什么语义；
+- 提交是异步事务（RPC 往返）——晚到结果回灌、会话切换、React concurrent 重放如何防御；
+- 引用 chip 在纯 textarea 上如何表示，undo/剪贴板/粘贴匹配/模型序列化各归谁；
+- 跨插件的输入改写（菜单回填、引用插入、token 消费）如何做到依赖倒置；
+- 无 session → blank session 时哪些 React 外壳必须复用，哪些严格 session 输入体允许替换。
+
+硬约束：组件一律经 slots 挂载；呈现物不进 session log；键盘路径全程 IME 安全。
+
+## 决策
+
+### 输入状态机（`InputMachine`）
+
+纯状态机，事件进/效果出，注入时钟。四相 phase（plain / adjudicating / claimed / submitting）。命令态**永不从 draft 推导**，由 pick 路径在离散时刻显式建立；claim 由 `draft.startsWith(token)` 看护、退格破坏自动 release；claim 形状 `{token, hint?}`（hint 供 ghost text）。
+
+事件面（`dispatch(ev)` 单写入口，每个事件一个 transaction）：
+
+- `draft-changed {draft, editRange?}`——textarea 全量草稿；editRange 缩小 occurrence 平移计算，缺省前后缀共扫。
+- `newline {selection}`——Ctrl+Enter 换行（不经浏览器 execCommand：自管 undo 下浏览器写入会分叉双历史）。
+- `begin-command {claim, span}` / `insert-ref {reference, span}` / `consume-token {guard}`——三个 bail 事件的机器侧；span CAS = draftRev 相等。
+- `set-invalid {invalidIds}`——owner resolution 结果的样式位（非 transaction）。
+- `undo` / `redo`——自管 transaction log（环形 100；单字符打字按注入时钟窗合并；提交成功清 log）。
+- `paste-begin {text, selection, components?, generation?}`——粘贴 + 热快照同步匹配组件同 transaction（Undo 一次回粘贴前）；打开 PasteMatchAttempt。
+- `paste-upgrade {attemptId, span, reference}`——异步匹配升级为独立 transaction（Undo 两段）；attempt 保持 current，insertedRange 随升级收缩。
+- `invalidate-paste`——DOM 层观察到的 attempt 终结手势（caret/selection 操作等）。
+- `enter {mode}` / `adjudicated` / `adjudication-failed` / `submit-settled` / `release`——提交事务平面：SubmitAttempt（seq + AbortSignal）防回灌，成功 commit 清稿，失败带漂移守卫 rollback（回车时快照仅当 live draft 仍等于它才回填；用户已再输入则只发 notice）。
+
+效果面（shell 执行）：`adjudicate`（调 SlashController.adjudicate）、`begin-submit`（claim.submit 事务）、`default-sink`（普通消息，hub 编排）、`notice`。
+
+occurrence 表与 chip 三投影：
+
+- 每颗引用在 draft 中占一个 `U+FFFC`；表项 `{occurrenceId, source, ref, offset, label, clipboardText, invalid?}`；同名 chip 因 occurrenceId 独立。
+- 一切编辑同 transaction 更新 draft 与表：区间平移；与占位符相交的删除/替换作用于整颗。
+- 单字符占位使键盘原子性大半原生成立（caret 无内部位；Backspace/方向键/Shift 扩选原生即整颗）；鼠标点 chip 由 backdrop 命中 → 整颗 setSelectionRange。
+- 视觉投影 = label：backdrop 在占位符 offset 渲染 chip（textarea 字形不可见），invalid 走失效样式。
+- 剪贴板/持久化投影 = clipboardText：copy/cut 把选区内占位符展开；draft 持久化 mirror 写同一投影（chat store 里永远是普通文本，刷新 seed 语义 = 全选复制→重开→粘贴，chip 跨刷新降级为文本）。
+- 模型投影 = submit 时经 source `codec.serialize` 逐颗生成（归 submit attempt 的 signal 与 stale guard；owner 缺失/失败/取消则不发送，不降级为 `/name`）。
+
+### 跨插件输入改写：三个 scoped bail 事件
+
+契约声明在 ui-slash（依赖最底层），生产者经 `sctx.bail(sctx, ...)` 派发，唯一消费侧是 hub 建 shell 时挂在 sctx 上的三个 listener；返回 `true` ⟺ 机器过 phase + CAS 守卫并实际改写（发出事件 ≠ 修改成功，Space 是否 `preventDefault` 以返回值为准）：
+
+- `slash/input-begin-command` `{claim, span}`——菜单 pick / Space 裁决出的命令 claim 回填（SlashController 派发）。
+- `slash/input-insert-reference` `{reference, span}`——引用 chip 插入（SlashController 派发）。
+- `slash/input-consume-token` `{guard: span | bare-token}`——业务成功后消费命令 token（下游命令面派发）。
+
+不事件化的调用（registry 注册 → 显式调用 → await）：Input 自身的 draft/submit、Enter 异步裁决、reference serializer、异步 paste matcher。`@mode bail` 已入 JSDoc parser 与 cordis catalog 门禁（scripts/jsdoc.ts）。
+
+### slash 管线（ui-slash：root `SlashService` + per-session `SlashController`）
+
+对"命令"零知识的触发/菜单/pick 管线：
+
+- service 只有 source 注册表（`SlashSource{trigger: '/'|'@', name, candidates, onPick, matchSpace?, matchEnter?}`；(trigger,name) 唯一、注册序 = 组序 = 轮询序）与 `sessionOf(sctx)`。实现 match 钩子即参与空格/回车裁决的声明；管线按注册序轮询，首个非 undefined 应答胜出，无人认领落 default sink。matchSpace 同步（空格在击键中触发，只许热缓存）；matchEnter 异步（可 await 源自身预热，预热失败即 reject）。
+- controller 持有唯一权威 hit（含 span；菜单关闭后为 Space 保留）、per-session menu store、候选 fetch generation、键盘仲裁（combobox 模式：焦点始终在 textarea，↑↓/Enter/Escape 拦截且全程过 IME composition 守卫，唯一例外 Shift+Enter 无条件先行）、pick 编排（outcome → 自派 bail 事件）；每个 session scope 出生时对 source roster 做一次 `warm(projection)`，projection 在该 scope 内只有稳定的 sessionId，无 published/能力跃迁；scope disposer 拆除 controller。
+- 触发检测词边界（`user@host`、URL `/` 永不触发）、守卫分档（plain：`/` 到处 + `@` 行内 / claimed：`/` 抑制、`@` 活 / frozen：全无）为冻结纯核。
+
+### hub / facade：常驻外壳与严格 session 输入体
+
+- hub（trigger/decoration 注册表 + 发送编排）对 slash/command 服务是可选 `ctx.get()` 依赖：无 ui-slash/命令面时输入正常收发，优雅降级。
+- 每个实体 Session 只有一个 `SessionInputShell`（facade），随 session scope 创建和拆除；无 session 时不造 input machine。`ConversationRoot` 自身是 `session-maybe` 常驻外壳，持有 HeroShell、Workspace picker、composer stack 与 chain fallback 外框。
+- 无 session 时外壳渲染纯展示的 `DisabledInputBar`；`connectWorkspace` 返回 blank session 后，仅输入体换成严格 session 的 InputBar。这里允许 textarea 重建，`ConversationRoot`、Hero 与布局骨架保持；blank → engaging/active 仍是同一 session-bound InputBar，textarea 不因 phase 翻转而重建。
+- ConversationRoot 的 Hero 判据是 `sessionId === undefined || (composerPhase === 'blank' && (openState === 'open' || openState === 'loading'))`。首次 submit 同步进入 engaging，失败也保留 composer 与错误上下文，不退回 blank Hero；sidebar 的 blank 位只在 prompt 成功受理后翻 false。
+- 发送统一在 hub defaultSink：乐观清稿后只走 `session.prompt {mode:'queue'|'steer'}`；失败且 live draft 仍为空才回填，用户已经继续输入则不覆盖。不存在 Draft materialize 或 attach 事务。
+- blank Hero 改选 Workspace 时，外壳调用 `connectWorkspace`；目标 session 不同时把非空 draft 从当前 shell 搬到目标 shell，再 open 新 id，旧 blank session 留存但不再 current。
+- Notifier 双位契约：`dirty`（快照新鲜度，`ensureFresh` 拉取可清）与 `notifyPending`（通知欠账，只有 flush 清）各自独立——拉取不得吞推送，对象层推订阅者（watchTransaction）依赖这一保证。
+
+### 纯文本引用（决策 21）：text outcome 与 lexicon 装饰
+
+skill/@subagent 引用不走占位符 + occurrence 身份链——pick 直接把 `/name ` `@name ` 原文插进 draft，chip 视觉纯派生：
+
+- PickOutcome 增 `{text}` arm；新 scoped bail 事件 `slash/input-insert-text` `{text, span}`（与另三个同契约：draftRev CAS、返回 true ⟺ 实际改写）；facade.insertText 走 setDraft 拼接，机器零改动。
+- source 可选 `lexicon?(session)` 钩子：同步热快照名录，`undefined` = 数据未热——零装饰、永不触发 fetch（渲染路径保持同步无副作用）；controller 聚合为 `lexicon()` 公面。
+- `decorations.scanTextRefs`：词边界扫描 draft（行首/空白后的 `/name`、`@name`，`x/name` 永不命中）对照名录，命中即 `.textRef` mark（backdrop 纯 range 高亮，同 hlToken）；编辑破坏匹配形状下次扫描自然消失。
+- 发送即原文（不再 `<skill>` 序列化）；气泡侧 MessageItem 双形状装饰（legacy `<skill>` 标签 + 纯文本 token）。
+- 旧 occurrence/paste/serialize 链全部保留在盘未删（additive；删除另成将来一刀）。已知局限维持现状：粘贴/冷启动时 lexicon 未热不装饰，输 `/` 开一次菜单后才亮。
+
+### per-session 供数贡献与键盘私面
+
+- ui-conversation（hub 兼贡献者）经 `sessions.provide` 供 `'input'` hook（机器状态 + queue overlay）+ `inputActions` prop（`setDraft`/`submit`，稳定 void 回调）。
+- 公私分界：公共 provide 只放 React 语汇成员；键盘/DOM 命令面（track/arbitrate/space/undo/redo/paste/dismissPopup/bindMirror——同步返回值、disposer 语义）是 InputBar 独占，走 InputBar entry 自己的 inject 包内私递，不出插件边界。
+
+### 坑位体系
+
+`conversation` 本身是 session-maybe；其会话内容与 composer 输入坑位严格 session，Hero Workspace picker 保持 root。子坑均由 ui-conversation 的 conversation 注册声明：
+
+- `conversation.session`（single）——严格 session 的 header、view ring 与 chat store；session id 切换时重建。
+- `conversation.composer.bar`（single）——InputBar 本体的坑位：InputBar 是真 slot entry（自家坑自注册），composer chain fallback 的内容；不做 chain entry——chain 单选举会在 takeover 时卸载它，破坏 textarea DOM 存活。
+- `conversation.input.overlay`——输入卡内浮层锚点；注册者 inject 按 slot sessionId 解析各自 per-session controller。
+- `conversation.input.dock`——输入上方堆叠条（QueueDock 的队列只读列表落此），order 定序。
+- `conversation.composer.dock`——composer 上沿统计带。
+- `conversation.input.left` / `conversation.input.right`——工具行左右区。
+- `conversation.input.plan` / `conversation.input.model`（single）——工具行两具名控制位；bar 只传 `locked`（owner props），空到 owning 插件注册为止，无占位 fallback。
+- `conversation.hero.workspace`（root scope）——无 session / blank Hero 共用的 Workspace picker；pick 经 `connectWorkspace` 复用或创建目标 blank session，必要时搬运 draft 后切 current。
+
+### 测试纪律
+
+状态机全部行为由纯 JS 单测覆盖（事件序列进、断言状态与效果，零浏览器 DOM）；交互矩阵逐行投影测试。这一要求正是纯核 + 服务壳分层的成因。
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+| 弃案 | 一行理由 |
+|---|---|
+| ActiveCommand 中间态 / registerMode 模式注册表 / 从 draft 推导命令态 | claim 由 pick 路径显式建立——无表、无推导 |
+| bindTarget/bindDraft 对象直连 | 反向耦合 + root 单例跨会话误配；scoped bail 事件保依赖倒置且路由结构性正确 |
+| 统一 slash/input-apply 或全事件化 | 三个独立 payload 覆盖跨插件改写；异步链路保持 registry 显式调用 |
+| contenteditable / 富文本树 | 兼容性差；textarea + U+FFFC + occurrence 表覆盖全部交互契约 |
+| draft 双持久化 {text, occurrences} | mirror 写剪贴板投影零新概念；chip 跨刷新降级可接受 |
+| 原生 textarea undo 栈 | 受控 + 程序化写入下不可靠；粘贴两段 undo 语义只能自管 |
+| InputBar 收 16 员 wiring 回调包 | 消费矩阵实证 11 员 InputBar 独占、1 员死成员；标准件通道让组件自取，键盘面包内私递 |
+| 空格裁决也认领即执行型命令 | 误触发防线：空格后整行是普通 prompt；不可逆副作用只留显式入口 |
+| 通用 tokenPattern 装饰机制 | 结构化 occurrence 记录取代模式扫描 |
+| 占位 select 常驻工具行 | 具名坑位空到注册为止；占位件与真实现冲突时是双真相源 |
+| 引用一律走 U+FFFC chip（决策 21 前旧线） | 纯文本 + 派生装饰零身份状态；原文即模型投影，undo/剪贴板免特判；chip 链保留给需要不可分原子性的场景 |
+
+## 后果
+
+- 一个常驻 conversation 外壳承接 no-session/blank/active：无 session → blank 只保证大框架 React identity，允许 disabled textarea 替换为严格 InputBar；同一 blank session → engaging/active 保持 InputBar 与 textarea。EmptyState 与受控 intent 链（`sessions.updateIntent`/`updatePendingPrompt`/`workspaces.sendSession`）随最后消费者一并删除。
+- 输入面对命令零知识 + 可选依赖：无命令包时纯输入可用；`@` 引用与 skill 引用免费复用同一菜单/pick 管线。代价是空格/回车裁决是逐 source 轮询协议，其应答语义（同步/异步、undefined 含义）为冻结契约。
+- 提交事务化（attempt seq + 漂移守卫）使晚到结果回灌、会话切换、concurrent 重放三类缺陷结构性不可能，由矩阵测试钉住。
+- 已知欠账：chip 跨刷新保真（可复用粘贴匹配）未立项；subagent 引用的模型表示待业务立项。

 ## Decision
 
 - **Paired sibling files with equal authority.** A documentation pair is three sibling files: English `foo.md`, Chinese `foo.zh.md`, and a consistency record `foo.i18n.yaml`. Neither language is canonical — a document may be authored and reviewed Chinese-first and translated to English afterwards, or the reverse; what binds the pair is that both sides must say the same thing, and pairs merge whole (both languages plus the record, never one alone). Policy: [docs/i18n/README.md](../../../../docs/i18n/README.md); translation rules: [docs/i18n/translation-rules.md](../../../../docs/i18n/translation-rules.md); terminology source of truth: [docs/i18n/terminology.md](../../../../docs/i18n/terminology.md).

 - **`verify-translation-pairing` joins `doc-sync`.** The gate ([scripts/verify-translation-pairing.ts](../../../../scripts/verify-translation-pairing.ts)) enforces: every discovered, non-excluded source has a complete pair; every existing pair is complete (all three files) and consistent (both hashes match, switcher links both ways, structural signatures identical); and excluded generated, instruction, or bilingual-by-construction files stay unpaired. [scripts/translation-pairing.manifest.json](../../../../scripts/translation-pairing.manifest.json) contains only explicit exclusions, so no requirement can bypass discovery and receive a weaker check. Source-oriented code gates consume a `.zh.md` fence sequence as a derivative only when its unsuffixed sibling has the same tracked fences in the same order with byte-identical bodies; an incomplete, reordered, reclassified, or changed sequence stays independent, so the owning code gate or pairing gate reports the mismatch.
 - **One corpus-wide requirement.** Every document in scope requires a complete pair from creation; the policy has no per-file rollout state, date cutoff, or README-specific class. README discovery covers every case-insensitive README basename outside vendored, dependency, and ignored build-output trees, including future top-level directories. A site-published pair uses `pairedPages()` so the root locale projects `.zh.md` and `/en/` projects `.md`; creating a counterpart alone does not publish it.
 - **Pairing records are metadata, not Cordis Loader configuration.** Cordis configuration discovery accepts actual `.cordis.yml` and `.cordis.yaml` files while excluding `*.i18n.yaml`, even when the document name contains `cordis`. This preserves validation of executable Loader entries without parsing translation hashes as configuration.

+# Agent Note: Briefed minimal translation updates
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-26-briefed-minimal-translation-updates.zh.md)
+
+## Problem
+
+The [bilingual pairing contract](2026-07-02-bilingual-docs-and-pairing-gate.md) already prescribed minimal counterpart updates — diff the edited side against its last-confirmed state, patch the counterpart, never re-translate — but the committed workflow made every update pay whole-document overheads. The translating subagent loaded the full guidance corpus (skill, pairing contract, translation rules, the 192-line terminology table, style samples, prose standard) before touching a two-line diff; it re-derived the last-confirmed diff by hand through `git cat-file`; and each iteration re-ran the corpus-wide pairing gate, which parses every pair in the tree to validate one. A small English prose edit routinely cost tens of times its proportional share of tokens and minutes, which taxes exactly the behavior the contract wants — bringing the counterpart along in the same PR.
+
+## Decision
+
+Pair updates run on a generated briefing instead of the guidance corpus; only new pairs still run the whole-document workflow, which is unchanged.
+
+- **`pnpm run gen-translation-brief [--apply] [pair...]`** ([scripts/gen-translation-brief.ts](../../../../scripts/gen-translation-brief.ts), assembly in [scripts/translation-brief.ts](../../../../scripts/translation-brief.ts)) prints, per out-of-sync pair, the authored side's diff from its recorded last-confirmed blob to the working tree plus the change mapped at the narrowest safely aligned granularity, deterministically widening on mapping failure: a change confined to the pair's byte-identical code fences is computed outright (`--apply` splices it into the counterpart and validates the result against the pairing gate's structural signature before writing); otherwise changed Markdown units (headings, paragraphs, table rows, list items, code fences, block quotes, HTML blocks, thematic breaks, link definitions — matched by container-scoped kind sequences) each carry their last-confirmed source, current source, and current counterpart text with line numbers; units that do not align fall back to depth-matched heading sections; and when sections do not align either, or both sides drifted, the briefing says so and withholds the mapping instead of guessing. Terminology rows are matched against the changed spans only (word-boundary English matching with plural inflections), and for Chinese targets the briefing tracks each relevant term's document-wide first occurrence — when an edit moves it, the vacated and receiving spans join the briefing with an explanatory note, since the 首次出现 annotation must move with it. The unit mapping, code splice, and first-occurrence mechanics adopt the planner design from the [incremental prompt-pipeline work](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/pull/684), whose provider-backed bake-off independently validated the same scope ladder for the automated pipeline. The briefing is the translator's whole working set; the full sources of truth remain the escalation path for decisions the briefing cannot answer.
+- **The update path in [dsh-translate-docs](../../../skills/dsh-translate-docs/SKILL.md)** consumes the briefing: mechanical (code-fence-only) changes are applied with `--apply`, no subagent; prose diffs go to a subagent whose prompt is the briefing, not the corpus; verification is clause-by-clause on the changed spans, not the whole document.
+- **The pairing gate takes pair arguments.** `verify-translation-pairing [pair...]` checks just the named pairs (any of a pair's three files, or the bare stem, names it); the corpus-wide sweep remains the no-argument form that `doc-sync` and CI run. `--write` now requires naming the confirmed pairs — bare `--write` refuses, and re-recording everything is an explicit `--write --all` — because the old bare form silently blessed every drifted pair in the tree, including ones the caller never looked at, and a prose-only drift would then stay green forever. Each record's comment names its own scoped command.
+
+## Benchmark
+
+The decision followed a controlled replay of ten real pair updates from this repo's history (July 2026; 1-64 changed English lines each, READMEs, RFCs, Agent Notes, and user docs). Each example was reconstructed in a scratch repo at its true last-confirmed state with the English edit uncommitted, then run through competing workflows with fresh subagents: the status-quo corpus-loading path, the briefed path, a no-guidance control, whole-document re-translation, the briefed path on a small model, and a three-pairs-per-agent batch. Outputs were gated mechanically and scored blind by judges who also received the real historical update and the untouched stale counterpart as controls.
+
+- The briefed path matched the status-quo path on judged faithfulness, preservation, and fluency — both at or above the real historical updates — while spending roughly a third of the tokens and wall clock on the stall-free examples (medians across all ten: 276k vs 595k relative token-cost units, 14 vs 32 turns).
+- Re-translation was confirmed harmful, not merely wasteful: judged preservation collapsed (4.4/10 vs 9.8) because it discards reviewed phrasing, it drifted established terminology the update arms kept (the counterpart's own text carries the renderings), and it was the most expensive arm.
+- The no-guidance control held quality too — the binding context for an update is the diff plus the counterpart's own reviewed text, not the corpus — but the briefing buys a fixed working set, inline terminology, and the both-sides-drifted warning at negligible cost over it.
+- On the briefing, a small model performed at parity with the large one, so the update path no longer assumes a frontier translator.
+- Batching three pairs into one subagent showed no reliable saving over three briefed runs and couples unrelated failures; it was rejected.
+
+A second head-to-head replay on the same ten examples compared this note's shipped briefing against its earlier section-only form (no unit tier, no computed mechanical path, counterpart-only context, no first-occurrence tracking). Prose quality and cost were at parity — pairwise blind verdicts split with only stylistic margins — and the shipped form won on two objective outcomes: the two code-fence-only examples were completed byte-identical to the human-reviewed historical updates in under a second with no model tokens, and on the example whose edit moved a term's document-wide first occurrence, the shipped briefing's flagged move reproduced the human-reviewed gloss relocation while the section-only form left a 首次出现 violation for review to catch.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+- **Keep the workflow, just scope the gate** — the gate scan was the smaller cost; the corpus loads and archaeology dominated. Scoping alone would have left the ~3x overhead in place.
+- **Whole-document re-translation as the update path** (what a naive pipeline does) — rejected on benchmark evidence: preservation collapse, terminology drift, highest cost. The contract's minimal-update rule survives with data behind it.
+- **Batching several pairs per subagent** — rejected: no measured saving (briefings already deduplicate the fixed content), and one stalled or confused pair holds the others hostage.
+- **Per-paragraph translation-memory records in the sidecar** (segment hashes instead of whole-file hashes) — rejected: paragraph boundaries may legitimately differ across the pair, either side can be authored first, and the records would bloat and conflict in merges. Span mapping computed on demand from the existing whole-file hashes recovers the same alignment when it is trustworthy and says so when it is not.
+- **An update mode in the automated prompt pipeline (prompt-v5)** — deferred, not designed here: nothing drives [scripts/translation-prompt.ts](../../../../scripts/translation-prompt.ts) today, and the agent path was the live cost center. The pipeline keeps its whole-document v4 contract until it has a consumer.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- A small prose edit's counterpart update now costs a briefing generation plus one small focused task — no corpus reads, no archaeology, no corpus-wide scans inside the loop — and the same PR obligation holds; the cheap path and the correct path point the same way.
+- The briefing generator is a second consumer of the consistency records: recorded blob hashes now also drive diff recovery and section mapping, strengthening the incentive to keep records honest.
+- `--write` without arguments no longer works; muscle-memory callers must name pairs or pass `--all`. That is the point — the bulk bless is now a visible, deliberate act.
+- Scoped checks mean an update loop can be green while an unrelated pair elsewhere is red; the corpus-wide check in `doc-sync`/CI still owns the tree-level invariant.
+- Span mapping trusts an alignment only when the kind sequences match across the last-confirmed source, current source, and current counterpart; a mapping failure widens deterministically (units → sections → whole document) rather than guessing, so a restructured document gets an explicit "locate the regions yourself" briefing, never a wrong map.
+- A first-occurrence move can enlarge a briefing beyond the directly changed spans; that cost is an explicit consequence of the 首次出现 contract, not an alignment heuristic.
+
+## Testing
+
+[scripts/translation-brief.spec.ts](../../../../scripts/translation-brief.spec.ts) pins unit and section span extraction (container-scoped kinds, depth-only section alignment so translated heading text still maps, preamble), alignment and changed-index detection, the mechanical code splice and each of its refusal conditions, terminology row matching in both directions with word-boundary and plural-inflection discipline, first-occurrence movement tracking, fence escalation, and the rendered briefing's contract (unit bundles with three-way context, mechanical/sections/document scopes, per-direction digests, scoped finish commands). [scripts/translation-pairing.spec.ts](../../../../scripts/translation-pairing.spec.ts) pins argument normalization (any pair file or bare stem to the anchor) and the CLI matrix: scoped check, bare `--write` refusal, `--write <pair>`, `--write --all`, `--list` exclusivity, unknown flags.

+# Agent Note: 基于简报的最小化翻译更新

+
+## 问题
+
+[双语配对契约](2026-07-02-bilingual-docs-and-pairing-gate.md)早已规定对侧文件按最小幅度更新：把被改的一侧与其上次确认状态做 diff，据此修补对侧文件，绝不整篇重译；但仓库内置的工作流让每次更新都付出整篇文档级别的开销。负责翻译的 subagent 在动手处理一个两行的 diff 之前，要先加载完整的指导语料（guidance corpus），即 skill（技能）、配对契约、翻译规则、192 行的术语表、语体样例与行文标准；要通过 `git cat-file` 手工重新推导上次确认状态以来的 diff；每轮迭代还要重跑全语料配对门禁，而该门禁为校验一个配对要解析整棵树里的每一个配对。一次小的英文行文修改，动辄花掉数十倍于其应得份额的 token 用量与分钟数，被惩罚的恰恰是契约想要的行为：在同一个 PR（Pull Request）里把对侧文件一并带上。
+
+## 决策
+
+配对更新基于生成的简报（briefing）运行，而非基于指导语料；只有新建配对仍走整篇文档工作流，后者保持不变。
+
+- **`pnpm run gen-translation-brief [--apply] [pair...]`**（[scripts/gen-translation-brief.ts](../../../../scripts/gen-translation-brief.ts)，组装逻辑在 [scripts/translation-brief.ts](../../../../scripts/translation-brief.ts)）针对每个失去同步的配对，打印被改一侧从其记录在案的上次确认 blob 到当前工作区的 diff，并附上以能安全对齐的最窄粒度映射的这次改动，映射失败时粒度确定性地逐级放宽：仅落在配对中逐字节一致的围栏代码块内的改动会直接算出（`--apply` 会把它拼接进对侧文件，并在写入前用配对门禁的结构签名校验所得结果）；否则，每个有改动的 Markdown 单元（标题、段落、表格行、列表项、围栏代码块、块引用、HTML 块、分隔线、链接定义；匹配依据是以容器为作用域的种类序列）都带上各自的上次确认源文、当前源文与当前对侧文本及行号；无法对齐的单元回退到按深度匹配的标题章节；当章节也无法对齐或两侧同时漂移时，简报会明说这一点并省略映射，而不是靠猜。术语表行只与改动块匹配（英文术语按词边界匹配，含复数变形）；当目标侧是中文时，简报还会跟踪每个相关术语在整篇文档中的首次出现：一旦某次编辑使其移位，腾出的与接收的两处区间就会附一条解释性说明加入简报，因为「首次出现」括注必须随之移动。单元映射、代码拼接与首次出现机制采纳了[增量提示词流水线工作](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/pull/684)中的规划器设计；该项工作中接入提供方的对比评测，已为自动流水线独立验证了同一套范围阶梯。简报就是译者的全部工作集；简报回答不了的决策，仍以完整的真源文档作为升级求证路径。
+- **[dsh-translate-docs](../../../skills/dsh-translate-docs/SKILL.md) 中的更新路径**消费这份简报：机械类改动（只涉及围栏代码块）用 `--apply` 应用，不动用 subagent；行文类 diff 交给 subagent，其提示词就是简报本身，而非指导语料；核验只对改动块逐句进行，不覆盖整篇文档。
+- **配对门禁接受配对参数。**`verify-translation-pairing [pair...]` 只检查被点名的配对（配对三个文件中的任意一个，或其裸词干，都能指代该配对）；全语料扫描仍是 `doc-sync`（文档同步门禁）与 CI 运行的无参数形式。`--write` 现在要求点名已确认的配对：裸 `--write` 会拒绝执行，重新记录全部配对必须显式写 `--write --all`；原因是旧的裸形式会默默为树中每一个漂移的配对背书，包括调用者从未看过的那些，纯行文层面的漂移于是可以永远保持绿灯。每份记录的注释都写明针对该配对自身的按对命令。
+
+## 基准测试
+
+该决策来自对本仓库历史上十次真实配对更新的受控回放（2026 年 7 月；每例改动 1 到 64 行英文，涵盖 README、RFC、Agent Note（agent 决策记录）与用户文档）。每个样例都在临时仓库中重建到其真实的上次确认状态，英文改动保持未提交，再用全新的 subagent 分别跑过相互竞争的各条工作流：维持现状的语料加载路径、简报路径、无指导对照组、整篇重译、小模型上的简报路径，以及每个 agent（智能体）一次处理三对文档的批量方案。产出先经机械门禁把关，再由评委盲评打分；评委还同时收到真实的历史更新与原样未动的陈旧对侧文件作为对照。
+
+- 简报路径在盲评的忠实性、保留度与流畅度上与现状路径打平（两者都达到或超过真实历史更新的水平），而在未发生停滞的样例上只花费约三分之一的 token 用量与墙钟时间（全部十例的中位数：相对 token 成本单位 276k 对 595k，轮次数 14 对 32）。
+- 整篇重译被证实有害，而不只是浪费：它丢弃经评审的措辞，盲评保留度因此崩塌（4.4/10 对 9.8）；它还使各更新组保持住的既定术语发生漂移（既定译法本就写在对侧文件自身的正文里）；而且它是成本最高的一组。
+- 无指导对照组的质量同样立得住（对一次更新有约束力的上下文，是 diff 加上对侧文件自身经评审的正文，而非指导语料），但简报以几乎可忽略的额外成本，换来固定的工作集、内联的术语，以及两侧同时漂移的警告。
+- 以简报为输入，小模型的表现与大模型持平，因此更新路径不再假定翻译必须由前沿模型完成。
+- 把三对文档合并给同一个 subagent，相比三次各自带简报的运行没有可靠的节省，还把互不相关的失败耦合在一起；该方案被否决。
+
+在同样这十个样例上进行的第二次正面对比回放，把本文最终交付的简报与其早前仅按章节的形态（没有单元层级、没有直接算出的机械路径、上下文只含对侧文件、不跟踪首次出现）相对照。行文质量与成本两相持平（两两盲评裁定各有胜负，差距仅在文风），而最终交付的形态在两项客观结果上胜出：两个只涉及围栏代码块的样例在一秒之内完成且不消耗任何模型 token，产出与经人工评审的历史更新逐字节一致；而在那个编辑使某术语在整篇文档中的首次出现发生移位的样例上，最终交付的简报所标记的移位复现了经人工评审的括注迁移，仅按章节的形态则留下一处「首次出现」违例，留待评审去捕捉。
+
+## 曾考虑的替代方案
+
+- **保留原工作流，只让门禁支持按对检查**：门禁扫描本是较小的开销，大头在语料加载与翻查历史。只收窄检查范围，约 3 倍的开销仍会原地保留。
+- **把整篇重译作为更新路径**（朴素流水线的做法）：依据基准测试证据否决，理由是保留度崩塌、术语漂移、成本最高。契约的最小更新规则得以延续，且从此有数据支撑。
+- **每个 subagent 批量处理多对文档**：否决。没有实测出节省（简报本身已对固定内容做了去重），而且一对文档停滞或陷入混乱会把其余配对一并拖住。
+- **在伴随记录中保存逐段的翻译记忆条目**（用分段 hash 取代整文件 hash）：否决。配对两侧的段落边界可以合理地不同，任一侧都可能先撰写，这类条目还会不断膨胀并在合并时产生冲突。基于现有整文件 hash 按需计算的区间映射，在对齐可信时能恢复同样的对齐关系，不可信时会明确说明。
+- **给自动提示词流水线加一个更新模式（prompt-v5）**：推迟，本文不做设计。今天没有任何调用方在驱动 [scripts/translation-prompt.ts](../../../../scripts/translation-prompt.ts)，实际的成本中心是 agent 路径。流水线在拥有消费方之前，维持其整篇文档的 v4 契约。
+
+## 后果
+
+- 一次小的行文修改，其对侧更新如今只需生成一份简报，外加一个小而聚焦的任务（不读指导语料、不翻查历史、循环内不做全语料扫描），同一 PR 内完成更新的义务保持不变；低成本的路径与正确的路径指向同一个方向。
+- 简报生成器成为一致性记录的第二个消费方：记录的 blob hash 如今还驱动 diff 还原与章节映射，这进一步强化了如实维护记录的动机。
+- 不带参数的 `--write` 不再可用；靠肌肉记忆的调用者必须点名配对或传 `--all`。这正是目的所在：批量背书如今是一个可见的、有意为之的动作。
+- 按对检查意味着一个更新循环可以在别处某个无关配对处于红灯时自己保持绿灯；`doc-sync`/CI 中的全语料检查仍然承载树级不变式。
+- 区间映射只在上次确认源文、当前源文与当前对侧文本三方的种类序列一致时才信任一处对齐；映射失败时粒度确定性地逐级放宽（单元 → 章节 → 整篇文档）而不是靠猜，因此被重构过的文档拿到的是一份明确写着「请自行定位相关区域」的简报，绝不会是一张错误的地图。
+- 「首次出现」的一次移位可能让简报扩大到直接改动块之外；这一成本是「首次出现」契约的明确后果，而非对齐启发式。

 ## What this skill is
 
 **This skill is guidance, not a translation memory.** It is the workflow map for keeping `foo.md ↔ foo.zh.md` pairs consistent and natural in both languages. Both languages carry equal authority — a change is authored in either one, and that side is the source for that update. You are the translator: the rules below say what must hold, not how to phrase any particular sentence — phrasing judgment is yours, terminology is not.

-These are authoritative; read them at the source so this skill never drifts out of sync.
+- **Update** (pair exists, one side edited): follow [the update path](#the-update-path-briefing-driven). It is briefing-driven and deliberately cheap: no guidance-corpus reading, no git archaeology, smallest counterpart edit. Never re-translate a whole document to apply an update — a minimal update preserves the reviewed phrasing of everything that didn't change; a re-translation throws that review away.
+- **New pair** (no counterpart yet): follow [the whole-document path](#the-whole-document-path-new-pairs).
+- **Deleted or renamed doc**: delete or rename the counterpart and the `.i18n.yaml` alongside it — the gate reports an incomplete pair otherwise.
+
+Frozen Agent Notes under `.agents/notes/archived/` are not translation work. Their complete triplets are sealed by the archive verifier; never update, re-record, or repair either side after archival.
+
+## The update path (briefing-driven)
+
+Benchmarked on real pair updates from this repo's history, the briefing-driven path costs a fraction of a guidance-corpus-loading run at equal measured quality; the [briefed-updates Agent Note](../../notes/implemented/process/2026-07-26-briefed-minimal-translation-updates.md) holds the evidence.
+
+1. **Generate the briefing**: `pnpm run gen-translation-brief <any file of the pair>` (no arguments briefs every out-of-sync pair). The briefing maps the change at the narrowest safely aligned granularity — changed Markdown units (paragraph, table row, list item, heading), then whole heading sections, then whole document — and contains the authored side's diff since the last confirmed-consistent state, each changed unit's last-confirmed source, current source, and current counterpart text (with line numbers), the terminology rows the change touches, first-occurrence movement notes, and a digest of the binding update rules.
+2. **Mechanical-only diff? `--apply` it.** When every change lies inside code fences that the pair shares byte-identically, the briefing says so; `pnpm run gen-translation-brief --apply <pair>` splices the edited fences into the counterpart and structure-validates the result before writing — no subagent, no hand-editing.
+3. **Prose diff? Delegate to a subagent, passing the briefing** (or the command to generate it). The briefing is the translator's whole working set — the subagent does not re-read the guidance corpus (the rules digest, terminology rows, and each changed unit's three-way context are inline) and does not re-derive the diff. It escalates to the whole-document path's sources of truth only when the briefing leaves a specific decision genuinely unanswerable — an unlisted term with no precedent in the surrounding text, or a whole-document briefing (`BOTH sides changed`, or neither units nor sections align), which always means reconciling by hand under [translation-rules.md](../../../docs/i18n/translation-rules.md).
+4. **Smallest edit that covers the diff.** Preserve the reviewed phrasing of everything the diff does not touch, then verify the changed hunks clause by clause against the source: nothing added, nothing dropped, terminology per the inline rows, code spans verbatim.
+5. **Record and verify, scoped**: `pnpm run verify-translation-pairing --write <pair>` then `pnpm run verify-translation-pairing <pair>`. `--write` names exactly the pairs you confirmed — it refuses to run bare so a bulk re-record is always an explicit `--all`. The corpus-wide check still runs in `doc-sync`/CI; do not run it per-update.

+## The whole-document path (new pairs)

+When translations need to be written from scratch, the orchestrating agent does not translate: spawn a subagent to do the translation work. The translator reads the sources of truth below first, then translates the whole file into the other language — section by section for long documents, keeping each section's structure locked to the source as you go rather than fixing structure at the end.

-
-- **New pair** (no counterpart yet): whichever language exists — English or Chinese — translate the whole file into the other, section by section for long documents, keeping each section's structure locked to the source as you go rather than fixing structure at the end.
-- **Update** (pair exists, one side edited): do NOT re-translate. The consistency record names the exact last-confirmed text of both sides — recover the edited side's previous state and diff:
-
-  ```sh
-  git cat-file -p <hash-from-i18n-yaml> > /tmp/last-confirmed.md
-  git diff --no-index /tmp/last-confirmed.md docs/foo.md
-  ```
-
-  Apply the smallest counterpart edits that cover that diff. A minimal update preserves the reviewed phrasing of everything that didn't change; a re-translation throws that review away.
-- **Deleted or renamed doc**: delete or rename the counterpart and the `.i18n.yaml` alongside it — the gate reports an incomplete pair otherwise.

-2. Record consistency: `pnpm run verify-translation-pairing --write` recomputes and records both sides' full blob hashes in `foo.i18n.yaml`. The yaml diff in your PR is the reviewable statement "I confirmed these two say the same thing" — only run it after you actually have.

A user's conversational agreement — including an answer confirming something you asked — approves nothing and does not end plan mode; fold the confirmed decision into the plan and submit it through exit_plan_mode.
+
+          Explore first. Use non-mutating reads, searches, static analysis, and checks to ground the plan in the actual repository.

Keep it concise enough to review but detailed enough that another engineer can implement it without making design decisions.
+
+          When ready, call exit_plan_mode with the complete plan markdown, starting with a # title. Make exit_plan_mode the only and final tool call in that assistant response: it presents the plan for approval, and implementation begins only in a later step after approval. Do not paste the final plan as a plain reply or ask "should I proceed?" through prose or ask_user_question. If review rejects it, incorporate the feedback and present again. If the review channel is unavailable or aborted, stay in plan mode and ask the user to switch modes manually; do not proceed with implementation.

After bringing the pair back in line, `pnpm run verify-translation-pairing --write <pair>` re-records both hashes; that yaml diff is the reviewable act of confirming consistency, which is why `--write` requires naming the pairs you confirmed (`--write --all` is the explicit corpus-wide form).

A PR that leaves a pair out of sync goes red in CI.
 
 The gate's limit, stated plainly: **a green gate means the pair was confirmed consistent at these exact contents, not that the confirmation was sound.** It checks hashes and shape; it cannot judge whether the two sides actually say the same thing, or whether the wording is accurate, well-termed, and natural — that is the reviewer's half of the contract, per [translation-rules.md](translation-rules.md). A re-recorded pair with a sloppy counterpart passes the gate; it must not pass review.

+
+Client command surface (`ctx.command`): the session-keyed command-directory cache, the `/` command source with matchSpace/matchEnter adjudication hooks, three-kind dispatch (execute / popupSelect / leadingInput), and the popupSelect registration face for business packages. Contract: the [web command surfaces Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.zh.md).
+
+`src/client/contract.ts` is the frozen business face: `CommandServiceContract.register(name, spec)` is everything a business package consumes; `CommandUiSpec{options, onSelect}` keeps popup data self-served — the shell component is this package's and business never sees it. Command kinds derive per dispatch, never per registration: a host descriptor with `input` is leadingInput, a registered `CommandUiSpec` is popupSelect, everything else is execute.
+
+`CommandDirectory` (`src/client/directory.ts`) is the one wire-derived cache, keyed by session: every session is agent-backed, so `command.list({sessionId})` is the only address shape and the source's scope-birth `warm` hook prewarms the session's entry. Entries are soft-invalidated by the `commands/changed` typed event (old snapshot serves while the repull flies), hard-invalidated by `connection/reset`, epoch-guarded so a superseded pull can never overwrite a newer one. `matchSpace` answers synchronously from this cache only; `matchEnter` strong-waits it on the SubmitAttempt signal and rejects on warmup failure — a `/` line is never silently downgraded to a plain prompt.
+
+`PopupSelectController` (`src/client/popup.ts`) is the headless shell state: `PopupSelectView` self-registers into `conversation.input.overlay` (the SlotMap key is ui-conversation's; this package pulls the declaration in with a type-only import — no runtime edge). The shell is a transient layer holding focus while open; token-segment consumption after onSelect runs both branches through `consumeTokenSegment` (menu-path span CAS, enter-path bare-token equality) against the draft face the wiring layer binds via `bindDraft`.
+
+The `/client` export surface is the plugin body (`apply`/`inject`), `CommandService`, the directory and popup classes with their state types, and the frozen contract types; the shell component itself is internal to the overlay registration.
+
+## Model Experience
+
+Indirectly, through the host `command.execute` RPC this package's dispatch and `claim.submit` paths trigger: a matched command's handler mutates host domain state that other packages project into the next request (the `/plan` handler flips plan mode, whose owning package injects its `plan:policy` system-prompt section), while the command line itself, the detached result, and every menu/notice rendering stay client-side and never enter the session log.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+None directly; this package neither assembles nor sends a provider request. Command handlers it triggers may change what the owning host packages contribute to the next request's system prompt (a section appearing or disappearing replaces earlier request tokens and invalidates the provider prefix from that point), but that effect is owned and documented by each command's host package.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **The popupSelect shell has no shipped business consumer** — model selection (host `selectModel`) is the design's reference case and lands with its own feature work; until then the shell is exercised by package tests only.
+- **Detached-result notices fall back to the console off-session** — the fire-and-forget paths route results to the triggering session's composer via `SessionInput.notify`; after session teardown the console line is the only remaining surface.

+
+客户端命令业务面（`ctx.command`）：以会话为 key 的命令目录缓存、带 matchSpace／matchEnter 裁决钩子的 `/` 命令 source、三型派发（execute／popupSelect／leadingInput），以及面向业务包的 popupSelect 注册面。契约：[Web 命令业务面 Agent Note（agent 决策记录）](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-07-25-web-command-surfaces-and-assembly.zh.md)。
+
+`src/client/contract.ts` 是冻结的业务表层：`CommandServiceContract.register(name, spec)` 是业务包消费的全部内容；`CommandUiSpec{options, onSelect}` 让 popup 数据自给自足——壳组件归本包所有，业务永远见不到它。命令三型按每次派发派生，绝不在注册时定型：带 `input` 的 host descriptor 是 leadingInput，注册了 `CommandUiSpec` 的是 popupSelect，其余全部是 execute。
+
+`CommandDirectory`（`src/client/directory.ts`）是唯一的 wire 派生缓存，以会话为 key：每个会话恒为 agent-backed，因此 `command.list({sessionId})` 是唯一的寻址形状，source 的 scope 出生 `warm` 钩子会预热该会话的缓存项。缓存项由 `commands/changed` 类型化事件软失效（重拉在途期间旧快照继续服务），由 `connection/reset` 硬失效，并以 epoch 把关，被取代的旧拉取永远无法覆盖更新的结果。`matchSpace` 只凭该缓存同步应答；`matchEnter` 在 SubmitAttempt 信号上强等缓存，预热失败即拒绝——`/` 开头的一行绝不会被静默降级为普通提示词。
+
+`PopupSelectController`（`src/client/popup.ts`）是无头的壳状态：`PopupSelectView` 自行注册进 `conversation.input.overlay`（SlotMap key 归 ui-conversation 所有；本包只以 type-only 导入引入该声明——没有运行时依赖边）。壳是打开期间持有焦点的瞬态层；onSelect 之后的 token 片段消费在两条分支上都经 `consumeTokenSegment` 执行（菜单路径做 span CAS，回车路径做裸 token 相等比较），作用于接线层经 `bindDraft` 绑定的草稿表层。
+
+`/client` 导出表层是插件主体（`apply`／`inject`）、`CommandService`、目录类和 popup 类及其状态类型，以及冻结的契约类型；壳组件本身是 overlay 注册的内部实现。
+
+## 模型体验
+
+间接影响，途径是本包的派发与 `claim.submit` 路径触发的 host `command.execute` RPC：匹配命中的命令，其 handler 会修改 host 领域状态，其他包再把该状态投影进下一个请求（`/plan` 的 handler 翻转 plan 模式，其归属包注入 `plan:policy` 系统提示词 section），而命令行本身、detached result 与所有菜单／notice 渲染都留在客户端，永不进入会话日志。
+
+#### KV Cache 影响
+
+无直接影响；该包既不组装也不发送提供方请求。它触发的命令 handler 可能改变归属 host 包对下一个请求系统提示词的贡献（某个 section 的出现或消失会替换较早的请求 token，并使提供方前缀从该点起失效），但这一影响由各命令的 host 包拥有并记录。
+
+## 已知限制与暂缓事项
+
+- **popupSelect 壳还没有已上架的业务消费者**：模型选择（host `selectModel`）是设计的参照用例，将随其自身的功能工作落地；在此之前，壳只由包测试演练。
+- **脱离会话后，detached result 的 notice 回退到 console**：fire-and-forget 路径经 `SessionInput.notify` 把结果送到触发会话的编辑器；会话拆除后，console 输出行是仅剩的呈现面。
