Issue #611 asked for file-type icons like the official explorer's, and #429
built a colored theme for them. DSH 0.1.5-rc.2 makes most of that work
unnecessary: `@deepseek-ai/dsh-client-ui-primitives` now exports
`FileTypeIcon` / `CodeFileIcon` with the host's own 48-type full-color code
artwork plus category-colored sheet glyphs (and its classifier behind them).
So the plugin renders the host's icons instead of shipping a color table, and
color becomes the only behaviour rather than an opt-in theme.
File icons (src/client/file-icons.tsx)
- `builtinFileIcon(path, size)` → `<FileTypeIcon path size />`; folders use the
host's folder category. The plugin's own per-extension VSCodicon map is gone.
- The public `registerFileIcon` API from #531 is unchanged and still outranks
the built-ins, so an external plugin can take over any row. One semantic
consequence, now documented and tested: because the host classifier covers
every path, a registered catch-all (`exts: []`) claims rows it used to lose
to the built-in map. An unregistered catch-all (the old icon theme's shape)
is unaffected.
- Nothing is lazy any more: the artwork lives in a platform module the client
already holds, so `lib/client-file-icons.js` and its 563-entry dataset (255
kB) are deleted outright — the core bundle grew by 10 kB (0.85 → 0.86 MB).
- `src/client/file-icon-theme.ts`, the `fileIconTheme` pref (prefs-shared /
config / client prefs), the settings-page select row and the six
`settingsFileIconTheme*` keys in all 20 dictionaries are removed with it.
Tab glyphs (src/client/builtins/tab-icons.tsx)
- Every built-in tab type now declares a colored glyph: files (the host's
folder artwork), changes/diff (commit), tasks (checklist), side chat
(discussion), terminal (shell), browser (globe).
- The color comes from a `--dsw-alias-*` token through a wrapper class, never
from a literal — the skin contract (§12) holds and `tests/theme.spec.ts`
enforces both halves (no literals in the module, every color declaration in
the stylesheet resolves to a token).
Native right Sidebar chips (src/client/native/tab-adapter.tsx)
- The host's tab definition has no icon field, but the
`sidebar.right.pane.tab.title` slot IS the chip's content, so the plugin
draws the glyph itself: an editor tab with a path shows that file's icon,
every other tab shows its descriptor's icon — the same `descriptor.icon` the
workbench strip and the guide capsules already render, so the three cannot
drift. The glyph is `aria-hidden`, which keeps the chip's accessible name
exactly the title the mount lane matches on.
Gates: typecheck / lint / check:consumer-types green; pnpm test 127 files /
1342 passed / 9 skipped (3 new chip cases, 1 rewritten built-in case).
Brings in the theme plumbing around #531's API — the `fileIconTheme` pref
thread, the settings row, the 20 dictionaries' keys and the theme loader's
test — so the working tree is a complete, green starting point before the
colored implementation is replaced.
Conflicts (three; resolved by taking this line's side where it had moved on):
- src/client/service.ts: the import block keeps `baseName, extOf` (the
`isNarrowWidth` import the theme branch needed belongs to its own
fresh-session seeding, which main has since rewritten) and the feature-list
doc comment keeps main's "v0.19.0 REMOVED 'floatWindows'" note while
adopting the sharper `fileIcons` wording (matched by exts / names /
folderNames).
- tests/plugin-shape.spec.ts and tests/prefs.spec.ts: main DELETED the store
seeding tests these files used to hold and rewrote the schema assertions
(the `SIDEBAR_PREFS_DEFAULTS` destructuring), so this line's side wins —
the theme branch's re-added blocks describe behaviour main no longer has.
Next commit removes `fileIconTheme` again along with the 563-entry dataset and
its lazy chunk: DSH 0.1.5-rc.2 exports the official `FileTypeIcon` artwork, so
the plugin renders the host's icons instead of shipping its own color table.
DSH 0.1.5 owns the right column (its native Sidebar hosts every tab type
this plugin registers), so the plugin's own right panel, its width drag /
new-session seed prefs, and the free-window feature are gone. The bottom
workbench is the only plugin-owned surface left, and its expand/collapse
control is registered into DSH's session-header utilities list slot (the
header's corner seat belongs to the native sidebar's own control).
- state: one `bottomSplits` tree; `makeDefaultState()` takes no arguments;
`toggleBottomPanel` / `openTabInBottomPane` are the only landing
reducers; `setBottomHeight` and `sanitizeState` share the
`CONVERSATION_MIN` cap (a persisted tall height no longer snaps on the
first drag).
- service: every landing in the workbench (creation or focus) expands it;
`SIDEBAR_FEATURES` drops `'floatWindows'`; the open/close/activate tab
pools cover the single tree.
- shell: `Sidebar.tsx` renders only the bottom workbench; the toggle lives
in `sidebar/bottom-toggle.tsx`; layout-push pushes height only (no width,
no `--dsh-sidebar-width`).
- prefs: `openByDefault` / `defaultWidthPercent` / `changesDiffFloat`
removed from the schema, defaults, client parser, settings page, and all
20 dictionaries; the retired keys in stored documents are ignored.
- tests: free-window specs deleted, panel/float assertions dropped,
remaining suites adapted (124 files / 1287 tests); the mount lane asserts
the header toggle and sweeps the native sidebar's guide page.
- docs: README / README_EN / guide §0,§11 / AGENTS test map.
Phase 2 of the 0.1.5 adaptation: the plugin stops drawing its own right
panel and contributes tab TYPES to DSH's native right Sidebar, which owns
the right column. The bottom workbench (terminal dock) stays plugin-owned.
Registrations (src/client/native/):
- every TabDescriptor becomes a native tab type (kind = descriptor.id, the
default `extension` band) plus a keyed body in `sidebar.right.pane.tab`
and a live chip title in `sidebar.right.pane.tab.title`
- the `editor` type also claims `dsh-resource://file/**`, so it outranks
the built-in `text` preview (fallback) and every file the product opens
lands in the plugin's editor
- the built-in `files` page kind is TAKEN OVER by an extension
registration of the same kind: `openTab('files')` draws the plugin's
explorer, and the built-in resumes when the plugin unregisters
- registrations follow the plugin registry + the side-card settings: a
type registered later (external plugin) gets its native type too, a
disabled type is unregistered (absent from the guide, refuses opens)
Adapter (src/client/native/tab-adapter.tsx):
- one synthetic plugin `SidebarTab` per native tab id, minted from the
native record + navigation params (or the descriptor's own createTab,
which a native guide open bypasses), kept live across navigations and
updateTab writes
- the explorer's per-tab expansion/reveal sets and the per-kind instance
counter, which the plugin's own layout used to hold
Service routing (src/client/service.ts):
- `setSurface` installs the native write face; openTab/openFile land
natively (a path becomes a resource address, a path-less editor open
becomes the `files` page, the rest carry the seed as navigation params),
closeTab/updateTab/activateTab recognise native tab ids
- new optional `OpenTabSeed.target` ('right' default, 'bottom' keeps the
bottom workbench); the bottom panel's own + menu and auto-terminal pass
'bottom'
- src/client/native/surface.ts probes the controller's per-session writes
(`openTabIn`/`openResourceIn`/`closeIn`, not in `ISidebarRight`) and
queues opens for a session whose surface is not mounted yet
Right panel retired behaviourally (Phase 3 deletes the code): Sidebar
renders its bottom workbench only, keeps the panel collapsed, and hides
the right-panel toggle. The panel-specific e2e specs are removed; the
mount lane now drives the native guide (tab sweep), the plugin explorer
inside the native pane (editor/mermaid/README chunks) and the sidechat
host routes.
Verified: pnpm typecheck / lint / build / test (126 files, 1349 tests) /
check:consumer-types, plus pnpm test:mount against a real
@deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.5-alpha.1 host (7/7).
Move the plugin onto the DSH 0.1.5-alpha.1 baseline (peer floor
^0.1.5-alpha.1, CI pinned to the alpha dist-tag) and fix the two host
contract changes that alpha line introduced.
Baseline:
- all @deepseek-ai/dsh-* peer/dev deps -> 0.1.5-alpha.1; optional peer
@deepseek-ai/dsh-client-ui-sidebar-right (declared, unused until the
native-surface phase); devDep @deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-loop (inbox fold)
- dsh.plugin.json engines >=0.1.5-alpha.1; version 0.19.0-alpha.0;
SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION follows
Live assistant stream (assistant/chunk is gone):
- 0.1.5 publishes in-flight model deltas as process-local
agent/assistant-stream frames instead of durable assistant/chunk events
and embeds the settled stream in assistant/message / assistant/attempt.
src/assistant-live.ts folds the frames into a bounded per-session buffer;
sidechat.events serves the current attempt as `live` rows (replaced every
poll, never a delta) and the transcript renders them; the inherited
in-progress snapshot reads message content / attempt stream / live frames.
Cold session reads (persistence.inspect is gone):
- 0.1.5 reads a stored session through an explicit read handle
(open(id,'read') -> handle.read() -> close()). src/session-store.ts owns
that protocol; every cold read (sidechat transcript, cold-resume preset,
session.cwd, changes replay) goes through it.
Dead code and docs:
- drop the remote.session.openWorkspacePath interception: 0.1.5's chat opens
files through ctx.sidebarRight.openResource instead, so the wrapper had no
caller and would hijack the host's "open in app" gesture; the
interceptOpenPath pref, its settings row and its locale keys go with it
- AGENTS.md §3 + external-plugin-guide.md describe the new baseline
- vitest setup bridges Node's localStorage accessor to jsdom's store (the
pre-existing 26 failures on Node >= 22)
- desktop-layout e2e seeds through host RPC and types into the Lexical
composer (0.1.5 replaced the textarea) instead of driving the directory
picker
Verified: pnpm typecheck / lint / build / test (124 files, 1327 tests) /
check:consumer-types, plus pnpm test:mount against a real
@deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.5-alpha.1 host (18/18).
The host-anchor fallback diagnostic strip inlined hardcoded colors
(#f2a1a1 on #1b1b22). Route them through var() chains like the existing
SideChatView.module.css fallback pattern: text/border read
--dsw-alias-state-error-primary (the codebase's canonical error color,
23 existing usages) and the background reads
--dsw-alias-bg-layer-3,var(--dsw-alias-bg-base,...) (elevated surface,
then page base). The old hexes ride as the chain tails, so with no skin
tokens on the page the bar renders byte-identical to before, while any
--dsw-alias-* skin re-themes it (guide §12: no hardcoded colors). The
guide does not cover this strip and tests/theme.spec.ts asserts
effectiveTokenValue semantics only, so neither needs a follow-up.
The core client bundle statically imported every third-language
dictionary (ja/de/fr/…/zh-HK/MO/TW, ~640KB of source — roughly half
the bundle's weight) for a code path most sessions never enter: the
sidebar's own t() only consults zh/en plus the better-locale override
store, and the dicts' ONLY consumer is that store's register() call.
They now ride the existing lazy-chunk machinery as lib/client-locale.js
(fetched from /sidebar/bundle only when better-locale is actually
installed; a generation counter keeps the async registration moot when
the integration effect re-runs or disposes mid-flight). Until the chunk
lands, t() keeps the zh/en chain; the store's own revision bump on
register re-renders the chrome once the dicts arrive.
Core client.js: 1.46MB → 822KB (-44%). The chunk-boundary key-set
check moves to the existing runtime test (every shipped dict stays
key-set-equal to zh).
Boot: loadPrefs and loadExternalDisable each fetched the settings
document, serially, before the first paint — and the second had no
timeout, so a stalled wire kept the sidebar unmounted forever. Both
decisions now ride ONE fetch (loadBootDecision) under the existing
2s race.
GitLens: the 2s silent poll re-listed worktrees on every tick (a
second git process per tick for a list that almost never changes, and
a fresh worktrees array re-render each time). Silent ticks now fetch
only the selected checkout's status; every 15th tick (~30s) re-lists
and re-runs auto-selection, so an agent-created linked checkout is
still picked up mid-session.
ChangesTab: extractFileOps parses every accumulated tool/call (up to
4000 events); the poll ran it once for the badge and the render ran
it AGAIN per tick, and the fresh array defeated the downstream memo.
The fold now runs once per poll and its result rides a ref shared by
badge and render (reset on session switch).
Rendering-layer upgrade for the Side Chat transcript (data already rides
the raw events; the mapping just stopped discarding it):
- Tool rows with a derivable structure now render the host's
ui-primitives atoms instead of a generic double <pre>: bash calls map
onto TerminalBlock (command from call args, output + exit pill
recovered from the result's trailing exit marker), edit/write map onto
DiffBlock (call-time literal replacement, refined by the result meta's
contextual hunks), read maps onto ReadBlock (line-window meta, same
semantic narrowing the host applies). Every narrowing declines to the
generic row on malformed input.
- turn/end now emits a turnSummary row: token usage aggregated from
assistant/message.usage (output summed across steps, input from the
last request) plus the envelope-time wall duration, printed with the
main conversation's formatTokens/formatDurationMs cadence.
- The client entry injects 'connection' (DSH 0.1.2-alpha.2+) and the
thread view shows the host's ConnectionIndicator while the Remote
transport is down; the reconnect control calls reconnect() and a
disconnected -> connected transition pulls the transcript immediately
instead of waiting for the next poll tick.
19 new locale keys propagated across zh/en and all 19 third-language
dictionaries; unit coverage in sidechat-transcript.spec and a new
sidechat-view render spec (jsdom). Real-host mount smoke: 14/14.
DSH 0.1.2-alpha.1 removed the client `ctx.connection.api` face (Remote
gateway migration), so every Side Chat transcript poll (`sessions.history`)
threw TypeError into the view's catch and was swallowed — the tab rendered
an empty transcript forever, silently (no console error, so the mount lane
never caught it). The successor APIs are not a drop-in either:
session/follow|page reject plain session addresses for origin:'subagent'
logs (agent-busy fence) and paging cannot read past the current cursor.
Move the transcript to the plugin's own wire — one transport for every
DSH generation:
- new `sidechat.events` route: live threads read the in-memory
`agent.session.events`; cold threads read `sessionPersistence.inspect`
(both seams exist since 0.1.0-rc.8; alpha.1's inspect returns the
expanded logical log, never the packed chunk-row encoding). The
inherited seed is cut host-side (`threadOwnLogEvents`), polls ride an
`afterSeq` delta, and the response is tail-capped at 8000 events (the
old client walk ceiling).
- SideChatView.fetchThread is single-path; collectOwnEvents (the client
walk) is gone, and so are the ctx.connection mirror and inject entry
(no consumer left).
- transcriptRows keeps re-cutting at session/end-seed as defense in
depth.
Verification:
- unit: sidechat.events route (seed cut, afterSeq delta + never
resurrecting the seed, cap, cold/live sources, 404/503/bad-request),
full suite 1104 passed; typecheck and build (purity gate) green.
- mount e2e vs a real dsh-v0.1.2-alpha.1 source build: 14/14, including
the Side Chat tab sweep polling sidechat.events (performance resource
assertion) and live + post-dispose (persisted) route reads.
- mount e2e vs PATH dsh 0.1.0-rc.8: 14/14 (no regression).
Under the DSH 0.1.1-rc.x web shell, the Cordis plugin loader registers
the provided betterSidebar impl on a neighboring fiber that is not on
the rendering fiber parent chain, so every direct ctx.betterSidebar
read inside the plugin own tree throws
cannot get property "betterSidebar" without inject
and the panel dies inside RenderBoundary on page load (observed with
0.14.0 and 0.15.2 on npm-installed dsh 0.1.1-rc.2). This is the same
failure class #135 fixed for the dsh-web-mobile path; declaring
betterSidebar in the plugin own inject would deadlock the fiber (it
waits for the service before running apply, but the service is only
provided inside apply).
ctx.get() resolves through the root reflect store and is unaffected by
the fiber chain, so all 26 internal reads switch to it. External
consumers keep using ctx.betterSidebar after injecting it, unchanged.
Test mocks gain a matching get() shim.
Reads the aionui-panel settings namespace's rightPanel provider choice: while
it resolves to 'aionui-panel', the whole sidebar does not mount (host
settings.get reports externalDisable, the client mount gate skips mounting
and the link/open-path/turn-tail takeovers step aside). Live via the
settings/document-updated push (best effort; deployments without the
'remote' service fall back to boot-time evaluation). No new user-facing
setting — the aionui panel card remains the single source of truth.
Two failure modes of a sidebar render crash, fixed together:
1. Layout-push leak (root cause): the layout-push effect wrote
--dsh-sidebar-width/--dsh-sidebar-height on document.documentElement
without a cleanup, so ANY unmount of the Sidebar (error-boundary swap,
plugin disable, HMR) left the variables behind and layout.css kept
squeezing #root with a stale margin — "the sidebar cannot be hidden"
until a full reload. The effect now removes both properties on cleanup
(the CSS fallback 0px restores the layout).
2. Crash containment (UX): the root error boundary previously replaced the
WHOLE sidebar — toggle cluster included — with an error strip on any tab
crash. A new shared RenderBoundary (src/client/RenderBoundary.tsx) now
scopes containment per tab: a crashing viewer/editor shows a dismissible
strip inside its own pane while the toggle cluster, the other tabs, and
the panel stay alive. The descriptor is rendered as a real element
(createElement) so even top-level component throws land in the boundary,
not in TabContent's own render. The root boundary remains as the last
resort for Workbench/shell errors.
Tests (tests/sidebar-crash.spec.tsx, jsdom + real Sidebar/store harness):
- unmount clears both CSS variables (red before the fix: 307px leaked)
- a crashing tab is contained: strip in-pane, collapse button alive,
layout push still live
- the retry button recovers a tab whose crash has since been fixed
Full suite: 425 tests pass; tsc --noEmit clean.
- Remove every box-shadow; panel uses the native sidebar fill surface
(--dsw-specific-sidebar-fill) with a hairline border, the collapse
control becomes the native 36px circular rail button, the active tab
uses the native interactive-bg-active fill, and rows/typography follow
the native 34px/14px session-row recipe.
- New 'Side card' settings section in the DSH Settings shell: open-by-
default for new conversations (boolean) and default width share as a
percent of the window (20-60). New sessions seed from these prefs;
existing per-session layouts stay untouched.
- The settings namespace is read/written through the plugin's own fenced
/sidebar routes calling the settings seam in-process: the DSH settings
RPC domain only serves allowlisted namespaces to configuration clients,
so third-party namespaces cannot use connection.api.settings (reads are
silently filtered, writes refused with 'not exposed'). The seam still
persists to the user settings document with revision-guarded writes.
- state: side-store per conversation, injected as a prop instead of a module singleton
- host: schemastery Config (read/media/list/terminal limits) resolved from cordis config
- shape: types/exports/peerDependencies for the web profile + plugin-shape spec
- fix: split divider emits incremental deltas so drags track the cursor 1:1
- docs: README refresh
- cwd resolution falls back (attached header → client summary cwd → process
cwd) across the JSON API, media route and terminal upgrade, so explorer/
git/terminal work from first paint instead of 'session ... has no working
directory' while the web client hydrates the session (refresh-only fix).
- terminal client threads the summary cwd into the WS URL and stops the
reconnect loop after three unreasoned failures, showing the close code
with a manual retry; a 1011+reason refusal already showed the reason.
- white screen: persisted state is structurally sanitized on load (malformed
shapes fall back to default) and the restored width is clamped to the
viewport; the layout margin is capped at the viewport; the client entry
wraps every lifecycle step in try/catch and pins a visible diagnostic bar
on load/mount/interception failure instead of failing silently.
- editor: textarea replaced with CodeMirror 6 — line wrapping, per-extension
syntax highlighting (js/ts/jsx/tsx, json, python, html, css, xml, yaml,
sql, java, c/c++, rust, go, php, shell, toml, nginx, dockerfile,
properties), one-dark theme, dirty dot + Ctrl/Cmd+S save kept.
- tests: +9 (cwd fallback chain over the API route, state sanitization,
language mapping); 36 pass, typecheck + build + vm materialize clean.
The open panel now occupies layout space: #root (the AppFrame grid) gives
up the panel width on the right via margin-right driven by a
--dsh-sidebar-width CSS variable, and only the center column is flexible,
so the squeeze lands exactly on the agent output and the input bar (VSCode
sidebar behavior). The fixed panel covers the vacated strip; expand/
collapse animates the margin and the slide on the same theme duration,
width drags disable the transition, and prefers-reduced-motion is honored.
- Terminals were never destroyed when their tab closed (socket drop only
detached listeners), so the per-session quota (3) filled up and new
terminals failed to mount with 'terminal limit reached'. Now the client
sends a {type:'close'} control frame on tab teardown and the host releases
the pty immediately; a bare socket drop (refresh/switch) keeps the process
for a 30s grace period, and a reconnect within it cancels the pending
close. open() also respawns a process whose shell already exited instead
of reusing a dead handle (input sink).
- The sidebar portal renders inside an error boundary: a render failure now
shows a dismissible error strip with the message (console.error with the
component stack) instead of a silent blank panel.
- Tests: +2 real-pty smoke specs (close releases quota + respawn after
exit; reconnect cancels pending close).
Host half (src/index.ts): /sidebar/api JSON API (session cwd, fs tree/read/
write, git status/diff/stage/commit/branch/log/show), /sidebar/file media
route, /sidebar/ws/terminal WebSocket over node-pty; routes share the /api
trust fence (Host-header loopback or connection.trustedHosts).
Client half (src/client): portal-mounted right panel with a per-session
split-pane workbench (recursive row/col splits, draggable dividers, tab
drag-move), tab bar with max-width 160px + plus-menu (explorer/git/terminal
multi-open rules), lazy file explorer rooted at the session cwd, editable
text editor (dirty dot, Ctrl/Cmd+S), image + Markdown preview, xterm
terminal with reconnect, and a VSCode-style git panel. Per-session state
persists to localStorage (dsh-sidebar:v1:<sessionId>). Intercepts the chat
turn-tail produced-files row (priority -1 chain entry) to open files in the
sidebar. UI styled with the dsh --dsw-* theme tokens and ui-primitives.
Build: tsdown emits the host lib plus the __ModuleLoader__ client bundle
(externals = module table words; xterm/css inlined). Tests: 19 unit + smoke
specs (pure state/tree/git parsers + real git/fs integration).
