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).
DSH itself is still on its 0.1.2-alpha line (npm `alpha` dist-tag), so the
plugin mirrors it: v0.18.0-alpha.0 publishes under the npm `alpha`
dist-tag and supports DSH 0.1.2-alpha.x only. Stable-DSH (0.1.0-rc.8 ~
0.1.1-rc.2) users stay on v0.17.1 (npm `latest`). Verified end-to-end
against a real 0.1.2-alpha.2 host: full vitest suite, typecheck,
build/pack, consumer type surface, and the headless mount smoke 14/14
(the prerelease version also passes `dsh plugin add file:`).
- peer floor raised `^0.1.0-rc.8` -> `^0.1.2-alpha.2` (the mount install
no longer warns: the old floor could not semver-match a prerelease
host); dsh.plugin.json engines.dsh `>=0.1.2-alpha.2`.
- Dropped the pre-alpha compatibility layer:
- e2e host RPC collapsed from the dot/slash dual dialect to slash-only
(rpcAttempt; the 404-probe negotiation and its cache are gone), and
parseLaunchUrl now requires the ?token= launch URL;
- MarkdownText labels collapsed to the nested single shape (the cast
became unnecessary against the alpha.2 declarations);
- the defunct `@deepseek-ai/dsh-client-runtime` row is gone from the
chunk externals allowlist (chunk-loader / tsdown / two specs) and
from dsh.client.inject.
- market-manifest guard now allows an exact prerelease version (alpha
cuts are not the market's verified `latest` target); release.yml picks
the npm dist-tag from the version (prerelease -> `alpha`, else
`latest`) so an alpha can never hijack `latest`.
- Docs retargeted: AGENTS.md §2/§3, README/README_EN badges + v0.18.0
-alpha.0 section + install note (`dsh-better-sidebar@alpha`), guide.
