The fork was pinned at upstream v0.18.0. That is the entire reason the window
ran TWO sidebars and TWO near-identical panel toggles: DSH 2.0.10 ships its own
right sidebar (@deepseek-ai/dsh-client-ui-sidebar-right), and upstream only
adopted it in v0.19.0-alpha.1 — which arrived after our fork point. v0.19.1 is
also the one upstream line whose support range actually matches our host
(engines.dsh >=0.1.5-rc.1, 14 DSH peers ^0.1.5-rc.1, host = 0.1.5-rc.2), so it
is the only tag the host's startup precheck accepts.
What upstream v0.18.0 → v0.19.1 brings
- src/client/native/{index,surface,tab-adapter}.tsx: every tab the plugin can
draw becomes an OFFICIAL native tab type + body, and an external plugin's
descriptor registered later gets its native type too. This is what retires
the fork's own right panel — and with it the duplicate toggle cluster
(`toggleCluster` is gone from v0.19.1).
- native tab-chip icons via the `sidebar.right.pane.tab.title` seat, coloured
built-in tab icons, file/folder glyphs from DSH's own `FileTypeIcon`.
- guide descriptions (DSH renders them while the guide lists <= 4 entries),
tab bodies that fill the panel, and the 0.1.5-rc.2 adaptation work we were
carrying by hand (peer/devDep pinning, primitives' transitive devDeps).
How the sync was done
Rebuilt the tree from the v0.19.1 tag rather than resolving 53 conflicted
files: our v0.18.0 delta was measured first and is only (a) one mechanical
rename `dsh-better-sidebar` -> `dsh-apes-sidebar` and (b) ten real edits. So:
tag tree + rename (scoped: code/config/scripts/tests/README, while the 46
historical docs/plans records and switch.sh's upstream package name stay
untouched) + re-applied deltas + our apes module.
Fork deltas re-applied on the new base
- src/client/apes/ (icons / locales / tabs): the three apes:* information-layer
tabs (agents / apps / profile), registered through the same BetterSidebarService
as the builtins — which is exactly why they now ride upstream's native adapter
into the official sidebar for free.
- identity: package.json (name/version 1.2.0/description/forkedFrom), dsh.plugin.json
(id/version), SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION 1.2.0, README fork notice,
docs/external-plugin-guide.md.
- scripts/switch.sh + the pnpm switch* scripts (apes <-> upstream two-line switch).
- tests/apes-tabs.spec.ts (unescaped: it starts from the v0.19.1 base).
Dropped
- the Phase A native-registration spike (`apes/native-tabs.tsx` + its spec): it
re-derived by hand exactly what upstream's native layer already does — the
hand-written bridge is dead weight now, and v0.19.1's own e2e/jsdom lanes
cover the same seat contract far better.
- the unused apesProfileGuideDesc key and the two package.json.bak.* backups.
Verified on the new base: typecheck clean; build clean; 1351 passed / 9 skipped
(128 files), up from 1255 on the old base.
The pinned baseline moves to DSH 0.1.5-rc.2 (npm `next`; `latest` is still
rc.1) while the plugin's peer floor stays ^0.1.5-rc.1, so rc.1 hosts need no
DSH upgrade to run this version. Nothing in the rc.1 -> rc.2 delta touches
this plugin: of 300 changed upstream files, the overwhelming majority are
single-line `version` bumps in per-package package.json files, and the only
real code edits are the message-feedback dialog, deliverables card CSS and
the CodeFileIcon SVG artwork split (`code-file-icon-artwork.ts`). There are
zero changes under packages/api|host|session|agent and zero type-surface
changes beyond one line in message-feedback/types.ts, so the adaptation is
the pin itself — devDependencies, the CI mount lane and
SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION — with no plugin-side code change and no runtime
compatibility layer.
- package.json: devDependency pins 0.1.5-rc.1 -> 0.1.5-rc.2 (including
dsh-client-locale, which is still published on the DSH tuple); peers keep
the ^0.1.5-rc.1 floor; version -> 0.19.1
- dsh.plugin.json: version -> 0.19.1; engines.dsh keeps >=0.1.5-rc.1 (same
supported range as the peer floor — the two must not fork)
- pnpm-lock.yaml: lockfile realigned to rc.2
- src/client/service.ts: SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION -> 0.19.1 (tests/service.spec.ts
asserts it equals package.json's version)
Verified locally on macOS arm64 against the rc.2 tree: pnpm install clean,
`pnpm peers check` reports no peer dependency issues, typecheck / lint /
check:consumer-types green, `pnpm test` 126 files / 1312 passed / 9 skipped.
The real-mount smoke (scripts/e2e-mount.sh with DSH_CMD pinned to rc.2) and
the aggregate double-mount lane both pass — evidence recorded in
docs/plans/2026-09-10-dsh-0.1.5-rc.2-adaptation.md.
Baseline moves to DSH 0.1.5-rc.1 — the 0.1.5 line's first release
candidate, and the npm `latest` dist-tag now: peer floor ^0.1.5-rc.1,
devDependency pins, the CI mount-lane pin and dsh.plugin.json engines
all follow. 0.1.5-alpha.2 users stay on v0.19.0-alpha.1.
The upstream delta from alpha.2 is small: 373 changed files, mostly
version bumps, sidebar preview polish and test snapshots. Exactly two
changes touch this plugin, and only one needs work:
- `SidebarRightGuideEntry.description` is back (optional). The native
guide renders it only while it lists at most 4 entries; a longer list
drops every description. The plugin restores `TabDescriptor.description`
and the six built-in `guideDesc*` lines (20 dictionaries) verbatim from
0b6ac5d^, but deliberately does NOT restore the old generic
`nativeGuideDesc` fallback: the host has no fallback of its own, so a
descriptor that declares none now ships no `description` field at all
and renders as a clean title-only capsule.
Consequence worth knowing: the plugin contributes six guide entries, so
the default composition is over the 4-entry limit and shows titles only.
The mount lane proves the restored field end to end by shrinking the
enabled set to three types through the plugin's own settings route
(scratch profile only) and requiring the Files capsule to grow its line.
- The built-in `files` type declares a guide description again and uses a
coloured folder glyph; the plugin owns that kind, so nothing to do.
Verified unchanged from alpha.2 (so nobody re-checks them): the global
main-panel model, the file address grammar (util/workspace-path changed
only its package.json), the native tab-body host contract (.paneBody is
still a block scroller with a definite height), the core/agent/session/
subagent host APIs and the ui-primitives export surface.
Restore caveat fixed in the lane: the settings route merges patches
key-wise, so undoing a temporary `tabsEnabled` change by posting the
original (empty) map leaves the disabled keys behind — the e2e restores
every key it touched explicitly.
Baseline moves to DSH 0.1.5-alpha.2 only (peer floor ^0.1.5-alpha.2,
CI pin, manifest engines); alpha.1 users stay on v0.19.0-alpha.0.
Host-contract changes handled:
- the native guide entry lost its `description` field (entries are
icon+title capsules now): `TabDescriptor.description` and the six
`guideDesc*` keys plus the `nativeGuideDesc` fallback are removed.
- the file address grammar changed: `fileAddressFor` always returns a
session-scoped address (absolute paths keep their leading `/`),
`parseFileAddress` is prefix-based and strips `?`/`#`. The plugin's
purity-gated mirror follows.
- global main panels replaced the `conversation` root slot with the
keyed `main` slot (`main.conversation`): the bottom workbench's
center-column locator now accepts both keys and skips
`display: contents` slot hosts.
Fixes a pre-existing fill bug the alpha.2 probe made obvious: the native
tab body host is a block scroller with a definite height, so tab roots
that only declared `flex: 1` collapsed to content height and the side
chat composer drifted off the pane bottom. The native adapter now wraps
every tab body in a `height: 100%` column flex host.
Also promotes the dependencies `dsh-client-ui-primitives@0.1.5-alpha.2`
dropped from its manifest (anser / shiki / mdast-util-* / micromark-* /
katex / @shikijs/langs) and the newly unmet `dsh-session-persistence`
peer into devDependencies.
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).
Graduate from the alpha track to the stable channel:
- Baseline: CI mount pin, dsh.plugin.json engines floor, and every
@deepseek-ai/* peer floor / devDependencies pin move to 0.1.2-rc.1
(published on the `next` dist-tag). alpha.5 -> rc.1 is a pure version
bump in the harness (all package.json "version" lines, zero source
delta), so no code adaptation; every host contract was re-verified
unchanged and the real-host mount smoke passes.
- dsh-client-locale resumed publishing; its trailing-pin exception is
gone — peers and devDeps align at 0.1.2-rc.1 (pnpm peers check clean).
- Version: fold the unpublished v0.18.1-alpha.0 / v0.19.0-alpha.0 bumps
into the v0.18.0 stable release; SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION follows
package.json (asserted by tests/service.spec.ts).
- Docs: README/README_EN badges + channel notes + a full "since v0.17.1"
changelog entry (the two folded alpha numbers are annotated), AGENTS.md
§2/§3 baseline wording, external-plugin-guide version line, and the
e2e-host-protocol header's re-verified list gains 0.1.2-rc.1.
- pins: CI mount-gate CLI, dsh.plugin.json engines floor, and the
@deepseek-ai/* peer floor / devDependencies baseline move to
0.1.2-alpha.5 (dsh-client-locale trails at 0.1.2-alpha.3 — no such
release upstream; ^0.1.2-alpha.3 already accepts the alpha.5 runtime)
- code: migrate the alpha.4 Session.events removal to snapshotEvents()
(sidechat transcript live reads, fork inheritance, jobs.output replay,
subagent activity) and drop the seedLength meta field the host removed
from CreateAgentOptions.meta
- gates: pnpm peers check clean, typecheck + 1137 unit tests green,
real-host mount smoke 14/14 on npm-published 0.1.2-alpha.5
Replace the pnpm-workspace.yaml overrides with the plain-repo pattern:
install every peer the dev tree touches (dsh-attachment, dsh-code-runtime,
dsh-scope, dsh-session-projection, dsh-system-prompt, dsh-user-approval,
dsh-util-time) as direct devDependencies pinned to the baseline, same
as the thirteen already there. Root-level hoisting makes pnpm resolve
the peers natively (peers check: zero unmet, no global forcing), and
the list extends the existing bump workflow instead of introducing a
new mechanism.
Verified: typecheck clean, 107 test files / 1137 tests green, and the
real-host mount smoke passes 14/14 against @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.2-alpha.3.
Point-by-point audit of all 117 commits between alpha.2 and alpha.3:
every host contract this plugin relies on (token auth, slash RPC,
MarkdownText labels, the event-stream/persistence APIs behind
sidechat.events, SettingsNamespaceInput, SUBAGENT_DESCRIPTOR_VERSION
(still 3), dsh-client-store, the profile loader, the node-pty pin) is
unchanged, so no plugin code needed rewiring. alpha.3's breaking
changes (required BeginSubmissionInput.mode, the renamed
attachment-invalid subagent error, the removed SQLite persistence
backend, the identity-gated projection change feed) do not touch this
plugin.
What did need adapting was the dependency tree: the alpha.3 npm
artifacts ship with workspace-era metadata that does not match their
published code —
- dsh-subagent@0.1.2-alpha.3 imports `admitPromptContent` from
@deepseek-ai/dsh-attachment without declaring that dependency, so
resolution floats to a stale 0.1.1-rc.1 copy that lacks the export
(broke 5 test files at load time);
- six transitive peers (dsh-scope, dsh-session-projection,
dsh-system-prompt, dsh-user-approval, dsh-util-time, dsh-code-runtime)
drifted to pre-alpha.3 versions against the ^0.1.2-alpha.3 ranges the
alpha.3 packages declare;
- the alpha.3 line peers on @deepseek-ai/cordis ^4.0.2 (was ^4.0.1).
Fix: pin the seven stragglers via pnpm-workspace.yaml overrides (with
a note to drop them once upstream fixes its metadata), narrow the
cordis peer to ^4.0.2, and bump the baseline pins — CI mount gate,
dsh.plugin.json engines, peer/devDependencies, README badges, plus
SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION in lockstep.
Verified on the npm-published @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.2-alpha.3:
typecheck clean, 107 test files / 1137 tests green, `pnpm peers check`
reports zero unmet peers, and the real-host mount smoke passes 14/14.
DSH 0.1.2-alpha.2 is on npm under the `alpha` dist-tag, so the CI mount
pin and the @deepseek-ai/* devDependencies baseline move up from
0.1.1-rc.1/rc.2 (the dead dsh-client-runtime devDep goes away with
them). Verified end-to-end against a real 0.1.2-alpha.2 host: full
vitest suite (1106), typecheck, build/pack, consumer type surface, and
the headless mount smoke 14/14 — the token URL, slash RPC and
MarkdownText labels contracts are unchanged from alpha.1.
- dsh-settings dropped the runtime `settingsNamespace` export:
namespaces are validated at compile time (SettingsNamespaceInput), so
the host passes the 'dsh-better-sidebar' constant directly and the
fake settings service in smoke.spec casts to the branded type.
- dsh-subagent bumped SUBAGENT_DESCRIPTOR_VERSION 2 -> 3: the version is
stamped by the host package; the sidechat seed assertion now follows
the constant instead of pinning a literal.
- Restored SessionEvent.ignorable and the RemoteError wrapping were
verified to have no impact on this plugin.
- e2e scratch profiles (e2e-mount.sh / e2e-aggregate-mount.sh) add
'@deepseek-ai/*' to minimumReleaseAgeExclude (mirroring the repo
root): alpha releases are often <24h old when the lane runs, which
pnpm 11's default minimumReleaseAge would refuse to install.
- vitest excludes .worktrees/** — local task worktrees carried stale
code against the shared node_modules and broke on the devDeps bump.
- Version lockstep 0.17.2 (package.json, dsh.plugin.json,
SIDEBAR_SERVICE_VERSION, README/AGENTS/guide docs).
#1 GitView: hide/disable 'open in editor' for external linked worktrees
(path outside session workspace is rejected by the fence); add
isWithinWorkspace client helper for the gate.
#2 DiffTab: untracked diff read resolves against diff.repoRoot (child-repo
paths are repo-root-relative, not cwd-relative); fs.read route threads
selectedRepoOf into resolveGitPath so the host resolves the right base.
#3 GitView: chooseRepo handler mirrors chooseWorktree — clears status/
history/log and bumps generation before async refresh, preventing stale
rows from acting on the newly selected repository.
#4 git.ts: repoRoots/repoRoot compare roots via pathIdentity() (platform-
aware) instead of raw includes(), fixing win32 forward/backslash
mismatch that silently fell back to roots[0].
#5 markdown-images: mask fenced code blocks and inline code spans before
rewriting; only rewrite reference definitions whose label is actually
referenced by image syntax (not plain links). +3 tests.
#6 package.json: downgrade unrun ^0.3.1 → ^0.2.39 (0.3.x requires Node
^22.13, incompatible with declared engines >=20).
#7 market-manifest.spec: shell:true on win32 so execFileSync resolves the
pnpm .cmd shim.
#8 smoke.spec: build html-route URL via encodeHtmlUrl() (production
encoder) so the Windows drive separator is correct.
#9 index.ts git.worktrees route: thread selectedRepoOf so a workspace
container's selected child repo's linked worktrees appear.
* feat(editor): file tree 'open with' submenu (external editors, pin, SSH-remote, custom editors)
The file tree right-click menu gains an 'Open with >' submenu with the
resource manager (reveal in file manager), VS Code, Cursor and Zed, plus
user-defined custom editors (name + URL template + VSCode-family flag).
Each submenu row carries a pushpin that promotes the target to a direct
top-level menu item.
A configurable SSH host (settings: Files card gear) switches VSCode-family
openers to <scheme>://vscode-remote/ssh-remote+<host>/<path> and hides
host-local targets (file manager / Zed / non-VSCode custom editors).
External opens run through the new fenced /sidebar/api/open.external route
which spawns the platform opener with an argv array (no shell); the client
never navigates raw scheme URLs itself. The settings seam's render panel now
appends after the declarative rows instead of replacing them.
* feat(editor): polish open-with menu UI — brand icons, pushpin, chevron, row alignment
- Submenu rows: the custom label is now a block-level flex row filling the
primitives itemLabel, so the pushpin docks at the row's far right (matching
the trailing check of every other menu); menu row icons normalized to 16px
(DSH native menus use 16, ours were 14).
- The submenu parent row gains a right-aligned chevron (the primitives Menu
renders no arrow for submenu parents).
- Icons via react-icons: codicons VscPin/VscPinned pushpins (replacing the
hand-drawn pin), VscFile/VscFolder/VscFolderOpened tree glyphs (replacing
the </> file mark), VscLinkExternal for the open-with parent and the
browser tab's open-external button (globally), SiCursor/SiZedindustries
brand silhouettes; the VS Code mark is inlined from simple-icons@11.0.0
(CC0) as IconVscode16 since later simple-icons releases dropped it. All
monochrome currentColor to follow the active skin.
- tsdown: pin react-icons si/vsc to their ESM entries via resolve.alias —
the package's exports map lists require before import, so the shared
conditionNames picked the unshakeable CJS entry and bloated the core
bundle by ~6.4 MB; tree-shaken it now adds only ~12 KB.
- 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
The app resolves light/dark from prefers-color-scheme and the user's
choice (body[data-ds-dark-theme]), but xterm and CodeMirror were pinned to
hardcoded dark themes — a light-mode user got a dark card inside a light
panel. New theme.ts reads the resolved scheme + token values and notifies
on flips (the presenter toggles the body attribute); the terminal now takes
its surface colors from the tokens and a curated one-dark/one-light ANSI
palette, and the editor gets a token-driven surface with the same curated
syntax palettes. Both re-theme in place on a scheme flip: the terminal
re-applies its theme, the editor reconfigures a Compartment holding only
the scheme-dependent extensions, so the document, undo history and scroll
survive. one-dark is dropped (superseded by the curated highlight style).
- 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.
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).
