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).
* fix(sidechat): split context injection from the first user message
The first composer message rode the same user/message event as the side
boundary prompt (+ parked snapshot), and the transcript dropped that whole
row by its boundary prefix — swallowing the user's first question.
Deliver first contact as TWO messages: the boundary+snapshot rides
agent.inject (queued next-step context, claimed first at the opening step,
no wake) stamped with source kind 'plugin', and the question is the
follow-up that wakes the driver. The log records injection and question as
separate events; the transcript maps injections (plugin-sourced, or the
legacy boundary-prefix blob of pre-split threads) onto a collapsible
injection row and renders genuine user messages — the first one included —
as user rows. boundaryDelivered still recognizes the injection by its
unchanged boundary-prefix opening.
* feat(sidechat): codex-style collapsible rows and creating shimmer
Tool calls, thinking and context injections now share one quiet
single-line chrome (chevron + label + a one-line argument summary) that
expands into an indented body on a hairline thread — no cards or fills.
Streaming labels and the creating hero shimmer (shimmer = generating);
failed tools go danger; reduced-motion stills every loop.
* fix(sidebar): debounce subagent auto-open past the title frame
The host delivers a new child's origin and title in separate frames, so a
Side Chat thread's first visible frame lacks its 'Side: ' label and
tripped the 0→N auto-open — every thread creation popped the task page.
The trigger now rearms for 500ms and re-evaluates the original baseline
against the live snapshot, by which time the title filter recognizes the
thread. Genuine subagents still auto-open, half a second later.
* fix(sidechat): render legacy threads' first message as its own bubble
Threads created before the host split still log the boundary (+snapshot)
and the question as ONE 'user' message; the transcript mapped that row
wholly onto the injection row, so the user's first question only appeared
inside the expansion. The boundary prompt is a known constant, so the
legacy row now splits THERE: the injection row keeps the prompt, the
remainder renders as the user's real message (a pre-split snapshot, when
present, rides along — the common case is a pure question). Row React keys
become kind:seq so the split's two rows never collide.
