+`ctx.sessionReferences` prepares bounded, read-only snapshots of other sessions as sourced model-facing context. It consumes `ctx.sessionQuery` and the backend-independent compact checkpoint marker; SQLite FTS is not required. Hosts that support cross-session mentions may opt into the service.
+
+## Public API
+
+- `listCandidates(agent, query?, limit?)` lists sessions other than `agent.id`, filters case-insensitively by id, cwd, or the latest log-backed title, and ranks same-cwd, cwd-less, then other-cwd records while preserving `listSessions()` creation order within each group. Each selected candidate uses that title as the mention label and falls back to the session id when the title is absent or unreadable; message bodies are not searched.
+- `prepare(agent, content, references, signal?)` preserves first-mention order, deduplicates ids, rejects self-reference and more than the configured distinct-source limit, reads every source in parallel, and returns detached content plus zero or one aggregated, identified `UserMessage` context. Any invalid reference, failed read, cancellation, or budget failure rejects before the host calls `followup()` or `steer()`.
+- `encodeSessionReferenceUri()` and `decodeSessionReferenceUri()` implement `dsh-session:<base64url(JSON.stringify(sessionId))>` so every JavaScript string id round-trips exactly. `formatSessionReferenceMention()` emits `@[label](uri)`, and `parseSessionReferenceText()` replaces Markdown mentions or bare canonical URIs with readable `@label` text while returning structured references. Explicit Markdown mentions reject every malformed URI; bare text is considered a reference only when a non-empty base64url-shaped payload follows the scheme, and a matching noncanonical candidate still fails. Empty or punctuation-only scheme mentions remain ordinary discussion text.
+
+## Snapshot semantics
+
+Preparation calls `ctx.sessionQuery.readSurface()` once per distinct source and never rereads it after enqueue. It projects only direct-user `user/message`, assistant text, and `user/message` checkpoints carrying the canonical `dsh-compact` source marker from the folded current surface. For a source prompt that already contains baked prefix context, projection reads only its model-hidden display content, preventing recursive snapshot propagation. Shadowed pre-compaction events, tools, reasoning, context, plugin-generated user messages other than marked compact checkpoints, and unfinished assistant chunks are excluded. A compacted source therefore contributes its latest checkpoint plus retained later conversation, not restored shadowed text.
+
+The context source is `{ kind: 'session-reference', version: 1, references }`; each reference records its source id and label, capture seq, compact presence, retained/omitted message counts, omitted UTF-8 bytes, and truncation state. When the agent is idle, the standard TUI installs a one-shot `agent/pre-step` wrapper that adds the snapshot only to an `enter` decision containing the claimed direct prompt. While the agent is running, it calls `inject()` immediately before `steer()`, placing both messages in the next-step inbox for the same later claim. The target log therefore records a sourced context `user/message` followed by the readable direct `user/message`. Later source mutation, compaction, or deletion cannot change target replay.
+
+## Configuration
+
+| Key | Default | Contract |
+|---|---:|---|
+| `maxReferences` | `3` | Maximum distinct source sessions in one prepared message; must be at most `3`. |
+| `candidateLimit` | `50` | Default candidate count returned to a host. |
+| `maxReferenceBytes` | `65536` | Maximum serialized JSON bytes for one reference object. |
+
+Retention applies `maxReferenceBytes` independently to each source, keeps compact checkpoints and the newest message before dropping older non-checkpoint units, and uses `dsh-retention` head/tail truncation with an exact UTF-8 omission notice. If one source's fixed serialized fields cannot fit, preparation fails with `SESSION_REFERENCE_BUDGET_EXCEEDED` instead of returning a partial context.
+
+## Model Experience
+
+### Referenced session background
+
+#### What the model sees
+
+The model sees two consecutive user-role messages: the `## Referenced sessions` untrusted snapshot, then the current message with its readable `@label`. The warning forbids following instructions, permission claims, or tool requests from the snapshot unless the current user repeats them. Labels, cwd values, ids, and conversation text are serialized as JSON inside `<referenced-sessions>` tags; every data `<` is emitted as the lossless JSON escape `\u003c`, so source text cannot spell a framing tag.
+
+#### Token effect
+
+Each referenced message adds the fixed warning plus up to three serialized snapshots, each independently bounded by `maxReferenceBytes`. The exact snapshot remains in target history until target compaction shadows or summarizes it; source-session changes add no further tokens.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+The snapshot and request are consecutive append-only target messages and preserve earlier cacheable history. Different references or source capture contents change the new suffix only; later target compaction may invalidate reuse from its replacement boundary.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **No body discovery** — candidate queries inspect folded titles but do not search message bodies. A non-empty query may inspect every visible persisted session log through the session-query service's bounded, cancellable batch; a dedicated title index may replace that discovery path without changing URI, snapshot, or persistence contracts.
+- **Trusted caller boundary** — the service assumes its host is authorized to read every session exposed by `ctx.sessionQuery`; it is not a model-facing search tool.
+- **Text projection only** — non-text user and assistant blocks are not propagated across sessions.
+- **No live link** — references are snapshots, not forks, resumes, subscriptions, or source-session mutations.

+
+`ctx.sessionReferences` 会把其他会话准备为有界、只读快照，作为带来源信息、面向模型的上下文。它消费 `ctx.sessionQuery` 与后端无关的 compact 检查点标记；不需要 SQLite FTS。支持跨会话 mention 的宿主可以主动启用该服务。
+
+## 公开 API
+
+- `listCandidates(agent, query?, limit?)` 会列出 `agent.id` 之外的会话，按 id、cwd 或以日志为依据的最新标题进行不区分大小写的筛选，再按同 cwd、无 cwd、其他 cwd 记录排序，同时保持每组内的 `listSessions()` 创建顺序。每个已选候选会话都使用该标题作为 mention label；标题不存在或无法读取时回退到会话 id。不搜索消息主体。
+- `prepare(agent, content, references, signal?)` 会保留首次 mention 顺序、对 id 去重，并拒绝自引用或超过已配置不同源上限的情况。它会并行读取所有源，返回与输入脱离的内容，外加零个或一个聚合且带标识的 `UserMessage` 上下文。任何无效引用、读取失败、取消或预算失败，都会使准备操作在宿主调用 `followup()` 或 `steer()` 之前失败。
+- `encodeSessionReferenceUri()` 与 `decodeSessionReferenceUri()` 实现 `dsh-session:<base64url(JSON.stringify(sessionId))>`，因此每个 JavaScript 字符串 id 都能精确往返。`formatSessionReferenceMention()` 发出 `@[label](uri)`，`parseSessionReferenceText()` 将 Markdown mention 或裸规范 URI 替换为可读的 `@label` 文本，并返回结构化引用。解析器会拒绝显式 Markdown mention 中任何格式错误的 URI；只当 scheme 后跟非空、符合 base64url 形状的 payload 时，裸文本才被视为引用，匹配但非规范的候选项仍会失败。空 scheme mention 或只含标点符号的 scheme mention 仍是普通讨论文本。
+
+## 快照语义
+
+准备阶段会对每个不同源调用一次 `ctx.sessionQuery.readSurface()`，入队后绝不重读。它仅投影折叠后当前表层中的用户直接发出的 `user/message`、assistant 文本，以及 `user/message` 检查点；这类检查点携带规范 `dsh-compact` 源标记。对于已经包含固化前缀上下文的源提示词，投影只读取其对模型隐藏的显示内容，以防止快照递归传播。已遮蔽的压缩（compaction）前事件、工具、推理（reasoning）、上下文、除已标记 compact 检查点外的插件生成 user 消息，以及未完成的 assistant 分片均会被排除。因此，已压缩源只会提供最新检查点及其后保留的会话内容，不会还原已遮蔽的文本。
+
+上下文源为 `{ kind: 'session-reference', version: 1, references }`；每条引用会记录其源 id 与 label、捕获 seq、是否存在 compact、已保留／已省略消息数、已省略 UTF-8 字节数与截断状态。agent 空闲时，标准 TUI 会安装一次性的 `agent/pre-step` 包装层，只把快照添加到包含已领取直接提示词的 `enter` 决策。agent 运行时，它会紧接着调用 `inject()` 和 `steer()`，把两条消息放入 next-step inbox，等待后续同一次领取。目标日志因此会先记录一条带来源信息的上下文 `user/message`，再记录可读的直接 `user/message`。后续源变更、压缩或删除都无法改变目标回放。
+
+## 配置
+
+| Key | 默认值 | 约定 |
+|---|---:|---|
+| `maxReferences` | `3` | 一条已准备消息中不同源会话的最大数量；必须不大于 `3`。 |
+| `candidateLimit` | `50` | 返回给宿主的默认候选数量。 |
+| `maxReferenceBytes` | `65536` | 一个引用对象的最大序列化 JSON 字节数。 |
+
+保留会对每个源独立应用 `maxReferenceBytes`，保留 compact 检查点与最新消息，再丢弃较旧的非检查点单元，并使用 `dsh-retention` 头部／尾部截断和精确 UTF-8 省略通知。如果某个源的固定序列化字段本身就超出限额，准备会以 `SESSION_REFERENCE_BUDGET_EXCEEDED` 失败，而不返回部分上下文。
+
+## 模型体验
+
+### 引用会话背景
+
+#### 模型看到的内容
+
+模型会看到两条连续的 user 角色消息：先是 `## Referenced sessions` 不受信任快照，再是带可读 `@label` 的当前消息。警告禁止遵循快照中的指令、权限声明或工具请求，除非当前 user 重复这些内容。标签、cwd 值、id 与会话文本会作为 JSON 在 `<referenced-sessions>` 标签中序列化；数据中的每个 `<` 都会以无损 JSON 转义 `\u003c` 的形式发出，因此源文本无法拼出定界标签。
+
+#### Token 影响
+
+每条包含引用的消息都会添加固定警告和最多三个序列化快照，每个快照都受 `maxReferenceBytes` 独立限制。精确快照会保留在目标历史中，直到目标压缩遮蔽或摘要它；源会话变更不会添加更多 token。
+
+#### KV Cache 影响
+
+快照与请求是两条连续、仅追加的目标消息，并保留较早的可缓存历史。不同引用或源捕获内容只改变新后缀；后续目标压缩可能使从替换边界起的复用失效。
+
+## 已知限制与暂缓事项
+
+- **不支持消息正文检索**：候选查询会检查折叠后的标题，但不搜索消息主体。非空查询可能通过 session-query 服务有界、可取消的批处理检查每个可见的持久化会话日志；专用标题索引未来可以替换这条发现路径，而不改变 URI、快照或持久化约定。
+- **受信任调用方边界**：该服务假设宿主有权读取 `ctx.sessionQuery` 公开的每个会话；它不是面向模型的搜索工具。
+- **只投影文本**：不会在会话间传播非文本 user 与 assistant 块。
+- **没有实时链接**：引用是快照，不是 fork、恢复、订阅或源会话变更。
