+## Summary
+
+`dsh-subagent-in-process-driver` is the shared run driver behind the two in-process subagent backends: it creates one child agent through the host's agent factory, applies per-child customization, drives one task to completion, and returns the child's own final output with a single quiescent disposal path. Spawn calls it with no session seed; fork calls it with the parent's completed-turn prefix. It is a library, not a standalone feature: provider backends call `startInProcessRun`, and nothing in a composition configures it. Read this page to understand the run lifecycle both in-process backends share.

+## Use this package
+
+You reach this package through a provider backend, not a composition: `dsh-subagent-spawn-in-process` and `dsh-subagent-fork-in-process` each call `startInProcessRun(request, options)` and own everything around it. This page documents the lifecycle both share so you can read one backend's behavior and reason about the other.
+
+### What one run provides
+
+One call starts and drives one one-shot child. Fulfillment means the child is already published in `ctx.agents` and the caller owns the returned run; a rejected start has already quiesced the unpublished creation, so no half-created child survives. The run exposes the child's id and live agent, a `result` promise, and a `dispose()` that stops the loop, removes the agent and session, and unwinds scoped registrations.
+
+### The one input
+
+`InProcessRunOptions` is `{ seed?: SessionEvent[] }` — a fork seed of balanced parent events. Spawn omits it; fork supplies the completed-turn prefix and records its length so the result reader never mistakes seeded parent messages for child output.
+
+### What the child gets
+
+The child receives the parent's working-directory/session lineage and inherits the parent provider, model, reasoning effort, and output-token cap unless `request.agentOptions` overrides them. It gets a fresh flat registration scope: parent tool restrictions and authority are not imported. A run carries the parent's explicit sandbox override and `'never'` approval pin into the child and appends a per-run descriptor inside the child's initial turn.

+## Understand the implementation
+
+<details>
+<summary>Implementation internals — click to expand</summary>
+
+This section explains the driver's lifecycle contract and the structured-output runtime; the observable behavior is covered in [Use this package](#use-this-package).
+
+### Start contract
+
+The driver follows this sequence:
+
+1. Validate the parent depth and optional absolute `maxDepth`, then derive child depth as parent depth plus one and persist it in the child session header.
+2. Create the child through the host agent factory with the caller's required signal threaded into the creation transaction.
+3. During that transaction's unpublished setup window, install the requested persona, tool restriction, and structured-output runtime.
+4. Publish the child, retain the returned handle, and drive one task.
+5. Read the child's own output — its last non-empty assistant message, or its accumulated assistant text when none exists — and the final durable turn reason from the complete owned run, excluding any fork seed.
+
+### Cancellation and ownership
+
+The required request signal covers both startup and the live run. Before publication, the creation transaction observes it, rolls back, and rejects; the driver re-checks once after publication to close the handoff race, then installs a minimal live-run listener. After fulfillment the caller owns the run: provider unload does not revoke it, and `dispose()` removes the abort listener, records cancellation, and delegates to the handle's memoized quiescence transaction, which stops the loop, removes the agent and session, and unwinds scoped registrations. Cancellation owns every non-completed in-flight outcome and reports `aborted`; an already-completed turn remains completed.
+
+### Structured output
+
+`attachStructuredRuntime(childCtx, schema)` installs the whole contract in the child's scope: a `structured_output` tool validates and stages the model's value against the requested schema; a trailing first-party order-9900 system-prompt section tells the child the tool call is the terminal answer; a `tools/result` observer commits a staged value only after the authoritative final tool result succeeds, including the enclosing `run_code` result for PTC mode sub-dispatch; and a monotonic tool guard blocks later calls after capture. A clean turn that never commits the required value reports `error`; the driver does not re-prompt. All registrations ride the child fiber and disappear with it.
+
+### Source map

+
+<a id="model-experience"></a>
+## Model Experience
+
+### Child-agent request
+
+#### What the model sees
+
+The shared driver sends the task verbatim as the child's user message and, when requested, shadows the persona and restricts global tool schemas, lookup, execution, and PTC mode SDK bindings in the unpublished child's fresh scope; parent restrictions are not inherited. Tool-guidance plugins can use the assembly scope to omit unavailable guidance; arbitrary static sections are not rewritten by the driver. Spawn supplies no history; fork supplies its balanced seed.
+
+#### Token effect
+
+Child input is isolated from the parent and grows through the child's own steps. A persona changes repeated prompt text; filtering changes schema or generated SDK cost, and scope-aware guidance changes with the visible capabilities.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+Independent of the parent request cache. The child's later history is append-only, while persona, tool-filter, generated-SDK, provider, or model changes establish a different child prefix.
+
+### Structured-output system prompt, schema, and results
+
+#### What the model sees
+
+A structured run adds the structured-output instruction below. It also adds a child-scoped `structured_output` definition with the requested schema and the exact description `Report your final structured result. Call this exactly once, when your answer is complete; the arguments must match this tool's parameter schema exactly.` This runtime-only definition is outside the generated shipped [tool package map](../../../docs/tool-catalog.md#tool-package-map). Its canonical acknowledgement is `{ recorded: true }`, rendered as `Structured output recorded.`; a later call becomes ``Error: structured output already recorded: the run is complete, so `<tool>` is not executed``.
+
+##### Structured-output instruction
+
+```markdown
+When you have your final answer, you MUST report it by calling the `structured_output` tool with arguments matching its parameter schema exactly. Do not finish with a plain text answer: only the tool call counts as your result.
+```
+
+#### Token effect
+
+Fixed instruction and capability tokens are paid only by that child. Result text enters the child history, while the captured value alone becomes the parent result.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+Prefix-stable inside the child while the structured-output instruction and schema are unchanged. Changing the schema or capability may invalidate the child's cache from that early segment; results append in child and parent histories.
+
+### Parent start error, indirectly
+
+#### What the model sees
+
+Through `dsh-tool-subagent`, invalid depth state becomes exactly `Error: agent subagentDepth must be a non-negative safe integer`, `Error: subagent child depth exceeds the safe-integer range`, or `Error: subagent depth <attempted> exceeds maxDepth <max>`. A pre-publication cancellation passes its abort reason through the registry's `Error: <message>` wrapper.
+
+#### Token effect
+
+Zero tokens on a successful start; only the failed parent tool call retains this text.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+Append-only; newly visible content follows the reusable request prefix and does not invalidate existing KV-cache entries.
+
+### Parent result, indirectly
+
+#### What the model sees
+
+The driver extracts only the child's own last assistant output or captured structured value; seeded parent messages and intermediate child work do not become the result.
+
+#### Token effect
+
+The parent receives one data-dependent result through the consumer; all other child tokens stay in the child session.
+
+#### KV Cache effect
+
+Append-only; newly visible content follows the reusable request prefix and does not invalidate existing KV-cache entries.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+<a id="known-limitations-and-deferred-work"></a>
+
+
+These limits define what an in-process one-shot run cannot do; they are current package constraints.
+
+- **Runs expose no `sendMessage`/`resume`** — the optional runtime capabilities are absent on in-process one-shot runs.
+- **Structured capture accepts the `defineTool` schema subset only** — unsupported JSON Schema constructs fail before the child is created; a provider needing a broader schema vocabulary requires a different runtime.

+
+## 概述
+
+`dsh-subagent-in-process-driver` 是两个进程内 subagent 后端共用的运行驱动器：它通过宿主的 agent（智能体）工厂创建一个子 agent，应用按子 agent 的定制，把一项任务驱动到完成，并以单一完全停稳的 dispose（资源释放）路径返回子 agent 自身的最终输出。spawn 调用它时不传入会话初始内容；fork 调用它时传入父级已完成轮次的前缀。它是库而非独立功能：提供方后端调用 `startInProcessRun`，组合中没有任何东西配置它。阅读本页可理解两个进程内后端共享的运行生命周期。

+## 使用本包
+
+你通过提供方后端而非组合到达本包：`dsh-subagent-spawn-in-process` 与 `dsh-subagent-fork-in-process` 各自调用 `startInProcessRun(request, options)` 并拥有其外围的一切。本页记录两者共享的生命周期，使你读懂一个后端的行为后即可推断另一个。
+
+### 一次运行提供什么
+
+一次调用启动并驱动一个一次性子 agent。调用兑现意味着子 agent 已发布到 `ctx.agents`，调用方拥有返回的运行；启动被拒绝时，未发布的创建已经完全停稳，因此不会有创建到一半的子 agent 存活。运行暴露子 agent 的 id 与在线 agent、一个 `result` promise，以及一个 `dispose()`——它会停止循环、移除 agent 与会话，并撤销作用域内的注册。
+
+### 唯一输入
+
+`InProcessRunOptions` 的形态为 `{ seed?: SessionEvent[] }`——fork 的已配平父级事件初始内容。spawn 省略该值；fork 提供已完成轮次前缀并记录其长度，使结果读取器不会把作为初始内容的父级消息误认为子 agent 输出。
+
+### 子 agent 获得什么
+
+子 agent 获得父级的工作目录／会话谱系，除非 `request.agentOptions` 覆盖，否则继承父级的提供方、模型、推理强度与输出 token 上限。它获得全新的扁平注册作用域：父级工具限制与权限不会被导入。一次运行会把父级显式的沙箱覆盖项与 `'never'` 审批钉定带入子 agent，并在子 agent 的初始轮次内追加一份每次运行的描述符。
+

+
+<a id="understand-the-implementation"></a>
+## 理解实现
+
+<details>
+<summary>实现细节——点击展开</summary>
+
+本节解释驱动器的生命周期约定与结构化输出运行时；可观察行为已在[使用本包](#use-this-package)中说明。
+
+### 启动约定
+
+驱动器按以下顺序运行：
+
+1. 校验父级深度与可选的绝对 `maxDepth`，然后把子级深度推导为父级深度加一，并持久化到子级会话 header。
+2. 通过宿主 agent 工厂创建子 agent，并把调用方必需的信号传入创建事务。
+3. 在该事务未发布的设置窗口内，安装请求的 persona、工具限制与结构化输出运行时。
+4. 发布子 agent，保留返回的句柄，并驱动一项任务。
+5. 从完整的自有运行中读取子 agent 自身的输出——最后一条非空 assistant 消息，若无则取其累积的 assistant 文本——以及最终持久化的轮次原因，并排除任何 fork 初始内容。
+
+### 取消与所有权
+
+必需的请求信号同时覆盖启动阶段与实时运行。发布前，创建事务会观察它、回滚并拒绝；驱动器在发布后再检查一次以消除交接竞态，然后安装最小化的实时运行监听器。兑现后，调用方拥有该运行：提供方插件卸载不会撤销它；`dispose()` 会移除中止监听器、记录取消，并委托给句柄经记忆化的完全停稳事务——后者停止循环、移除 agent 与会话，并撤销作用域内的注册。取消流程会接管所有尚未完成的进行中结果，并将其报告为 `aborted`；已经完成的轮次仍保持完成状态。
+
+### 结构化输出
+
+`attachStructuredRuntime(childCtx, schema)` 会在子 agent 作用域中安装完整约定：`structured_output` 工具按请求的 schema 校验并暂存模型值；位于末尾、顺序为 9900 的 first-party 系统提示词段告诉子 agent 该工具调用就是终态答案；`tools/result` 观察器只在该次执行的权威最终工具结果成功后提交暂存值，包括 PTC mode 子分派外层的 `run_code` 结果；单调工具防护会在捕获后阻止后续调用。正常结束却始终未提交必需值的轮次会报告 `error`；驱动器不会重新提示。所有注册都附着于子 agent fiber，并随其一同消失。
+
+### 源码地图
+
+| 文件 | 职责 |
+|---|---|
+| [`src/index.ts`](src/index.ts) | 运行驱动器：创建、单轮驱动、结果读取、dispose |
+| [`src/structured.ts`](src/structured.ts) | 结构化输出运行时：捕获工具、提示词段、防护、提交 |
+| — | 不发布运行时不变式伴生入口；本包没有独立事件序列或可变数据关系，相关约定在所属 seam 强制执行。 |
+
+</details>
+
+-----
+
+<a id="further-exploration"></a>
+## 进一步探索
+
+当包级约定不够用时阅读以下页面；它们从共享 subagent 模型进入构建于本驱动器之上的后端，以及委派策略决策。
+
+- [Subagent 子系统](../../../docs/subsystems/subagent.zh.md)——启动请求、结果、提供方约定与进程内深度和初始内容。
+- [dsh-subagent-spawn-in-process](../subagent-spawn-in-process/README.zh.md)——构建于本驱动器之上的全新子 agent 后端。

+- [委派策略决策](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-25-subagent-policy-inheritance.zh.md)——父级沙箱与审批策略如何到达子 agent。
+
+-----
+
+<a id="model-experience"></a>
+## 模型体验
+
+### 子 agent 请求
+
+#### 模型看到什么
+
+共享驱动器把任务逐字作为子 agent 的用户消息发送；若有请求，还会在未发布子 agent 的全新作用域中遮蔽 persona，并限制全局工具 schema、查找、执行与 PTC mode SDK 绑定。父级限制不会被继承。工具指导插件可以使用组装 scope 省略不可用工具的指导；驱动器不会改写任意静态段落。spawn 不提供历史；fork 提供其已配平的初始内容。
+
+#### Token 影响
+
+子 agent 输入与父级隔离，并随子 agent 自身的步骤增长。persona 会改变重复提示词文本；过滤会改变 schema 或生成 SDK 的成本，使用 scope 的指导内容也会随可见能力变化。
+
+#### KV Cache 影响
+
+与父级请求缓存相互独立。子 agent 后续历史仅追加，而 persona、工具过滤、生成 SDK、提供方或模型变化会建立不同的子 agent 前缀。
+
+### 结构化输出系统提示词、schema 与结果
+
+#### 模型看到什么
+
+结构化运行会添加下方的结构化输出指令，并添加子 agent 作用域的 `structured_output` 定义，其参数使用请求的 schema，精确描述为 `Report your final structured result. Call this exactly once, when your answer is complete; the arguments must match this tool's parameter schema exactly.` 该仅运行时存在的定义不在已生成并随产品发布的[工具包索引](../../../docs/tool-catalog.zh.md#tool-package-map)中。其规范确认值是 `{ recorded: true }`，渲染为 `Structured output recorded.`；后续调用会变为 ``Error: structured output already recorded: the run is complete, so `<tool>` is not executed``。
+
+##### 结构化输出指令
+
+```markdown
+When you have your final answer, you MUST report it by calling the `structured_output` tool with arguments matching its parameter schema exactly. Do not finish with a plain text answer: only the tool call counts as your result.
+```
+
+#### Token 影响
+
+固定指令与能力产生的 token 仅由该子 agent 承担。结果文本进入子 agent 历史，而只有捕获的值会成为父级结果。
+
+#### KV Cache 影响
+
+只要结构化输出指令与 schema 不变，子 agent 内部的前缀就保持稳定。更改 schema 或能力可能从该早期片段开始使子 agent 缓存失效；结果会分别追加到子 agent 与父级历史中。
+
+### 父级启动错误（间接）
+
+#### 模型看到什么
+
+通过 `dsh-tool-subagent`，无效深度状态会精确变为 `Error: agent subagentDepth must be a non-negative safe integer`、`Error: subagent child depth exceeds the safe-integer range` 或 `Error: subagent depth <attempted> exceeds maxDepth <max>`。发布前取消的中止原因会通过注册表的 `Error: <message>` 包装传递。
+
+#### Token 影响
+
+启动成功时为零 token；只有失败的父级工具调用会保留这段文本。
+
+#### KV Cache 影响
+
+仅追加；新增可见内容位于可复用请求前缀之后，不会使现有 KV Cache 条目失效。
+
+### 父级结果（间接）
+
+#### 模型看到什么
+
+驱动器只提取子 agent 自身最后的 assistant 输出或捕获的结构化值；作为初始内容的父级消息与子 agent 中间工作不会成为结果。
+
+#### Token 影响
+
+父级通过消费方接收一个依赖数据的结果；其他所有子 agent token 都留在子 agent 会话中。
+
+#### KV Cache 影响
+
+仅追加；新增可见内容位于可复用请求前缀之后，不会使现有 KV Cache 条目失效。
+
+## 已知限制与延期工作
+
+<a id="known-limitations-and-deferred-work"></a>
+
+
+这些限制说明进程内一次性运行不能做什么；它们是当前包约束。
+
+- **运行不公开 `sendMessage`/`resume`**——进程内一次性运行不具备这些可选运行时能力。
+- **结构化捕获只接受 `defineTool` schema 子集**——不支持的 JSON Schema 构造会在子 agent 创建前失败；需要更广 schema 词汇的提供方必须采用不同的运行时。
