+[English](permission-presets.md) | 中文
+
+[dsh-permission-presets](../../packages/interaction/permission-presets) 的权限预设层（`ctx.permissionPresets`，`PermissionPresetService`）把两个相互独立的强制执行 knob，即[沙箱模式](sandbox.zh.md)（`sandbox/mode`）与[审批策略](approval.zh.md)（`approval/policy`），捆绑成具名预设，供客户端作为单个权限（Permissions）选择器提供。它是一项可选能力，不属于 agent loop（智能体循环）主干，也不拥有任何强制执行：执行、提示词叙述与回放仍然读取各自 knob的折叠结果，预设切换只记录意图，并通过每个 knob各自的规范 setter 写入。[包 README](../../packages/interaction/permission-presets/README.zh.md) 负责组合状态与限制；[沙箱切换设计](../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-06-sandbox.zh.md)负责决策依据。
+
+源码：[`packages/interaction/permission-presets/src/index.ts`](../../packages/interaction/permission-presets/src/index.ts)
+
+## 预设表
+
+预设是一个表键，映射到一个沙箱／审批组合，外加可选的客户端展示信息；默认预设表自带 `workspace-write`（`workspace-write` + `ask`）和 `danger-full-access`（`danger-full-access` + `never`）。
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/** One preset's sandbox/approval bundle and optional client presentation. */
+interface PresetSpec {
+  /** The `sandbox/mode` value the preset writes through. */
+  sandbox: SandboxMode
+  /** The `approval/policy` value the preset writes through. */
+  approval: ApprovalPolicy
+  /** The display label a client shows for this preset; the raw table key when omitted. */
+  name?: string
+  /** One user-facing sentence on what the preset means; omitted when not configured. */
+  description?: string
+}
+```
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/** The {@link PermissionPresetService} config: preset table and composition default. */
+interface Config {
+  /**
+   * The preset table: name → knob bundle. Defaults to `workspace-write`
+   * (workspace-write + ask) and `danger-full-access` (danger-full-access +
+   * never). The name `custom` is reserved for the derived not-a-preset state.
+   */
+  presets?: Record<string, PresetSpec>
+  /**
+   * Default for new sessions. When omitted, the preset matching the composed
+   * sandbox and approval defaults is used.
+   */
+  defaultPreset?: string
+}
+```
+
+该服务要求一个施加隔离的 `ctx.shell` 执行器和 `ctx.approval`，配置错误在插件加载时即失败：名为 `custom` 的表项会抛出异常（该名称保留给派生的「非预设」状态）；在不施加隔离的 bash 执行器（没有 `sandboxMode` 能力事实）之上组合同样抛出异常，因为预设捆绑了一个沙箱模式。
+
+## 当前预设与派生的 `custom`
+
+`current(session)` 从可选注册的 `permissions` 投影派生实际生效的预设。该单元折叠会话的沙箱模式、审批策略和已记录选择；状态内部的缺失值回退到执行器配置的模式与审批服务配置，最后回退到 `ask`。注册表或投影 key 缺失时会显式失败。服务优先取仍然匹配的选择，其次取声明顺序中第一个匹配的表项，否则返回 `CUSTOM_PRESET`（`'custom'`）。`custom` 只是派生值：客户端可以把它显示为当前值，但它绝不是切换目标，也绝不出现在事件 payload 中。
+
+`names` 按预设表声明顺序列出可切换的预设；`optionOf(name)` 为某个表键（label 回退为该键）或 `custom` 构建客户端渲染的选项，传入其他任何名称都会抛出异常。
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/** The select-option shape a presentation layer advertises for one preset (or for the derived `custom` state). */
+interface PresetOption {
+  /** Stable option value: the table key, or `custom`. */
+  value: string
+  /** The display label. */
+  name: string
+  /** One user-facing sentence on what the value means; omitted when not configured. */
+  description?: string
+}
+```
+
+## 切换与 `permission/preset` 事件
+
+`set(session, name)` 解析预设（未知名称抛出异常），在 `name` 尚不是生效预设时追加一条仅记日志的 `permission/preset` 事件，然后通过各旋钮自己的 setter（[dsh-sandbox-policy](../../packages/sandbox/sandbox-policy) 的 `setSandboxMode` 与 [dsh-user-approval](../../packages/interaction/user-approval) 的 `setApprovalPolicy`）写入，且仅当该 knob的生效值发生变化时才写。同一轮次内，选择事件先于旋钮事件出现；重新选择当前生效的预设则什么都不追加。
+
+`permission/preset` 是持久、仅记日志的用户意图：它不进入模型 transcript（文本记录），模型可见的后果由 knob 事件经各自消费方承担；它存在是为了在两个预设共享同一个旋钮组合时，让 `current()` 仍能保住用户选择的究竟是哪一个预设。`permissions` 投影把该选择与两个 knob 事件一同折叠，并保留用于区分空恢复 seed 与新会话的 `session/end-seed` 边界；回放不需要任何追赶状态或原始日志重扫。完整事件声明见[持久化日志事件目录](../persistence-catalog.zh.md)；方法签名见生成的[服务目录](#ctxpermissionpresets--permissionpresetservice)。

+# Session Persistence
+
+English | [中文](persistence.zh.md)
+
+The **durability seam** for the event log. [session.md](session.md) describes the in-memory `Session` — the append-only `SessionEvent` log that is the source of truth. This page describes how that log is made durable: the abstract `SessionPersistence` service, its provider model and shipped JSONL backend, the flush checkpoint, crash recovery, and the metadata header that travels alongside the log. The event vocabulary the log carries is enumerated, member by member, in the generated [persistence log event catalog](../persistence-catalog.md).
+
+The seam is a [capability seam](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-06-13-capability-seams.md): one abstract service ([dsh-session-persistence](../../packages/session/session-persistence), `ctx.sessionPersistence`) exposing `create`/`open`/`stat`/`list` over the existing `SessionEvent` — **no parallel persisted event type** — where `create` and `open` return a per-session `SessionHandle` (`read`/`append`/`flush`/`close`) that carries all log access and single-writer ownership. The repository ships [dsh-session-persistence-jsonl](../../packages/session/session-persistence-jsonl) as its provider; out-of-tree providers may implement the same service contract. See the [handle-based persistence Agent Note](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-08-27-handle-based-session-persistence.md) and the [session-persistence Agent Note](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-06-14-session-persistence.md).
+
+## `SessionHandle` — one open channel onto a stored session
+
+Every log read and write flows through a handle, never through id-addressed service methods: the handle is the single door the cross-process write lease guards. One handle type serves both accesses — a mutation on a `read` handle is a runtime `SessionReadOnlyError` rather than a typed split — and in-process single-writer ownership makes a second `open(id, 'write')` reject with `SessionAlreadyOwnedError` while an owner is active.
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * One open channel onto a stored session. A handle is single-owner state, not
+ * a shared service: `read` never backtracks below what this handle already
+ * observed, a `write` handle reads its own successful appends, and `close()`
+ * is the one teardown (idempotent, uncancellable; `Symbol.asyncDispose`
+ * delegates to it). Every operation on a closed handle rejects with
+ * `SessionHandleClosedError`.
+ *
+ * Freshness across handles: once an `append` or `flush` resolves on a write
+ * handle, every read STARTED afterwards on the same backend instance — on any
+ * handle, or through `stat`/`list` — observes at least that prefix.
+ * Reads concurrent with a mutation carry no ordering promise beyond the valid
+ * contiguous prefix.
+ */
+interface SessionHandle extends AsyncDisposable {
+  /** The stored session this handle addresses. */
+  readonly id: SessionId
+  /** The immutable stored header, fixed at `create`/`open`. */
+  readonly header: SessionHeader
+  /**
+   * Exact fork-inherited prefix length stored with the log; `0` when

+   * `SessionReadOnlyError` on a read handle and `SessionOwnershipLostError`
+   * when write ownership is gone.
+   * @param events - the contiguous batch, in seq order.

+
+  /**
+   * The durability barrier — the one operation that promises storage: on
+   * resolution every acknowledged append is durable and the session is
+   * materialized for other processes; an empty created session becomes
+   * durably listable here. Callers that must survive a crash flush; a backend
+   * whose `append` already persists on resolution treats this as
+   * materialize-if-needed. Rejects with `SessionReadOnlyError` on a read
+   * handle.
+   * @param options - optional cancellation observed before the barrier starts.
+   */
+  flush(options?: SessionHandleFlushOptions): Promise<void>
+
+  /**
+   * Release the handle: a read handle frees local resources; a write handle
+   * completes pending durability and releases write ownership. Idempotent,
+   * asynchronous, and deliberately not cancellable.
+   */
+  close(): Promise<void>
+}
+```
+
+A created session is observable in this process from the moment `create` resolves, while a backend may defer physical materialization (a pure optimization) until the first `append` or `flush`; other processes see only materialized sessions, and a session that never materialized before a crash never existed.
+
+## The flush checkpoint
+
+`session/event` is a *synchronous* notification; the mounted backend routes it by session id into the active write handle's bounded write-behind window without blocking the producer (the backend installs these listeners once, because persistence already enforces one active write handle per id). The first pending event starts a fixed internal batching window, and later events join without resetting its deadline. Expiry starts one durable `append` through the session's write handle; events admitted during that write receive their own deadline and form a follow-up batch. `session/flush` cancels the wait and drains through quiescence, so the loop still uses it as the ordering and error-observation checkpoint before claiming the next ordinary turn. A rejected background write retains its events in order, pauses the automatic path, and is reported through the logger; the next explicit flush retries and rejects loudly to its caller. `session/disposed` performs the same final drain and closes the handle, and `close()` itself drains the routed buffer through the still-open storage, so backend teardown's close sweep loses nothing. The window bounds only intentional batching wait, not event-loop scheduling or backend durability latency ([decision](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-08-08-bounded-session-persistence-write-batching.md)).
+
+## Crash recovery preserves an interrupted turn
+
+A log crashed mid-turn ends with an open `turn/start` and no `turn/end`. Persistence does **not** truncate or repair it — a single turn can be huge in a long-horizon task (many steps, large tool output), and those events were durably appended before the crash. It returns the physically valid contiguous log; only the incomplete fragment of a torn physical tail, belonging to an append that never resolved, is discarded — complete records recovered from it (the JSONL backend partially decodes a torn Zstandard frame) are durably rewritten by the write path before the handle's first new append. Repair is the reader's job: resume (agent-loop) reads the stored log through its write handle, computes `interruptedTurnClosers` — missing tool errors, any open `step/end`, and a synthetic `turn/end { reason: { kind: 'interrupted' } }` — and appends them through the same handle as an ordinary batch before publishing the Session. `interrupted` is the one `TurnEndReason` no loop emits (see [session.md](session.md#why-a-turn-ended-turnendreasonmap)).
+
+Repair therefore writes only under write ownership: a live session's write handle is held by its lifecycle owner, so a concurrent `open(id, 'write')` rejects with `SessionAlreadyOwnedError` instead of racing repair against a live turn. Read-only observers (session-query) balance an interrupted cold log with the same closers in memory only, writing nothing back.
+
+Read-only observation is `open(id, 'read')`: the handle serves validated contiguous prefix slices, never a torn tail, and repeated reads on one handle never observe an older state than a prior read. There is no persistence-side prepared-Session cache: session-query owns its cold-read cache, keying one balanced cold Session per id on the `stat().revision` change token and re-reading only when the token changes. The [handle-based persistence Agent Note](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-08-27-handle-based-session-persistence.md) owns this lifecycle; the [Session preparation decision](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-08-05-session-preparation.md) records the publication-boundary `SessionPreparation` that remains.
+
+## `SessionLocation` — refusal-diagnostics artifact target
+
+`SessionLocation` is not a consumer-facing query: log access goes through a session handle's `read`. It survives only as refusal diagnostics, letting a `SessionFormatUnsupportedError` name the raw log a build refused to interpret. JSONL supplies the absolute transcript path inside its project/session directory; a backend without one artifact per session supplies nothing.
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * A backend-resolved, per-session local artifact location. Carried only by
+ * refusal diagnostics ({@link SessionFormatUnsupportedError}) so a user can
+ * find the raw log a build refused to interpret; it is not a consumer-facing
+ * query — log access goes through a session handle's `read`.
+ */
+interface SessionLocation {
+  /** Backend-specific artifact kind, for example `jsonl`. */
+  readonly kind: string
+  /** Absolute path to this session's backend-owned artifact. */
+  readonly path: string
+}
+```
+
+<a id="sessionheader--metadata-beside-the-log"></a>
+
+## `SessionHeader` — metadata beside the log
+
+Per-session metadata travels **separately** from the event log: the header carries format version, cwd, and the `isSeeded` lineage bit, while body-bearing storage values carry the exact inherited cut beside it. Neither belongs to `SessionEventMap` or reaches `deriveMessages()`. The logical header is attached through `session.header`; the Session exposes its cut as `inheritedEventCount`.
+
+Source: [`packages/core/session/src/types.ts`](../../packages/core/session/src/types.ts)
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * Immutable validated storage metadata, kept outside the conversation event log.
+ */
+interface SessionHeader {
+  /**
+   * Current logical format version, stamped from {@link SESSION_FORMAT_VERSION}.
+   * Historical physical headers are translated before entering this interface.
+   */

+  readonly delegationDepth?: number
+  /**

+   * deployment composes per session. Durable because the preset decides the
+   * session's tools and prompt: a resume that restored a different composition
+   * would replay history the model can no longer act on.
+   */
+  readonly agentPreset?: string
+}
+```
+
+## Format refusal — logs a build cannot faithfully read
+
+A backend refuses a log it cannot faithfully interpret with `SessionFormatUnsupportedError`, distinct from `SessionPersistenceCorruptionError` because nothing is damaged. `stat` and `list` classify the highest canonical generation and translate a supported historical header without reading or mutating its body. `open` runs the build-static adjacent migration chain under per-id serialization before returning a handle, leaves every source path, byte, and inode unchanged, and exclusively publishes only the final current generation. A future highest generation refuses even when an older readable generation remains. Current v2 restoration retains installed extensions and unknown events carrying `ignorable: true`; historical v0/v1 migration refuses an unknown type even when marked ignorable. The message appends the selected raw log path when the backend keeps one artifact per session. The JSONL backend migrates released v0 or v1 to current v2 and refuses a future version before interpreting its version-specific fields or event rows. An out-of-tree backend must enforce equivalent current-only handle values and direction-aware refusals at its physical-format entry. The [released-format migration decision](../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-08-31-released-session-format-migrations.md) owns the chain and immutable-publication rules.
+
+## `CreateSessionOptions` — seeding and metadata
+
+Creating a `Session` through the store takes a `seed` (initial replay or fork history), an optional exact `inheritedEventCount`, and `meta` (the storage-level fields the store folds into a `SessionHeader`). The store fills in `version`/`id` and defaults `createdAt`; the caller may supply the validated absolute `cwd`, `parentSession` lineage, `isSeeded` lineage bit, optional coarse `origin`, `delegationDepth`, `agentPreset`, and an existing `createdAt`. A seeded creation requires an explicit seed equal to its inherited prefix and an exact cut; the constructor appends the child-owned tagged end-seed marker at that cut before setup adds child-owned events. `origin: 'subagent'` lets product navigation hide duplicate child rows; it does not prove that a descriptor is valid or that the child can resume.
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * Options for creating a {@link Session} via the store. `seed` replays/forks
+ * an existing event log; `meta` carries the caller-supplied storage fields the
+ * store folds into a {@link SessionHeader}.
+ */
+interface CreateSessionOptions {
+  /** Initial replay or fork history supplied at construction. */
+  readonly seed?: readonly SessionEvent[]
+  /**
+   * Exact fork-inherited prefix length when `meta.isSeeded` is true. In v2 the
+   * constructor seed is exactly this inherited prefix; the constructor
+   * appends the child-owned tagged marker at the cut.
+   */
+  readonly inheritedEventCount?: SessionLogOffset
+  /**
+   * Storage metadata read once before publication. `isSeeded` marks fork
+   * lineage; supplying replay history alone does not make it inherited.
+   */
+  readonly meta?: {
+    readonly cwd?: string
+    readonly parentSession?: SessionId
+    readonly createdAt?: number
+    readonly isSeeded?: boolean
+    readonly origin?: 'subagent'
+    readonly delegationDepth?: number
+    readonly agentPreset?: string
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Replay/fork is therefore `ctx.agents.create({ sessionId, seed, meta })` — a fork additionally supplies `inheritedEventCount` with `meta.isSeeded: true`, and only agent-loop-published sessions persist, and the loop stores the seed through the new session's write handle before publication; resuming a *persisted* session into a live agent is `ctx.agents.resume({ resumeSessionId })`.
+
+## Preparation and restoration ownership
+
+`SessionStore.prepare()` accepts ordinary creation options or fresh persistence graphs transferred through `RestoredSessionOptions`. The restoration branch validates and freezes the transferred header and events in place, so callers must retain no mutable aliases. `SessionPreparation` then owns the exact unpublished Session until publication or rollback; disposal is synchronous and idempotent. agent-loop's resume builds these graphs by reading the stored log through the session's write handle and appending any needed `interruptedTurnClosers` before preparation.
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * Fresh storage values transferred to {@link SessionStore.prepare} without a
+ * second serialization copy. Callers retain no mutable aliases.
+ */
+interface RestoredSessionOptions {
+  /** Fresh detached storage events to validate and freeze in place. */
+  readonly seed: SessionEvent[]
+  /** Fresh detached storage metadata to validate and freeze in place. */
+  readonly meta: SessionHeader
+  /** Exact number of fork-inherited leading events decoded from storage. */
+  readonly inheritedEventCount: SessionLogOffset
+  /** Select the persistence ownership-transfer path. */
+  readonly seedSource: 'persistence'
+}
+```
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/** Inputs accepted while constructing an unpublished Session. */
+type PrepareSessionOptions =
+  | (CreateSessionOptions & { readonly seedSource?: undefined })
+  | RestoredSessionOptions
+```
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/** Options for a preparation whose provider retains unpublished state. */
+interface SessionPreparationOptions {
+  /** Release provider-owned state when the Session was not published. */
+  readonly release?: () => void
+}
+```
+
+```ts public-api
+/**

+ */
+declare class SessionPreparation implements Disposable {
+  /** The exact Session to use for setup and publication. */

+   */
+  static create(session: Session, options?: SessionPreparationOptions): SessionPreparation;
+  /** Release provider state once when this preparation leaves its caller. */
+  [Symbol.dispose](): void;
+}
+```
+
+## Lightweight source revisions
+
+Consumers of derived read models compare a cheap opaque revision before loading a full event log. The revision is a per-backend-instance change token from `stat`/`list`: equal revisions may be treated as an unchanged log; unequal revisions promise nothing, and write-ownership churn never changes one. session-query keys its cold-read cache on it; the token plays no part in open, read, or resume.
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * Backend-owned token that identifies both one storage source and one revision
+ * of a persisted session log.
+ */
+type SessionPersistenceRevision = Branded<'SessionPersistenceRevision'>
+```
+
+```ts type-equiv
+/**
+ * Lightweight stored-session observation returned by {@link SessionPersistence.stat}
+ * and {@link SessionPersistence.list} without reading the full event log.
+ */
+interface SessionPersistenceSnapshot {
+  /** Detached metadata for one stored session. */
+  readonly header: SessionHeader
+  /** Opaque change token; see {@link SessionPersistence.stat}. */
+  readonly revision: SessionPersistenceRevision
+  /** Logical event count, when the backend can provide it cheaply from metadata; otherwise absent. */
+  readonly eventCount?: number
+  /** Physical artifact byte size, when the backend can provide it cheaply (JSONL); otherwise absent. */
+  readonly sizeBytes?: number
+}
+```
+
+The optional `eventCount`/`sizeBytes` fields remain cheap backend observations for consumers that explicitly need them. Session listing does not use either field to open cold logs: it reads headers plus identity-checked projection-cache hints only, so a cache or Session-format upgrade never turns startup into a body scan.
+
+## The backend
+
+The shipped provider implements the abstract `SessionPersistence` contract (`create`/`open`/`stat`/`list`, with per-session `SessionHandle`s carrying `read`/`append`/`flush`/`close` and optional cancellation throughout) and passes the shared persistence contract suite:
+
+- **[dsh-session-persistence-jsonl](../../packages/session/session-persistence-jsonl)** — an append-only logical JSONL log per session, stored as checksummed concatenated Zstandard frames by default or raw lines by configuration, with crash-safe atomic materialization, per-batch `fsync` appends, and torn-tail truncation before the first new append. `stat`/`list` carry `sizeBytes` and a best-effort `fs.stat`-derived revision.

+Generated from source by `scripts/gen-cordis-catalog.ts` (verified fresh by `pnpm run verify-cordis-catalog` in doc-sync; regenerate with `pnpm run gen-cordis-catalog`) — the language sides differ only in locale-specific paired document paths. Signature blocks use a `ts cordis-catalog` fence and keep the original source JSDoc; dispatch modes are defined in the [primer](../cordis-primer.md#dispatch-modes), and the framework-inherited `ctx` API lives in [cordis-api/inherited.md](../cordis-api/inherited.md).

+
+### `ctx.sessionPersistence` — `SessionPersistence` (abstract seam)
+
+Durable append-only session storage addressed through per-session handles.
+
+Storage semantics shared by every backend: events are contiguous from seq 0 and never rewritten; a torn physical tail is never returned to a reader and is truncated by the write path before its first append; reads validate current-format records only and refuse unknown vocabulary fail-closed. `append` persists best-effort; `flush` — per handle or service-wide — is the durability barrier.
+
+Visibility: a created session is observable through `stat`/`list`/`open` in this process from the moment `create` resolves, even while a backend defers physical materialization (a pure optimization); other processes see the session only once it materializes, and a session that never materialized before a crash never existed. `SessionHandle.flush` forces materialization.
+
+Freshness: once an `append` or `flush` resolves, reads started afterwards on this backend instance observe at least that prefix.
