The Windows x64 installed-wheel job timed out while waiting for initialize even though the same head passed on rerun. Exact packaged-runtime VM evidence showed a 6.47-second first cold handshake and 2.69-2.94-second warm fresh-home handshakes, leaving too little variance below the public 10-second default.\n\nRaise the independent initialize default to 30 seconds in both Python SDK configuration layers. Ordinary turn and shutdown timeouts remain unchanged, callers retain an explicit override, and tests plus paired documentation pin the public behavior.
Run the GitHub Windows runtime leg under the runner’s native PowerShell instead of inheriting the POSIX Bash body. POSIX and Windows now own explicit output resolution, virtual-environment setup, environment scrubbing, and keyless/live black-box commands, while portable build commands continue to use each runner’s default shell.
Put the pinned uv installation on the GitLab Windows job PATH before either the smoke or release builder invokes it. Reject a runtime executable whose basename does not match the selected platform manifest, and reject Intel macOS at platform selection instead of reporting a misleading missing artifact.
Add a complete PowerShell path to the published Python tutorial and record the three-phase shutdown-time bound in the Windows runtime decision. Workflow, Python, and bilingual documentation tests pin the resulting behavior.
Record win-x64 as the sole Windows Python carrier: node24-win-x64 builds a py3-none-win_amd64 wheel with dsh.exe, rg.exe, and both ConPTY addons; Windows arm64 remains explicitly unsupported. The note also pins native build ownership, shell-free pnpm launch, installed-wheel keyless/live gates, and the PowerShell-specific minimal snapshot.
Update the active SEA, sole-launcher, profile-runtime, installed-wheel, and publication decisions from three runtime wheels to four, preserving their existing rationale while linking the Windows extension. Contributor and runtime references now state the exact target, filenames, sidecars, snapshot ownership, and five-wheel release set in both languages.
Make the checked-in minimal SDK overlay disable both one-shot shell rows and mount exactly one persistent PTY stack: Bash on Linux/macOS and PowerShell on Windows. The SDK server, explicit dsh home, persistence, editor, timeout, and reduced tool catalog remain unchanged.
Update the runnable example and tutorial to list Windows x64 as supported, describe the platform-selected shell, and remove the obsolete POSIX-only restriction. This keeps the documented first Python task executable through the packaged Windows dsh profile instead of advertising a Linux-only overlay on a Windows-capable SDK.
Stop narrowing the standalone DeepSeek adapter to a DSH_MODEL-derived one-entry catalog. The direct adapter already accepts model ids outside its advisory catalog, so retain only the DSH_CONTEXT_WINDOW fallback and let the JSON-RPC initialize model be the single runtime selection.
Remove model mirroring from minimal.py and the packaged smoke. The keyless process now initializes deepseek-v4-pro without DSH_MODEL, while the packaged scenario continues to use its unlisted smoke-model; together they prove both cataloged and arbitrary SDK model arguments reach the adapter directly.
Update the bundle, tutorial, SDK/example references, and owning Agent Notes to keep DSH_MODEL only as minimal.py's optional default input, never as a second value callers must synchronize.
Record sdk-minimal as the narrow repository-owned exception to base-first profile composition: callers still launch only dsh and cannot provide an arbitrary Cordis tree, while the shipped bundle may own a complete explicit roster. Cross-link the launcher, profile-bundle, Python-runtime, minimal-agent, snapshot, and telemetry decisions; the supersession audit keeps each older note active because its remaining rationale is independent.
Update the CLI, architecture, Python tutorial/reference, example, runtime-wheel reference, and bundle documentation. The docs distinguish the full sdk profile from sdk-minimal, explain explicit-home/plugin/patch customization, state the minimal permission and persistence choices, and retain the separately packaged web profile and frontend assets for direct dsh use.
Correct dsh-base descriptions to cover base-backed profiles, make SDK startup configuration visible in the generated config catalog, add sdk-minimal to the module graph, and regenerate the base-composition graph. English and Chinese pairs are re-recorded at the exact reviewed contents.
Resolve the installation fallback generation before locking and return immediately when every required symlink or packaged proxy is complete. Parallel SDK rollouts sharing an initialized DSH_HOME therefore do not queue on profiles/node_modules.lock.
Missing or stale entries still acquire the cross-process writer lock, recheck the generation, and repair under exclusive ownership. Tests hold the lock to prove the steady-state bypass and verify that a partial repair retains already-correct siblings.
Give the SDK JSON-RPC server a per-root tool filter and let deployments mark the configured persona as the complete system prompt. The checked-in minimal overlay now names only bash and str_replace_editor, so later global tools and unrelated guidance from dsh-base cannot appear implicitly.
Keep the shared SDK host services and packaged Web capability intact. Only workspace instructions, compaction, and the conflicting one-shot Bash row remain disabled. Unit coverage pins the configuration paths, and a real dsh profile smoke proves the assembled prompt and exact two-tool request.
The packaged dsh launcher must expose installation modules to profile-local plugins without writing symlinks into pkg's virtual filesystem. The first review fix selected ESM exports correctly in ordinary Node, but real carrier execution exposed package metadata and VFS behavior that a synthetic tree did not cover: executable and declaration packages have no import entry, legacy main fields rely on Node probing, and pkg's Windows VFS prevents filesystem package-scope resolution from seeing exports such as zod/mini and @google/genai/web.
Resolve explicit exports directly from each installed manifest with the maintained resolve.exports package under Node import conditions. Publish only package-local candidate files that exist, reject escaping or malformed targets, preserve the package installation URL without realpath, and keep Node's legacy resolver only for exports-less packages. This avoids pkg filesystem package lookup entirely while retaining fail-loud behavior for broken runtime entries.
Add regression coverage for import-only, nested, symlinked, zod-style, and genai-style condition maps; unavailable and types-only entries; invalid and escaping targets; executable/declaration packages; extensionless main; and legacy index fallback. profile.ts remains at 100% statements, branches, functions, and lines. Update the bilingual package and Agent Note contracts, replace the runtime dependency and generated notice, and regenerate the lockfile through pnpm.
Resolve packaged profile proxies with Node ESM import conditions from each package installation, and fail loud when an explicit runtime export or legacy main entry is missing. Serialize the shared profile fallback under the existing cross-process writer lock so concurrent dsh processes cannot observe partial proxies; either carrier now replaces the other carrier’s managed entry without manual cleanup.
Give Python initialize its own 10-second default bound and name the selected profile in timeout diagnostics, while leaving ordinary agent turns unbounded by default. Package the dynamically resolved web frontend and skill-badge assets so the runtime wheel’s normal dsh profiles do not depend on pkg static-discovery accidents.
Rewrite the root launch rule and every active stale SDK-runtime note to the shipped dsh profile architecture in both languages. Focused tests prove import-only and transitive package exports, lock contention, cross-carrier transitions, missing-entry failures, asset inventory, and bounded initialization.
Document dsh as the only application launcher across architecture, CLI, SDK, app-boot, Python package, contributor, tutorial, and example references. Explain explicit home selection, profile and patch precedence, persistent external plugin installation, the Node-free runtime path, and the absence of complete-config or ~/.dsh fallbacks.
Record the Python profile-runtime decision and update the active naming, installed-wheel, and SEA packaging notes with precise supersession. Regenerate the configuration catalog and module graph after deleting the carrier, update both reviewed languages and pairing records, and classify the retained standalone Cordis files as lower-level test fixtures rather than launch interfaces.
Master dimensions move from a 2048 long-edge rule to a total-pixel
budget (normalizedImageMaxPixels, default 2048x2048) with an 8192
long-edge cap, so extreme aspect ratios keep short-edge resolution.
The shared quality ladder and lazy execution move to encoding.ts,
review-round doc fixes land across attachment and llm packages, and
the superseded facts in the unified-image-pipeline note now describe
the shipped routing.
Delete the 5-bit colour-count classifier and palette PNG branch that
misrouted high-frequency photographic JPEGs (issue #2885 images 23/24)
into an encoder 100x slower with 4x larger output. Both normalization
and request-image encoding now route by the decoded alpha fact alone:
opaque sources down a JPEG ladder and alpha sources down a WebP
effort-0 ladder, each at qualities 85/75/60. Byte budgets become ladder
targets: the downscale retry loop is gone and a ladder-exhausted encode
keeps its smallest output, while provider byte caps stay enforced at
the transmitting route. Request transforms move to request-image-v5.
The local spill backend never reclaimed its files, so configured roots
grew without bound and default per-process dsh-spill-* temp roots piled
up across runs. Immediate deletion is unsafe because persisted, resumed,
and forked sessions may still reference an older locator.
Add a fiber-owned, best-effort sweep that runs once after activation
(never delaying availability, awaited on disposal): it deletes regular
files older than cleanupPeriodDays (default 30; 0 disables) across the
configured root and prior default temp roots, prunes emptied dirs, and
skips symlinks/unknown entries. Every filesystem failure is contained
and logged, so the sweep cannot fail activation or a concurrent write.
