Fixes the three persistence seams #703 left targeting the pre-rc.1 API on a branch cut from current upstream/main (8f1444a, 0.10.0-beta.5). Follow-up to the analysis in #703 (comment) — reproduced against the real dsh 0.1.2-rc.1 jsonl backend (session-persistence-jsonl from the host tree) and the real ~/.dsh/sessions history (n=90 logs), not fixtures.

What breaks on a real rc.1 host (all reproduced)

1. Preset/route restore silently degrades on resumepresets.ts resolvePersistedPreset / resolvePersistedRoute call persistence.load(id), which rc.1 removed:

persistence.load present: false
official load() call throws: TypeError - persistence.load is not a function

The TypeError is swallowed by the degraded-read catch, so resume falls back to the header-only preset and agentOptions.model is never backfilled (issue #30/#67 path). Fix: the rc.1 read-handle seam open(id,'read') → h.read(0) → h.header → h.close() (structural dual-shape, still type-checks against the vendored 0.1.1-rc.2 dev line). Verified: the seam round-trips a non-empty log on the real backend.

2. Session-tree rewind onto a non-current session always errorschannel.ts rewindToNode reads the source log through the same removed load(), behind a typeof persistence.load !== 'function' guard, so on rc.1 every tree rewind onto a non-live session hits rewind-no-persistence:

rewind guard (typeof load !== function) triggers on rc.1: true

Fix: same read-handle seam, keeping the existing user-facing failure notices (open throw → rewind-load-failed, read throw → rewind-load-failed, missing service → rewind-no-persistence).

3. Session tree/resume listing degrades to the live session only — rc.1 list() returns SessionPersistenceSnapshot records ({ header, revision }), but both sessions/list.ts enumerate() and the buildSessionTree list branch feed them to readHeader as bare headers:

entries parse as BARE header (readHeader finds top-level id): 0 of 90
entries parse as WRAPPED snapshot (header.id): 90 of 90
=> session tree degrades to 0 entries (expected 90)
dual-shape unwrap (entry.header ?? entry) parses: 90 of 90

Fix: dual-shape parse in both call sites (readSnapshot first, bare-header fallback for older hosts), plus list() now receives the rc.1 options-object form ({ signal }) which legacy positional hosts ignore. The buildSessionTree raw contract is preserved: raw stays the backend's own enumeration shape so locate() keeps receiving what its own list() handed back.

Also: buildSessionTree prefers rc.1's public resolveLog(id) over the demoted-to-private locate() (a thrown resolveLog falls through to the stock scan — a resolution hiccup is not an authoritative miss), and the two verify-script stubs are reshaped to the read-handle surface (a load()-shaped stub silently degrades every persisted-read assertion to undefined — exactly the trap these seams fell into).

Verification

  • pnpm build (tsc compile + all verify batteries incl. verify:minimal-preset-tools, verify-resume-route) passes on the branch.
  • Real-backend repro before fix: load absent → TypeError; readHeader keeps 0 of 90 logs; rewind guard trips. After fix (seam semantics): unwrap parses 90/90, open('read')+read(0) returns a non-empty log, handle.header carries cwd/agentPreset.
  • All seams are dual-shaped/structural: older hosts (rc.6/0.1.1 line) keep their paths; no peer-range change needed (rc.1 is already declared).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved compatibility when opening and reading persisted sessions.
    • Fixed session listings to handle both current and legacy persistence records.
    • Improved resume routes, cross-session rewind, and preset/model lookups.
    • Added more reliable handling for unreadable or unavailable persisted sessions.
    • Ensured session resources are closed after use, including when errors occur.

…napshot list unwrap

Follow-up to ccch1mneyyy#703 (merged as c8a59a3): three persistence call sites still
target the pre-rc.1 API surface, so on a real 0.1.2-rc.1 host the persisted
features silently degrade while peer ranges advertise rc.1 support.

- presets.ts resolvePersistedPreset/resolvePersistedRoute: the removed
  SessionPersistence.load() (throws TypeError on rc.1, swallowed by the
  degraded-read catch) is replaced by the read-handle seam
  open(id,'read') -> h.read(0) -> h.header -> h.close(). Reproduced against
  the real rc.1 jsonl backend: load present=false; the seam returns a
  non-empty log.
- channel.ts rewindToNode (non-current session): the same load() call sat
  behind a `typeof load !== 'function'` guard, so every tree rewind onto a
  non-live session hit the rewind-no-persistence error path. Now uses the
  read-handle seam with the same user-facing failure notices.
- sessions/list.ts enumerate() + channel.ts buildSessionTree list() branch:
  rc.1 list() returns SessionPersistenceSnapshot records ({ header,
  revision }) while both callers parse them as bare headers, so readHeader
  kept 0 of 90 real logs and the session tree degraded to the live session
  only. Dual-shape parse (readSnapshot first, bare-header fallback) restores
  the full tree on both rc.1 and older hosts; list() now also receives the
  rc.1 options-object form ({ signal }).
- channel.ts buildSessionTree: prefer rc.1's public resolveLog(id) over the
  demoted-to-private locate(); a thrown resolveLog falls through to the
  stock scan (resolution hiccup, not an authoritative miss).
- scripts/verify-minimal-preset-tools.mjs + verify-resume-route.mjs: stubs
  reshaped to the rc.1 read-handle surface (a load()-shaped stub silently
  degrades every persisted-read assertion to undefined).

Verified against the real rc.1 jsonl backend (C:/Users/12971/.dsh/sessions,
n=90 logs): list() unwrap parses 90/90; open('read') + read(0) viable;
pnpm build (compile + all verify batteries) passes.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Session persistence consumers now use the open(id, 'read') handle API. Session listing and tree log lookup support current and legacy backend interfaces. Verification fixtures cover read handles, failures, routes, and header selection.

Changes

Session persistence compatibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Session listing compatibility
src/dsh-adapter/sessions/list.ts, src/dsh-adapter/channel.ts
Session listing accepts options-object and positional-signal APIs. It parses snapshot records and legacy bare headers, and preserves available revisions.
Read-handle consumers
src/dsh-adapter/presets.ts, src/dsh-adapter/channel.ts
Preset resolution and cross-session rewind use open, read, header, and close. Open and read failures return the existing fallback results, and handles close in finally blocks.
Tree log resolution
src/dsh-adapter/channel.ts
Tree log lookup prefers asynchronous resolveLog(id) and falls back to legacy locate(). Resolution failures are tracked for fallback handling.
Persistence verification fixtures
scripts/verify-minimal-preset-tools.mjs, scripts/verify-resume-route.mjs
Verification fixtures use read handles. Tests cover successful routes, missing headers, open failures, read failures, absent persistence, and last-header-wins behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 13cd7

Some current and legacy persistence backend combinations can produce incorrect or unreadable session trees, so these compatibility paths should be corrected before merge.

Pass the unwrapped header to locate.

When persistence.list() returns snapshot records, locate(entry.raw) receives the { header, revision } wrapper instead of the header. This can make legacy locate(header) return no path. Because hasLocate is true, the stock scan is skipped, and the branch can become unreadable when inspect is unavailable or fails.

Proposed fix
-            return header === undefined ? [] : [{ header, raw: entry }]
+            return header === undefined ? [] : [{ header, raw }]

Read locatedPath before scanning stock roots. When resolveLog() exists without locate(), the code sets locatedPath but calls readSessionEventsFromLog(), which can load a different same-ID stock log. Read locatedPath whenever it is set; use stock scanning only when no resolver exists or resolveLog() failed. resolveLogFailed currently has no effect. Add a regression fixture for this backend shape.

🌐 Web query:

@deepseek-ai/dsh-session-persistence list(signal) list({ signal }) SessionPersistenceSnapshot

💡 Result:

In the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) framework, the dsh-session-persistence package defines a storage abstraction for session event logs [1][2]. The list and listSnapshots operations are part of this service's public interface, used to inspect materialized sessions [3][4][5]. SessionPersistenceSnapshot is an interface that provides a lightweight, immutable identity for a materialized session without requiring the full log to be loaded [3][4]. It is defined as: interface SessionPersistenceSnapshot { header: SessionHeader; revision: SessionPersistenceRevision; } Key details regarding these operations: 1. listSnapshots(signal?: AbortSignal): Promise<SessionPersistenceSnapshot[]> This method lists materialized sessions and returns an array of SessionPersistenceSnapshot objects [3][6]. It is designed to be efficient by returning only the header and an opaque, source-qualified revision token [3][4]. This revision token changes whenever the stored log is updated (e.g., via append, repair, or replacement), allowing callers to detect changes without parsing the entire log [3][7]. 2. list(signal?: AbortSignal): Promise<SessionHeader[]> This method lists the metadata (SessionHeader) for all materialized sessions [8]. Unlike listSnapshots, it typically returns the session headers directly without the additional revision tokens [8]. The signal parameter, an optional AbortSignal, is used for cancellation, allowing the backend to stop work if the operation is no longer needed [3][4][7]. These methods are implemented by the concrete persistence backends, such as dsh-session-persistence-jsonl (which reads header frames from logs) and dsh-session-persistence-sqlite (which queries session tables) [1][9][8].

🌐 Web query:

site:github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness "async list(signal" "session-persistence"

💡 Result:

In the context of the deepseek-harness codebase, the async list method is part of the session-persistence architecture used to retrieve metadata for stored sessions [1][2]. The method typically accepts an optional AbortSignal as a parameter [1][2], allowing the operation to be cancelled: async list(signal?: AbortSignal): Promise<SessionHeader[]> Implementations vary based on the storage backend: 1. SQLite Backend: The method executes a SQL query (SELECT * FROM sessions) to retrieve all materialized session metadata from the database [1]. 2. In-Memory Backend: The method iterates through the internal store and returns a list of session metadata headers [2]. 3. JSONL Backend: The method internally calls listArtifacts to scan project directories and read session headers, ensuring the operation scales with the number of sessions rather than the size of the underlying log files [3][4]. In higher-level controllers, this method may be exposed as a remote procedure call, returning visible session summaries ordered by activity [5].

Pass the AbortSignal directly to legacy list implementations.

SessionSource.list uses the positional list(signal?: AbortSignal) contract. Passing { signal } gives legacy backends the wrong argument, so they may ignore cancellation or fail when they access AbortSignal members. Dispatch to the options-object form only when that backend capability is available.
