refactor(agent-presets,web): copy-only preset authoring with a path to the files

The web YAML editor is gone. agentPreset.write (arbitrary composition
text) became agentPreset.copy { from, agentPreset, name? }: a host-side
whole-directory copy of ids the host resolves itself — symlinks
dereferenced, modes re-tightened to owner-only with owner-execute kept,
metadata rewritten to keep the source's description but never its name or
roster order. No composition text or path crosses the wire in either
authoring direction, and the entryListSchema/!!js concern dissolves with
assertComposition itself.

The settings section becomes: a read-only viewer over shipped
compositions, a copy dialog (id + optional display name) as the only
create entry, delete for custom rows, and a location action leading into
the preset's own files — agentPreset.openDocument { agentPreset } resolves
the directory host-side and opens it natively, or answers
{ opened: false, path } for the row to show as text where the deployment
has no desktop. agentPreset.list reports hasDocument beside authorable;
the gateway's nativeOpen config pins the capability where
canOpenNativePath platform detection would mislead. The privileged set is
now read/copy/openDocument/remove.

With files as the only composition editor, standing mounts grew
stamp-keyed generations: ensureStanding compares the composition file's
mtime+size and starts the next generation for later sessions, while every
joined session keeps the generation it runs on.

New keyless web lane (agent-preset-authoring, overlay pins
nativeOpen: false so goldens render one branch on every platform) drives
view/copy/reveal/delete end to end; the real-composition CLI e2e switches
to copy semantics.

+- **A settled mount serves until its composition file's stamp changes.** The composition a running session joined must survive its file changing or disappearing; each generation records the file's stamp (mtime + size) and a session that finds it stale starts the next generation, so file edits — the only composition editor once authoring became copy-only — reach later sessions without any authoring call dropping the pointer. Joined sessions keep their generation, and superseded generations are reclaimed only by whole-tree teardown — deliberate, bounded by edit frequency, recorded in the package's Known Limitations.

+# Agent Note: Copy-only preset authoring, and the way into a preset's files
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-08-08-copy-only-preset-authoring.zh.md)
+
+## Problem
+
+The agent-preset settings page carried a web YAML editor: `agentPreset.write` accepted arbitrary composition text, the page held a textarea with no completion, highlighting, or diff, and the shape check leaned on the Loader's own `entryListSchema` — whose dialect includes `!!js`, so "shape-checked text" was still arbitrary code on the next mount. Weak as an editor, wide as a capability, and the source of the editor-vs-roster races the section had to defend against.
+
+## Decision
+
+Authoring is a host-side copy, and files are the editor. `agentPreset.write` became `agentPreset.copy { from, agentPreset, name? }`: two ids the host resolves against its own roots plus an optional display name, whole-directory `cp` (symlinks dereferenced, modes re-tightened to owner-only with owner-execute kept), metadata rewritten to keep the source's description but never its name or `order`. The page becomes: read-only viewer over shipped compositions, copy dialog as the only create entry (no blank "new preset" — writing YAML from nothing is not a thing people do), delete for custom rows, and a location action that leads to the files — `agentPreset.openDocument { agentPreset }` resolves the directory host-side and opens it natively, or answers `{ opened: false, path }` for the row to show as text where the deployment has no desktop (`hasDocument` on `list`, pinned by the gateway's `nativeOpen` config where `canOpenNativePath` platform detection would mislead, e.g. e2e and containers).
+
+## Consequences
+
+- No composition text and no path crosses the browser wire in either authoring direction; the `entryListSchema`/`!!js` concern dissolves with `assertComposition` itself (deleted). The privileged set is now `read`/`copy`/`openDocument`/`remove` — none accepts a filesystem target.
+- With the editor gone, hand-editing `agent.cordis.yml` is the ONLY composition edit, so the standing-mount layer grew stamp-keyed generations: `ensureStanding` compares the file's mtime+size and starts the next generation for later sessions ([standing-mounts note](../architecture/2026-08-08-per-preset-standing-mounts.md), updated in place). Without this, an edited file would serve stale compositions until process restart.
+- A copy is a full snapshot that drifts from an upgraded shipped source — accepted; the preset layer has no patch semantics (that is the bundle layer's `cordis.patch.yml`), and the shipped set itself pays the same cost (`cordis`/`code` are full copies of `standard`) for one-file readability.
+- `read` dropped `writable` (no editor to gate) and builtin directories are never opened (`openDocument` refuses non-`user` trust like `remove`): the install is overwritten by upgrades, and pointing an editor into it invites edits an upgrade silently discards.
+
+## Load-bearing details
+
+- **Copy target refusal is two checks on purpose.** The roster check refuses any id a root supplies — a user directory named like a shipped preset would be shadowed, so "create" would land a file nothing ever lists; the disk check (`PresetExistsError` before `cp` with `errorOnExist` as the race backstop) refuses a directory occupying the name without being a preset, which discovery cannot see.
+- **The revealed path is response-direction disclosure, loopback-pinned.** The invariant "no browser payload can select an arbitrary filesystem target" is about the request direction; showing the resolved directory to the loopback user is the fallback the plan requires. It never rides the unprivileged `list`.
+- **The e2e lane pins `nativeOpen: false`** (`agent-preset-authoring.overlay.yml`) — both so goldens render the same branch on macOS dev and headless Linux CI, and so test runs never pop a real file manager. The revealed directory is tokenized as `{{presetRoot}}` by the lane itself, since `normalizeAria` only knows the workspace cwd.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+Keeping write with a better editor (CodeMirror etc.): still arbitrary capability over the wire, still the race source, and still a worse editor than the user's own. Patch-semantics copies ("standard plus this diff"): no such layer exists below the bundle plane, and the repo's own shipped presets chose full copies deliberately. Browser-side `host.openPath` with a returned path: breaks the README's no-arbitrary-target invariant the moment the path is a request parameter.

+# Agent Note: 仅复制的 preset 创作，与通往 preset 文件的入口
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-08-08-copy-only-preset-authoring.md) | 中文
+
+## Problem
+
+agent-preset 设置页带着一个网页 YAML 编辑器：`agentPreset.write` 接收任意组装文本，页面是一个没有补全、高亮或 diff 的文本域，形状检查依赖 Loader 自己的 `entryListSchema`——其方言含 `!!js`，所以「过了形状检查的文本」在下一次挂载时仍是任意代码。作为编辑器很弱，作为能力很宽，还是该分区不得不防御的「编辑器 vs 名单」竞态的来源。
+
+## Decision
+
+创作改为宿主端复制，文件就是编辑器。`agentPreset.write` 变为 `agentPreset.copy { from, agentPreset, name? }`：两个由宿主对照自身根目录解析的 id 加一个可选显示名，整目录 `cp`（符号链接解引用，权限收紧为仅属主并保留属主执行位），元数据重写为保留来源描述、但绝不保留其名称与 `order`。页面变为：随附组装的只读查看器、作为唯一创建入口的复制对话框（不再有空白「新建预设」——从零手写 YAML 不是人会做的事）、自定义行的删除，以及通向文件的位置操作——`agentPreset.openDocument { agentPreset }` 在宿主端解析目录并原生打开，部署没有桌面时回答 `{ opened: false, path }` 供卡片以文本展示（`list` 上的 `hasDocument`；在 `canOpenNativePath` 平台探测会失真处由网关的 `nativeOpen` 配置钉死，例如 e2e 与容器）。
+
+## Consequences
+
+- 创作两个方向都不再有组装文本或路径跨越浏览器传输层；`entryListSchema`/`!!js` 的顾虑随 `assertComposition` 本身（已删除）一并消解。特权集现为 `read`/`copy`/`openDocument`/`remove`——没有一个接收文件系统目标。
+- 编辑器移除后，手改 `agent.cordis.yml` 成为**唯一**的组装编辑方式，因此常驻挂载层增加了以 stamp 为键的代际：`ensureStanding` 比对文件的 mtime+大小，为后续会话开启下一代际（[常驻挂载 note](../architecture/2026-08-08-per-preset-standing-mounts.md)，已就地更新）。没有它，改过的文件要等进程重启才生效。
+- 副本是完整快照，会随随附来源升级而漂移——接受；preset 层没有 patch 语义（那是 bundle 层 `cordis.patch.yml` 的能力），随附集合自己也为「一个文件读完整份组装」付了同样的代价（`cordis`/`code` 就是 `standard` 的完整副本）。
+- `read` 去掉了 `writable`（没有编辑器可门控），内置目录绝不被打开（`openDocument` 与 `remove` 一样拒绝非 `user` 信任）：安装目录会被升级覆盖，把编辑器指向它等于招揽会被升级悄悄丢弃的编辑。
+
+## Load-bearing details
+
+- **复制目标的拒绝刻意分两道检查。** roster 检查拒绝任一根目录提供的 id——与随附 preset 同名的用户目录会被遮蔽，「创建」只会落下一个永远不被列出的文件；磁盘检查（`cp` 之前的 `PresetExistsError`，`errorOnExist` 作竞态兜底）拒绝占着名字却不是 preset 的目录，那是 discovery 看不见的。
+- **展示的路径是响应方向的披露，且钉在环回。**「没有任何浏览器载荷能选中任意文件系统目标」这条不变量说的是请求方向；把解析出的目录展示给环回用户正是方案要求的降级。它绝不搭乘非特权的 `list`。
+- **e2e lane 钉死 `nativeOpen: false`**（`agent-preset-authoring.overlay.yml`）——既让 golden 在 macOS 开发机与无头 Linux CI 上渲染同一分支，也让测试运行永不弹出真实文件管理器。揭示的目录由 lane 自己 token 化为 `{{presetRoot}}`，因为 `normalizeAria` 只认识 workspace cwd。
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+保留 write 换个更好的编辑器（CodeMirror 等）：传输层上仍是任意能力，仍是竞态来源，而且仍不如用户自己的编辑器。带 patch 语义的副本（「standard 加这点 diff」）：bundle 面之下没有这样的层，仓库自己的随附 preset 也刻意选了完整副本。浏览器端拿返回路径调 `host.openPath`：路径一旦成为请求参数，就打破了 README 的「不可选中任意目标」不变量。

+A fourth surface, its own settings page (`settings.section` id `agent-presets`, ordered after Models — choosing a model is routine, composing an agent is the deployment-shaping act behind it): the roster as cards, a copy dialog as the only way a preset is created, and a read-only viewer over the shipped compositions.
 
-A shipped preset opens read-only. It is the known-good composition a local one is written against, so reading it is the point and overwriting it is not — the deployment's copy is what a broken local preset is compared against. **Duplicate** copies any row, because a copy always lands in the local root regardless of where the text came from; **New preset** starts blank, since copying is already offered on the row being copied and a composition nobody named is text the author has to recognise as unwanted before deleting it.
+The browser edits no composition text. Editing YAML in a web textarea was a weak surface (no completion, no highlighting, no diff), so a new preset is a host-side copy of an existing one — the dialog collects an id (it becomes the directory name, which is why it must be named up front and cannot change later) and an optional display name, and `{ from, id, name? }` is all that crosses the wire. Everything else — description, composition, skills — is edited in the preset's own files, and the page's other job is getting the user TO those files: the copy completes by opening the new directory, and every custom row keeps a location action. Where the host has no desktop opener (`hasDocument: false` on the roster; remote and container deployments), the same actions answer the directory as text on the row instead of offering a button that would spawn into nothing.
 
-An id becomes a directory name, so the editor mirrors the host's own containment rule (`[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]*`) and refuses a name already in use — a create landing on an existing name would overwrite a preset the user never opened. Both checks are conveniences: the host re-applies them, along with the composition's shape, and its answer is what the editor reports on failure. A save that parses is still only a save; a composition naming a plugin that does not exist fails at the next session that selects it.
+A shipped preset opens in the read-only viewer. It is the known-good composition a copy starts from, so reading it is the point; it offers no location and no delete — its install is overwritten by upgrades and is not the user's to manage. The intro carries the guidance a create button used to imply: to start from the smallest skeleton, duplicate 极简模式 (31 lines against standard's 233).
 
-Deleting removes the file. Sessions already composed from it keep running — a composition is mounted once at session creation and nothing re-reads the file.

 Setting the default writes the `agent-presets` settings namespace, which the host exposes to configuration clients ([`dsh-apiproxy`](../../host/apiproxy/README.md) keeps an explicit allowlist — a namespace outside it makes a picker move and then silently forget).
 
-`agentPreset.read`, `write`, `remove`, and `select` are loopback-pinned ([`dsh-client-connection`](../connection/README.md)): a composition names the plugins a session runs, so reading one is reconnaissance and writing one is arbitrary capability. `agentPreset.list` is not — it carries ids and trust, and a LAN client's picker needs it.

 ## When the surfaces are absent
 
-A deployment that composes no presets answers with an empty roster, and the row, the chip, the label, and the section all render nothing — every session then shares the host composition, and there is nothing to choose between or manage.

-随部署提供的 preset 以只读方式打开。它是本地 preset 据以编写的已知良好组装，因此能读到它正是意义所在，而覆写它则不是——部署自带的那一份正是用来对照有问题的本地 preset 的。**复制**复制任意一行；无论文本来自何处，副本总是落在本地根目录，所以副本总是可写的。**新建 preset** 则从空白开始——复制这件事已经由被复制那一行自己提供，而一份没人指名的组装，只会让作者先认出它不是自己想要的、再把它删掉。
+浏览器不再编辑任何组装文本。在网页文本域里编 YAML 是弱功能（无补全、无高亮、无 diff），因此新 preset 是宿主端对既有 preset 的一次复制——对话框只收集一个 id（它将成为目录名，所以必须当场取好、事后无法更改）与一个可选显示名，跨越传输层的只有 `{ from, id, name? }`。其余一切——描述、组装、skills——都在 preset 自己的文件里编辑，而本页的另一职责正是把用户送到那些文件面前：复制以打开新目录作为收尾，每张自定义卡片也保有一个位置操作。宿主没有桌面打开器时（名单上的 `hasDocument: false`；远程与容器部署），同样的操作改为把目录以文本显示在卡片上，而不是提供一个点了没反应的按钮。
 
-id 会成为目录名，因此编辑器复刻宿主自身的约束规则（`[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]*`），并拒绝已被占用的名称——新建若落在已存在的名称上，就会覆盖用户从未打开过的 preset。这两项检查只是便利：宿主会连同组装的形状一起重新校验，失败时编辑器报告的正是宿主的答复。能解析的保存也仅仅是保存；引用了不存在插件的组装，会在下一个选择它的会话处失败。

-`agentPreset.read`、`write`、`remove` 与 `select` 被固定在环回地址（见 [`dsh-client-connection`](../connection/README.md)）：组装指明了一个会话所运行的插件，因此读取它是侦察，写入它是任意能力。`agentPreset.list` 不在其中——它只携带 id 与信任级别，而局域网客户端的选择器需要它。

-未组装任何 preset 的部署返回空名单，本行、chip、标签与分区都不渲染任何内容——此时每个会话共用宿主组装，也就无从选择或管理。未配置可写根目录的部署返回 `authorable: false`，分区随之退化为只读浏览：各行仍可打开，但任何位置都不提供"新建"，而不是给出一个保存必然失败的按钮。

 The `agentPreset.list` domain exposes the deployment's preset roster so a browser can offer a choice when starting a session; each row carries its `trust` (a `user` preset is exactly as privileged as the plugins it names) and whether it is the current default. A deployment composing no presets answers with an empty roster rather than an error, because sharing the host composition is a valid deployment. `agentPreset.select` recomposes one session's agent from a different preset, and is allowed only while the session is blank: once a turn has run, that history was produced under the preset's tools and swapping them would strand logged tool calls, so the attempt answers `agent-preset-locked`. The agent and the session survive — only the composition is swapped, and a failed swap restores the previous one.
 
-`agentPreset.read`, `write`, and `remove` author the compositions themselves. `read` reports the text with its `trust` and whether it is `writable`; `write` and `remove` refuse a preset that ships with the deployment, and `write` refuses an id that is not a containable directory name or text that is not a Cordis entry list (`agent-preset-invalid`), a refusal that reaches the caller as `agent-preset-read-only` for the shipped case. These three are loopback-pinned in [`dsh-client-connection`](../../client/connection/README.md): a composition names the plugins a session runs, so reading one is reconnaissance and writing one is arbitrary capability. `list` and `select` stay ordinary — the roster carries ids and trust and every preset picker needs it, and choosing a preset grants nothing `session.create`'s own `agentPreset` did not, over a default that already carries bash. `list` reports `authorable`, whether the deployment configures a root a new preset could be written to at all.
+`agentPreset.read`, `copy`, `openDocument`, and `remove` manage the compositions themselves. `read` reports the text with its `trust`, for the read-only viewer. Authoring is copy-only: `copy` takes `{ from, agentPreset, name? }` — two ids the Host resolves against its own roots plus an optional display name — and copies the source's whole directory, so no composition text crosses the wire and a copy is exactly as loadable as its source; an uncontainable or already-taken id answers `agent-preset-invalid`, and `remove` refuses a shipped preset as `agent-preset-read-only`. `openDocument` hands one locally authored preset's DIRECTORY to the platform opener — the request carries an id, never a path, so no browser payload can select an arbitrary filesystem target; where the deployment has no native opener the reply is `{ opened: false, path }` for the surface to show as text, a shipped preset is refused like `remove`, and the gateway's `nativeOpen` config pins the capability where platform detection (`canOpenNativePath`) would mislead. These four are loopback-pinned in [`dsh-client-connection`](../../client/connection/README.md): a composition names the plugins a session runs, so reading one is reconnaissance, and copy/remove/openDocument manage the roster and drive the host desktop. `list` and `select` stay ordinary — the roster carries ids and trust and every preset picker needs it, and choosing a preset grants nothing `session.create`'s own `agentPreset` did not, over a default that already carries bash. `list` reports two path-free capability flags: `authorable`, whether the deployment configures a root a new preset could be copied to, and `hasDocument`, whether `openDocument` would open natively rather than answer a path.
 
 The `command.*` and `skill.*` domains expose the host command registry and skill catalog to clients. Every method addresses one session's agent by `sessionId` (a served session always has an Agent; `command.*` resumes cold sessions through the same path as `session.*`, while `skill.list` resolves the project root from the session header without touching the Agent registry). `skill.list` serves the browser's user-selected model-reference path, so it returns only skills that are both model-invocable and user-invocable; this domain has no direct skill-loading RPC. `command.execute` runs a slash-command line host-side with pure admission semantics: the response reports whether the line resolved to a handler plus the minted lifecycle `commandId` when it did (correlating the acknowledgment with the flow node), while the outcome rides the durably logged `command/run`/`command/done` lifecycle pair broadcast on the mux stream. Command handlers may legitimately outlast the 30-second transport health deadline, so `command.execute` carries only caller/connection cancellation; that signal cancels the running handler. `host/commands-changed` is the catalog invalidation frame: clients refetch `command.list` instead of diffing.

+- `ctx.agentPresets.copy(from, id, name?): Promise<void>` Create a locally authored preset by copying an existing one's whole directory — the only authoring write. No composition text crosses this seam, so a copy is exactly as loadable as its source; the copied metadata keeps the source's description but never its name or roster order, and `name` (or the id fallback) is what distinguishes the rows.
 - `ctx.agentPresets.remove(id): Promise<void>` Delete a locally authored preset; joined sessions keep their standing mount. Clears the user default when it named the preset just deleted: storing a default that does not exist yet is deliberate, but one this call removed will never be supplied again and would fail every session created without an explicit pick.

 ### Where to call `mount()`
 
-The agent factory's `setup(agentCtx)` hook is the one supported call site. Only there is the join installed while the agent is still unpublished, so a rejected composition rolls the whole creation back rather than leaving a half-composed session. The standing subtree is owned by the roster service's own fiber — deliberately its UNTRACED context, because a subtree minted from a traced `this.ctx` resolves every service through the caller's shadow fiber instead of each entry's own inject store — so it survives every agent and unwinds only with the whole tree. A settled mount is permanent for the process: the composition a running session joined must outlive its file changing or disappearing underneath it, so file edits reach only future generations.

 ## Authoring
 
-A locally authored preset is a directory under the first `user` root holding one `agent.cordis.yml`. `write()` refuses three things before anything lands:
+Authoring is copy-only. A new preset is a whole-directory copy of an existing one — composition, metadata, skill directories, assets — landed under the first `user` root; the inputs are two ids the service resolves against its own roots plus an optional display name, so no caller ever supplies composition text and a copy grants nothing the roster did not already carry. Everything after creation happens in the preset's own files. `copy()` refuses three things before anything lands:
 
 - **An id that is not `[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]*`.** The id becomes a directory name, so containment is a property of the id itself rather than of a path check after the fact — `../escape`, `a/b`, and an absolute path are all rejected as ids.
-- **Text that is not a Cordis entry list.** The content is parsed with the loader's own schema and dialect (`!!js` included), so a save cannot leave a file no session could load. Shape only: a composition naming a plugin that does not exist is accepted here and fails at the next session that selects it.
-- **A preset that ships with the deployment.** Overwriting one would remove the known-good composition a broken local preset is compared against. `remove()` refuses the same.
+- **An id that is already taken.** A copy never overwrites: any root supplying the id refuses it (a user directory named like a shipped preset would be shadowed by it), and a directory occupying the name on disk without being a preset refuses it too.
+- **An unknown source.** The source may be any trust — copying a shipped preset is the primary case — but it must exist; a failed copy rolls its half-made directory back rather than leaving one discovery cannot see.
 
-Writes are atomic and owner-only (`0o600`, in a `0o700` directory), and the root is created on first write — a deployment configuring a user root that does not exist yet is the normal first-run state.
+The copied tree is re-tightened to owner-only (`0o600` files keeping their owner-execute bit, `0o700` directories), symlinks are dereferenced so the copy is self-contained, and the root is created on first copy — a deployment configuring a user root that does not exist yet is the normal first-run state. The copied `preset.yml` is rewritten: the source's description is kept for the author to edit in place, but its name and roster `order` are dropped — a copy presenting itself identically to its source, or sorted into the shipped set's declared order, would make the roster stop distinguishing them. `remove()` refuses a preset that ships with the deployment; the shipped set is the known-good compositions copies start from.

 ## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
 
 - **A preset cannot be changed once a session has produced anything** — `recompose` re-links a BLANK session's parent scope to another standing mount, and only a blank one: switching a composition that already ran would strand tools the model has called. Changing the default affects only sessions created afterwards.
-- **A standing mount reads its file once per generation** — the first session to name a preset fixes its composition until an authoring `write()`/`remove()` drops the pointer or the whole tree unloads; sessions already joined keep their generation, and nothing reclaims a superseded one while the process lives (bounded by how often compositions are edited, not by sessions).
-- **A written composition is never mounted to validate** — `write()` checks shape, not resolvability, so a preset naming a missing plugin is stored and fails at the next session that selects it.
-- **Display names are the directory id** — a preset carries no manifest, so pickers and settings surfaces show the id until a consumer needs richer metadata.
+- **A generation is keyed on the composition file alone** — the stamp check notices `agent.cordis.yml` changing, not an edit to a skill file or asset beside it; those reach new sessions only once the composition file itself moves or the process restarts. Sessions already joined keep their generation, and nothing reclaims a superseded one while the process lives (bounded by how often compositions are edited, not by sessions).
+- **A copy is never mounted to validate** — it is byte-identical to its source, so a source broken on disk yields a copy that fails at the next session that selects it, exactly as the source would.
+- **A copy is a snapshot that drifts** — upgrading the deployment does not update copies of shipped presets, and there is no patch semantics at this layer to express "standard plus one change" (that is the bundle layer's `cordis.patch.yml`); the shipped set itself accepts the same cost — `cordis` and `code` are full copies of `standard` — so the whole assembly stays readable in one file.
 - **Root scans are not watched** — every read hits the filesystem instead, which keeps the roster fresh but puts one `readdir` per root on each `list()`.

 ## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
 
 - **会话一旦产出内容便无法更换 preset** —— `recompose` 把**空白**会话的父作用域重链到另一个常驻挂载，且仅限空白会话：切换已运行过的组装会抽走模型已调用的工具。更改默认值只影响此后创建的会话。
-- **常驻挂载每个代际只读一次文件** —— 首个命名某 preset 的会话固定其组装，直到创作面的 `write()`/`remove()` 丢弃指针或整棵树卸载；已加入的会话保持其代际，进程存活期间不回收被替代的代际（上限取决于组装被编辑的频率，而非会话数）。
-- **写入的组装从不被实际挂载以校验** —— `write()` 校验形状而非可解析性，因此引用了缺失插件的 preset 会被存下，并在下一个选择它的会话处失败。
-- **展示名称就是目录 id** —— preset 不携带 manifest，因此选择器与设置界面在有消费方需要更丰富的元数据之前，只显示 id。
+- **代际只以组装文件为键** —— stamp 检查只察觉 `agent.cordis.yml` 的变化，察觉不到旁边 skill 文件或资产的编辑；那些编辑要等组装文件本身变动或进程重启才达到新会话。已加入的会话保持其代际，进程存活期间不回收被替代的代际（上限取决于组装被编辑的频率，而非会话数）。
+- **副本从不被实际挂载以校验** —— 它与来源逐字节相同，因此磁盘上已坏的来源会产出同样在下一个选择它的会话处失败的副本，与来源的失败方式完全一致。
+- **副本是会漂移的快照** —— 升级部署不会更新随附 preset 的副本，本层也没有表达「standard 加一处改动」的 patch 语义（那是 bundle 层 `cordis.patch.yml` 的能力）；随附集合自己也接受同样的代价——`cordis` 与 `code` 就是 `standard` 的完整副本——换来整份组装在一个文件里可读。
 - **根目录扫描不做监听** —— 每次读取都实际访问文件系统，这让名单保持新鲜，但每次 `list()` 会对每个根目录产生一次 `readdir`。
