+# Agent Note: The dispose ladder belongs to its consumer, not the subprocess seam
+
+Status: implemented
+
+English | [中文](2026-07-27-dispose-ladder-to-consumer.zh.md)
+
+## Problem
+
+`SubprocessHandle.dispose(graces)` and `SubprocessDisposeGraces` put a full teardown *policy* — stdin-EOF wait, then SIGTERM, then SIGKILL, each tier bounded by a caller-supplied window — on a seam whose other verbs are single mechanisms. Only one consumer ever called it (the ACP subagent backend); bash rides `terminate()` and service teardown, and the LSP host runs its own protocol-first shutdown. Every future backend nonetheless had to implement the ladder to satisfy the interface, and the implementation carried a `dsh-timeout` dependency solely for the ladder's tier bounds.
+
+## Decision
+
+The ladder moves to its one consumer. `dsh-subagent-acp` owns `disposeAcpChild(child, eofGraceMs, graceMs)`, built entirely on the seam's public verbs: close `stdin`, bound a `waitForExit` on `eofGraceMs`, then `terminate()` (whose SIGTERM→spec-grace→SIGKILL escalation already encodes the signal tiers), then a final bounded whole-tree wait that throws if survivors remain. The seam keeps `kill`/`terminate`/`waitForExit` — mechanisms, not policy — and `waitForExit(signal?)` is exactly the quiescence probe a consumer ladder needs to hold each tier on real tree exit. `dsh-subprocess-local` drops its `dsh-timeout` dependency; the seam's handle loses one method and one exported interface.
+
+## Alternatives considered
+
+**Keep the ladder on the handle as a convenience.** Rejected: a seam method every implementation must provide is not a convenience, it is contract surface — and this one encodes one consumer's cooperation shape (stdin-EOF-first) as if it were process vocabulary. The seam's own README already had to caveat that children quiescing on other signals need "their own tier-1", which is the admission that the ladder is policy.
+
+**Move the ladder to a shared helper package.** Rejected: one consumer. A second out-of-process backend with the same stdin-EOF cooperation shape can lift `disposeAcpChild` to shared code when it exists; extracting now would recreate `dsh-subagent-subprocess`, the single-purpose library this stack just deleted.
+
+## Consequences
+
+Bought: the seam is one method and one type smaller; implementations owe four verbs and no teardown policy; `dsh-subprocess-local` loses a dependency; the ladder's tier windows live beside the config fields that tune them. Cost: a future backend wanting EOF-first teardown writes ~20 lines against the verbs (or lifts the ACP helper); the ladder's tier-tier tests moved from the seam suite to the ACP suite, and the seam suite pins the verbs the ladder composes (bounded `waitForExit` false-then-true across an escalation) instead of the composed policy.

+# Agent Note: dispose 阶梯归其消费方所有，而非 subprocess seam
+
+Status: implemented
+
+[English](2026-07-27-dispose-ladder-to-consumer.md) | 中文
+
+## 问题
+
+`SubprocessHandle.dispose(graces)` 与 `SubprocessDisposeGraces` 把一整套拆卸*策略*——等待 stdin EOF、再 SIGTERM、再 SIGKILL，每一层由调用方提供的时间窗约束——放在了一个其余动词均为单一机制的 seam 上。它始终只有一个调用方（ACP subagent 后端）；bash 走 `terminate()` 与服务拆卸，LSP 主机运行自己的协议优先关闭流程。然而每个未来后端都必须实现该阶梯才能满足接口，实现包也仅为阶梯的层级时限背上了 `dsh-timeout` 依赖。
+
+## 决策
+
+阶梯移入其唯一消费方。`dsh-subagent-acp` 拥有 `disposeAcpChild(child, eofGraceMs, graceMs)`，完全构建在 seam 的公开动词之上：关闭 `stdin`，以 `eofGraceMs` 约束一次 `waitForExit`，随后 `terminate()`（其 SIGTERM→spec 宽限期→SIGKILL 升级已编码了信号层级），最后进行有界的整树等待，若仍有存活进程则抛出。seam 保留 `kill`／`terminate`／`waitForExit`——机制而非策略——而 `waitForExit(signal?)` 恰是消费方阶梯在每一层确认进程树真正退出所需的停稳探针。`dsh-subprocess-local` 卸下 `dsh-timeout` 依赖；seam 的句柄少了一个方法和一个导出接口。
+
+## 曾考虑的替代方案
+
+**把阶梯作为便利方法留在句柄上。**否决：一个每个实现都必须提供的 seam 方法不是便利，而是契约表面——而这一个把某一消费方的配合形状（stdin EOF 打头）当作进程词汇来编码。seam 自己的 README 早已不得不加注「依赖其他信号停稳的子进程需要自己的第一阶」，这本身就是承认该阶梯是策略。
+
+**把阶梯移到共享辅助包。**否决：只有一个消费方。当第二个具有相同 stdin EOF 配合形状的进程外后端出现时，可以再把 `disposeAcpChild` 提升为共享代码；现在抽取只会重造 `dsh-subagent-subprocess`——这组堆叠变更刚刚删掉的那个单一用途库。
+
+## 后果
+
+买到的：seam 少了一个方法和一个类型；实现只欠四个动词，不欠拆卸策略；`dsh-subprocess-local` 少了一个依赖；阶梯的层级时间窗与调节它们的配置字段住在一起。代价：未来想要 EOF 打头拆卸的后端需针对这些动词写约 20 行（或直接搬 ACP 的辅助函数）；阶梯的层级测试从 seam 套件移入 ACP 套件，seam 套件转而钉住阶梯所组合的动词（升级前后有界 `waitForExit` 先假后真），而非组合后的策略。

-- **Detached process trees with platform-correct signalling** — POSIX children are spawned `detached` (own process group) and signalled by negative pgid with a direct-child fallback; Windows terminates the tree via `taskkill /PID <pid> /T /F` (injectable for tests). `terminate()` — the handle's only termination verb — sends SIGTERM then SIGKILL after the spec's grace (OpenCode's escalation; pipelines and subshells die with the parent) and is a no-op once the tree is gone; `dispose(graces)` runs stdin-EOF → SIGTERM → SIGKILL with caller-supplied windows and one memoized disposal per handle. After the leader exits, still-open pipes receive the same bounded drain grace so a surviving descendant cannot hold the outcome open indefinitely. ESRCH is tolerated; daemons that re-parent away from the group can still survive — the same caveat as the surveyed tools.

After the leader exits, still-open pipes receive the same bounded drain grace so a surviving descendant cannot hold the outcome open indefinitely. ESRCH is tolerated; daemons that re-parent away from the group can still survive — the same caveat as the surveyed tools.
 - **Per-stream dispositions** — `'pipe'` hands the raw stream to the caller untouched (protocol framing stays consumer-owned); `'inherit'` passes the parent descriptor through; collect mode keeps the in-memory TAIL beyond its cap (errors and results cluster at the end — pi/OpenCode rationale) while the FULL stream is appended to a private temp file when a spill cap is configured — omitting `spill` keeps only the tail, the diagnostic shape. A stream larger than the spill cap discards its now-incomplete spill and returns only the marked truncated tail; spill fds are sealed at settlement, and a failed final close withholds the path rather than advertising an incomplete file. Spill files are `0600` with random names under a lazily-created `0700` per-process directory.
 - **Credential scrub + managed `DSH_*` merge** — `process.env` minus credential-shaped vars (`*KEY*`/`*SECRET*`/`*TOKEN*`) and all ambient `DSH_*` names; a spec's ordinary `env` merges after the scrub but rejects `DSH_*`; managed `dshEnv` rejects ordinary names and merges last, preventing stale nested-harness identity. Supplied stdin is written and closed; otherwise fd 0 is `/dev/null`. See the [stdin/env Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-06-30-bash-stdin-env-trusted-plugin-surface.md) and [managed environment Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-10-agent-session-identity-and-log-location.md).
 - **Offset-based reads** — collect-mode readers return deltas in whole-stream byte coordinates; the service never holds a cursor, so consumer-owned cursors (the bash background read path) and full-stream re-reads coexist, before and after settlement.

 - **按流划分的处置方式**：`'pipe'` 把原始流原样交给调用方（协议分帧仍归消费方所有）；`'inherit'` 直通父进程的描述符；收集模式（collect）在输出超过上限后于内存中保留尾部（错误与结果通常聚集在末尾，沿用 pi/OpenCode 的理由），并在配置了 spill 上限时把完整流追加到一个私有临时文件；省略 `spill` 则只保留尾部，即诊断尾部的形状。某条流大于 spill 上限时，会丢弃已不完整的 spill，仅返回带截断标记的尾部；spill 文件描述符在结算时封存，最终关闭失败时则不公布路径，以免声称存在不完整的文件。spill 文件权限为 `0600`、名称随机，位于按需延迟创建的 `0700` 每进程目录之下。
 - **凭据清除 + 受管 `DSH_*` 合并**：以 `process.env` 为基础，移除形似凭据的变量（`*KEY*`／`*SECRET*`／`*TOKEN*`）和所有环境中已有的 `DSH_*` 名称；spec 的普通 `env` 在清除后合并，但会拒绝 `DSH_*`；受管 `dshEnv` 会拒绝普通名称并最后合并，防止陈旧的嵌套 harness 身份。提供的 stdin 会被写入后关闭；否则 fd 0 指向 `/dev/null`。参见 [stdin/env Agent Note（agent 决策记录）](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/architecture/2026-06-30-bash-stdin-env-trusted-plugin-surface.md)与[受管环境 Agent Note](../../../.agents/notes/implemented/feature/2026-07-10-agent-session-identity-and-log-location.md)。
 - **基于偏移量的读取**：收集模式的读取器以全流字节坐标返回增量；服务自身从不持有游标，因此消费方自有的游标（bash 的后台读取路径）与完整流重读可以共存，结算前后皆然。

 - The spec is fully explicit — argv, cwd, per-stream stdio dispositions, grace — because deployment-varying defaults belong to the calling seam's config, not to a hidden subprocess-service default (the `dsh-bash` request/spec split is the owning template). `argv` is never shell-interpreted; a consumer that wants a shell passes `['bash', '-c', command]` itself.
 - Stdio is Node-shaped per stream: `'pipe'` hands the caller the raw stream for its own protocol framing (LSP JSON-RPC, ACP ndjson), `'inherit'` passes the parent descriptor through for diagnostics, and collect mode (`{ maxBytes, spill? }`) buffers a bounded tail with an optional full-stream spill file. Collect readers take whole-stream byte offsets and never consume, so independent readers cannot steal one another's deltas; a read whose offset slid out of the in-memory tail is `lossy` and points at the spill file when one exists. Collected output stays readable after settlement.

Spawners that cannot route through the service (node-pty backends, SDK-managed transports) import the scrub.

 - **node-pty and SDK-managed spawns share only the scrub** — the PTY backend's terminal fork and the MCP SDK's own stdio transport cannot route their spawns through this seam (the library owns the fork/spawn call); they import `scrubbedParentEnv` so the environment policy stays single-sourced.
