Summary
Use dsh-agent-tool-presentation in an agent preset to fix whether models see every native tool schema, only run_code with a generated SDK, or both forms. Each preset can choose independently, so native and PTC agents can share one process without sharing tool catalogs. Selecting ptc or both requires a compatible code runtime; a deployment without one rejects the preset at mount time before its first prompt. The mode field is required when this package is present, while omitting the package keeps the deployment default.

Use this package
Add this row to an agent preset to fix how every agent joined to that preset sees its tools. native presents each visible tool schema as a function definition; ptc presents only the run_code transport plus a generated SDK and the rule that only run_code may be called directly; both presents both forms. Agents that declare nothing get the deployment-wide mode on the dsh-tools row.
Add the row to a preset
- name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-agent-tool-presentation'
config:
mode: ptc
| Field | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
mode |
required | native — every schema; ptc — run_code plus generated SDK; both — both forms |
The generated configuration catalog is the exhaustive source for every accepted field. mode is required rather than defaulted because a preset without this row inherits the deployment default.
What PTC mode requires
Selecting ptc or both needs a composed code runtime (ctx.codeRuntime) whose language has a registered SDK renderer — the TypeScript runtime ships via dsh-code-runtime-worker-thread, and both the TypeScript and Python SDK renderers are built into dsh-tools. A preset that selects a PTC mode against a deployment composing no such runtime refuses to mount, naming this row, so the failure lands where the operator can act instead of at the session's first request.
One presentation per agent
One agent declares one presentation. A second declaration in the same composition is refused rather than merged: two answers to "which form does the model see" is a contradiction, not an override.

This section explains how the package realizes the behavior above; the observable contract is covered in [Use this package](#use-this-package). ### Design concept The tool registry cannot move into a preset: its consumers are all host-plane — the agent loop reads its scheduler, the API proxy reads its presenters, and every tool plugin registers into it — and a service only moves down when all of its consumers move with it. What a preset can own is the presentation of that registry. `ctx.tools.presentAs()` declares it for the mounting scope, which is the preset's standing mount, so the declaration covers every agent joined to that preset and a PTC mode preset runs beside native ones in one process. One row per composition, not one per session. ### Source map | File | Role | |---|---| | [`src/index.ts`](src/index.ts) | Plugin entry: `mode` config, `apply` wiring `ctx.tools.presentAs` for the mounting scope | | — | No runtime invariant companion is published; this package makes exactly one scoped call into `ctx.tools` and owns no event or snapshot of its own; the relation it establishes — which presentation one agent's assembly uses — is the tool registry's to hold, and `dsh-tools` observes it there. | ### Behavior notes `native` applies immediately. A PTC mode instead waits for `ctx.codeRuntime`, a host-plane service: a preset selecting PTC mode against a deployment composing no runtime holds this row pending, and `dsh-agent-presets` refuses the mount naming this id. `presentAs` is itself the effect, so the declaration unwinds with this row without a second wrapper owning it.Further Exploration
The package-level contract is enough for most consumers; read these when you need the surrounding domain.
- tools package — the tool presentation modes and
presentAsAPI. - agent-presets package — how presets compose agents and their standing mounts.
- code-runtime worker-thread package — the TypeScript runtime a PTC mode needs.
- PTC mode executor-collapse note — why the announced and callable surfaces stay the same.
- Core group map — how the core packages compose.
Model Experience
Indirectly, through the tool presentation it selects in dsh-tools — the row only chooses between the two projections dsh-tools owns and registers no prompt, schema, or result of its own.
KV Cache effect
No direct invalidation; the presentation is fixed when the agent is composed, so its request prefix is stable for the session's life.
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
These limits define when this row needs special care. They are current package constraints, not a task backlog.
- The runtime stays host-plane — a preset can select PTC mode but cannot supply the TypeScript runtime it needs; a deployment that composes none can compose no ptc preset.
