session.read and session.submit are separate capabilities, so a mod that only
reads usage cannot put words in front of the model. One prompt a mod queues is
bounded by [mods] submit_bytes (8 KiB, 0 for none) and refused with a typed
identity that does not spend the per-turn count. The docs say the turn a queued
prompt starts is held to this session's own approvals and sandbox.
Add owner headers to twelve contract and design documents, split their
over-wide paragraphs into rules, route their ownership to the primary
named in CODEOWNERS, and treat the generated protocol index as a
machine-read file. Baseline: doc-owner 40 -> 27, doc-prose 2276 -> 2147.
internal/ was 141 packages side by side, so nothing but a reader's memory
said which were foundations and which assembled the rest. Each now sits in a
layer directory, and the directory is the declaration:
base L0 foundation with no domain in it
contract L1 types and interfaces the layers above agree on
model, tools, safety, ext, state, platform
L2 subsystems, peers of one another
runtime L3 the turn engine
session L4 the controller
assembly L5 the composition root
frontend L6 cli, serve, acp and the host adapters
Only paths change: package names, code and behaviour do not. Imports,
repolint and coverage baselines, sensitive paths, CI package lists and docs
follow the new paths; release notes keep the paths they were written with,
and sample paths inside tests and fixtures keep theirs.
repolint gains layer-order: a package may import its own layer and those
below it, read from where it lives. The 47 imports that point upward today
are recorded as that rule's opening debt (-allow-widen, a new rule's first
baseline) and can only go down. Most of it is config, which still reaches
into eight subsystems and is the next thing to take apart; the rest is
event, history and a few tools reaching into runtime for types that belong
in contract.
A runtime could only replace a tool by name, and that slot was never routed
to it, so a plugin that wanted to add one had to ship an MCP server. A
runtime now declares tools in its manifest, under runtime.tools with the
tools capability: a name, a description and an object input schema, known
before the process starts and shown in the install plan and the package
list. At initialize the runtime names the declared tools it serves; one the
manifest does not describe fails the handshake as capability_not_declared.
The model sees each as ext__<plugin>__<tool> and reaches it through the
capability catalog the way it reaches MCP tools, so installing or reloading
a plugin never moves the cached prompt prefix, and every call passes the
permission check under that name. A call is the new host request
extension/tool/call, bounded at five minutes; isError carries a failure the
tool reports about its own work, apart from a call that could not run.
A runtime that failed to start contributes no tools.
The Go SDK serves them from Options.Tools and names them in the handshake.
An effect test drives a call through the real assembly to a fake runtime and
back to the model, and fails with the registration removed.
Both were parsed by pluginpkg and went nowhere, while the docs said they
worked. A package's prompts are now discovered with its commands and invoked
the same way, /<plugin>:<name>, which is what the manifest documented. Its
themes are Studio theme packs: an entry names a pack's theme.json, and the
theme library lists it as plugin:<plugin>:<directory>, read in place from the
plugin root with its own images, never copied into the user's library, and
gone when the plugin is disabled. The retired desktop's .reasonix-theme
archives are not a format Studio reads, and the docs now say so.
The plugin docs are brought in line with the code: the Studio installer takes
a repository address or a folder (a .zip installs through the CLI), the routes
Studio drives replace a list of Wails methods that no longer exist, and the
protocol documents the panel and view surface kinds it already carries.
Problem:
Runtime publish gates, receipts, file priors, message deduplication, and stream cancellation were process-global, so rebuilding one session could drain or overwrite another session's lifecycle evidence. The v2 manifest path also still exposed migration behavior for versioned manifests.
Root cause:
Lifecycle state was wired through package globals instead of the controller/session lineage, and migration/parser compatibility retained assumptions from the unpublished manifest v1 design. Drain cancellation also allowed callbacks to register after a generation had already expired.
Fix:
Introduce an explicit RuntimeOwner carried through boot, controller, provider, UI, host streams, receipts, and file-write compensation. Reuse it only within a rebuild lineage, defer replacement publication until commit, reject draining turns, make late drain registrations cancel immediately, and enforce v2-only versioned manifests while limiting explicit migration to pre-extension manifests without apiVersion.

Problem:
Sidecar protocol errors could surface credential-shaped peer messages, and stalled optional runtimes could multiply boot latency by the installed package count.
Root cause:
The host preserved JSON-RPC error messages verbatim and started every runtime sequentially with an independent handshake timeout.
Fix:
Redact peer, startup, crash, and boot-warning messages at host boundaries. Start runtime packages with a four-worker pool under one shared 30-second generation budget while preserving deterministic result ordering. Document the lifecycle and performance contract.

Problem:
Extension catalog cold reads could issue duplicate concurrent RPCs, observation events could block the Agent behind a wedged sidecar, SDK callback concurrency was implicit, and stable enabled-extension cache behavior had no release guard.
Root cause:
Catalog caching used an unlocked check-then-fetch sequence, event notifications waited for physical writes, and equal host/SDK intercept deadlines could race into different error reasons.
Fix:
Coalesce per-plugin catalog fetches, add a bounded non-blocking notification path that preserves request capacity, freeze SDK timeout classification, document concurrent callbacks, and add real-sidecar p50/p95 benchmarks plus a stable-extension cache guard.

Stage 10 of the unified extension kernel / Extension Protocol v1 plan.
- New docs: EXTENSIONS.md/.zh-CN.md (capability map, install/manage,
fail-atomic reload semantics, development guide, compatibility,
full-trust security model) and EXTENSION_PROTOCOL.md/.zh-CN.md (prose
companion to the generated index: transport, lifecycle, content refs,
interception, streaming providers, structured UI, errors, v1 stability
contract, security model).
- Updated docs: PLUGIN_PACKAGES (Manifest v1 chapter: strict parsing,
merge rules, prompts/themes, runtime declaration, FULL TRUST disclosure
and --link trust inheritance), CAPABILITY_DIAGNOSTICS (additive v1
prompts/themes/runtime fields, schema_version stays 1), CLI (/reload),
ACP (_reasonix.io/session/reloadExtensions, extensionSurface
negotiation, /<plugin>:<action> discovery), RELEASING (sdk/go/vX.Y.Z
tag convention, three-product tag contract unchanged), THEME_PACK
(plugin theme kind and fallback-preserve, from stage 4).
- CI: new sdk job on the three-OS matrix (gofmt, vet, stdlib-only guard,
test, race on pushes) triggered by sdk/ or internal/extension/ changes;
root conformance tests run in the existing root matrix.
- Makefile: sdk-test / sdk-test-race targets.
- Bundle budget: initial raw JS+CSS 2250 -> 2265 KiB with a comment
recording the extension UI surface as the cause; every gzip budget
(the user-visible transfer cost) is unchanged and passing.
Compatibility audit (kept green by tests added in stages 1-9): legacy
manifests parse byte-identically, plugin-packages.json schema unchanged,
session JSONL untouched with extension state isolated to
<session>.extensions.json, desktop theme state preserves plugin: IDs
across uninstall while legacy files load unchanged, install-plan JSON is
omitempty-additive, plugin/... refs degrade to model-unavailable on old
versions, and the two new event kinds append at the enum end with
text fallbacks for old clients.
