Yushan 3551e72e76 MUL-7232 feat(daemon): add dsh desktop(self-hosted) support (#8237)
* feat(daemon): discover the DSH CLI bundled in DeepSeek Harness Desktop

DeepSeek Harness Desktop ships its CLI inside the .app and never installs
`dsh` onto PATH, so a GUI-launched daemon missed it on exec.LookPath — and the
login-shell sweep could not rescue it either, because no rc file has a reason
to know that path. Only a hand-made symlink made dsh visible at all.

Add the app-bundle fallback the Codex provider has had since #5205. The
candidate is a Node script rather than a native binary, so it counts only while
it is executable: an entry discovered without the executable bit would be
advertised as a healthy runtime and then fail on every spawn.

The Multica runtime profile gate still applies — a bundled CLI without the
profile is not a runtime.

* fix(daemon): report and install the missing DSH runtime profile

probeAgentCLIs is documented as pure discovery, but dsh's runtime-profile gate
lived inside it — one layer above the verdict machinery that turns a drop into
a /health skipped_agents reason and a daemon-log line. A dsh binary without the
profile therefore vanished from the runtime list with nothing anywhere saying
why, which is the shape the DSH reports in #7721 and #6936 run into.

Move the gate down to probeBuiltinRuntime and give it its own verdict: dsh is
now discovered like any other CLI, and failing to use it is a reported,
actionable drop. The verdict is deterministic, so it demotes immediately rather
than waiting out a confirmation window — it is a fact about the CLI's
environment, not about bytes mid-write. The executable is checked first,
because probeDshMulticaProfile cannot tell "the profile refused" from "there
was nothing to run", and would otherwise blame a missing profile for a path
that vanished under us.

Reporting is only half of it: DSH is the one built-in whose CLI is not enough
on its own, and no other provider needs anything installed into the agent's own
home. MULTICA_DSH_PROFILE_BUNDLE now names what to install — an npm spec, a
directory or a tarball, candidates tried in order. Unset stays the default and
means "do not touch the user's DSH installation"; there is nothing to point it
at yet either, because Multica's own bridge is unpublished (#6936).

DSH Desktop ships the pnpm that `dsh plugin` forwards to inside its own
runtime-commands directory and injects it only for the processes it spawns, so
the install prepends that directory to PATH. Without it the command fails with
"pnpm not found on PATH" on exactly the machines this is for. The install runs
once per daemon, and the discovery loop is kicked when it finishes so dsh comes
online immediately instead of at the next tick.

* fix(daemon): keep a registered dsh runtime in step with its runtime profile

Two states have to agree: the Multica runtime profile is installed, and a dsh
runtime is registered. Neither disagreement corrects itself, and both leave the
server routing work into a CLI that cannot start.

When the profile is removed, dsh stays discovered and keeps its runtime, so
nothing else in the discovery loop looks at it again. Observed in the field: a
profile removed a minute after startup stayed live for three minutes and a chat
task failed against it. When a profile is installed by hand, the runtime is
missing but the converge backoff has already doubled to agentConvergeMaxBackoff
(30m) over the rounds that could not register it, so the fix stays invisible
for up to half an hour.

Compare the two states on every tick and force a round on disagreement, in
either direction. A round forced for a registered provider has nothing missing
to register, so convergeRuntimeRegistrations now consumes the verdict map it
used to discard — safe because demoteUnusableRuntimes owns the claim barrier
and the seq-stamped hold, and stays the single owner of demotion.

The profile's presence is a stat of the manifest DSH itself looks for, so the
check costs one syscall per tick; the authoritative --probe stays inside the
probe round the check forces.

* docs(runtime): document the DSH runtime-profile variables

The two variables this branch adds were undocumented, and the install guide
still told readers to run `dsh plugin --profile multica add <bundle>` without
ever saying what <bundle> is — the hole #6936 was filed against.

Document MULTICA_DSH_PROFILE_BUNDLE and MULTICA_DSH_PLUGIN_PATH next to the
other MULTICA_DSH_* variables, and name the bundle in the DSH setup step: what
implements the protocol, where the bridge lives, and that the daemon reports
the missing profile on /health rather than registering a runtime that cannot
start. All four locale files, so the translations do not drift.

* refactor(agent): export the DSH stdio protocol version

The daemon's runtime-profile probe accepts or rejects a profile on this exact
number: one answering `--probe` with a protocol this backend does not drive
must not be registered. That decision was about to be made against a second
copy of the constant in internal/daemon, and a second copy is one that can
drift from the code actually speaking the protocol.

Export it so the probe reads the number from its only honest source. No
behaviour change: the value is still 1.

* fix(redact): mask credentials carried in URL userinfo

The connection-string rule covers postgres, mysql, mongodb, redis and amqp
only, so `https://user:token@registry/...` passed through untouched. That shape
is not hypothetical for agent output: npm and pnpm accept an authenticated
registry URL as a package spec, and both the package manager and the registry
echo the request URL back in their error text, which is how it reaches a log
line without anyone logging the spec itself.

Add a scheme-agnostic userinfo rule. The scheme and host survive — which
registry refused the request is the part an operator reads, and it is not the
secret — and userinfo requires both a colon and an `@` before the next path
separator, so `https://host:8443/p`, `ssh://git@host/p` and a bare `a:b` in a
path are all left alone. Tests cover both directions.

* fix(daemon): decide the DSH runtime-profile verdict on evidence

probeDshMulticaProfile returned a bare bool, so a timeout, a non-zero exit,
unparseable output, a future protocol version and a genuinely absent manifest
all collapsed into "the profile is not installed" — a verdict that demotes a
live runtime and, with a bundle configured, installs over the user's DSH home.
This rebuilds the verdict layer around what was actually observed.

Classification. The probe now returns one of OK / missing / incompatible /
unavailable. The frame decides, not the exit status: a profile that printed a
valid answer has answered, whatever the process did on its way out — which also
stops a process-tree lifecycle error from being read as a protocol failure.
With no usable frame, a cancelled ROUND stays transient (the daemon is shutting
down; that says nothing about the profile) and otherwise the manifest decides.
A manifest that IS present keeps every failure transient, which is what
protects a working install during an upgrade.

Timeouts are not transient by themselves. Asked for a profile it does not have,
DSH does not refuse `--probe` — it hangs, printing nothing, until something
kills it. Measured: still running after 10s, zero bytes on both streams. So a
timeout is the ordinary way a missing profile presents, and treating it as
transient made the profile undetectable on exactly the host the automatic
install exists for. The manifest is the same file DSH's own loadProfile
consults before refusing to boot, so a confirmed-absent one is evidence.

Order. The profile probe now runs only after version detection succeeds.
exec.LookPath is far too weak a proxy for "this CLI works": on Windows the CLI
is a .cmd shim it resolves happily and which exits 9009 — cmd.exe's "command
not found" — when what it forwards to is missing. Probing the profile first
reported such a machine as missing its runtime profile, a repair for a problem
it did not have.

Demotion. An incompatible profile is reported and never demoted: this daemon
can be the stale side of a protocol skew, and tearing down a live runtime
because THIS build is behind is a destructive answer to a version question.
The confirmation window that gated the not-executable verdict now gates every
condemnable verdict, keyed per verdict so a provider moving between states
starts a fresh clock rather than inheriting one earned by another problem.

Convergence. A registered dsh whose profile was removed forces a round on every
tick, because condemning it takes two of them and nothing else schedules the
second: with dsh still registered nothing is missing a runtime, so an unforced
tick returns without probing at all. The mirror direction — a profile with no
runtime — stays throttled to one forced round, since no round is guaranteed to
resolve it and forcing would bypass agentConvergeMaxBackoff forever.

Offline cause. A missing profile reaches the server as a structured
`dsh_profile` code rather than a bare offline, and carries whether the daemon
is installing the profile right now — the one case where queueing is right.
That claim is withdrawn if the install gives up: the runtime row is written
once, by the demotion that also removes the runtime from the index, so nothing
later would correct it and the work would queue forever behind an install that
already stopped.

Provisioning. Runs under the daemon's lifetime through processtree, so the
pnpm/node descendants cannot outlive a shutdown and keep writing into the DSH
home. Success is the manifest on disk, not the package manager's exit status,
and a candidate that exits 0 without producing a profile is a failed candidate
so the next one still gets its turn. The bundle spec no longer reaches a log
line — an npm URL can carry credentials and a path a username — and captured
output is redacted and bounded on a rune boundary. The PATH merge matches the
variable case-insensitively, because Windows spells it `Path` and an exact
`PATH=` miss left the package manager with only the plugin directory under Go's
case-insensitive de-duplication.

Startup. A daemon that registered nothing continues when it has just begun
installing the profile itself. On a host whose only provider is a dsh without
one, failing here is a deadlock rather than a fail-fast: the probe starts the
install, the error kills the process milliseconds later, the install's process
tree dies with it, and the next start repeats all of it. Nothing else is
forgiven. Because such a daemon tracks no workspace, a finished install picks
the workspace up before converging.

Repair. The reported repair names the missing package and carries no command:
the install needs a bundle only the operator can choose, and Repair.Command is
rendered to the user inside a shell fence as the line to run, so a placeholder
there is a paste-and-fail instruction.

Tests. The classification matrix, "manifest present + timeout / non-zero exit /
malformed output / future protocol ⇒ no demotion, no provisioning", the 9009
shim, the forced-round sequence, the withdrawal, the startup exception, the
empty install, and the case-insensitive PATH merge. Two existing tests read the
developer's real ~/.dsh and one fake dsh could not answer `--version` at all —
both now pinned to the test's own directory and to the shape the feature is
actually about.

* feat(daemon): discover the CLI shims DSH Desktop generates

The macOS fallback pointed at one path inside the app bundle, and Windows had
none at all — every candidate there was a /Applications path that cannot exist,
so a Windows host running DSH Desktop reported no dsh whatsoever. Replace it
with one layout that serves both platforms.

The CLI is not in the install directory. DSH Desktop generates shims under its
own per-user data directory — ~/Library/Application Support/DSH Desktop on
macOS, %APPDATA%\DSH Desktop on Windows — and on Windows that is roaming
application data even though the app installs to Program Files or
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs. One lookup therefore covers both install modes, since
a per-machine install still generates these shims per user.

Payload directories are content hashes (and, under host-commands, a hash plus a
generation uuid), so they are enumerated rather than composed. Only directories
holding a bin/ are accepted, so a stray file or half-extracted download is
skipped; modification time orders them so an upgrade's new payload wins over an
abandoned one, and the name breaks ties because ReadDir order is not a promise
and the daemon must not pick a different CLI on different rounds.

host-commands outranks cli, and that is load-bearing: nothing here executes a
candidate, so a broken-but-present shim is indistinguishable from a working one
at this layer — and on the install that prompted this, the cli shim was exactly
that, resolvable by exec.LookPath and exiting 9009. Ranking is the only lever.

Generated shims also outrank the macOS app-bundle script, which is entered
through `#!/usr/bin/env node` and so only works where node happens to be
installed; a shim runs the Desktop app's own runtime by absolute path and needs
nothing on PATH. That gap was latent on macOS too.

executableCandidate had to learn the platform difference for any of this to
work: Go synthesizes a regular file's mode from the read-only attribute and
never sets an executable bit on Windows, so the Unix test rejected every
candidate and the whole fallback would have been dead code there. Windows uses
exec.LookPath, the same check the launcher makes, so a candidate accepted here
is one that can actually start — which is also why the Node script has no
Windows counterpart and .js never appears in that list.

Only default locations are covered, and nothing reads an install receipt or the
registry, so a relocated install still needs MULTICA_DSH_PATH.

The path builders take goos/env/home as arguments rather than reading
runtime.GOOS and os.Getenv, so the Windows layout is asserted from any host —
the alternative leaves it testable only on Windows, which in this package has
meant untested.

* fix(server): refuse a missing DSH runtime profile under its own reason

A runtime taken offline for a missing profile reached the server as a bare
offline, so runtimeVerdict classified it as waitable/runtime_offline and
assignments and @mentions bound to that agent queued forever — even though,
with no automatic install configured, that wait never resolves on its own.
That contradicts the semantics settled in MUL-6164: when a human has to
intervene, refuse the trigger and say how to fix it.

Blocked, but not as runtime_unusable. The two causes have opposite repairs: an
unrunnable CLI is reinstalled, while a CLI missing its runtime profile is
working perfectly and reinstalling it changes nothing. Sharing one code meant
every client told DSH users to reinstall a CLI that was never the problem — the
chip and toast said "reinstall it there", and the durable system comment left
on the issue opened with "its CLI is installed but cannot be executed on that
machine", blamed a blocked npm postinstall, and rendered `dsh plugin --profile
multica add <bundle>` inside a bash fence as the line to run on that machine. A
placeholder presented as a command is the shape of instruction people paste
verbatim and then report as broken.

So: a new runtime_profile_missing reason code, carried through readiness,
dispatch and the localized copy in all four languages. The notice branches on
the reason rather than on whether a repair command happened to be present, and
the profile text names what is missing, says the CLI is fine, and points at the
two ways to supply a real bundle without printing a command to copy.

An install the daemon is running right now is the exception: that wait does end
by itself, so the work queues instead of being refused.

RuntimeBlockedNeedsNotice replaces three inline comparisons, because a code
added to one admission path and not the others is a trigger that vanishes with
no trace on exactly the surfaces that have no response for the user to read.

* docs(runtime): document DSH profile provisioning and shim discovery

Automatic provisioning is a new, persistent feature surface, and it had no
product surface: an admin had no documented way to configure it, and the one
paragraph that existed attached the install semantics to the wrong variable —
the sentences describing what MULTICA_DSH_PROFILE_BUNDLE does followed the
MULTICA_DSH_PLUGIN_PATH sentence, so "the variable is unset by default and the
install it enables is bounded" read as being about a variable that enables no
install, and PLUGIN_PATH was then described twice.

Environment variables, in all four languages: the install semantics move onto
the variable they belong to, and now state the bounds — at most once per daemon
lifetime, only on a confirmed-absent profile, failures logged with the package
manager's own output and retried only after a restart, a timeout or an
unsupported protocol version reported and never installed over. Plus how to
diagnose (search the daemon log for `DSH runtime profile`) and how to roll back
(delete $DSH_HOME/profiles/multica). MULTICA_DSH_PLUGIN_PATH is described once,
and Windows and Linux are named as the platforms with no bundled pnpm
directory, where the daemon uses whatever is on PATH unless this points at one.

Install guide, in all four languages: what to actually put in the variable.
Multica's bridge is not on a public npm registry yet (multica#6936), so a
self-hosted team builds it from the repository and points at the build
directory, or at the tarball npm pack produces when the daemon host is not the
build host; a package name becomes the simplest option once it is published.
With a warning that belongs on this value specifically — it is installed into
every daemon host's DSH home without further confirmation, so an unvetted
third-party package is a supply-chain decision, not a convenience.

Also documents where the daemon looks for a Desktop-managed CLI, including the
detail that trips people on Windows: it is roaming application data, not the
install directory. And the one exception to "the daemon must detect at least
one built-in CLI before it will start" — a daemon that has just begun installing
the profile itself starts with no runtimes, because otherwise a host whose only
tool is a DSH needing that profile could never finish the install.

* fix(daemon): find DSH Desktop's bundled pnpm on Windows too

The automatic install shells out to `dsh plugin`, which forwards to pnpm, and
the daemon inherits no path to the one DSH Desktop ships. The lookup composed a
single macOS path and was commented as macOS-only, so on Windows the install
failed with "pnpm not found on PATH" unless the operator set
MULTICA_DSH_PLUGIN_PATH by hand — on exactly the hosts the automatic install
exists for.

Both platforms bundle it under runtime-commands in the app's own per-user data
directory, but not in the same shape: macOS 2.0.5 keeps a flat
runtime-commands/bin, while a Windows install keeps
runtime-commands/generations/<id>/bin. Composing either path leaves the other
broken, so the lookup now shares the enumerator with CLI-shim discovery and
searches both shapes at both levels. A Desktop version that moves between them
is then a version this daemon keeps working with rather than one it silently
stops supporting.

Sorting is pooled per tier rather than per directory. Doing it per directory
made the answer depend on the order ReadDir returned DSH profile names, which
is the same non-determinism the name tie-break exists to remove: the newest
generation has to win even when it belongs to a profile that sorts later. An
existing test caught this while the enumerator was being extracted.

An explicit MULTICA_DSH_PLUGIN_PATH now replaces the search instead of merely
being tried first. An operator who pinned a directory is bypassing the bundled
pnpm on purpose, and quietly falling back to it would defeat that.

Documented in all four languages, where the previous text stated the opposite —
that Windows has no bundled directory.

* fix(server): bound the in-flight DSH install claim instead of trusting it

`installing` tells the server to queue triggers rather than refuse them, so a
claim that outlives its install recreates exactly the failure the structured
reason was added to prevent: work queued behind something that already stopped.

The withdraw cannot be made to guarantee that. Three paths leave the claim on
the row. The verdict reads dshInstallInFlight when it is built, but the wait is
recorded later, when the demotion knows the runtime ids — an install that fails
in between finds an empty list, and the `installing` written afterwards is never
withdrawn. The corrective Deregister is best-effort, and during shutdown it runs
on an already-cancelled lifecycle context. And a daemon restarted mid-install
does not track the row at all.

Bound the claim instead. SetAgentRuntimeOfflineWithReason stamps updated_at, and
the install it describes is itself bounded by the daemon's provisioning timeout,
so honouring `installing` only inside a window comfortably longer than that
covers a real install while capping every way the claim can be left behind. A
row with no usable timestamp cannot be bounded and is not honoured: refusing
during a real install costs one retry the notice already asks for, while
honouring a stale claim costs work that queues until it expires.

The withdraw stays as the fast path — this is the floor under it.

* refactor(daemon): scrub URL credentials in provisioning output, not globally

The rule was added to pkg/redact's shared pattern list, where redact.Text runs
over every agent's task messages, comments and error text — so a fix aimed at
one package manager's output changed what every provider emits. The gap is real
and still worth closing in that list, but widening a shared filter is its own
change with its own blast radius, and it does not belong in a PR about DSH.

Move it to dshProvisionOutput, which is the only place this PR needs it: a
bundle spec can be an authenticated npm URL, and both the package manager and
the registry echo the request URL back in their error text. The shared redactor
still runs after it for the token shapes it already knows.

Behaviour for the provisioning log line is unchanged; behaviour for every other
provider returns to main's. Same assertions as before, moved next to the code
they now cover, plus the false-positive cases — a port, an scp-style git remote,
a bare colon in a path — and one asserting the host survives, since which
registry refused the request is what an operator reads and is not the secret.

* fix(daemon): let a converge round condemn dsh only

convergeRuntimeRegistrations started consuming the verdict map it used to
discard, so that a round forced by a DSH profile mismatch could reach demotion —
a registered dsh whose profile was removed leaves nothing missing a runtime, so
the round has no registration left to do and would otherwise return having done
nothing.

But it acted on every provider's verdict, not just dsh. On main, demotion is
reached from refreshAgentVersions alone, on its own ten-minute cadence, and that
is the schedule every provider's verdict was tuned against. Claude Code, Codex
and the rest would have moved onto a different one as a side effect of a DSH
fix — a behaviour change for providers this PR has no reason to touch.

Narrow it to dsh. It is the only built-in with a precondition that can change
without any version changing, which is why it is the only one that needs a round
it can be forced into; every other provider keeps main's behaviour exactly.
