Status: ALPHA · bounded conformance proof · no production-readiness claim

AgentFuse is a fail-closed pre-dispatch policy boundary for AI agent tools, ported from the DHMS AgentFuse Python project to a DeepSeek Harness (DSH) guard plugin.

This package is a thin DSH adapter over the framework-agnostic engine @dhms-agentfuse/core: the decision vocabulary, deterministic policy resolution, hashing, and evidence assembly all live in the core. This package owns only the DSH config schema, the tools/pre-execute gate, and the durable agentfuse/decision session event.

In the tested integrated DSH path, model-directed tool calls reach the tools/pre-execute waterfall. AgentFuse evaluates them against a deterministic denylist → asklist → allowlist → default policy, fails closed on block, defers asklisted tools to the DSH human-approval chain, and appends a durable agentfuse/decision session event for blocked calls carrying the canonical evidence — reason code, policy id, and a canonical arguments hash, never raw arguments.

What it is / is not

AgentFuse owns only its deterministic allow | block decision and bounded decision evidence. The adapter can return DSH's host-owned ask deferral; it does not own approval or make ask a third canonical AgentFuse decision. It is not a process sandbox, malware detector, intrinsic danger classifier, or universal interceptor. Risk classification, approval, dispatch, and physical execution remain the integrating runtime's responsibility — the same boundary the Python dhms_agentfuse documents.

Config

# cordis.yml (or a cordis.patch.yml insert)
- id: agentfuse
  name: '@dhms-agentfuse/dsh-agentfuse'
  config:
    defaultAction: block      # 'allow' | 'block' — fall-through for unlisted names
    denyTools: []             # always wins
    askTools: []              # defer to the DSH human-approval chain
    allowTools: []            # non-empty = only these names may run
    logDecisions: false       # durable evidence; needs in-repo catalog (see note below)

Policy resolution order (fixed, deterministic):

1. denyTools match → block (explicit_denylist)
2. askTools match → ask (requires_approval)
3. configured allowTools without the name → block (not_allowlisted)
4. configured allowTools containing the name → allow (allowed)
5. defaultAction → allow/block (allowed / policy_denied)

Approval integration

An askTools match returns { kind: 'ask' } from the tools/pre-execute waterfall. The DSH tool registry routes it through the approval service (@deepseek-ai/dsh-user-approval), which prompts the composed answerers (the Web GUI approval card, CLI answerers, …) and records the approval/asked + approval/decided audit pair on the session log.

Outcomes:

• allowed-once — the tool runs;
• rejected / cancelled / unavailable — the tool is denied, and the model sees a distinct reason for each (a human "no" reads differently from a missing approval channel);
• no approval service composed, no answerer, or a never approval policy — every ask fails closed to deny.

AgentFuse emits no agentfuse/decision evidence for asks: a deferral is not a final decision, and the approval layer already records the complete ask/decide chain, so the two audits never overlap.

Regression locking with dsh-policy-test

The production policy is also a CI artifact. The dsh-policy-test evaluator adapter compiles the same PolicyConfig through @dhms-agentfuse/core and runs a fixture table against it — so configuration drift (a dropped allowlist, a flipped default) turns red in CI instead of silently becoming an unexpected ALLOW in production. See the joint example.

Cross-adapter conformance

The v3.6.2 conformance test consumes an exact snapshot of the canonical, provider-neutral fixture vocabulary from MkaliezZ/dhms-engine. Provenance is recorded in conformance/cross_adapter_v3_6_2/provenance.json, including source commit 3ed2ccd0aadfcc61ad48ac5a49a54632f7911a91 and fixture SHA-256 1f66c9e20ff28ebeeae128b8aaf38a5b251582496a753acded9530b819056d7b.

The tests overlay this package and @dhms-agentfuse/core onto DeepSeek Harness commit 99f6f02fecdb7dff40c3fbc9470f5907c29f74ca (0.1.0-rc.7) and exercise the real Context, SystemPrompt, ToolRuntime, tools/pre-execute, tools/execute, and tools/result path. The deterministic result is 11 PASS, 0 FAIL, and 3 N/A across 14 canonical cases.

The N/A cases are bounded:

• policy callback exception and invalid callback output: the current DSH core exposes static configuration, not a custom policy callback surface;
• sync/async parity: DSH ToolRuntime exposes one asynchronous execution path, not separate sync and async APIs.

DSH ask remains a host approval deferral and does not appear in the canonical allow | block fixtures. Host isError materialization for a denied call also does not rewrite the earlier policy fact: it remains block/not-executed, not an executed handler failure. These tests prove only the pinned integrated path; they do not prove universal DSH interception, global exactly-once execution, or official DeepSeek certification.

Install

As a bundle

The package declares itself as a DSH bundle (dsh.bundle.patch → cordis.patch.yml). Reference it from a profile bundle list or apply the patch row directly; see the DSH profiles and bundles architecture.

Into the DSH repo (PR path)

This package is structured to drop into the DeepSeek Harness monorepo at packages/guard/agentfuse/ unchanged, with the core vendored at vendor/agentfuse-core/ (the vendor/* workspace glob links it automatically, so the @dhms-agentfuse/core dependency resolves as-is). That is the supported build path: DSH packages are not published to npm, so the workspace:^ dependencies resolve only inside the monorepo.

Durable event catalog: the agentfuse/decision session event is a new SessionEventMap member. DSH's persistence read path refuses unknown event types unless they are registered in the generated KNOWN_SESSION_EVENT_TYPES catalog. After the package lands in-repo, run pnpm run gen-persistence-catalog so the event is recognized. Until then the gate still blocks correctly; only the durable decision event is not reconstructable on reload. For this reason logDecisions defaults to false — leave it off for standalone installs and enable it only after the package lands in-repo and the catalog is regenerated.

API

The complete core vocabulary (evaluate, resolvePolicy, buildDecision, compileRules, argumentsHash, policyHash, and all decision/evidence types) is re-exported from @dhms-agentfuse/core — see its README. This package adds only:

• apply(ctx, config) — the Cordis plugin entry: installs the pre-execute gate.
• Config / Config schema — the core policy config plus logDecisions.
• agentfuse/decision — the durable session event type.

Relationship to DHMS

This is a faithful port of the DHMS AgentFuse decision engine and agentfuse-evidence-schema-v0.1 from MkaliezZ/dhms-engine. Decision and execution remain separate lifecycle facts; a blocked call is recorded as a completed policy decision with non-execution evidence, not as a failed tool execution.
