LIMITATIONS

已知限制

* **Read-Only Boundaries:** "Read-only" here means **no system side effects** (like writing files or executing commands). However, `web_fetch` / `web_search` still have network access, and `read` can read files within the process's permissions. The allowlist is hardcoded and cannot be relaxed via settings. * **What the Branch Can See:** Every follow-up rebuilds it from the main session's **latest settled turns**, so turns the main session has finished do follow along automatically. A turn the main session **has not finished yet** is not visible to the branch (the cut is the last `turn/end`) — but **manual selection quoting is not affected by that**: the limitation is on "seeing it automatically", not on "being able to quote it". * **Rebuilds Leave Session Records:** Each rebuild creates a new side-session record, and the platform has **no API to delete a session** ⇒ records would pile up. They are reclaimed by an **orphan sweep at plugin startup**, which logs item by item what it deleted. While **two instances share the same `DSH_HOME`** and run at the same time, that sweep **skips entirely** — a second DSH never has its live branches deleted. * **The Context Ceiling Is a Refusal:** On reaching it the plugin **refuses** the turn and tells you to "Clear"; the oldest turns are never silently dropped. `contextFull.used` is an **estimate** (a rebuilt session has no usage yet), so it will not match the real usage once a turn settles. * **Cache Hits Are Measured, Not Guaranteed:** The high prefix-cache hit rate is a measurement, not a design promise — the platform may replace the system node in place on the side session's first step, invalidating the cache **from token 0 on**. And **hitting the cache does not mean those tokens stop occupying the context window**. * **PTC Mode Exception:** If the main session uses the `ptc` preset (pure code execution tool surface), since `run_code` is permanently rejected by this plugin, the branch will fall back to a **pure text Q&A mode** (no tools can be called).
