dsh-retention-settlement-proof
Offline, body-free evidence that a recorded DeepSeek Harness retention/deletion request settled across required storage projections and stayed absent after restart.
This plugin does not delete anything. DSH session persistence currently has no general delete/retention API, while community archive/delete plugins implement different mutation strategies. This proof layer consumes explicit, pre-recorded receipts from those implementations or test harnesses. It is complementary to dsh-recovery-proof (restore drills), dsh-decision-effect-proof (authorization/effect reconciliation), and deletion UIs: it answers only whether one opaque subject remained absent across declared surfaces and restart epochs.
Evidence contract
Schema version 1 binds:
- a SHA-256 pseudonymous subject (never a raw session ID);
- a deletion request with an opaque approval-receipt hash;
- a tombstone bound to the exact request bytes;
- body-free absence observations for explicit surfaces such as
persistence-list, session-index, and workspace-index;
- fixed evaluation time, freshness limit, required surfaces, and minimum complete post-restart epochs.
Any later present: true, stale receipt, missing surface, pre-restart-only evidence, identity mismatch, digest mismatch, unsafe path, or incomplete threshold fails closed. The report contains hashes and verdicts only—not session text, receipt bodies, filesystem paths, credentials, or secrets.
CLI
dsh-retention-settlement-proof inspect --workspace . --manifest proof.json
dsh-retention-settlement-proof verify --workspace . --manifest proof.json --artifactDir artifacts
Verification reads only workspace-relative regular files, rejects symlinks and traversal, performs no network requests or subprocesses, and writes only one content-addressed JSON report beneath the explicit artifact directory with exclusive creation and read-back verification. Exit code 0 means verified-absent, 2 means a policy rejection, and 1 means invalid/unsafe input.
DSH and MCP
The DSH bundle exposes dsh_retention_settlement_inspect and dsh_retention_settlement_verify. The independent stdio MCP server exposes proof-only inline equivalents and never accesses the filesystem. Both call the same interface-free core.
