`client.py` imported the private `_build_middlewares` from `agent.py` across a
module boundary and called it as public API. Because the `_` name signals
"module-private, no external callers", any future rename or signature change
silently breaks the embedded `DeerFlowClient` path — and the test suite even
monkeypatched `deerflow.client._build_middlewares`, baking the leak in.
`DeerFlowClient` is a lead-agent variant that genuinely needs the lead agent's
full middleware composition, so make the dependency honest: promote the helper
to a documented public entry point `build_middlewares` and update every in-repo
caller. Found during #3341 review; #3341 already removed one such leak
(`_assemble_deferred` -> public `assemble_deferred_tools`) and left this one out
of scope on purpose.
- agent.py: rename def + both internal call sites; expand the docstring into a
public-entry-point contract and document the previously-undocumented
model_name / app_config / deferred_setup params
- client.py: import + call site now use the public name (removes the last
cross-module private import)
- scripts/tool-error-degradation-detection.sh: update its import + call site
- tests (5 files): update monkeypatch/patch targets and direct calls
- docs (backend/CLAUDE.md, plan_mode_usage.md, middlewares.mdx): sync the live
references that describe the symbol as current API
Pure mechanical rename, no behavior change. Historical design docs (rfc,
superpowers spec) intentionally keep the old name as point-in-time records.
Closes#3431
* refactor: extract shared utils to break harness→app cross-layer imports
Move _validate_skill_frontmatter to src/skills/validation.py and
CONVERTIBLE_EXTENSIONS + convert_file_to_markdown to src/utils/file_conversion.py.
This eliminates the two reverse dependencies from client.py (harness layer)
into gateway/routers/ (app layer), preparing for the harness/app package split.

* refactor: split backend/src into harness (deerflow.*) and app (app.*)
Physically split the monolithic backend/src/ package into two layers:
- **Harness** (`packages/harness/deerflow/`): publishable agent framework
package with import prefix `deerflow.*`. Contains agents, sandbox, tools,
models, MCP, skills, config, and all core infrastructure.
- **App** (`app/`): unpublished application code with import prefix `app.*`.
Contains gateway (FastAPI REST API) and channels (IM integrations).
Key changes:
- Move 13 harness modules to packages/harness/deerflow/ via git mv
- Move gateway + channels to app/ via git mv
- Rename all imports: src.* → deerflow.* (harness) / app.* (app layer)
- Set up uv workspace with deerflow-harness as workspace member
- Update langgraph.json, config.example.yaml, all scripts, Docker files
- Add build-system (hatchling) to harness pyproject.toml
- Add PYTHONPATH=. to gateway startup commands for app.* resolution
- Update ruff.toml with known-first-party for import sorting
- Update all documentation to reflect new directory structure
Boundary rule enforced: harness code never imports from app.
All 429 tests pass. Lint clean.

* chore: add harness→app boundary check test and update docs
Add test_harness_boundary.py that scans all Python files in
packages/harness/deerflow/ and fails if any `from app.*` or
`import app.*` statement is found. This enforces the architectural
rule that the harness layer never depends on the app layer.
Update CLAUDE.md to document the harness/app split architecture,
import conventions, and the boundary enforcement test.

* feat: add config versioning with auto-upgrade on startup
When config.example.yaml schema changes, developers' local config.yaml
files can silently become outdated. This adds a config_version field and
auto-upgrade mechanism so breaking changes (like src.* → deerflow.*
renames) are applied automatically before services start.
- Add config_version: 1 to config.example.yaml
- Add startup version check warning in AppConfig.from_file()
- Add scripts/config-upgrade.sh with migration registry for value replacements
- Add `make config-upgrade` target
- Auto-run config-upgrade in serve.sh and start-daemon.sh before starting services
- Add config error hints in service failure messages

* fix comments
* fix: update src.* import in test_sandbox_tools_security to deerflow.*

* fix: handle empty config and search parent dirs for config.example.yaml
Address Copilot review comments on PR #1131:
- Guard against yaml.safe_load() returning None for empty config files
- Search parent directories for config.example.yaml instead of only
looking next to config.yaml, fixing detection in common setups

* fix: correct skills root path depth and config_version type coercion
- loader.py: fix get_skills_root_path() to use 5 parent levels (was 3)
after harness split, file lives at packages/harness/deerflow/skills/
so parent×3 resolved to backend/packages/harness/ instead of backend/
- app_config.py: coerce config_version to int() before comparison in
_check_config_version() to prevent TypeError when YAML stores value
as string (e.g. config_version: "1")
- tests: add regression tests for both fixes
