perseus-vault-dsh

Perseus Vault integration for DeepSeek Harness (dsh) — the open-source agent harness where everything is a plugin.

Two ways to connect the vault to a dsh agent:

Mode	What it gives you	File
MCP config row (recommended start)	The vault's agent-safe tool surface as mcp__perseus_vault__* tools: remember, recall, recall_when, semantic_search, context, capture, journal, state, links, timelines — 48 tools, zero code	examples/dsh-mcp/perseus-vault.cordis.yml
Native plugin	Automatic pre-step memory injection: relevant memories are pushed into the system prompt before every user turn (no "remember to call recall" needed)	packages/perseus-vault

Both can be mounted together — the plugin handles injection, the MCP row gives the agent explicit memory tools.

Quickstart (one command)

# 1. Install the Perseus Vault binary (pinned release)
cargo install perseus-vault@2.23.0   # or grab a release binary / Docker image

# 2. Add the bundle to a dsh profile — both the memory-injection plugin and
#    the MCP tool row are wired automatically (no hand-written config)
dsh plugin add -w @perseus-computing/dsh

(-w is required: a dsh profile is a pnpm workspace root, so pnpm's add-to-root guard must be waived explicitly.)

The agent now gets automatic pre-step memory injection plus the mcp__perseus_vault__recall / remember / capture tool surface. Adjust command (vault binary path) and other options in the web UI under Settings → Plugins → Perseus Vault, or with a --patch overlay that replaces the bundle rows.

Prefer explicit config instead of the bundle? See examples/dsh-mcp/perseus-vault.cordis.yml.

See examples/dsh-mcp/README.md and packages/perseus-vault/README.md for details.

What is Perseus Vault?

A persistent, encrypted, tamper-evident memory engine for AI agents (MIT). Durable facts with decay, bitemporal history, contradiction detection, workspace scoping, and an audit journal — one brain across projects and clients. Perseus-Computing-LLC/perseus-vault
