Introduction
dsh-token-tracker
简体中文 · Read this page in English
A dsh (DeepSeek-Harness) web plugin that folds provider token usage from the
durable session log, prices it with a peak/off-peak table, and surfaces totals in
the dsh web GUI — a header badge + period tag, a Tracker button, a composer dock
line, a closed-turn tail, an injected conversation.view Token tab — plus a
standalone overview page and a JSON API.
This repository is itself a directly installable dsh plugin package: lib/
is prebuilt and committed, and the repo root ships the dsh.bundle +
dsh.client manifests together with cordis.patch.yml. You can install it via
dsh plugin add <git-url>, dsh plugin add <local-path>, or (as a fallback)
dsh plugin add ./dsh-token-tracker-<version>.tgz. No manual pack step or
separate tarball download required.
This is not the in-repo
@deepseek-ai/dsh-token-trackerpackage (which lives inside the harness monorepo and is built by the workspace). It is the samesrc/, wrapped for independent distribution.

What it does
The package has a Host half and a Browser half.
Host half (TokenTrackerService, mounted as a webServer service consumer):
- Listens to
session/eventand foldsassistant/messageproviderusageinto per-session/per-turn token buckets, attributing each message to the model named by the latestrequest/headerand to the Beijing hour of its event time. - Serves the standalone overview page at
GET /dsh-token-trackerand the JSON API atGET /dsh-token-tracker/api(?session=<id>returns one session's totals plus a per-turn breakdown). - Prices usage with a peak/off-peak cost table (CNY per 1M tokens). The table
resolves, in order: a browser localStorage override, a
token-pricing.jsonfile in the workspace root or a session cwd, then the built-in default (seesrc/pricing.ts). Overrides are picked up on a short cache.
Browser half (src/client/): registers the header token badge + period tag,
the Tracker button, the composer dock line, the closed-turn tail, and the
conversation.view "Token" tab. All data is fetched from the Host JSON API, so
no typert Remote surface has to ride the browser assembly bus.
Requirements
- Node.js >= 20 and pnpm (only needed when you want to rebuild from
source; installing the plugin does not require them). The plugin itself runs
inside a harness
dshhost. - The dsh harness (DeepSeek-Harness) at the version that matches this
package's peer dependencies. This plugin is a peer of the
@deepseek-ai/dsh-*runtime packages and does not bring them itself.
Installing the plugin (two-step)
Important. This plugin declares the
@deepseek-ai/dsh-*harness packages as peer dependencies, notdependencies. It deliberately does not pull them from the npm registry. This makes the install order matter: harness first, then the plugin.
Step 1 — install the harness first
dsh needs a harness installation to satisfy the peers. Clone and install DeepSeek-Harness first:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness.git
cd deepseek-harness
pnpm install # installs the full @deepseek-ai/dsh-* tree locally
Step 2 — install the plugin (choose one of three)
This repository exposes three equivalent install paths. Use whichever fits your environment.
Option A · Direct from a GitHub repo URL (recommended)
On any machine that already has the harness installed:
dsh plugin --profile web add https://github.com/XiaHouSheng/dsh-token-tracker.git
How it works: after pnpm clones the repo it automatically runs the repo's
prepack hook, which injects the exact @deepseek-ai/* peer version ranges
into the packed manifest, then packs the already-built lib/ +
cordis.patch.yml into a tarball and installs it. No build step required on
your side.
Option B · From a local directory (plugin dev / on-machine verification)
Run pnpm run build in this repo once first (see Development & build flow
below), then:
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-token-tracker
pnpm run build drops a complete lib/, the cordis.patch.yml layer patch,
and a publish-shaped package.json with the exact harness peer ranges straight
into the repo root. The directory is then a self-contained installable dsh
plugin package.
Option C · GitHub Release tarball (offline / legacy)
Download dsh-token-tracker-<version>.tgz from the Releases page,
then add it to a dsh profile:
dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-token-tracker-<version>.tgz
All three options produce the same result: a bundle layer is activated
(dsh.bundle → cordis.patch.yml) so the token-tracker row is inserted, and
the browser half is auto-discovered via the same package's dsh.client
manifest and served from the web app.
Verify the layer then boot
dsh --profile web --dump-config # should list the token-tracker layer
dsh --profile web # boot the GUI + web server
Then open:
http://127.0.0.1:<port>/dsh-token-tracker— overview pagehttp://127.0.0.1:<port>/dsh-token-tracker/api— JSON- the web GUI header badge / Token tab
If
dshis not on yourPATH, use the harness-local binary:./node_modules/.bin/dsh ...from the harness checkout.
Installing from npm (optional, later)
If/when this package is published to npm under a personal scope, the same
peer-rule applies. Point dsh plugin add at the package instead of a tarball:
# scope-rename the package first (see RELEASING.md), then:
dsh plugin --profile web add @your-scope/dsh-token-tracker
Pricing override
Drop a token-pricing.json in the workspace root or a session cwd. It is
picked up on a short cache:
{
"timezone": "Asia/Shanghai (UTC+8)",
"peakHours": [{ "start": 9, "end": 12 }, { "start": 14, "end": 18 }],
"models": {
"my-model": [{
"effectiveFrom": "2026-01-01T00:00:00+08:00",
"prices": {
"inputCached": { "offpeak": 0.05, "peak": 0.1 },
"inputUncached": { "offpeak": 1.5, "peak": 3.0 },
"output": { "offpeak": 4.5, "peak": 9.0 }
}
}]
}
}
The built-in default prices 09–12 and 14–18 Beijing hours as peak (2×
off-peak) for deepseek-v4-flash and deepseek-v4-pro.
Development & build flow
This section is for plugin authors / maintainers. If you only install and use the plugin, you can skip it.
Dev manifest vs. Publish manifest
The root package.json intentionally toggles between two shapes:
| Form | Active when | @deepseek-ai/* in peerDependencies | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dev | Fresh git clone / after restore-dev | only react | Lets pnpm install succeed at the plugin dev repo: the harness ^0.1.0-rc.5 versions are not on the public npm registry, so they must be omitted from the dev-time lockfile. |
| Publish | After build / pack, or during the prepack hook | all 10 harness packages with exact ranges | Required for a git push or a local install: dsh's pnpm layout needs them declared as explicit peers so the plugin sandbox can require('@deepseek-ai/cordis') etc. at runtime. |
Two helper scripts manage the swap:
pnpm run build # build lib/, switch root manifest to Publish shape (commit / local-dir install)
pnpm run restore-dev # revert to Dev shape (use before pnpm install / version bumps / adding devDeps)
Plain git checkout -- package.json does the same thing if you prefer.
Everyday build loop
# Only needed if package.json is currently in Publish form:
pnpm run restore-dev
pnpm install # only build tooling (tsc, tsdown, react types, node types)
# …edit files under src/…
pnpm run build # -> lib/ populated, cordis.patch.yml copied to root, manifest becomes Publish
# Then you can:
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-token-tracker # local install for verification
# And/or commit & push:
git add lib cordis.patch.yml package.json src scripts pack.mjs
git commit -m "feat: …"
git push origin main # After this push, anyone else can run:
# dsh plugin --profile web add https://github.com/XiaHouSheng/dsh-token-tracker.git
Packing a tarball (GitHub Release / offline distribution)
pnpm run pack # = node pack.mjs: same as build, plus `pnpm pack` inside the stage
# -> dsh-token-tracker-0.1.0.tgz appears at the repo root
pack.mjs is fully self-contained:
- It stages
standalone/fromsrc/+publish/. - Type declarations are generated straight from
src/bytscwith the repo-localtsconfig.json(self-contained;@deepseek-ai/*resolves to the ambient stubs undertypes.stub/, so no peer package is pulled at build time). - Host + browser bundles are produced by
tsdownfrom the self-containedpublish/tsdown.config.ts(which includes TypeScript decorator lowering so the@Remotemarkers run). - Build artifacts are synced back to the root
lib/for "direct install" usage; the stage is also packed withpnpm packto produce the.tgz.
No harness checkout or in-repo lib/ is required or read.
Local verification after a build
Inside a fresh harness checkout (with Step 1 pnpm install already done):
# Direct local directory:
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-token-tracker
# Or the tarball:
dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-token-tracker-0.1.0.tgz
dsh --profile web --dump-config # token-tracker layer present
dsh --profile web # boot; then check:
# /dsh-token-tracker (overview page)
# /dsh-token-tracker/api (JSON)
Known Limitations and Deferred Work
- Token accounting depends on the provider reporting
usageonassistant/messageevents; without it the plugin falls back to a character-count estimate (marked≈), which is not a billing-grade count. - Peak/off-peak pricing is timezone-anchored to Beijing time and the pricing cache has a short TTL, so a pricing-file edit takes a few seconds to appear.
- Peer versions in the Publish form are bracketed ranges (
^0.1.0-rc.5). They are satisfied by a matching harness install; keep them in step with the deployed harness edition, ordsh plugin addwill warn about unsatisfied peers. - The overview page auto-refreshes on a slow 10-minute interval (and pauses while the tab is hidden); very large session logs are capped at the first 300 sessions in the table.
