DSH Council

Independent answers. Anonymous reviews. One reasoned decision.

Multi-model deliberation inside DeepSeek Harness.

How it works

01 · Answer

2–8 models respond independently in parallel.

02 · Review

1–8 reviewers compare anonymous answers, identify gaps, and rank them.

03 · Decide

One arbiter weighs the answers and reviews to produce a final recommendation.

Your models. Use configured DSH providers and credentials. Choose models separately for each role, with reuse across roles. English and Chinese follow DSH's language setting.

Inspectable results. Confidence notes, consensus, disagreements, blind spots, model identities, and average rankings. Original answers and reviews remain in DSH's child sessions.

Installation

Node.js	pnpm	DeepSeek Harness
`^22.19.0 \|\| >=24.0.0`	`11.7.0`	At least two configured, authenticated models

Install from source

Usage

Enter this command in a DSH Web conversation:

/council

Choose your panel

Select answerers, reviewers, and an arbiter. Selections apply to one run.

Ask your question

Each participant starts with fresh context. Include the information it needs in your question.

Example question

Compare PostgreSQL leasing with a managed message queue for three workers. Explain how each recovers when a worker crashes after an external side effect but before acknowledging the job. Recommend one design and state its assumptions.

Cost

4–17 model participants per run. Each may make multiple requests and use Web tools.

Privacy

Your question and intermediate answers go to selected providers. See Security.

Accuracy

Model agreement does not guarantee correctness. Review the evidence and confidence notes.

Configuration

Defaults and overrides

The defaults work without additional configuration. To adjust limits, set config on the dsh-council entry in your DSH profile:

- id: dsh-council
  config:
    answerMaxTokens: 16384
    reviewMaxTokens: 16384
    arbiterMaxTokens: 16384
    childTimeoutMs: 300000
    runTimeoutMs: 900000
    subagentProvider: spawn

Token limits apply per model request. Timeouts are in milliseconds; runTimeoutMs must be at least childTimeoutMs.
