Introduction

@open-agfs/dsh-agfs

English | 中文

File browser main view

A file-browser web app for DeepSeek Harness — a React frontend and REST API served by the host webserver, plus a /dsh-agfs command and browse_files/read_file model tools. It rides the composing dsh web server: no separate port, no subprocess.

  • 面包屑导航 — clickable breadcrumbs navigate every level of the current path back to the root.
  • 视图切换 — list and card (grid) views, one click apart.
  • 三种显示尺寸 — a toolbar button (showing the current mode) cycles 视图大小 (windowed panel, the default) → 整个视图 (fills the viewport) → 全屏 (browser fullscreen).
  • 侧边栏 — project directory, quick access (Desktop/Downloads/Documents…), custom roots, and drives.
  • 搜索 — toolbar search with optional recursive mode (200-hit cap).
  • 本地打开 — in local mode, a floating button in the bottom-right opens the system file manager at the current directory.
  • 一键AI分析 — right-click a file/folder → enter a requirement → dsh creates a workspace for that directory and wakes a fresh session whose agent analyzes it (local mode only). The analysis session uses the host's default model and joins the same agent preset as a manually created session, so it gets the full standard tool set (read/write/glob/grep, shell, goal, web search, …), not just the browser tools.
  • Full file browser — list/search, text preview (markdown, code, logs), image preview, and create/rename/copy/delete folders.
  • /dsh-agfs command — opens the file browser in the system default browser and automatically navigates to the current session's workspace directory (session cwd); switch workspaces and it follows.
  • browse_files / read_file model tools — the model can list or recursively search the browser root, and read text files under it, directly.
  • Path safety — browsing confined to the root, strictRoot real-path checks, symlink/junction escape interception (clean 400 envelope), readOnly mode, remoteMode.
  • Offline frontend — React/ReactDOM ship in the package; boots without a CDN or Babel.
  • Security headersX-Content-Type-Options: nosniff, X-Frame-Options: DENY, Referrer-Policy: no-referrer.
  • dsh.bundle one-line install — activates as a profile layer.

Install

Option 1: one-click via natural language in the dsh dialog (recommended)

In the DeepSeek Harness web dialog, ask the agent directly, for example:

Install the file-browser plugin dsh-agfs

Install the npm package @open-agfs/dsh-agfs

The agent invokes a shell tool to run:

dsh plugin --profile web add @open-agfs/dsh-agfs

Then restart dsh web (or ask the agent to restart it) and run /dsh-agfs in the dialog to open the file browser.

Prerequisite: this flow needs the agent's shell tools (bash/pwsh) enabled and permitted. The web profile disables shell tools by default — enable them under Settings → tools/permissions, or approve the command when the agent asks. Without shell tools, use Option 2.

Option 2: one-line CLI install

dsh plugin --profile web add @open-agfs/dsh-agfs

After the install, restart dsh web and run /dsh-agfs in the dialog.

Upgrade to the latest version:

dsh plugin --profile web add @open-agfs/dsh-agfs@latest

Option 3: source overlay (for development)

From a checkout of this repository, mount the source through a --patch overlay:

- insert:
    - id: dsh-agfs
      name: 'file:///absolute/path/to/dsh-agfs/src/index.ts'

then dsh web --patch ./overlay.yml. Plugin code changes need a dsh restart; frontend assets are served from disk per request.

Usage

  • Run /dsh-agfs in the dialog: the system default browser opens the file browser and reports its URL; when the current session carries a workspace directory (session cwd), the browser boots directly at that workspace.
  • With openOnCommand: false the URL is only reported, the browser is not opened.
  • Click a file to preview text/images; use the toolbar search (recursive, 200-hit cap); the sidebar offers quick access (Desktop/Downloads/Documents…), custom roots, and drives; right-click for create folder / rename / copy / delete (subject to readOnly).

Config

KeyDefaultMeaning
basePath/dsh-agfsWebserver route prefix serving the app and its API; must start with / and have no trailing slash.
fileRootcurrent working directoryFile-browser root; drives stay reachable through the sidebar.
projectRootworking directoryProject root shown in the sidebar.
remoteModefalseWhen true, the open, open_location, and copy endpoints are disabled.
readOnlyfalseWhen true, the delete, create_folder, rename, and copy endpoints answer 403; browsing stays fully readable.
strictRootfalseWhen true, browsing is locked inside fileRoot: absolute paths are rejected and symlink/junction escapes fail with a 400 envelope.
roots{}Named browse roots shown in the sidebar as name -> path; entries that do not resolve to an existing directory are dropped.
openOnCommandtrueWhether /dsh-agfs opens the system default browser.
debugfalseWhen true, API calls and system-open results are logged to the dsh process stderr with a [dsh-agfs:debug] prefix.

Config lives in the profile's user patch layer ($DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>/cordis.patch.yml):

- id: dsh-agfs
  config:
    fileRoot: 'D:/projects/my-project'
    readOnly: true

API

The frontend calls the endpoint set under ${basePath}/api/file_browser/: list, read, download, open, open_location, search, info, workspace, sidebar, thumbnail, mode, debug, delete, create_folder, rename, copy, and analyze (one-click AI analysis, local mode only). Paths are confined under the browsable root. search accepts recursive=1 (also true/yes) with a 200-hit cap and a directory-depth cap of 5. Every response carries the security headers; static assets answer GET/HEAD only.

Model tools

The plugin registers two model tools over the same pure core the HTTP layer uses:

  • browse_files (parameters path, keyword, recursive) — list a directory or search entry names (optionally recursively). Returns a canonical { items: [...] } value rendered as TYPE<TAB>SIZE<TAB>PATH text lines; a blank keyword falls back to a plain listing.
  • read_file (parameter path) — read one UTF-8 text file (markdown, code, logs) under the browser root and return its content, so an analysis agent can inspect file contents, not only names.

The parameter schemas and descriptions flow into the assembled prompt like every other registered tool.

Known Limitations

  • Font Awesome icons load from cdnjs — boot no longer needs a CDN (React/ReactDOM are vendored and Babel is eliminated by the precompiled app.js), but the toolbar icons still come from cdnjs; without network access the app works without icons.
  • Shallow search onlysearch matches entry names in one directory (200-hit cap); recursive content search is not implemented.
  • Thumbnails stream the original image — no resize is performed; large images are sent in full and scaled by CSS.
  • openOnCommand spawns on the host — the browser opens on the machine running dsh, which is correct for a loopback deployment but surprising for remote clients.

Development

pnpm install
pnpm test        # vitest: unit suites plus the real-Loader composition suite (94 tests)
pnpm typecheck   # tsc --noEmit
pnpm lint        # oxlint
pnpm build       # tsc types + tsdown bundles -> lib/
pnpm run build:frontend   # regenerate assets/app.js after editing assets/app.jsx

The frontend source is assets/app.jsx; its compiled form assets/app.js (classic JSX runtime, no Babel at runtime) and the vendored React/ReactDOM UMD builds under assets/vendor/ ship in the package so the app boots without a CDN.

Publishing

Releases are tag-driven: pushing a v* tag triggers GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/publish.yml) to publish to npm. Tags are cut manually — the script never tags on its own:

pnpm run release                    # report release state only (no writes)
pnpm run release -- --do            # cut a release now (patch bump): commit + tag + push
pnpm run release -- --do --version 0.2.0   # cut a release at a chosen version
pnpm run release -- --do --dry-run  # preview without writing or pushing

scripts/release.mjs without flags prints the current version, the last v* tag, and the commit count since it; with --do it bumps the version, commits chore: release vX.Y.Z, creates the tag, and pushes main + the tag. The repository needs an AGFS secret (a granular npm publish token with bypass-2FA). The package declares the published @deepseek-ai/dsh-* harness packages as peers, so a published install resolves them from npm.
