Plugins for DSH (DeepSeek Harness) — and the notes I wish I had when writing the first one.

Plugin	What it does
plugins/deepseek-web-chat	A chat.deepseek.com panel in DSH's right sidebar: ask the web chat from inside the app, with workspace files or a DSH conversation attached as context. Uses your own account, no API key.

Why a repo for plugins

A DSH plugin is small but not obvious: it has a Host half (a Cordis plugin that owns services, HTTP routes and credentials) and a browser half (a bundle the DSH web UI registers as a slot), plus a bundle patch so the loader knows the Host row. This repo keeps those pieces in one place with a repeatable layout, tests and a reload workflow:

dsh-plugins/
├─ README.md / README.zh-CN.md      this page
├─ LICENSE                          MIT
├─ docs/
│  ├─ writing-a-plugin.md           how the two halves fit together
│  └─ writing-a-plugin.zh-CN.md
└─ plugins/
   └─ deepseek-web-chat/
      ├─ package.json               dsh.bundle / dsh.client declarations
      ├─ cordis.patch.yml           bundle layer: insert the Host row
      ├─ lib/                       Host (index.js, host/*) + client bundle (client.js) + web UI
      ├─ scripts/                   self-tests, smoke tests, preview server
      └─ docs/                      bilingual user guide and screenshots

Quick start

Open Plugins → Add plugin in DSH and paste this one line:

github:vector-c-li/dsh-plugins#path:/plugins/deepseek-web-chat

DSH installs it with pnpm and enables it as a bundle; refresh the page (restart once if the sidebar tab is missing) and open DeepSeek Chat from the + menu. The proof-of-work module is fetched on first use, so there is nothing else to download.

Prefer a local checkout (for development)? git clone the repo and follow plugins/deepseek-web-chat/README.md (English) or README.zh-CN.md (中文).

Reading order

1. docs/writing-a-plugin.md — Host half, browser half, bundle patch, the module-cache trick that makes hot reload work, and the testing pyramid this repo follows.
2. plugins/deepseek-web-chat — a complete worked example: credentials, an HTTP route, an SSE stream, a WebAssembly dependency, drag-and-drop context, bilingual UI.
3. plugins/deepseek-web-chat/docs/guide.en.md — the user-facing guide.

Conventions

• One plugin per directory under plugins/, named after its package (dsh-<name>).
• Bilingual docs: every human-facing document exists as X.md (English) and X.zh-CN.md (中文), each starting with a language switcher line.
• No personal data in git: no absolute home paths, no account identifiers, no tokens, no screenshots of a real account. See the checklist in the writing guide.
• Downloaded assets stay out: vendor blobs (like the proof-of-work module) are fetched by a script and listed in .gitignore.

Privacy

These plugins run inside your DSH and talk to third-party services with your credentials. Nothing is collected by this repository: there is no telemetry, and no server of mine is involved. Each plugin's README has a Privacy section that states exactly what it stores and what leaves your machine — read it before attaching files or conversations as context.
