DSH Remote Host

Pair an Android phone to DeepSeek Harness over your LAN.

DSH Remote is an installable plugin for a PC running dsh web, plus a separate Android APK. From the phone you open Host sessions, send turns, approve tool calls, and review artifacts — without exposing workspace paths.

It is not a fork of DeepSeek Harness and not an official DeepSeek product. Add the plugin to the stock web profile. The Android app is a separate download.

What you get

1. This plugin — @w2112515/dsh-remote-host on npm or GitHub. Host carrier, Noise pairing, LAN discovery, Settings → Mobile access.
2. One Android APK from dsh-remote-android releases. That repository is the phone client, not a DSH plugin.

What the phone can do

On the phone	What actually happens
Session list	Host directory, grouped by project / workspace label. Blank Host sessions stay hidden until this device creates one or the first turn lands.
Chat / trajectory / export	Live projection of the open session: messages, tools, usage when the Host serves it, model and agent preset.
New session	Bind to an existing Host workspace, or ask the Host to create a folder under an allowed parent. The phone never mkdirs and never sees a full path.
Approvals	Pending tool approvals for the paired Host.
Artifacts	Host-projected file outputs, with a local “reviewed” marker on this device.
Hosts	Pair another PC, see online / idle, unpair.

Pairing is Noise (XXpsk3 / IK): scan the Host QR, confirm the eight-digit code on the PC. LAN advertisement stays off until you turn it on in Settings → Mobile access.

Requirements

• DeepSeek Harness dsh web on Windows x64 (the reviewed Host security platform).
• Same Wi-Fi / LAN as the phone. There is no public relay or tunnel in this release.
• Android phone that can sideload a debug APK (dev.dshremote.gate0c).

Linux and macOS still show the Mobile access settings page and skip the carrier. iOS is not available.

Install the Host plugin

Prebuilt npm package, no install scripts:

dsh plugin --profile web add @w2112515/dsh-remote-host
dsh --profile web --dump-config

Confirm the dump includes host-remote-control, host-remote-command, host-remote, and ui-settings-remote. Restart dsh web.

Then open Settings → Mobile access (not Settings → Plugins). Turn on nearby discovery.

Install via npm today. Community marketplace catalogs may list this plugin after their scanner admits w2112515/dsh-remote-host; do not wait on that to use it.

Then install the APK

1. Download the latest APK from dsh-remote-android releases.
2. Sideload it on the phone.
3. Join the same Wi-Fi, scan the Host QR, confirm the eight-digit code on the PC.

Remove

dsh plugin --profile web remove @w2112515/dsh-remote-host

The Host identity file remote-host-security.bin under DSH home is not deleted automatically.

FAQ

What is DSH Remote? A LAN remote for DeepSeek Harness: this Host plugin plus the Android APK. The phone talks to the same dsh web process on the Remote port, not to the Web UI port.

Is it official? No. It is a third-party plugin for the stock web profile.

Will the phone see my disk paths? No. The wire carries workspace ids and labels, session titles, and folder names you type. Absolute paths stay on the Host.

Can I use it off my home Wi-Fi? Not in this release. Same LAN only. A relay / tunnel is future work.

Why two downloads? The phone client is an Android app, not a DSH plugin. Install this Host plugin, then sideload the APK.

I created a session on the phone and it vanished from the list. Current Android builds keep a local row for a session this device just created. Update the APK if you still have to force-quit to see it.
