 "page_title": "How to run a DeepSeek agent on your desktop without a terminal with Dshcode",
 "summary": "Install the DSHCode app, add your DeepSeek API key, and start an agent session in a workspace.",
 "who": "A non-developer or busy professional who wants an AI agent that can work on files and run tools, and who does not want to use a command line.",
 "problem": "Setting up an agent framework usually means installing Node.js, using a terminal, and configuring a local web server.",
 "outcome": "A working desktop agent session that uses the official DeepSeek API, with the app managing its own Web profile.",
 "steps": [
  "Download the DSHCode installer for your platform from the Releases page: a .dmg for macOS Apple Silicon or Intel, or a .exe for Windows x64.",
  "On macOS, right-click the app in Finder, choose Open, and confirm in the dialog. On Windows, click More info in the SmartScreen dialog, then choose Run anyway.",
  "Open DSHCode from the Applications folder or the Start menu, then add your DeepSeek API key once in the app settings.",
  "Start a new session in a folder you want the agent to work in, and review each tool action when the approval prompt appears."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Help me install DSHCode from https://github.com/whitelonng/dshcode on <my operating system> by following the README download and first-launch steps. Confirm the app opens and that an API key is saved in its settings, and report any SmartScreen or Gatekeeper warning you saw.",

 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The preview installers are not code signed or notarized, so macOS Gatekeeper or Windows SmartScreen will warn before the first launch.",
