 "title": "Restart a DSH conversation from an earlier message and optionally revert the wor",
 "page_title": "How to restart a DSH conversation from an earlier message and optionally revert the wor with DSH Config Manager",
 "summary": "Branch a conversation from any user message while keeping the original archived and unchanged.",
 "who": "A developer in a long DSH session who realizes an earlier message sent the work down the wrong path.",
 "problem": "Continuing from a bad turn keeps the wrong context, and undoing the work by hand across files is slow.",
 "outcome": "A new branch conversation starts from the chosen message, the original stays intact in the archive, and workspace files can be reverted with a per-file diff shown first.",
 "steps": [
  "Find the user message you want to restart from in the conversation.",
  "Click the rewind to here action on that message.",
  "Decide whether to revert the workspace files too.",
  "Review the per-file diff and line counts shown before anything changes.",
  "Confirm, then continue in the new branch conversation."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In DeepSeek Harness on <machine>, use the DSH Config Manager rewind feature on the user message <message-id> in the conversation <conversation-name>. Keep the original conversation archived, do not revert workspace files, and report the new branch conversation name and the original's archive status.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Rewind is separate from Snapshot restore, so reverting workspace files here does not roll back the full configuration.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "DeepSeek Harness (DSH) installed on each machine involved",
  "This plugin installed in DSH",
  "A target machine (Windows, macOS or Linux) for the restore or migration",
  "For sync: a private Git repository, a WebDAV server, an S3-compatible bucket, or a GitHub Gist",
  "An encryption password if you want credentials to travel with a backup"
