Who it is forA developer who wants to add a capability to DeepSeek Harness and share it with other users.
The problemExtending an agent harness usually means forking it, while this one is designed around plugins.
The outcomeA plugin repository that is discoverable through the dsh-plugin GitHub topic.
What you need first
- Node.js installed
- A terminal and a web browser
- pnpm, if running from source
- Git, if running from source
- Review of the SAFETY.md safety notice before running the project
Steps
- Read the architecture documentation in docs/architecture.md.
- Read the development guide in docs/development.md.
- Clone the repository, run
pnpm install, and runpnpm run buildto confirm the base project works. - Create your plugin repository on GitHub and add the
dsh-plugintopic to it.
Prompt for your agent
Using docs/architecture.md and docs/development.md in the deepseek-harness repository, draft a plugin in <target folder> that <describe capability>. Run `pnpm run build` in the base repo and report whether the plugin loads without errors.
Caveat. The README does not document a plugin API, so the architecture and development docs are the only source for plugin details.
