Credentials. A page that needs a sign-in is read through a session you keep for it, so use only accounts you are allowed to use and keep that session private.
Who it is forA researcher or marketer who receives links and screenshots in chat and wants a quick read before deciding what to do.
The problemOpening every link or screenshot to get the gist takes time, and the context often sits in a chat you already have open.
The outcomeThe bot reads the page or looks at the image and replies in the conversation with what it found.
What you need first
- A Mac running macOS, since the installer and services are macOS only
- Node.js 22+
- The DeepSeek Harness app, which the installer can download for you
- A DeepSeek API key, or a key the harness already has
- A bot token from Slack, Telegram or Discord
Steps
- Run
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rlaope/deepseek-bot/master/install.sh | bashin a macOS terminal. - Run
dsh gateway setupand connect a messenger. - Send the bot a direct message with a link and ask for the main points.
- Send an image as well, if the model you use accepts images, and ask what it shows.
Prompt for your agent
Using the repo rlaope/deepseek-bot on a Mac with Node.js 22+, install it with the README's curl command and connect a messenger with `dsh gateway setup`. Send the bot a direct message with <page-url> and ask for the main points; the expected output is a reply in the same thread summarizing the page. Verify that the summary matches the page's actual content by opening the link yourself.
Caveat. The README says image reading needs a model that accepts images and that pages drawn with JavaScript are read with a headless browser, one page per run.
