# AI use cases for DeepSeek Harness Mobile (sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile) Repo: [sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile](https://github.com/sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile) | Use cases: 4 | Page: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/sorsama-deepseek-harness-mobile/ DSH Mobile is an unofficial Android app that connects to a DeepSeek Harness AI coding agent so you can chat with it, follow tasks, and answer its requests from your phone. This file holds every use case of this repo. Each one starts with a "## " heading and ends with its URL. - Follow and approve a coding task from your phone on Wi-Fi: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/sorsama-deepseek-harness-mobile/follow-coding-task-from-phone-on-wifi/ - Approve agent work from outside your network via Relay: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/sorsama-deepseek-harness-mobile/approve-agent-work-away-from-home/ - Test the app against a local harness over USB: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/sorsama-deepseek-harness-mobile/test-app-against-local-harness-over-usb/ - Run the harness on your phone using Termux: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/sorsama-deepseek-harness-mobile/run-harness-on-phone-with-termux/ ## How to follow and approve a coding task from your phone on Wi-Fi with DeepSeek Harness Mobile Repo: [sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile](https://github.com/sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 30 minutes | Basis: From the README Connect the Android app to a harness on your home or office network and watch an agent work. **Who it is for:** A developer who started a coding task at their desk and wants to check progress from the couch or a meeting room on the same Wi-Fi. **The problem:** The agent stops to ask for approval or answers, and the developer is away from the computer. **The outcome:** The phone shows the live session, and the developer can approve commands, answer questions, and send follow-ups. ### Steps 1. Install the APK from the latest release at https://github.com/sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile/releases/latest and open it on your Android 8.0 or newer phone. 2. On the computer, run `dsh web --host 192.168.1.20`, replacing 192.168.1.20 with the computer's real local address. 3. Copy the line the harness prints that starts with `dsh web: http://`, including the token. 4. In the app, choose Local network, paste the whole link into the address field or tap the paste button, and tap Connect. 5. Pick the session from the list, then approve or reject any pending command when the agent asks. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the repo sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile, set up Local network mode so an Android phone can reach a DeepSeek Harness at . Output the exact dsh web command to run and the steps to paste the printed link into the app. Verify that the link includes a token before connecting. ``` ### Caveat Local network mode checks the sign-in token but does not encrypt traffic, so use it only on a network you trust. Risk, credentials: The token in the dsh web link signs the phone in, and anyone who has the link can sign in until the harness restarts. Disclaimer: Third-party repos we don't own or vouch for. AI-generated use cases can be wrong: review everything and run at your own risk.

Install the APK from the latest release at https://github.com/sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile/releases/latest. 2. Install the dsh-relay plugin from https://github.com/sorsama/deepseek-harness-relay on the harness computer. 3. Follow the Relay page at https://github.com/sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile/wiki/Relay to set the password and pairing. 4. In the app, choose Relay and scan the pairing QR code. 5. Open the session and answer the agent's questions or review its plan. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the repo sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile and its Relay wiki page, list the steps to pair the Android app with a harness through dsh-relay from . Output an ordered checklist. Verify that the checklist includes scanning the pairing QR code in the app. ``` ### Caveat The Relay plugin lives in a separate repository, so its own setup steps and requirements apply in addition to this app's. Risk, credentials: A signed-in phone can do anything the agent can do, so the Relay password and the paired device must be kept private. Disclaimer: Third-party repos we don't own or vouch for.

Run `dsh web` on the computer. 2. Run `adb reverse tcp:3080 tcp:3080` to forward the port to the phone or emulator. 3. In the app, choose This phone. 4. Sign in with the link that `dsh web` printed. 5. Run `./gradlew :app:assembleDebug` in a source checkout to build a debug APK if you want to test your own changes. (inferred, check the README) ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the repo sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile, give the exact commands to forward port 3080 from a computer to an Android device over adb and to build the debug APK. Output the commands in order. Verify that the adb reverse command uses tcp:3080 on both ends. ``` ### Caveat The README gives the USB route only as a short setup line, so you need adb installed and working on the computer first.

Install Termux from https://f-droid.org/packages/com.termux/ and install the DSH Mobile APK from the latest release. 2. Read harness/TERMUX.md in the repo before you set up Node in Termux, because it does not work on every device yet. 3. Follow the Termux setup steps in harness/TERMUX.md to install the harness inside Termux. 4. In the app, choose This phone and let the app start the harness and sign you in. 5. Pick a session and send a message to the agent. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the repo sorsama/deepseek-harness-mobile and its harness/TERMUX.md guide, list the steps to run DeepSeek Harness inside Termux on an Android phone. Output a checklist with a note for any device requirement. Verify that the checklist says to read the guide before installing Node. ``` ### Caveat Setting up Node in Termux does not work on every device yet, so check harness/TERMUX.md before spending time on the install.
