How to test the app against a local harness over USB with DeepSeek Harness Mobile

Forward port 3080 over adb and connect an emulator or phone to a harness on your computer.

Short answer: Run dsh web on the computer; then run adb reverse tcp:3080 tcp:3080 to forward the port to the phone or emulator; in the app, choose This phone. All steps.

Who it is forAn Android developer or tester who wants to try DSH Mobile changes against a real harness without using Wi-Fi.

The problemThe phone or emulator cannot reach the harness on the computer by default.

The outcomeThe app connects through a USB or emulator tunnel and shows the harness's sessions.

What you need first

  • A computer running DeepSeek Harness with the dsh web command available
  • An Android phone running Android 8.0 or newer
  • The phone and computer on the same Wi-Fi network for Local network mode
  • The APK from the latest DSH Mobile release, or a source build with Gradle

Steps

  1. 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 for your agent

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.
