How to use DSH Crew: what you can do with it

4 use cases

• Send mechanical coding tasks from Claude Code to DSH flash workers

  Hand simple, well-scoped jobs to cheap DSH flash workers from Claude Code and watch them in the host's task panel.

  • REPO ZSeven-W/dsh-crew
  • Claude Code
  • Software and DevOps
  • Intermediate
  View prompt

  In the dsh-crew repo (ZSeven-W/dsh-crew), install the Claude Code integration with `node src/install/cli.mjs claude`, restart the session, and dispatch <task> to ds-flash. Report the worker's tier, progress, and final result. Verify the job appears in Claude Code's task UI before reporting success.

• Run many translation or batch jobs in parallel and track them on one board

  Split a large batch of text into independent jobs, dispatch them at once, and monitor them in the DSH Crew panel.

  • REPO ZSeven-W/dsh-crew
  • Claude Code
  • Codex
  • Software and DevOps
  • Intermediate
  View prompt

  Using the dsh-crew repo (ZSeven-W/dsh-crew), dispatch one independent translation job per target file in <folder> to ds-flash, all in parallel. Expected output: one translated file per target and a list of job statuses. Verify each job is listed in the DSH Crew panel and that no job was refused by the workspace guardrail.

• Let text-only DSH agents describe images through a vision fallback

  Use the multimodal bridge so DSH workers can describe images by calling DeepSeek's vision model or an installed CLI.

  • REPO ZSeven-W/dsh-crew
  • Claude Code
  • Codex
  • Software and DevOps
  • Advanced
  View prompt

  Using the dsh-crew repo (ZSeven-W/dsh-crew), dispatch a worker that calls describe_image on <image-path>. Expected output: a text description of the image. Verify the connectivity test for the configured provider passed before relying on the result.

• Run DSH workers in CI or on a machine with no DSH instance running

  Set up the standalone fallback with a DeepSeek key so dispatch works in headless environments.

  • REPO ZSeven-W/dsh-crew
  • Software and DevOps
  • Advanced
  View prompt

  In the dsh-crew repo (ZSeven-W/dsh-crew), configure the standalone fallback with a DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in ~/.config/dsh-crew/.env and run `node scripts/smoke.mjs`. Expected output: the smoke test line that shows which path ran and whether configuration passed. Verify it reports `smoke test passed` before any scripted dispatch.

Quick start with DSH Crew

1. Check you have what it needs: A DeepSeek Harness (DSH) instance to install the plugin into, or a DeepSeek API key for the standalone fallback; npm and node available on the machine, since the install commands use them; Claude Code or Codex installed as the orchestrating host.
2. Open ZSeven-W/dsh-crew on GitHub and read the README and license.
3. Install the plugin into a DSH profile: dsh plugin --profile web add @zseven-w/dsh-crew@latest
4. Start the DSH web instance: dsh web
5. Run the smoke test and confirm it prints smoke test passed, configuration OK: node scripts/smoke.mjs (inferred, check the README)
6. Install the Claude Code integration: node src/install/cli.mjs claude

These steps come from our top use case, Send mechanical coding tasks from Claude Code to DSH flash workers, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
