Academic writing toolkit for DSH agents: paper outlines, title and abstract skeletons, GB/T 7714 / APA / MLA citations, phrasing QA, and a pre-submission checklist.
Install
# from npm (prebuilt)
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-plugin-academic-writing
# from GitHub (first run asks for allowBuilds approval — follow the hint, retry)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:863683348/dsh-plugin-academic-writing
Any plugin you install runs third-party code with your own permissions — it can read your files, use your credentials, and reach the network, and tool approvals don’t sandbox it. GitHub-sourced plugins also run build scripts at install time — pnpm blocks those until you allow them, so an install can stop with ERR_PNPM_GIT_DEP_PREPARE_NOT_ALLOWED or ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS; dsh prints the exact key to add under allowBuilds in your profile’s pnpm-workspace.yaml, and the install works on the next run. Allowing a build is a trust decision: only install sources you trust, and pin a commit (github:owner/repo#sha).
README
An academic writing toolkit for DeepSeek Harness agents. The model composes the prose; the plugin supplies structure, formats, and deterministic checks.
Compatibility
Tool schemas are validated against the @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools value-schema DSL at plugin load (checked against dsh-tools 0.1.0-rc.6 and 0.1.1-rc.2). Earlier releases used JSON-Schema required at the root of output.schema and closed nested objects without declared properties, which made the host abort the whole profile boot with unsupported JSON schema: schema.required is not supported by the value schema DSL and could reject the tool's own results. Current releases fix both; if an affected version left your DSH unable to start, remove the plugin from the profile (or upgrade) — no data is lost.
Install
dsh plugin --profile <profile> add dsh-plugin-academic-writing
Restart DSH. The academic_writing tool is registered host-wide.

Config
All optional, on the composition row's config:
| key | default | meaning |

personaSection |
true |
register the academic prompt-guidance section |
sectionOrder |
6 |

Design
Pure logic (lib/academic.js) has zero DSH/Cordis imports and is unit-tested in isolation; lib/index.js is the thin Cordis plugin wiring the tool and the prompt section. No filesystem access — everything is deterministic and side-effect free.

Roadmap
