Guards the persisted session-projection cache: per-row JSON degradation so one misbehaving projection unit (e.g. a third-party plugin storing a Map) can never stall session titles or the whole cache again, plus a startup self-heal that backfills missing titles.
Install
# from GitHub (first run asks for allowBuilds approval — follow the hint, retry)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:DamonKoy/dsh-projection-guard
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. Only install sources you trust, and pin a commit (github:owner/repo#sha).
README
A DeepSeek Harness (DSH) plugin that guards the persisted session-projection cache against misbehaving projection units — so session titles (and every other projection) survive restarts no matter what third-party plugins do.
The bug it fixes
DSH persists per-session projection checkpoints (session titles, stats, permissions, …) into session_projcache.json. The write path serializes the whole per-session checkpoint in one JSON pass: if a single projection unit stores a non-JSON value (a Map, Set, class instance, cyclic or non-finite value — e.g. some third-party plugins), the entire write fails. The failure is fail-soft (log-only), so the cache silently stops updating. After a restart, every cold session loses its title projection and the UI falls back to showing the workspace folder name instead of the conversation title.
What this plugin does
Per-row degradation (runtime wrapper). It wraps
sessionProjectionCache.put()and drops only the rows that are not lossless JSON, keeping every healthy row durable. One bad unit can no longer stall the whole cache — titles,sessionListMetadata, stats etc. keep writing normally.Startup self-heal. On startup it scans persisted sessions whose cached title is missing and cold-reads their logs to backfill the
titleprojection, so an already-stale cache recovers automatically.Observability. A read-only
GET /projection-guard/statusroute reports wrapped-put call counts, dropped rows, and repaired titles (also shown as a small card in Settings when the client half is mounted).
No official or third-party files are modified — the guard is a pure runtime wrapper, so it survives dsh upgrades and works on any deployment.
Install
dsh plugin --profile web add github:DamonKoy/dsh-projection-guard
Restart dsh web. That's it.
Or add the repo as a profile dependency and include the bundle:
{
"dependencies": {
"dsh-projection-guard": "github:DamonKoy/dsh-projection-guard"
},
"dsh": {
"profile": {
"bundles": ["dsh-projection-guard"]
}
}
}
Then pnpm install in the profile directory and restart dsh web.
