Agent language control — three independently configured channels for DeepSeek Harness (DSH) model output: tool-call descriptions (including PTC mode's run_code description, the call card title), model thinking, and replies — each follows the GUI language, forces a fixed language, or turns off, with one-click sync-all / off-all shortcuts. By default only the descriptions channel is on.

Why

Every tool call in DSH carries a required description argument that is displayed verbatim as the call's UI label. The tool schemas describe that field with English wording and English examples ("5-10 words … Examples: 'Count TODO markers…'"), so models default to English descriptions regardless of the GUI language.

This plugin changes only the PROMPT side: one global dynamic runtime-context directive states the GUI's display language and instructs the model to write every tool-call description in it. No preset, persona, or tool schema is modified — those are deployment-owned assets an upgrade overwrites anyway.

Coverage

How it works

• Detection order (auto mode): the explicit Settings → General → Language choice > the browser-reported active locale. English is a regular target too (v0.3.0+): some models mix languages inside thinking/replies, and an explicit English directive pins them; only a fully undetected language injects nothing.
• Channel: systemPrompt.context() — the same per-request runtime-context snapshot as the sandbox/approval policies, rendered near the end of each request so recency beats the English tool-schema guidance. A GUI language switch takes effect on the very next request.
• Settings card: Settings → Plugins pairs Host-served namespaces with registered cards automatically; switch behavior (follow GUI language / force a BCP 47 tag — pick from the dropdown or type one, e.g. zh, ja / off) and inspect the detection chain.

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-agent-lang

Plain JS, no build step, no installed dependencies (schemastery is a peer resolved through the profile). Restart DSH after installing.

Verify

1. Install, restart DSH, open the Web GUI (browser language or setting on Chinese);
2. ~/.dsh/settings.yaml gains a agent-lang: section (uiLocale: zh) once a page loaded;
3. Any new session: tool-call descriptions come out in Chinese;
4. Switch the GUI language in Settings → General — descriptions switch on the next request;
5. Settings → Plugins → Tool Description Language: pick ja from the force-language dropdown (or type any tag), switch off, etc.

Known limits

• minimal is sealed by design (see table).
• Without a browser page (pure CLI deployments) only the explicit choice is detectable.
• The GUI language is one global value; the most recently loaded page's report wins.
• Subagents / workflow models see the directive too (their descriptions are user-facing as well).
