DeepSeek Harness Plugin

SPYQWER1/dsh-codex-tools

Stars ★ 4 Downloads (30d) 479 Category Tools & Capabilities Added 2026-08-14 npm dsh-codex-tools

Codex-backed `web_search`, `image_gen`, and `image_vision` tools for DeepSeek Harness, reusing ChatGPT OAuth login state.

Install

# from npm (prebuilt)

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-codex-tools

# from GitHub (first run asks for allowBuilds approval — follow the hint, retry)

dsh plugin --profile web add github:SPYQWER1/dsh-codex-tools

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

中文

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that registers three tools provided by ChatGPT Codex:

Tool Function
codex_web_search Searches the public web and returns a summary with source URLs.
image_gen Generates a bitmap image. It does not edit or transform an existing image.
image_vision Reads a local image and returns a description or an answer to a question about it.

It consumes an existing Codex/ChatGPT login; it does not provide login or an LLM provider.

Runtime requirements

  • DeepSeek Harness.
  • A ChatGPT/Codex login state, either codex login with an auth file, or credentials in DSH:
    • OPENAI_CODEX_API_KEY
    • OPENAI_CODEX_REFRESH_TOKEN

Credentials are resolved from CODEX_ACCESS_TOKEN and CODEX_REFRESH_TOKEN environment variables first (the plugin maps the DSH credential names above to these variables). If those are absent, the transport reads $CODEX_HOME/auth.json when CODEX_HOME is set, or ~/.codex/auth.json otherwise. Set CODEX_HOME to choose another auth directory; the default is ~/.codex. After an HTTP 401, a transport refreshes the access token once and attempts to persist the refreshed login state to that auth file. When the plugin injects DSH credentials, the refresh code may still write to the auth file selected by CODEX_HOME or the default path.

Installation

# Git
dsh plugin --profile web add github:SPYQWER1/dsh-codex-tools

# npm
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-codex-tools

Restart after installation (dsh web or dsh --profile web). Remove it with dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-codex-tools.

Tool parameters

codex_web_search

Parameter Type Default / limits
query string (required) Public-web research question.
maxSources integer 5; from 1 to 10.
freshness string cached, or live for time-sensitive queries.
model string gpt-5.4-mini.

The result contains summary and sources; each source has a title, URL, and snippet.

image_gen

Parameter Type Default / limits
prompt string (required) Describe the subject, style, composition, palette, and constraints.
out string output/imagegen/<timestamp>.<format>; must be relative to the current DSH session workspace. The workspace root comes from DSH's sandbox-policy service. Absolute paths, parent-directory segments, and symbolic links are rejected. Parent directories are created, and existing files are never overwritten. If out is omitted, the extension follows format.
size string auto, 1024x1024, 1536x1024, 1024x1536, 2048x2048, or 2048x1152.
format string png, jpeg, or webp; default png.
model string gpt-5.5.

image_vision

Parameter Type Default / limits
image string (required) Existing png, jpeg/jpg, webp, or gif under the current DSH session workspace; absolute paths, parent-directory segments, and symbolic links are rejected. Maximum 15 MiB.
question string Optional focus question; omitted means a full description.
model string gpt-5.5.

The transport reads the local file, embeds it in the request, and sends it to the ChatGPT Codex endpoint. Only files inside the transport workspace are accepted.

Caveats and service terms

  • chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/responses is an internal endpoint used by the official Codex CLI, not a documented public API. It may change or be restricted without notice.
  • Search summaries and snippets are model-generated; open the returned source URLs and check the original text before relying on them.
  • Web search and image generation use the metered Codex-usage bucket of the ChatGPT plan.
  • Follow OpenAI's Terms of Use; do not use a ChatGPT subscription to power a public-facing image-generation service.
