ChatGPT-style side chat for DeepSeek Harness: a floating side panel in the Web GUI where you can ask small questions about the current topic — answered by an independent lightweight session that never touches the main conversation.

Screenshots

Before — the default view. The floating quick-ask button sits on the right edge of the chat view and stays out of the way:

After — the side panel open. Ask a question about the current topic; it is answered by an independent side session, and the main conversation is left untouched:

Features

• Isolated side session — questions run in a separate DSH session driven through the official /api RPC (session/create, session/prompt, session/cancel) and streamed over the /api/remote.mux WebSocket. The main conversation's history, queue, and agent are never affected.
• Topic-aware — the panel automatically attaches a snapshot of the visible main conversation (plus any composer draft) as background context, so answers stay on-topic. Can be disabled per question.
• Lightweight UX — streaming text, collapsible reasoning, tool-call chips, stop button, queued questions, preset selector (agent presets from the host), persistent history restore, theme-aware (follows DSH light/dark).
• Zero host logic — pure client plugin (dsh.client.platform: "web"), no server-side services, no dependencies.
• No interference — the side session shows up as its own session in the session list (titled from its first question), exactly like a separate ChatGPT chat.

Install

From the plugin market

1. Open the DeepSeek Harness plugin market and install dsh-quick-ask, or from the CLI:

   dsh plugin --profile <profile> add dsh-quick-ask
   

2. Reload the web page (a host restart is only needed if the market could not hot-mount it).

Manual

pnpm add dsh-quick-ask        # into your profile
# add "dsh-quick-ask" to dsh.profile.bundles in the profile package.json

Usage

• Click the floating chat button on the right edge of the chat view (or the panel opens automatically if it was left open).
• Type a question and press Enter (Shift+Enter for a newline).
• 新话题 starts a fresh side session; 清屏 clears the panel display only; 停止 cancels the current answer.
• Uncheck 附带主对话上下文 to ask without background context.

Development

node build.mjs      # wraps src/client.js + src/style.css into lib/client.js

• src/client.js — client plugin body (factory-form bundle body).
• src/style.css — panel styles (theme-aware via body[data-ds-dark-theme]).
• lib/index.js — no-op host half (required for the Loader entry).
