DeepSeek Harness Plugin

Yinxe/deepseek-harness-plugins#vision-bridge

Category Vision & Multimodal Added 2026-09-19

Let text-only models see images: when a picture arrives with a placeholder like \[image omitted because this model accepts text only], the model calls the vision_describe tool and the plugin forwards the image reference plus the question to a multimodal model, retrying with a fallback model on failure. Configured in the settings page and persisted via the official settings API.

Install

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

dsh plugin --profile web add github:Yinxe/deepseek-harness-plugins#path:/plugins/vision-bridge

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).
