Windows desktop shortcut for dsh web: launches the server, auto-opens the browser when ready, and stops the service when the Harness window closes.
Install
# from npm (prebuilt)
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-desktop-shortcut
# from GitHub (first run asks for allowBuilds approval — follow the hint, retry)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:fuyue521/dsh-desktop-shortcut
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).

✨ About
DeepSeek Harness (dsh web) has no official desktop entry.
This tool creates a Windows desktop shortcut so you can open DSH Web directly by double-clicking, without typing commands or copying URLs.
It also adds a draggable floating refresh button to the Web UI for a smoother daily experience.

yjh051108/dsh-routing-suite★ 7003
One repository, three parts: a runtime injector for DSH plugin packages (inject, hot-reload, unload, promote a dev staging tool to the front, route self-heal, plus a settings-page plugin manager that lists, unloads and drags folders in to internalize), a task-aware reasoning-mode router agent preset (router-standard / router-spec / router-react), and a graded two-level task protocol whose six tools (commit_star, lock_stage, revise_do, edit_plan, mark_task, redteam_verdict) pin task state to disk. The injector implementation ships in-tree, so the install carries its own behaviour rather than a dependency list.
strukto-ai/mirage#dsh★ 3666
Swaps the filesystem and bash providers for a mirage virtual workspace: file tools and shell commands run over mounted resources (RAM, S3, Redis, Slack, Gmail, Notion, Postgres) instead of the host disk, with per-mount read/write/exec modes, per-command sandbox routing (monty, pyodide, quickjs in process; docker, e2b, daytona remote), and installed CLIs (git, gh, slack, linear, ntn, gws, or one you register) as head words in the virtual terminal.

Community distribution: TUI, desktop, and Web UI as one bundle with layered installation.
weijiafu14/pi2dsh★ 206
Pi Host ABI compatibility engine: after one install, unmodified Pi extensions from npm mount as native DSH plugins with `dsh plugin add <pi-package>`. Verified end to end on stock DSH with pi-mcp-adapter (full MCP manager: OAuth, resources, prompts, MCP Apps, elicitation, sampling), @tintinweb/pi-subagents, pi-code, pi-hermes-memory and pi-background-tasks; `pi2dsh inspect` reports a package's compatibility before installing.
lire1131/dsh-undo-savepoint★ 166
Undo/redo & rollback system for DSH: every config change is auto-snapshotted; undo/redo/restore to any version from the WebUI or the offline CLI/GUI tools (works even when DSH fails to boot).
Fishquito7/dsh-skill-mcp-panel★ 155
Manages DSH skills and MCP servers from the web settings: skill cards with hot enable/disable, workspace scopes, groups, batch migration and drag-and-drop import, plus stdio/HTTP MCP CRUD with connection tests, secret redaction and the unified dsh-panel CLI.
