hl3207/dsh-movie

A left-sidebar screen radar for DeepSeek Harness: one ranked board of the movies and series that are in cinemas right now or open within the next month across China, the US, Europe, Japan and Korea — with real posters, five-sentence synopses, popular short comments, a title search that merges three sources, and a live Chinese/English switch that translates everything.

中文说明

A real board, not a mock: poster grid with rank and score, 「全部 · 上映中 · 待映」 filters, the source-health strip, and the title search at the right of the filter row. Settings page.

Install

dsh plugin add @hl3207/dsh-movie

Or
"Plugins" - "Add plugin" - Select "Registry Official npm registry" - Search and Install "@hl3207/dsh-movie" in DeepSeek Harness.

Then restart DeepSeek Harness. A film-strip entry appears in the left sidebar; click it and the board opens in the main column. The first build takes 15–25 seconds (it queries six public sources and translates the text); after that the board is cached for an hour and refreshes on demand.

You can also install it from the plugin market: Plugins → Discover → search “影视雷达” or “dsh-movie”.

Requirements: DeepSeek Harness >=0.2.1-0 <0.3.0-0 || >=0.2.2-0 <0.3.0-0, Node ^22.19.0 || >=24.0.0. Desktop app and Web GUI both work — nothing is Electron-specific, no port is hard-coded.

What you get

Ranked board	A composite of buzz, Rotten Tomatoes, Douban and audience anticipation, with diversity caps so one region or one media type cannot take over the list
Posters, not placeholders	The board is a poster grid (2:3 cards with rank and score overlaid). Click a card for the full record: large poster, whole synopsis, every comment. Posters are fetched by the Host and served from the plugin's own origin, so a source CDN's hotlink rules cannot blank them; a title with no reachable poster gets a designed plate that still reads as a card
Title search	The field at the right of 「全部 · 上映中 · 待映」 narrows the board as you type, then queries Douban, TVMaze and the iTunes storefront at once and merges their records for the same title into one row
Five-sentence synopsis	The real one from Douban / TVMaze / iTunes when it can be fetched, otherwise a description generated from the title's own metadata
Ratings and comments	Douban score, Tomatometer, IMDb, buzz and anticipation chips, plus up to three popular short comments
Bilingual titles	The title in your panel language leads, the original-language title follows as secondary text
One switch, two languages	Every synopsis and comment is translated into the language you picked, so the board never shows a Chinese comment inside an English panel

Sources

Every source is keyless — no API key, no account, nothing to configure.

Source	Provides	Notes
Douban (m.douban.com)	Chinese title, synopsis, genres, score, popular short comments, release date	Primary source for the China slate, and for the search
JustWatch	Poster, availability window, Tomatometer, IMDb score, buzz	Primary source for the US / Europe / Japan / Korea slate; its image CDN is unreachable on some networks, in which case the poster search below takes over
Douban subject_suggest	Poster search by title	Used when a source cover is dead: the title's own Douban poster is fetched and proxied
iTunes charts	Chart position (buzz), pre-orders, English longDescription	Storefronts per region; also the search's release dates and artwork
TVMaze	Series air dates, English summary, rating	Series only; also the search's series data
Rotten Tomatoes	Tomatometer via scrape	Best-effort; degrades to JustWatch's score when blocked

Providers are independent: one unreachable source degrades the board and is reported in the panel's source-health strip instead of failing the request.

Search

Search runs on two levels, and it is the part people use most:

1. Local, instantly — typing the first character filters the current board by title, original title, media type and genre. The 「全部 · 上映中 · 待映」 filters keep working alongside it.
2. On the web, after a 0.3 s pause — the plugin asks Douban, TVMaze and iTunes in parallel and merges their answers: one record per title, Douban supplying the Chinese name / synopsis / genres / score, TVMaze the series data, iTunes the release date and artwork. Results are cached for ten minutes.

Matches that already sit on the board are grouped under 「榜单内」 (click through to the detail view); the rest appear under 「全网搜索」 with poster, bilingual title, year · type · genres, Douban score, a three-line synopsis, the sources that answered, and a link to the subject page.

Douban answers a burst of traffic with an empty body rather than an error, so the search retries that one source with backoff (0.45 s / 1.3 s / 2.6 s) before giving up. If it still fails you get the English-only results instead of an error.

Translation

The anonymous HTTP translators (translate.googleapis.com, Bing) are not reachable from every network, so the board goes through the Host translator service instead, which owns the keyless Bing/Google routes together with their cancellation rules. One string per request, three in flight, a single probe before committing so a blocked route costs one timeout instead of one per string, and a fixed time budget so a slow route can never hold the board open. Every result is cached per language; a string that cannot be translated keeps its source text and is counted in the panel's notice rather than failing the request.

When no keyless route is reachable at all, the plugin falls back to the session's own model route, asking for one numbered line per input line and parsing it back.

Titles are treated as names: a translated title becomes the primary title only when it still reads like a title, otherwise the source title stays primary and the translation is dropped rather than shown.

Set translate: false to keep everything in its source language, or pin a route with translateProvider.

Configuration

Every key has a plugin-side default; the bundle seeds them so the row is self-documenting in the Plugins settings page. Overriding the row replaces the whole config value (no deep merge) — restate every key you want to keep.

Tools and routes

The plugin gives the agent one tool and serves the panel from five routes, all relative to the page origin:

• Tool movie_board — action: refresh | read | clear, optional locale and limit.
• GET /dsh-movie/api/board?locale=zh|en — the current board, built on first use.
• POST /dsh-movie/api/refresh?locale=zh|en — force a rebuild.
• GET /dsh-movie/api/search?q=<title>&locale=zh|en — the merged title search.
• GET /dsh-movie/api/cover?u=<encoded url> — the poster proxy: fetches the image with the Referer its CDN requires, caches it, and serves it same-origin. Only allowlisted hosts are fetched (doubanio.com, douban.com, justwatch.com, tvmaze.com, mzstatic.com, wikimedia.org, wikipedia.org).
• GET /dsh-movie/api/health — build time, pick count and configured regions.
• GET /dsh-movie/api/wiring — how this bundle appears in the browser boot graph. The sidebar icon comes from the Client half, which only loads with the page, so this is the fastest way to tell "not wired" from "not refreshed".

Privacy

• No account, no API key, no telemetry, no analytics.
• What leaves the machine: the titles being looked up (public sources), the text that needs translating (through the Host translator service, i.e. the same routes the rest of the harness uses), and image requests for posters (through the plugin's own proxy).
• Nothing is written outside the profile's node_modules and the plugin's in-memory cache.

Desktop and Web

The Host half serves the panel over plain relative HTTP routes on whatever origin the page was loaded from, and the Client half registers through the shared slot system, so the same package works in the DeepSeek Harness desktop app and in the browser build of the Web GUI. No Electron-only API, no fixed port, no hard-coded localhost.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Fix
No sidebar entry after installing	Reload the page: the Client half (and therefore the icon) only loads with the page
Board says the providers could not fill it	Hit 「刷新」 once; the sources are rate-limited, not down
Some posters are missing	A CDN was unreachable for that title. It retries on the next refresh; the designed plate is intentional
Search finds nothing for a Chinese title	Douban throttles during a board build. Wait a few seconds and search again
ERR_PNPM_EPERM while installing	A running process holds a package directory. Quit the app, then install
