DeepSeek Harness Plugin

z-imagine/dsh-free-light-search

Category Tools & Capabilities Added 2026-11-10

Lightweight fork of DDDMUC/dsh-free-search: multi-engine web search and fetch with automatic fallback, failure cooldown and API key rotation; takes over DSH's default web_search/web_fetch providers. Cannot be installed alongside DDDMUC/dsh-free-search (same package name and bundle row).

Install

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

dsh plugin --profile web add github:z-imagine/dsh-free-light-search

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).

设计理念

与抓取型搜索插件不同,本插件专注于纯 AI 搜索 API:调用搜索引擎的结构化 API,返回标题、链接和摘要,不做网页抓取、正文提取或扩展搜索。轻量、快速、低成本。

核心特点

  • 纯 AI 搜索:调用搜索引擎 API,返回结构化结果,不做抓取或正文提取
  • 免费优先:所有引擎都有免费额度,无 API key 也能用(匿名额度)
  • 自动回退:任何引擎失败自动切换下一个,搜索永不中断
  • 失败冷却:按失败类别冷却引擎,避免反复撞墙
  • 网页设置页:引擎切换、API key 配置、一键测试、引擎开关

引擎列表

本插件只保留有免费额度的 AI 搜索引擎,按额度模型分层:

档位 引擎 说明
① 无限免费 ddg / ddg-lite / bing / searxng / anysearch HTML 抓取型搜索,无限免费
② 匿名额度 exa / tavily / firecrawl / you 无需 key 即可使用,配 key 提升额度
③ 免费额度 baidu / jina 需 key,有免费额度
引擎详情
ID 引擎 免费额度 说明
ddg DuckDuckGo HTML 无限 偶发限流,自动恢复
ddg-lite DuckDuckGo Lite 无限 轻量版
bing Bing 无限 免 key,中文优化
searxng SearXNG 元搜索 无限 多实例自动切换
anysearch AnySearch AI 无限 AI 搜索,匿名额度
exa Exa 1000 次/月 AI 搜索,质量高
tavily Tavily 1000 次/月 专为 AI agent 设计
firecrawl Firecrawl 500 页面/月 网页抓取 + 搜索
you You.com 1000 次/月 You.com AI 搜索
baidu 百度 AI 搜索 每日 50 次 中文全网
jina Jina AI 有免费额度 搜索 + 摘要

安装

git clone https://github.com/z-imagine/dsh-free-light-search.git
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-free-light-search
dsh web

使用

网页设置

安装后打开配置页:左侧 插件 页 → 已安装 分组 → free-search → 配置入口。

配置页提供:

  • Search engine:下拉框切换引擎
  • API keys:为付费引擎填写 key(Exa / Tavily / Firecrawl / You.com / SerpBase / Serply / Baidu / Jina)
  • Test engine:测试当前引擎可用性
  • 引擎开关:启用/禁用引擎,调整回退优先级
聊天框切换引擎

输入 /free-search-engine,弹出引擎选择窗口,点选即切换。

回退链

默认回退顺序:exa → tavily → firecrawl → serpbase → serply → you → baidu → jina → bing → anysearch → ddg → ddg-lite → searxng

任何引擎失败(限流、反爬、缺 key、网络错误)自动尝试下一个。

失败分类与冷却

  • quota(额度耗尽):冷却到会话结束
  • auth(key 无效):冷却到会话结束
  • bot-wall(反爬):冷却 60s
  • transient(超时/5xx/限流):重试一次再回退
  • invalid-response(解析失败):不冷却,直接回退

配置文件示例

- id: web
  config:
    searchProvider: ddg
    fetchProvider: fs-quality-fetch

Design Philosophy

Unlike scraping-based search plugins, this plugin focuses on pure AI search APIs: calling structured search APIs to return titles, links, and snippets, without web scraping, content extraction, or extended search. Lightweight, fast, and low-cost.

Key Features

  • Pure AI Search: Call search engine APIs, return structured results, no scraping
  • Free First: All engines have free tiers, usable without API keys (anonymous tiers)
  • Auto Fallback: Automatically switch to next engine on failure, search never stops
  • Failure Cooling: Cool down engines by failure category, avoid repeated failures
  • Web Settings: Engine switching, API key configuration, one-click testing

Engine List

Only AI search engines with free tiers are included, categorized by quota model:

Tier Engines Description
① Unlimited Free ddg / ddg-lite / bing / searxng / anysearch HTML scraping search, unlimited free
② Anonymous Quota exa / tavily / firecrawl / you No key required, key increases quota
③ Free Quota baidu / jina Key required, has free quota
Engine Details
ID Engine Free Tier Description
ddg DuckDuckGo HTML Unlimited Occasional rate limiting
ddg-lite DuckDuckGo Lite Unlimited Lightweight version
bing Bing Unlimited No key, Chinese optimized
searxng SearXNG Meta Search Unlimited Multi-instance auto-switch
anysearch AnySearch AI Unlimited AI search, anonymous quota
exa Exa 1000 queries/month High-quality AI search
tavily Tavily 1000 queries/month Designed for AI agents
firecrawl Firecrawl 500 pages/month Web scraping + search
you You.com 1000 queries/month You.com AI search
baidu Baidu AI Search 50 queries/day Chinese web search
jina Jina AI Free tier available Search + summarization

Installation

git clone https://github.com/z-imagine/dsh-free-light-search.git
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-free-light-search
dsh web

Usage

Web Settings

Open the config page: Left sidebar Plugins → Installed → free-search → Config entry.

The config page provides:

  • Search engine: Dropdown to switch engines
  • API keys: Enter keys for paid engines
  • Test engine: Test current engine availability
  • Engine switches: Enable/disable engines, adjust fallback priority
Chat Command Switching

Type /free-search-engine to open the engine selection popup.

Fallback Chain

Default fallback order: exa → tavily → firecrawl → serpbase → serply → you → baidu → jina → bing → anysearch → ddg → ddg-lite → searxng

Any engine failure (rate limit, bot wall, missing key, network error) automatically tries the next engine.

Failure Classification & Cooling

  • quota (quota exhausted): Cool down until session ends
  • auth (invalid key): Cool down until session ends
  • bot-wall (anti-bot): Cool down 60s
  • transient (timeout/5xx/rate limit): Retry once then fallback
  • invalid-response (parse failure): No cooldown, direct fallback

Config File Example

- id: web
  config:
    searchProvider: ddg
    fetchProvider: fs-quality-fetch
