• 1024 store channel: npm i -g dsh1024 once, then dsh1024 plugin --profile web add dsh-fast (counts toward the deepseek1024.com install ranking).

Read-only performance diagnostics for DeepSeek Harness.

Observes the session event stream — never the model hot path — and reports where latency and context budget actually go.

Compatibility

• DeepSeek Harness dsh-v0.1.5-rc.2 (adapted 2026-09-09; public tag commit fb2c4b9e69): the system prompt is surface node 0 (a system/message) instead of a request-envelope field, so the report reads it from the surface and prices the meter's surface net of it. Verified 2026-09-11 with the published 0.1.5-rc.2 peers (full local gate chain); the monthly compat workflow re-runs the profile install smoke against the same pins.
• Node ^22.19.0 || >=24.0.0, ESM only ("type": "module").
• Peer dependencies: @deepseek-ai/cordis ^4.0.2, @deepseek-ai/schemastery ^3.18.2, and @deepseek-ai/dsh-session, @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools, @deepseek-ai/dsh-commands, @deepseek-ai/dsh-compaction, @deepseek-ai/dsh-storage-domain at >=0.1.2-rc.1 <0.2.0 || >=0.1.5-alpha.1 <0.2.0 (devDependencies pin 0.1.5-rc.2); the 0.1.2-rc.1 line stays supported at runtime through a structural fallback to the pre-0.1.5 header.system.

What you get

• Session load timing — publication-to-first-request latency, classified open (fresh) vs restore (seeded/resumed), plus the restored seed-event count.
• Spill-hit statistics — how many tool results were spilled to a session-scoped artifact (detected from the durable spill notice).
• Compaction count and trigger — total compactions, split manual (slash command) vs automatic (pressure), and total shadowed tokens.
• Context-injection volume — system-prompt (AGENTS.md + skills + persona), tool-schema, and surface tokens with their shares of the total; the surface bucket is conversation history only (the meter's surface includes the system node on 0.1.5-alpha.1, which dsh-fast subtracts).
• LLM cache hit rate — input / cache-read / cache-write / output tokens aggregated from provider usage, plus the derived hit rate.
• Optimization suggestions — threshold-driven notes (trim skills, tighten tool schemas, compact earlier, enable prompt caching, enable spill-policy, …).
• Async sampling — metrics are folded O(1) per event and snapshotted on a timer, never on the append path.

Quick start

git channel

# From a scratch profile (pins the commit; runs the self-contained `prepare` build)
dsh plugin --profile demo add "github:YOUR_ORG/dsh-fast#<sha>"
# The profile's pnpm-workspace.yaml gains an allowBuilds entry for dsh-fast on first add.

npm channel

dsh plugin --profile demo add dsh-fast

Both channels install the bundle row (see cordis.patch.yml) into the profile's dsh.profile.bundles stack and take effect on restart.

Install & uninstall

dsh plugin --profile demo add dsh-fast       # install
dsh plugin --profile demo remove dsh-fast    # uninstall

Verify the row mounts: dsh --profile demo --dump-config | grep dsh-fast.

Configuration

All tunables are Schemastery Config fields; invalid values fail the profile load loudly.

Key	Default	Description
enabled	true	Master switch; false mounts nothing.
privacy.includeCwd	false	Include the sanitized session working directory in reports.
sampling.snapshotIntervalMs	60000	How often active sessions are sampled (ms).
sampling.maxHistorySamples	20	Samples retained per session in the durable history.
thresholds.systemPromptTokens	20000	Warn when the system prompt exceeds this many tokens.
thresholds.toolSchemaTokens	8000	Warn when the tool schema exceeds this many tokens.
thresholds.surfaceTokens	60000	Warn when the conversation surface exceeds this many tokens.
thresholds.cacheHitRateFloor	0.1	Warn when the cache hit rate falls below this (0..1).
thresholds.compactionCountWarn	10	Warn once this many compactions have triggered.
thresholds.compactionShadowTokens	40000	Warn when the average shadowed token count per summary exceeds this.
spill.detectSpilledResults	true	Detect spilled tool results from the durable notice marker.

Tools & surfaces

• /fast — a human slash command that prints the current session's health report: load timing, spill, compaction, context-volume ranking, cache hit rate, and suggestions.
• fast_report — a model tool returning the same report as structured JSON (so the model can reason over it), with a human-readable text render.

Permissions & data

dsh-fast consumes only public seams: session/* and agent/* events, the optional ctx.tokenMeter, ctx.storageDomain, ctx.commands, and ctx.tools. It is strictly read-only over the session log — it never mutates the model request, tool results, or the session surface. Metrics are persisted to the dsh_fast storage domain (one bounded history per session), not to the session log. Report identity and the optional working directory are sanitized before any display or durable write.

Security boundaries

• Read-only, zero model-path overhead — folding is O(1) per event; sampling runs on a timer.
• No network, no credential handling — the plugin makes no outbound requests and stores nothing sensitive.
• Fail-loud configuration — every tunable is validated at mount; invalid bounds throw.
• Sanitized display/durable data — control characters are stripped and strings are budgeted; cwd is off by default and path-truncated when enabled.
• Reversible registrations — every contribution goes through ctx.effect() / ctx.on() / register(), so uninstall and hot reload are clean.

Known limitations

• Storage domain, not session events — rc.2 Session.append offers no ignorable marker and no external event-registration surface, so a custom fast/* session event would make the persistence coordinator refuse the log on restore. Metrics are therefore persisted to the storage domain; the raw events remain the reconstructable source of truth.
• Spill detection is heuristic — it reads the durable spill notice (Full … stored at:); no dedicated session event exists.
• System prompt is one bucket — AGENTS.md, skill directory, and persona are all part of the assembled system prompt; since 0.1.5-alpha.1 it is surface node 0 (a system/message) and carries no per-section token accounting, so they are reported together.
• Load timing starts at publication — the disk-read portion of a restore happens before session/created (owned by sessionPersistence) and is not observable from this plugin's allowed events; the reported duration is publication-to-first-request.

Contributors

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to dsh-fast:

• PerryLink — author and maintainer: designed and built the read-only diagnostics (session-load timing, spill-hit counts, compaction metrics, context-injection volume, LLM cache hit rate), the /fast command and fast_report tool, the dsh_fast storage domain, and the five-language documentation.
