dsh-plugin-installer

A plugin store + install assistant for DeepSeek Harness (dsh): browse the plugin catalog in the Web GUI, confirm an install with one click, and let the agent finish it for you.

English · 简体中文

Overview

dsh-plugin-installer is a dual-face plugin for dsh. One package provides two things:

• Plugin store: a 「插件商店」 tab in the Web GUI session view ring — browse and search the plugin catalog (name / description / original link / stars); clicking 安装 asks for confirmation first, then submits the install request.
• Install assistant skill: a bundled skill the agent follows to complete an install — verify the source, pick the install path, register into the profile, verify the result. Every step is explainable and reversible.

Who it is for: anyone who wants to discover and install dsh plugins from the UI; developers who want the agent to handle installation and troubleshooting reliably.

Compatibility

Item	Support
dsh ecosystem	0.1.0-rc.6 (last verified 2026-08)
OS	Windows / macOS / Linux
Node	≥ 22.19
Surface	Web GUI (dsh --profile web); non-GUI profiles should use Route B (skill only)

Install / Uninstall

Install

Route A — full plugin (store tab + skill), once published to npm:

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-plugin-installer

Local development via link:

// ~/.dsh/profiles/web/package.json
{
  "dependencies": { "dsh-plugin-installer": "link:<repo path>" },
  "dsh": { "profile": { "bundles": ["dsh-plugin-installer"] } }
}

cd ~/.dsh/profiles/web && pnpm install

Route B — skill only (filesystem discovery, no store UI):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/zhang66633/dsh-plugin-installer ~/.dsh/skills/dsh-plugin-installer

Upgrade

• Route A: re-run dsh plugin add (pin the version); for local links, git pull and rebuild.
• Route B: git pull.

Disable

Remove dsh-plugin-installer from dsh.profile.bundles (the dependency may stay).

Uninstall

Remove the dependency and the bundle entry from the profile package.json, then pnpm install; for Route B, delete ~/.dsh/skills/dsh-plugin-installer.

Quick start

• Install, then restart dsh web.
• Open any session — the plugin store tab appears in the view ring (next to chat/trajectory).
• Search for a plugin (e.g. vision), click 安装, confirm the prompt, and the current session's agent takes over the install.
• Restart dsh web after the install completes.

Minimal reproducible example: search modlens → click install → confirm → the agent reports success → restart → send an image to test OCR.

Configuration

• Store data: data/store.json is a catalog snapshot (name / description / original link / category / stars) shipped with the package; no network fetch at runtime. Refresh = rebuild the snapshot and reinstall.
• Install request: clicking 安装 only POSTs a JSON request (plugin name + session id) to the local /plugin-store/install route; the actual install is performed by the current session's agent.
• No other config, no environment variables, no secrets.

Permissions & data

• Host process: read-only access to the bundled data/store.json; the catalog and install routes bind to the local web server only.
• After an install is triggered, the agent runs the install commands (it may read/write your dsh profile and plugin directories, and reach npm / GitHub) — every step is visible and can be stopped.
• No telemetry, no analytics, no credential access.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Action
Store tab missing	Confirm dsh.profile.bundles includes dsh-plugin-installer; check dsh --profile web --dump-config; restart
安装 does nothing	Confirm the session has a live agent; check the /plugin-store/install response in the browser console
Rollback	Remove the bundle entry and run pnpm install — the rest of the profile is untouched

Development

npm install          # build tooling (esbuild)
npm run build        # build lib/client.js (client wire bundle)
npm run check        # script syntax/standards checks
npm test             # unit tests
npm run smoke        # smoke: load lib/index.js and print name/inject

Store snapshot refresh: update data/store.json, rebuild, and reinstall. Pull requests welcome; keep README and tests in sync with behavior changes.
