Review fix (ds-review-bot on #623): the unconditional slice regressed the public SessionStore.fork path — a generic fork child gets seedLength but no policy baseline, so slicing discarded its seed-carried sandbox/approval switches and silently widened it to the deployment defaults (a forked read-only/never parent produced a workspace-write/ask child). overrideOf now branches on baseline presence: with a header baseline (a delegation child) the fold covers only own post-seed switches — the baseline captured from the parent's FULL log subsumes seed history; without one, the whole log — seeded switches ARE the replayed inherited truth. The permission preset fold scopes the same way. Red-first: generic-fork seed-carried override tests in both policy suites.
DeepSeek Harness
English | 中文
DeepSeek Harness (dsh) is an open-source coding agent built on the DeepSeek Harness SDK.
It uses an architecture where everything is a plugin.
Install
Install dsh with one command:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/deepseek-harness/deepseek-harness/master/scripts/install.sh | sh
The installer requires git and Node ^22.19 || >=24, offers to install pnpm when it is missing, and prompts for a DeepSeek API key.
The installer clones DeepSeek Harness to ~/.dsh/source, links dsh into ~/.local/bin, and launches it. Re-running the command updates the checkout. See scripts/install.sh for alternate install locations and other options.
Use DeepSeek Harness
Web UI
For the recommended local interface, build the frontend after installation and after each update, then start the Web UI:
pnpm --dir ~/.dsh/source run build && pnpm --dir ~/.dsh/source run build:web
dsh web
The Web UI is served at http://127.0.0.1:3080 by default.
TUI
Start the full-screen terminal interface:
dsh
Headless
Run one task, print the final answer, and exit:
dsh -p "summarize this workspace"
Why DeepSeek Harness
Built-in capabilities cover file reading, editing, and search; shell execution; reusable skills; task tracking; subagents and workflows; persistent sessions; and context compaction. The TUI also includes Plan Mode.
- Everything is a plugin. Models, tools, policies, storage, context management, and interfaces are composable Cordis plugins, so deployments can extend or replace behavior without forking the agent loop. See the architecture for the underlying design.
- Code Mode (opt-in). It exposes a
run_codetool and a generated TypeScript SDK; only program output re-enters model context. See Code Mode. - Self-referential Cordis tools are opt-in. They let the agent inspect its live runtime and mount or unmount plugins while it runs. See the Cordis tools.
