dsh-model

dsh-model

📅 Daily check-in credits claimed for you (Trae, Qoder, WorkBuddy, Doubao) · 🔁 one address that relays every model · 🧩 free and subscription models, your pick

Install once and all three are taken care of. dsh gets a management page; without dsh, the command line does everything.

📅 1. Daily check-in: credits land on their own

The most hands-off part: no more remembering to claim the daily check-in credits.

• Automatic by default: done at a random 5–55 minutes after midnight Beijing time; failures retry an hour later; if the computer was off, it catches up within a minute of starting.
• You can see it: one line at the top of the settings page, "Checked in today: …", with a one-click "Check in all" for anything missed, plus a one-time notice in the corner of dsh.
• What else this machine can do: the card lists the supported products not set up here yet, each with "+ Add".
• Move it to an always-on VPS: "Copy check-in accounts to another machine" gives an encrypted text and a code to import on the VPS page (Qoder and Doubao; sign in to WorkBuddy on the VPS itself, and Trae stays on the computer that has Trae).
• Several accounts: each product can have more than one. In the check-in card's Details: "+ Add a WorkBuddy account" (approve through a link) and "+ Add another Qoder account"; several Trae installs are checked in once per account automatically.
• Check-in only, credits untouched: they stay on your account for use in each product's own app. Command line: dsh-model checkin.

🔁 2. Relay: one address, one key, every model

Your model sources each have their own API and sign-in. dsh-model puts them behind one OpenAI-compatible address:

• Shows up in dsh: every model, grouped by source, with nothing to configure.
• Works in other tools: Cline, Continue, Cherry Studio, scripts: anything that speaks the OpenAI API uses the same address and key.
• Rate limits are not the end: build a combo (say Codex → Kimi → Gemini) and the next model takes over on a rate limit, used-up quota or error.
• Know where you stand: plan usage with reset countdowns, success rate and speed per model, recent failures with what to do, and a notice when quota runs low.
• Secure by default: a key is always required, one per device, revocable any time; every sign-in happens on your own machine.
• Laptop or server: Windows, macOS, Linux; on a VPS (with dsh-vps) it opens an https address you can use from anywhere. Uninstall restores dsh's config byte for byte.

🧩 3. Models: free or subscription, connect what you have

Every source is tagged Free / Free · limited / Paid; see Sources and cost below. dsh-model only connects; it provides no quota of its own.

WorkBuddy: since 2026-10 it recognises conversations sent by dsh and blocks them, so dsh-model uses it for check-in only and does not connect its models by default.

Quick start

npm install -g dsh-model
dsh-model setup

On a dsh-vps server, use sudo dsh-model setup. On Windows, run it in a normal PowerShell or Command Prompt; no administrator rights needed.

setup is safe to re-run. It:

1. downloads and verifies the engine and runs it on 127.0.0.1:8317/v1, with key auth enforced;
2. starts dsh-model's daemon (the management page, check-in and sign-ins run on it). Setup asks for no keys: for a free source we suggest SiliconFlow (reachable from China) or Gemini (if you can reach Google), added from the management page. WorkBuddy is used for check-in only; its models are not connected to dsh by default;
3. installs the management page into dsh and syncs the models into dsh;
4. on a VPS, also opens a public address https://<dsh's domain>:9443/v1 (or <IP>.sslip.io when there is no domain).

Manage it in dsh: Settings → dsh-model

If the service is not set up on this machine yet, the page says what is missing and offers a "Set up now" button with live progress. A "Getting started" guide appears on a fresh install; a banner shows when the plugin was updated but dsh not restarted (one-click restart on dsh-vps); a low-quota notice appears in the corner of any dsh page. so you can also start by installing dsh-model from the dsh plugin marketplace and finish from this page.

dsh-model does every sign-in itself. No provider CLI is installed and the server needs no browser:

• WorkBuddy, Codex, Kimi, Grok, Muse: open the link and approve; if a code is needed, the dialog shows it;
• Devin, Claude, Antigravity: these send the browser to a fixed local address that will not load. That is expected: bring the address back and press "Paste from clipboard".

If a source is signed in but has no usable plan (say, a Kimi account without Kimi Code), dsh-model detects it, hides its models in dsh and shows where to subscribe.

After updating dsh-model, restart dsh once so the management page picks up the new code. Model and switch changes need no restart.

Sources and cost

dsh-model only connects; it provides no quota of its own.

Commands

Every command accepts --lang zh|en and --json.

Architecture

dsh · editors · scripts ──Bearer key──▶ engine 127.0.0.1:8317/v1 (the only entry)
                                          │      ▲ VPS: Caddy https://<dsh domain>:9443
             ┌────────────────────────────┼─────────────────────────┐
             ▼                            ▼                         ▼
   subscription OAuth (Codex, Kimi…)   opencode/* (your key)   workbuddy/* → dsh-model's bridge

• The engine is CLIProxyAPI (MIT), version-pinned and sha256-verified. The WorkBuddy protocol layer is ported from dsh-workbuddy-connect (MIT); the usage endpoints follow CodexBar (MIT).
• dsh-model writes only two things into dsh: the model providers and refs.DSH_MODEL_API_KEY. On uninstall they are restored byte for byte if nobody changed them.

See the design doc (Chinese).

Notes

• Meant for personal use: one account of your own per provider; do not use it to serve others.
• Using subscription and WorkBuddy credentials outside the official clients may break the providers' terms and put the account at risk. Decide for yourself.
• Windows 10 / 11 (x64, ARM64), macOS and Linux, Node ≥ 20.
• Downloading the engine needs GitHub: setup uses the system proxy (Windows, macOS) or HTTPS_PROXY automatically; if it still cannot connect it says why, and you can pass --proxy <url> or download the file yourself and set DSH_MODEL_ENGINE_ARCHIVE.
• Windows: the background services start at sign-in with no window. If an antivirus blocks them (the program is gone or will not start), trust %USERPROFILE%\.dsh-model and run dsh-model repair.
