dsh-her-eyes

English | 中文

A Vision-Language-Model (VLM) analyzer plugin for DeepSeek Harness (dsh). It gives the AI an analyze_image tool backed by primary/backup OpenAI-compatible vision endpoints with automatic failover, and adds an auto-saving Settings → Vision Models (VLM) page (English/中文).

Features

• analyze_image tool registered on the global tools registry — available in every session.
• Primary / backup VLM APIs — OpenAI-compatible endpoint + apiKey + model; if the primary fails consecutively beyond the retry count, the AI automatically falls back to the backup.
• Auto-saving settings page — every edit saves and takes effect immediately; no Save button. Also lets you fetch the model list from the endpoint.
• Web routes /vlm/config, /vlm/models, /vlm/reset served by the host half.
• i18n — the settings page follows the harness UI language (English / 中文).

Requirements

• dsh CLI (DeepSeek Harness) with a web profile installed. Requires pnpm on PATH (or use npx --yes pnpm@<version>).

Install

The plugin is a bundle: it carries its own cordis.patch.yml and self-activates. Installing it is a single command — no manual patch editing in the profile.

# From a local directory
dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-her-eyes

# From GitHub
dsh plugin --profile web add github:huashenglian/dsh-her-eyes

# From a packed tarball (pnpm pack / npm pack)
dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-her-eyes-1.2.0.tgz

dsh plugin add installs the dependency and appends the bundle to dsh.profile.bundles automatically.

If pnpm is not on PATH, run the equivalent manually:

# in the profile directory (~/.dsh/profiles/web)
npx --yes pnpm@11.7.0 add file:./plugins/dsh-her-eyes

then add "dsh-her-eyes" to the dsh.profile.bundles array in package.json.

Manual placement (alternative)

1. Put the package under $DSH_HOME/profiles/web/plugins/dsh-her-eyes/.
2. Add "dsh-her-eyes": "file:./plugins/dsh-her-eyes" to the profile package.json dependencies.
3. Add "dsh-her-eyes" to the profile dsh.profile.bundles array.
4. Run pnpm install (or npx --yes pnpm@11.7.0 install), then restart dsh web.

Do not add a manual - insert: - id: her-eyes row to the profile cordis.patch.yml — the bundle already inserts it. A second insert would throw duplicate loader entry id: her-eyes at boot.

Configure

All configuration lives in one JSON file: $DSH_HOME/vlm-vision.json (default ~/.dsh/vlm-vision.json).

{
  "retryCount": 5,
  "api": {
    "primary": { "endpoint": "https://api.openai.com/v1", "apiKey": "sk-...", "model": "gpt-4o" },
    "backup":  { "endpoint": "", "apiKey": "", "model": "" }
  }
}

• endpoint — OpenAI-compatible base (e.g. https://api.openai.com/v1) or the full …/chat/completions URL.
• apiKey — leave the key empty in the file; it is saved via the settings page and stored masked.
• retryCount — after this many consecutive failures of one API, the active API switches (primary ⇄ backup).

You can edit the file directly, or use the settings page (all edits auto-save).

How it works

The package is dual-face:

• Host half (lib/index.js) — a cordis plugin. Registers the analyze_image tool on the global tools registry and the /vlm/config|models|reset routes on the web server. Loads and persists vlm-vision.json.
• Client half (lib/client.js) — the browser module, loaded via __ModuleLoader__ because the package declares dsh.client. Registers a Settings → Vision Models (VLM) section (list slot settings.section, id vlm-vision, order 40) and the locale namespace settings.her-eyes.

The bundle cordis.patch.yml inserts the her-eyes entry that activates both halves.

Coexistence with other plugins

This plugin is built to play nicely with other frontend plugins that touch the settings window:

The harness itself enforces uniqueness (duplicate loader ids, slot ids, tool names, or routes throw and fail loudly) — so two plugins never silently shadow each other.

Uninstall

dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-her-eyes

This removes the dependency and the bundle entry. Your vlm-vision.json config file is left untouched.
