DeepSeek Harness (dsh) is an open-source agent harness developed by DeepSeek AI.

It is built on an everything-is-a-plugin architecture and powered by Cordis, whose design is described in A Programming Paradigm for Spatiotemporal Composability.

Documentation: https://deepseek-harness.github.io/deepseek-harness/

Added on top of upstream — this repository adds two capabilities you won't find in stock DeepSeek Harness: a token-usage dashboard and session-attention reminders.

Added features

This repository adds two capabilities on top of the upstream DeepSeek Harness.

Token usage dashboard

@deepseek-ai/dsh-token-usage persists provider-reported usage for every model call into a SQLite-backed store and aggregates it into daily summaries per (provider, model) — tokens split into uncached input, cache read, cache write, and output, plus TTFT and wall-time averages. The built-in web dashboard (packages/bundle/token-usage-dashboard) surfaces these as cross-session statistics in the Web GUI. See the token-usage subsystem doc.

Session attention reminders

When a background session awaits the user — a pending interaction (approval / plan review / question) or a finished AI reply not yet opened — a floating overlay appears in the top-right of the Web GUI. It tags the tab title (N) and plays one of four distinct Canvas2D animations keyed by the highest-priority attention kind, so you can tell at a glance what kind of reminder is owed. The plugin is developed in the standalone dsh-session-attention repository; see the community plugins guide for installation.

Developer preview

DeepSeek Harness is in developer preview and iterating rapidly. THERE WILL BE COMPATIBILITY-BREAKING CHANGES.

Review the safety notice before running the project.

Run

Run from npm

Install Node.js, then run:

npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web

The command starts the Web UI at http://127.0.0.1:3080 by default and opens it in the default browser for a local launch. An SSH launch only prints the host URL because the SSH client or editor owns the local forwarded address. Pass --no-open to run the server without opening a browser. See Web UI guide.

Run from source

To run from a repository checkout:

git clone https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness.git
cd deepseek-harness
pnpm install
pnpm run build
pnpm dsh web

pnpm run build prepares the repository artifacts. pnpm dsh web uses those built artifacts without rebuilding.

Community and support

• Submit feedback or bug reports through GitHub Discussions.
• Add the dsh-plugin topic to your plugin repository for discoverability.
• Join DeepSeek Harness Discord community.

Contributing

See CONTRIBUTING.md.

Development

Start with the development guide and architecture documentation.

pnpm run dev:web builds, serves, and rebuilds client bundles on source edits in one terminal, and make help lists the matching Make targets for Web and Desktop; the guide's application commands section owns the full table.

For agents, follow AGENTS.md.
