deepseek-channel-octo

Bridge DeepSeek Harness (dsh) agents into Octo IM — a dsh agent becomes an Octo bot/teammate: send/receive messages, execute tasks, stream cards, and handle approvals.

Status: prototype. The Octo WebSocket channel MVP is live-verified (C2); config-driven multi-bot support is done (C3). Implementation follows the staged plan in docs/TODO.yaml.

Quick start

Connect an Octo bot to a dsh agent in three steps.

1. Install

npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.0-rc.6   # dsh CLI
npm install -g deepseek-channel-octo          # this package

2. Create a bot and configure it

Create a bot in the Octo admin console — you get a Bot ID and a Bot Token (bf_ prefix).

Copy the config template and fill in your credentials:

cp octo.config.example.yaml octo.config.yaml

# octo.config.yaml
apiUrl: https://your-octo-server.example/api
bots:
  - name: my-bot
    botUid: xxxxxxxxxxxxx_bot
    botToken: bf_your_bot_token_here

Add one entry per bot under bots to connect multiple bots — each gets its own WebSocket connection and shares the same dsh harness. octo.config.yaml is git-ignored (it contains secrets); the path can be overridden with OCTO_CONFIG.

No config file? Legacy env vars are used as fallback: OCTO_API_URL / OCTO_BOT_TOKEN / OCTO_BOT_UID.

3. Run

dsh-octo-bot octo run

Add the bot to a group and @mention it — the agent replies with the dsh answer. Each group maps to its own dsh session (octo:<accountId>:<chatId>), so the bot remembers the conversation per group (restart-safe).

Workflow (Rondo method)

This repository runs a PRD-driven, agent-constrained workflow. Read these files before touching anything:
