dsh-doctor-windows

Windows environment diagnostics for DeepSeek Harness. The plugin adds a human-only /doctor-windows command, so it still works when the model provider is unavailable.

Checks

• Harness, Node.js, platform, and architecture versions.
• Whether the current workspace is readable and writable.
• UTF-16 low-byte-zero characters that affected preview versions of the native folder picker can truncate.
• Proxy variables and Node's NODE_USE_ENV_PROXY startup setting. Node added built-in environment-proxy support in 22.21.0 and 24.0.0.
• Discovery and real non-interactive startup of PowerShell 7 (pwsh) and Windows PowerShell.
• The Koffi installation owned by Harness's native folder picker, including one harmless GetCurrentProcessId call.

The command does not print proxy URLs or credential values, change settings, open a folder dialog, or make network requests.

Install from GitHub

Git dependencies run the package's prepare script. With pnpm 10 or newer, allow the exact package key in the profile's pnpm-workspace.yaml, then install a pinned commit:
