DeepSeek Harness
English | 中文
DeepSeek Harness (dsh) is an open-source coding agent built on the DeepSeek Harness SDK.
It uses an architecture where everything is a plugin.
Internal testing notice
感谢您愿意拨冗试用 DeepSeek Harness。当前版本仍处于内部测试阶段，功能仍待完善，体验难免有些粗糙。
“如切如磋，如琢如磨。” 产品的成长，离不开一次次真实的碰撞与坦诚的反馈。您在真实使用中发现的问题，也可能促使我们重新审视，甚至推翻已有的设计。
为了帮助我们更准确地还原您真实使用中的问题，内测版本默认会上传所有 Session Log；如需关闭，可以设置环境变量 DSH_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1。另外，如果您有任何反馈与建议，请在企业微信群中留言告诉我们。每一条反馈，都会帮助我们把它打磨得更好。
Install
Clone the repository, then run the installer:
git clone <repo-url>
cd deepseek-harness
scripts/install.sh
The installer requires git and Node ^22.19 || >=24, offers to install pnpm when it is missing, prompts for a DeepSeek API key, builds the required repository artifacts, and launches the Web UI.
The installer keeps every checkout under ~/.dsh/source: the master clone at ~/.dsh/source/master and each install's staging checkout as a git worktree ~/.dsh/source/staging-<timestamp>. The stable symlink ~/.dsh/source/current points at the active staging worktree, and dsh in ~/.local/bin links to current/bin/dsh, so an upgrade repoints one symlink and the dsh on PATH never moves. Re-running the command adds a fresh staging worktree from an updated master and repoints current at it. See scripts/install.sh for alternate install locations and other options.
Use DeepSeek Harness
Web UI
For the recommended local interface, choose Web UI when the installer finishes. To start it later, or after updating the active checkout, build the repository and run:
(cd ~/.dsh/source/current && pnpm run build)
dsh web
The path above is the installer's default. If you set DSH_SOURCE or DSH_CURRENT, or reused an existing checkout, replace ~/.dsh/source/current with that checkout path; see scripts/install.sh for details. The Web UI is served at http://127.0.0.1:3080 by default.
Configured runtime
Raw dsh requires a patch-list configuration applied over the shipped base:
dsh --config ./app.cordis.yml
The CLI contract describes the base, overlay semantics, and config dump commands.
Headless
Run one task, print the final answer, and exit:
dsh -p "summarize this workspace"
Automation and SDKs
From a source checkout with DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the environment or its root .env, start the ACP automation server:
pnpm run demo:acp
The Python SDK drives a bundled JSON-RPC runtime. The examples cover the runnable headless, ACP, JSON-RPC, Code Mode, and self-referential compositions.
Why DeepSeek Harness
Built-in capabilities cover file reading, editing, and search; shell and persistent PTY execution; reusable skills; task tracking, goals, plans, todos, and background tasks; subagents and workflows; sandboxing and approvals; settings and credentials; persistent, resumable, forkable, and queryable sessions; LSP and web access; context compaction; and telemetry. Each composition selects the subset appropriate to its surface. The Web UI includes Plan Mode.
- Everything is a plugin. Models, tools, policies, storage, context management, and interfaces are composable Cordis plugins, so deployments can extend or replace behavior without forking the agent loop. See the architecture for the underlying design.
- Runs are reconstructable. Anything visible to the model is logged in the authoritative session stream; persistence, resume/fork/query, replay, telemetry, and UIs derive from the same events. See the session-log architecture.
- Code Mode (opt-in). It exposes a
run_codetool and a generated TypeScript SDK; only program output re-enters model context. See Code Mode. - Self-referential Cordis tools are opt-in. They let the agent inspect its live runtime and mount or unmount plugins while it runs. See the Cordis tools.
