Add a benchmark lane (`vitest.bench.config.ts`, `pnpm run test:bench`, gate mode `ci-bench`) and a required `node 24 / benchmarks` CI job that runs it alone. Benchmarks synthesize their input in-process from fixed parameters and fail on documented budgets: - `open-generation.bench.ts`: a 200-turn released-v0 log with 500 text and 125 reasoning deltas per reply (127,400 events, ~2.8 MB) encoded through the frozen v0 codec; the migrating first `open()` must finish within 2,000 ms in a child process capped at 128 MB of old space, and a fresh process must open the published current generation within 500 ms. - `conversation-fold.bench.client.ts`: 200 replies whose compact streams hold 2,000 text + 500 reasoning deltas each, folded through every Chat Definition by the real assembler; the fold must finish within 150 ms and stay within 3x the fold of the same window with 100 deltas per reply. On this commit both gates fail: the migration exhausts the 128 MB heap (4.8 s and 696 MB peak RSS without the cap; the pre-stack decode of the same bytes took 34 ms and 168 MB) and the fold scales 11x with the delta count. The stacked fixes bring both paths to O(records).
DeepSeek Harness
English | 中文
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/
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
