The web task list gains a two-press stop control on running job rows, built on
one seam change: JobRegistry.kill now takes { reason?, reported? } instead of a
positional reason. reported defaults to true (the model's job_kill claims the
terminal report exactly as before); the web path passes reported: false because
a human kill has no model-visible channel, so the settlement flows through the
existing tool-jobs completion notice (wakeup/inject, budgets, truncation all
unchanged). A recorded kill reason merges into a killed settlement's detail
(producer facts first: 'signal: SIGTERM; cancelled by the user'), so the notice
and the web row both say who stopped the work.
- session-controller: session.killJob Remote beside cancel, live-only Agent
lookup, job-not-found/jobs-unavailable rejections joined to the closed RPC
error table; ClientSession.killJob and the ISession face carry it to the UI.
- ui-activity: arm/confirm stop button (3s disarm, pending disable, failure
hint), rendered only on running job rows; standalone activities keep no kill
handle and the README limitation now says so.
- The background-job-list web e2e now drives the whole human path through the
button; goldens show the merged killed detail end to end.
- Agent Note 2026-08-26-human-job-kill records the decision against Kimi's
suppress-own-notification precedent and Claude Code's silent-kill failure;
the 2026-08-08 blocker note and the unified-task-list note point at it.
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
dsh-plugintopic to your plugin repository for discoverability. - Join DeepSeek Harness Discord community.
