The child-catalog README did not record the lasting missing-entry consequence under Known Limitations, and its validation wording implied that duplicate or unsupported descriptors had their discovery fields checked. The converter only checks those fields when exactly one supported own descriptor is available. Specify that distinction, retain creation-time checks for existing entries, and state that current V4 reads do not rescan children to repair an omitted entry. Document the first-descriptor composition reader and last-descriptor identity projection accurately: multiple own records violate the establishing provider's exactly-once rule, so the backfill policy does not choose between those consumer policies. This corrects the rationale without changing migration admission. Update the paired English/Chinese package docs and decision note together. Validation: doc-sync 41/41, full lint, and owner tests passed; production source, frozen generations, persistence schema, and recorded fixtures are unchanged.
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.
