About this project
DSH Desktop is an independent community open-source project that provides a native desktop client for Windows and macOS for DeepSeek Harness (DSH). It pins and runs a specific upstream version as-is, integrating the local Web UI, Host service, and plugin system into a desktop application, so users can use it without installing Node.js or executing commands.
Main features include: automatically starting and managing the local Harness service, with integrated system tray and desktop window; a built-in DSH Community Market plugin marketplace supporting plugin discovery, details, installation, and management; iOS and Android mobile remote control, allowing tasks to be initiated and Agent progress to be viewed on a phone; and a native Setup Wizard on first launch for configuring window mode, plugin marketplace, notifications, browser opening method, and Web access scope.
The project emphasizes the concept of "everything is a plugin," and the desktop shell itself is also integrated as a DSH plugin, using the same composition mechanism as third-party plugins. The Web service listens only on the local loopback address by default; LAN access is an optional setting and does not provide authentication. Automatic update requests carry the version, channel, and a randomly generated installation identifier.
The project uses the MIT license and provides documentation including a user guide, FAQ, privacy policy, plugin development guide, and architecture description. The development environment uses Yarn, and the pinned-version deepseek-harness submodule uses a pnpm workspace. The project explicitly states that it has no affiliation, cooperation, authorization, or endorsement relationship with DeepSeek.
