Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DSH plugin?

A DSH (DeepSeek Harness) plugin extends the harness with new tools, commands, or MCP integrations. It is declared through a dsh.bundle field in the plugin’s package.json.

How do I install a DSH plugin safely?

Install only A- and B-grade plugins listed on the Hub, review the install script for any remote-code execution, and run in a sandboxed or local environment first.

Do I need coding experience to build a DSH plugin?

No. The beginner tutorial walks you through writing your first apply(ctx, config) without requiring deep prior experience.

How do I publish a DSH plugin?

Package your plugin, add a dsh.bundle declaration, push it to the dsh-plugin topic, and submit it for independent quality scoring.
