Capability tags are AI-inferred or rule-extracted from the README (see badge) — vocabulary-limited, not install-verified. AI = inferred; README = literal keyword from the readme.

Installation

GitHub repository

Ecosystem apps are not installable via dsh plugin add: desktop / web shells install or deploy through their own release channel (GitHub Releases or the project site).

The level reads L5 · Ecosystem plugin / L5 · Ecosystem app per the three-way classification (the L1-L5 ladder does not rate them); the security scan still runs.

Trends

Four lines, four questions: total stars, stars gained this week, cumulative downloads, downloads this week. The GitHub pair comes from real-read sampling — a rotating daily shard, so one plugin is re-read roughly every 5–14 days, sparser than npm; the npm pair has a value on every snapshot day. The two cumulative panels are smoothed curves with no sample markers; the two weekly panels keep their raw bars and add a 4-week moving-average trend line that strips single-week noise down to the direction of travel.

Verification & Compatibility◼ Ecosystem app

Grouped by plugin version: each card lists the dsh versions actually tested against that artifact version and their install verdicts (L5 wins). Untested combinations are omitted — absence means untested, never assumed compatible. L1–L3 are a plugin-level static archive (independent of the dsh version — the same verdict on every dsh row): they sit in each row's level grid next to L4/L5, marked "static", while their evidence is stored once per plugin inside that row's "checks & evidence" instead of being duplicated per version.

Security Report

Two automated layers, neither a manual review: a static scan (per-plugin rule checks) and a model-driven dynamic security audit that covers only the subset static-flagged at warn or above and never executes plugin code.

  • mediumSilently force-kills any process listening on port 3080electron/main.js:537

    On every startup the shell probes port 3080; because checkHttp(..., false) returns true for ANY HTTP response, any local service that answers on 3080 with a non-2xx code (401/403/404/500) is killed automatically with taskkill /T /F, without asking the user (the confirmation dialog is only shown on the 2xx path). A user's unrelated local server on 3080 can be terminated and its child process tree destroyed.

  • lowwindow.open URLs: prefix-based host check and unvalidated scheme passed to shell.openExternalelectron/main.js:502

    The local-only intent is checked with startsWith, so a lookalike host such as http://127.0.0.1.evil.com is allowed to open as an in-app window (which inherits the parent's preload bridge exposing openExternal/check-updates/quit-install), and every non-matching URL of ANY scheme (file:, custom protocol handlers, etc.) is handed to the OS via shell.openExternal. The IPC path app:open-external does validate with /^https?:\/\//i, so the two paths are inconsistent.

  • lowdsh session access token persisted in plaintext boot.logelectron/main.js:459

    serverUrl contains the one-time authentication token (?token=...) that the comment on line 19-20 explicitly describes as required to access the dsh web UI. It is appended in cleartext to %APPDATA%/<app>/logs/boot.log and also forwarded to the renderer via sendLog, so the credential survives after the process exits and can be read by any local process or backup/sync tool with access to the profile.

  • lowGeneric update channel accepts plaintext http:// with auto-download and auto-install enabledelectron/main.js:676

    The generic/custom-url feed is only required to start with http:// or https://, and the updater then auto-downloads and installs on quit. If the (not harvested) updater.config.json points at an http:// endpoint, a network attacker could serve a forged latest.yml plus installer and get it installed. No update-signature/publisher verification is visible in the main-process code.

  • lowBuild script assembles a shell command from environment variables with shell:truescripts/setup-runtime.js:32

    DSH_VERSION and DSH_NPM_REGISTRY are interpolated into a command executed with shell:true, so shell metacharacters in those variables (or in a .env/dotenv-style dev setup) execute arbitrary commands on the developer/build machine. Impact is limited: the script is build-time only and is not part of build.files / the shipped installer.

Electron shell for dsh: no backdoor or hardcoded secrets, but it silently force-kills any process on port 3080, logs the session token, and hands unvalidated URLs to shell.openExternal.

Rule (2026-10-28): when a dynamic conclusion exists it is authoritative (it may raise or lower the level); the static scan tier (vet primary, dsh backstop) applies only when there is none (not queued / audit failed / withdrawn). The audit never writes the exemption list (exemptions are manual only); a wrong conclusion is withdrawn by human review and the tier falls back to the static scan tier.

Disclaimer: the static scan and the dynamic security audit are both automated analysis, not a security guarantee. Always review what you install.

Frequently asked questions

What is deepseek-harness-desktop?

deepseek-harness-desktop is an ecosystem app listed on dsh.so, not a DSH plugin package: it cannot be installed with dsh plugin add and ships through the project's own release channel.

Is dsh.so or this plugin page official?

dsh.so is an independent community registry and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by DeepSeek AI.

How do I install deepseek-harness-desktop?

This is an ecosystem app, not a plugin installable via dsh plugin add: desktop / web shells install or deploy through their own release channel. The security scan still runs, but the L1-L5 plugin install ladder does not rate it.

How does the security scan relate to a manual audit?

Both layers are automated, not a manual audit. The static scan is heuristic analysis of the repository source, so it can produce false positives and miss context. The model-driven dynamic security audit only covers plugins static-flagged at warn or above, never executes plugin code, and its conclusion is authoritative when there is one (it may raise or lower the static tier); exemptions stay manual. Neither layer is an endorsement: review the repository and the permissions it asks for before installing, together with the verification level and health signals.

How fresh is the data on this page?

The data on this page is as of 2026-11-14 (UTC) — the most recent valid timestamp among the registry refresh, install verification, security scan and dynamic audit. Build time is never used as a data date.
