Under "On next message" folding, a Turn woken by a notice (settled subagent, goal round, schedule, background job) advanced the bottom Turn and folded the finished Turn without an own-input driver, so the generic fold room left a following reader looking at blank space. Chat Nodes now declare a group-tree position (`groupTree`, ordered `exchange` > `turn` > `process`). Human input claimed in Step 1 marks its Turn as opening an exchange; notices and later steering carry no position. `GroupTreeSegments` splits the loaded Turns at opening Turns, and `bottomSource` covers the whole latest exchange, so notice-woken Turns no longer fold earlier ones while the next human message folds the exchange through the own-input path. Only `exchange` is read today; the `turn` and `process` positions are reserved for the existing kind lists.
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.
Contributing
See CONTRIBUTING.md.
Development
Start with the development guide and architecture documentation.
pnpm run dev:web builds, serves, and rebuilds client bundles on source edits in one terminal, and make help lists the matching Make targets for Web and Desktop; the guide's application commands section owns the full table.
For agents, follow AGENTS.md.
