Add dsh-multica-runtime to DeepSeek Harness

via GitHub · GitHub source

Installing from GitHub runs the project's build script, which pnpm blocks until you allowlist it — run the command once and pnpm prints the exact key to add under `allowBuilds` in ~/.dsh/profiles/web/pnpm-workspace.yaml.

What happened when we ran it

Installed cleanly when we ran it

Every command here is run in a throwaway container against a clean profile, and the result is whatever the harness recorded — not a guess from the source. Last run 3d ago.

Due diligence

Before you install dsh-multica-runtime

  • Source of record: forrestchang/dsh-multica-runtime — present in the community registry that DSH's own plugin market installs from.
  • No licence file detected. Code without a licence is all-rights-reserved by default.
  • Detected: terminal surface. Read the source before granting these.
  • A listing here is not a security review. Plugins run with your agent's permissions.

The AI take

What it is — Private runtime bridge between Multica and DeepSeek Harness.

Who it is for — Developers needing DSH runtime integration in the Multica environment. For developers using standard DSH environments, this bridge serves no purpose.

Watch out — Sandbox test passed: installed in a new profile and registered with harness. The plugin executes shell commands.

The verdict — I would install it because it requires no changes to DeepSeek Harness.

Generated by grok-4.6, and a starting point rather than a verdict. Where it says a plugin installs or does not, that is from a real run in a clean profile — everything else is read off the repository. Trust the source over this.

What dsh-multica-runtime does

Abstract diagram of a runtime bridge sending events through a protocol channel into an isolated terminal.

dsh-multica-runtime is a DeepSeek Harness plugin that runs the DeepSeek Harness runtime through Multica. It provides a private, out-of-tree bridge over a versioned JSONL protocol on stdio, composing over @deepseek-ai/dsh-base rather than changing DeepSeek Harness. The runtime exposes --probe, --list-models and --stdio commands, and is discovered by Multica when --probe reports protocol version 1.

The plugin reads model and thinking-level information from DSH, then streams committed text, reasoning, tool, result and token-usage events back through the protocol. Multica supplies per-runtime or per-agent session roots; the bridge supports durable session resume, cooperative cancellation, and translates canonical MCP configuration into DSH stdio or streamable-HTTP clients. MULTICA_DSH_PATH can point to a non-standard DSH launcher. DEEPSEEK_API_KEY is read at runtime by the credential provider and must not be stored in the repository.

This is intended for agents that need to run DSH inside Multica without modifying the public runtime. It is a poor choice where interactive approvals are required: approvals are headless and there is no interactive question surface. The terminal surface reaches DSH’s credential-scrubbed shell; only Multica’s server-minted mat_ task token is forwarded so in-task multica commands retain task attribution.

dsh-multica-runtime documentation

Configuring dsh-multica-runtime

DeepSeek Harness loads the built plugin into the multica profile. The runtime can use a non-standard DeepSeek Harness launcher when MULTICA_DSH_PATH is set to an absolute path:

MULTICA_DSH_PATH=/absolute/path/to/dsh

The plugin reads DEEPSEEK_API_KEY through DeepSeek Harness’s credential provider at process runtime. Do not store this key in the repository. Multica supplies the per-runtime or per-agent session roots. Its canonical MCP configuration is translated into DSH clients using stdio or streamable HTTP.

Commands supported by dsh-multica-runtime

Run these commands with the multica profile:

Command Purpose
dsh --profile multica --probe Returns protocol version 1 for Multica discovery.
dsh --profile multica --list-models Lists models and thinking levels discovered from DSH.
dsh --profile multica --stdio Runs the versioned JSONL runtime protocol over standard input and output.

DeepSeek Harness must be installed in a location that the plugin can launch. For local development, the README validates the bundle with pnpm install, pnpm check and pnpm build; the checkout is currently validated against @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.0-rc.6 and its matching @deepseek-ai/dsh-* package family.

Runtime behaviour

The stdio channel is protocol-only: diagnostics go to stderr. The bridge emits committed text, reasoning, tool, result and token-usage events. It supports cooperative cancellation and durable session resume. Headless one-shot approvals are supported, but no interactive question surface is provided. DSH telemetry is disabled by the bundle patch.

Terminal and credential handling

The runtime can invoke DSH’s credential-scrubbed shell, which is the plugin’s terminal surface. It narrowly forwards Multica’s server-minted mat_ task token so in-task multica commands retain task attribution. Model-provider credentials are not forwarded through that mechanism. DEEPSEEK_API_KEY remains a process-runtime credential rather than repository data.

mirage

strukto-ai

3.5k

Swaps the filesystem and bash providers for a mirage virtual workspace: file tools and shell commands run over mounted resources (RAM, S3, Redis, Slack, Gmail, Notion, Postgres) instead of the host disk, with per-mount read/write/exec modes, per-command sandbox routing (monty, pyodide, quickjs in process; docker, e2b, daytona remote), and installed CLIs (git, gh, slack, linear, ntn, gws, or one you register) as head words in the virtual terminal.

No one-line install — this plugin lives inside a larger repository and publishes no npm package.

mirage

What it is — mirage provides a unified virtual filesystem for AI agents, allowing bash tools to operate across mounted resources.

Who it is for — It is suitable for AI agents that use bash tools and need to access multiple backends such as S3 and Slack at the same time. It is not suitable for agents that only run on local filesystems without remote mounted services.

Watch out — No obvious issues found. There is a static check prompt indicating it will execute shell commands. Sandbox testing was not performed.

The verdict — I would not install it because sandbox testing was not performed.

oh-dsh

What it is — DeepSeek Harness community distribution bundles TUI, desktop and Web UIs.

Who it is for — Developers needing to use DeepSeek Harness for local AI agent coding with workspace capabilities should install it. Users only relying on cloud model services without local tools can skip this.

Watch out — Source installation requires Node.js and build tools. Sandbox test passed, registered in new profile. No obvious issues found.

The verdict — I would install it because it unifies three interfaces for DeepSeek Harness local development, but the tradeoff is building from source.

forkprobe

What it is — forkprobe is an AI skill selection tool. It runs multiple skills in parallel on the same task, generates a local HTML report, and lets you choose the winner.

Who it is for — When you are unsure which skill fits the current task and want to review real outputs before deciding, forkprobe is suitable to install. People who do not need skill comparison for simple deterministic tasks do not need to install it, because the answer or tool path is already clear and direct execution is faster.

Watch out — Installing forkprobe from GitHub source requires manually allowing the build script. Sandbox testing passed: it installs in a fresh profile and registers into the profile via Harness. No obvious issues found.

The verdict — I would install it because it generates continuation handoff after selecting the winner and supports anonymous sharing of the choice.

plugin-registry

What it is — A thin browser console for managing DeepSeek Harness profile plugin installation states, plus a make-dsh-plugin skill for guided official plugin development.

Who it is for — When developing third-party DeepSeek Harness plugins or maintaining plugin lists inside profiles, this console displays installation states and supplies development guidelines. If you only run pre-built official plugins and never create new ones, you do not need to install it.

Watch out — It was successfully installed in a fresh profile and registered by Harness. No obvious issues were found, though the plugin-type comparison and gotchas section in the skill references should be reviewed before any development.

The verdict — I would install it for the development standards it supplies, but it is not essential if the only task is to run existing official plugins.

dsh-plugin-check

What it is — This is a zero-dependency read-only DeepSeek Harness plugin health check tool that scans plugin repositories and outputs compliance reports on manifest protocols, patch formats and build traps.

Who it is for — When you maintain multiple DeepSeek Harness plugin repositories in your organization and need regular checks on manifest protocols, patch formats and build traps, this tool fits your use case. If you only run a single plugin or your repository has already passed manual review, you do not need this tool.

Watch out — Sandbox testing passed: installed in a fresh profile and registered into harness. Static checks may mention executing shell commands but do not execute them. No other obvious issues found.

The verdict — I would install it because it provides automated compliance checks that reduce integration pitfalls in organizational plugin workflows, but only if installed via the profile bundle method.

dsh-user-experience

What it is — Scans React, TypeScript, JavaScript, and Vue 3 code to simulate user personas, detect UX issues, and provide concrete suggestions.

Who it is for — When developing a React application with DeepSeek Harness and needing UX simulation capabilities, this plugin is suitable. If your project uses Svelte or Vue 2 frameworks, you do not need to install this plugin, as it does not support analysis for those languages.

Watch out — Sandbox test passed successfully with installation and registration in a fresh profile and no obvious issues found. It can obtain browser evidence when rendered page support is available, but relies only on static evidence without browser environment.

The verdict — I would install it because it automatically runs the walkthrough after file edits and provides locatable UX optimization suggestions.
