What it is — This plugin adds a microphone button to the right of the chat input box in DeepSeek Harness Web UI, driving local VocoType offline speech recognition and automatically inserting recognized text into the input box.
Who it is for — Users who frequently need to input Chinese text via voice into the chat interface in DeepSeek Harness Web UI are suitable for installing this plugin. Those who mainly input in desktop applications or do not rely on real-time speech functions can use other input methods.
Watch out — Installation requires placing the plugin in the profile packages directory and running pnpm add file:, then adding a mount line in cordis.patch.yml and restarting the interface. The first run of VocoType requires downloading approximately 25MB of installer and 1.6GB of model files. It was tested to register normally in a fresh profile.
The verdict — If you need offline Chinese speech input in DeepSeek Harness Web UI and have sufficient storage, it is worth installing; otherwise, the time spent downloading the model is not worthwhile.
