dsh-git-flow: DeepSeek Harness Workspace Git Plugin

In DeepSeek Harness, developers often need to manage repositories directly within the session context. The dsh-git-flow plugin provides a branch chip in the Composer toolbar. Opening it allows you to browse and switch branches, create new branches, and commit a selected subset of files — commit messages are automatically generated by the session model based on the diff.

Installation¶

The plugin depends on Node ^22.19.0 || >=24.0.0 and pnpm 10.

Use the official installation command:

dsh plugin --profile gitflow-web add https://github.com/hunan36/dsh-git-flow

After installation, enable the plugin on the plugin page.

Feature Overview¶

The plugin provides the following core features:

Browse branches
Switch branches
Create branches
Commit a selected subset of files
Automatically generate commit messages using the session model based on the diff
Push

Usage¶

In the Composer toolbar, click the branch chip (for example [⑂ feature/login 3]) to open the menu. The menu supports the following actions:

Search branches
View local branches
Create a new branch
Commit (enabled only when there are changes in the working directory)
Refresh status

Security Boundaries and Behavioral Details¶

The plugin enforces the following security and behavioral restrictions in its implementation:

Session isolation: The browser only sends the sessionId, and the host resolves the repository path based on that session. The page cannot specify the directory in which Git commands are executed.
Command execution security: Arguments are always passed as arrays, not shell strings. stdin: 'ignore' and GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0 are configured to ensure credential prompts do not hang the invocation.
Push behavior: The push command never passes --force or --force-with-lease. It only pushes the current branch to its upstream branch, setting the upstream automatically if it does not exist.
Commit scope: The commit panel only stages the files checked in the panel. If no files are selected, it returns git/no-files-selected and does not fall back to an implicit git add -A.
Branch switching: When there are uncommitted changes in the working directory, branch switching is refused by default and returns git/dirty-worktree. A --force forced switch is sent only when the user clicks a second time in the confirmation dialog.
Discarding changes: This is executed only after the user selects a destructive action in the confirmation dialog. Tracked paths are restored to HEAD (git restore --source=HEAD --staged --worktree), untracked paths are removed (git clean -fd, without -x, so ignored files are preserved), and conflicted paths are rejected rather than handled by automatic guessing.

Dependencies¶

Node.js: ^22.19.0 || >=24.0.0
pnpm: 10

Conclusion¶

dsh-git-flow embeds Git operations directly into the DSH session flow and reduces the cost of manually writing Commit Messages by using AI-assisted generation of commit messages.
