dsh-restart-button: One-Click Restart for the DSH Desktop App
`dsh-restart-button` is a DSH desktop application plugin developed by `FuriousKinght`, designed to address the inefficiency of manual restarts. By adding a restart button at the bottom of the sidebar, it enables one-click application restarts and automatic page restoration. The plugin uses a Node.js helper process and the Windows `taskkill` command to forcibly terminate the process tree, release ports and resources, and ensure automatic page refreshes. It includes a two-step confirmation mechanism to prevent accidental triggers, but is limited to the Windows packaged environment and is not configurable.

The `dsh-desktop-app` plugin, developed by MARIOMLY, leverages Chromium to convert DeepSeek Harness (DSH) into a standalone desktop window application. By using `--app` mode, it removes browser tabs, the address bar, and the bookmarks bar, while supporting system tray residency and shortcut installation. Users can control the application's status, restart it, and open its window via command-line controls. This plugin requires no additional runtime and is well suited for developers who want to use DSH as a resident application.

The `dsh-desktop-shell` plugin converts the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) WebUI into a standalone desktop application without Electron dependencies. It provides core features such as standalone windows, tray minimization, incognito mode, and backend takeover. Users must install Node.js, DSH, and the WebView2 runtime. After installation, the plugin generates a portable launcher in the user directory and supports installation, repair, autostart configuration, and log viewing via settings or the tray menu, ensuring that the plugin and the host application do not interfere with each other.

`dsh-webview-wrapper` is an open-source plugin for DeepSeek Harness (DSH), designed to package DSH’s web interface into a native desktop application. It uses the WebviewJS engine (WebView2/WebKit) to create native windows and provides system tray integration, window hide/show, and service takeover capabilities. Released under the MIT license, the plugin allows developers to gain a native experience without forking the main project. It is currently in an early stage and has functional limitations, including fixed window size, no native notifications, and no configuration interface.

dsh-plugin-desktop is an open-source plugin developed by kkaktus463 that aims to convert the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) Web UI into a local native window to improve the development experience. It intercepts Web startup requests, attaches an existing DSH process to a desktop window, and ensures that closing the window does not stop the server. Core features include running the UI in a native window, configuring the Host/Port/Executable, and checking/starting DSH Desktop. The plugin supports Windows, and after installation, the executable file path must be specified in the configuration file. Note: if the server is bound to a non-loopback address (such as a LAN IP), the plugin will fail and fall back to the browser.
Read Moredsh-desktop-shell: Adding Electron desktop windows for DSH Web
`dsh-desktop-shell` is an MIT-licensed DSH desktop shell plugin designed to optimize the local usage experience of `dsh web`. By integrating into the web profile, it automatically launches an Electron window to load the existing HTTP service when `dsh web` starts, while requiring zero modifications to the DSH core engine. Key features include: allowing the process to continue running (rather than exiting) when the window is closed by hiding it to the system tray, with a tray menu that supports reopening the window or forcing the process to quit; implementing a single-instance lock to prevent duplicate launches and remembering window position and size; and providing a desktop shortcut script for double-click launching. It features a comprehensive fallback strategy: if Electron is missing, fails to start, or the window fails to load, it automatically falls back to browser mode without blocking service operation. Installation requires a pro...
Read Moredsh-app-launcher: Turn DSH Web GUI into a desktop application window
dsh-app-launcher is a DSH profile bundle designed to transform the DSH Web GUI into a desktop-like application experience. Its core features include launching Chrome or Edge standalone application windows using a dedicated configuration directory to achieve browser isolation; automatically carrying the process token in the window URL to facilitate authentication; and calling appExit(0) upon window closure to ensure the DSH process exits gracefully. By default, it generates desktop shortcuts on Windows and supports remembering window state and disabling spell checking. Users need to have pnpm installed and can install it by executing the `dsh plugin` command via GitHub or npm. Configuration items can be overridden in `cordis.patch.yml` by ID, eliminating the need for manual configuration.
