DeepSeek Harness Awareness Metrics Audit Plugin

The DeepSeek Harness (DSH) plugin `slatinwine/dsh-sentience-audit` audits an agent's functional organization based on trajectory structure. Grounded in the indicators of sentience theory by Butlin et al. (2023), it rates sessions on an L1-L5 scale, with fully reproducible results that do not rely on large models. It outputs specific ratings and evidence through the `sentience_audit` tool, and is suitable for assessing whether an agent exhibits structural features such as recursive loops or a global workspace, but it is limited to live sessions and cannot evaluate subjective experience.
