dsh-tidewatch: DeepSeek Peak and Valley Tiers and Session Cost Floating Badge

# Introduction Since August 17, 2026, DeepSeek has implemented time-of-use pricing, with off-peak rates at half the price of peak rates. Running the same task during peak hours costs twice as much as during off-peak hours. The challenge lies in the fact that when writing code, you may not remember which tier you are currently in. Additionally, the web interface of DeepSeek Harness (hereinafter referred to as DSH) does not have a built-in feature to display the current tier and the session cost. DSH's philosophy is "everything is a plugin," so this gap in the presentation layer is perfectly suited for a plugin to fill. The dsh-tidewatch introduced below is such a badge: it floats next to the input box, displaying the peak/off-peak status, a countdown timer, and the session cost. # What is dsh-tidewatch?

dsh-deepseek-quota-bar: A DeepSeek API Quota Bar Plugin for DeepSeek Harness Web GUI

dsh-deepseek-quota-bar is an MIT-licensed plugin developed for the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) Web GUI, designed to solve the problem of scattered API quota and usage information.

Core features also include peak/off-peak hour reminders, model unit price display, adjustable card position and transparency, a collapsible mode, and 60-second automatic refresh. Regarding data, once `DEEPSEEK_PLATFORM_TOKEN` is configured, official precise usage data can be retrieved; otherwise, the balance difference is used for estimation. Session costs are calculated based on the official price table applied to the current logs. Installation only requires running
