Introduction to the DeepSeek Harness Image Understanding Plugin

`dsh-vision-analysis` is an image understanding plugin for DeepSeek Harness, designed to address the lack of visual capabilities in text-only models. It supports vision endpoints in OpenAI or Anthropic format, allowing integration with models such as Qwen or GPT-4o as well as local Ollama, and provides eight analysis modes, including OCR and chart data extraction. It is easy to install and accepts images as local files, URLs, or Base64 inputs. With image bridging configured, agents can paste images directly into conversations for analysis. The plugin prioritizes privacy by processing images internally only and returns structured JSON data for OCR and chart data extraction.
