✅
Our take
Works — verified, early-stage project

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that turns AI-generated HTML into a click-to-edit canvas beside the chat It installs cleanly and boots without issues in our testing. It's early-stage but functional.

“Verified” means our automated CI actually ran dsh plugin add in a clean profile and it booted — nothing more. Feature descriptions and version compatibility are the author’s claims. This is not a security audit and not an endorsement of third-party code.

README

dsh-html-canvas

English | 简体中文

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that turns AI-generated HTML into a click-to-edit canvas beside the chat.

A DSH agent can build a complete HTML page, but the Web UI only shows it as a code block that most people can't read, let alone edit — this plugin closes that gap: the agent hands the finished page to one tool, it renders in a canvas beside the chat, and anyone can change it by clicking the text on the page, no source code ever.

dsh-html-canvas

Features

  • Click-to-edit — any text on the rendered page is editable: headings, buttons, nav links, bare <div> text, even text inserted later by page scripts.
  • Side-by-side, not overlapping — the canvas squeezes the chat column instead of covering it, and resizes with a drag handle.
  • Lives in the chat — the tool call renders as a link; close the canvas anytime and click the link to reopen it with edits and width intact.
  • Safe and localized — sandboxed iframe, no editor artifacts in the output, UI text follows the DSH locale (English / 中文).

Install

npx -y @deepseek-ai/dsh plugin --profile web add @jinsong-zhou/dsh-html-canvas@latest

Then restart the DSH web process and refresh the browser. For a local checkout, declare a file: dependency in the profile's package.json and insert it in cordis.patch.yml:

- insert:
    - id: html-canvas
      name: '@jinsong-zhou/dsh-html-canvas'

Usage

Ask the agent for any page — "make me an Apple-style personal homepage" — the canvas opens with the result, and you click the text to change it.

Development

node tests/host.test.mjs      # host contract (plugin must stay dependency-free)
node tests/client.test.mjs    # client behavior
DSH_WEB_URL=http://127.0.0.1:<port> node tests/verify-deployment.mjs

Note: the host half imports nothing by design — a bundled @deepseek-ai/* dependency gets hoisted into the profile and shadows the host's copy, which breaks every tool call. The tests guard this.

Install

🧩 Let your agent install it (recommended)

Install the catalog once, then DeepSeek Harness can find and install any plugin from this site automatically:

dsh plugin add dshbase-catalog

Then say "install dsh-html-canvas for me" — your agent finds it in the directory and installs it. Docs: dshbase-catalog · verified packs.

This plugin is GitHub source (not published to npm) — install it straight from the repo:

Web profile:

dsh plugin --profile web add github:Jinsong-Zhou/dsh-html-canvas

Headless (CLI) profile:

dsh plugin --profile headless add github:Jinsong-Zhou/dsh-html-canvas

Test report

Verified: L1 install + L2 load + L3 runtime from GitHub source on dsh 0.1.0-rc.6.

When to use it

Extend the agent's coding surface — give it a new tool, workflow, or integration so it handles a dev task it couldn't before.

Who it's for

Developers who want dsh to behave like a teammate on real codebases — editing, running, and verifying changes rather than just answering.

For developers — extending it

The tool/command surface is the seam: expose more of the SDK, add smarter context wiring, or tighten the loop between code changes and verification.

Security: not yet scanned — our daily static scan will cover it shortly.
