What it does
Makes the branch the building block of AI conversation management — parallel workflows, continuous and mergeable conversation memory
Works — verified, early-stage project
Makes the branch the building block of AI conversation management — parallel workflows, continuous and mergeable conversation memory 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-session-fork
English | 简体中文
Sub agents and parallel development never quite deliver in today's agent apps. This project manages dsh's native, discrete sessions the way git manages branches: fork gives conversations inheritance, while squash and rebase give them merging — a major upgrade to the parallel-development and prompt-management experience on dsh.
This is a plugin for DeepSeek Harness; it cannot run standalone.

Pain points it solves
- Efficient solo parallel development: the branch model mirrors how real programmers collaborate. While developing in parallel, every agent holds its own snapshot of the repo — you trade a strictly linear development history for resolving conflicts at merge time.
- Clean context management: the main branch (e.g.
main) stays your secretary and dispatcher. Research and coding tasks are delegated to child branches; when a task is done, only its compressed context is reported back to the main branch. - Hardened session management: the branch model upgrades dsh's native
forkand cross-session messaging experience.
Quick start
Install (requires a web-app-based dsh profile):
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-session-fork
After that, just let your agent use the plugin freely — every command also ships as an agent-callable tool!
Core features
branchoperations give every session a name, an ancestry, and an index — manageable through commands.forkhardens the native experience and provides the ancestry primitive.squashandrebaseoffer two forms of cross-branch merging.send_message_by_branchstrengthens communication between sessions.- The branch tab provides visual management of branches.

What we want to build next:
- Branch-scoped project memory. Existing long-term memory models are project-grained, which is a disaster for the branch model: memory leaks across branches and pollutes context. Branch-grained memory management is the road to a more robust model.
- Ongoing maintenance. Open
Issues— there are plenty of long-term improvements and bugs waiting.
We take an open stance on AI collaboration: feel free to use AI to contribute code, write commit messages, and draft PRs. But we expect you to own your code — review it yourself, and treat AI as your tool in communication rather than letting it talk to us on your behalf.

Install
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-session-fork 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:Jason-skd/dsh-session-fork Headless (CLI) profile:
dsh plugin --profile headless add github:Jason-skd/dsh-session-fork Test report
Verified: L1 install + L2 load + L3 runtime from GitHub source on dsh 0.1.0-rc.6.
