What it does
Keyboard-first command palette for DeepSeek Harness Web.
Works — verified, growing community
Keyboard-first command palette for DeepSeek Harness Web. It installs cleanly and boots without issues in our testing. It has a growing community — a solid choice.
“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 Spotlight
简体中文 | English
A keyboard-first command palette for DeepSeek Harness Web. Open one palette to
find native slash commands, recent sessions, visible UI actions, and installed
plugin settings—without leaving the keyboard.
Features
- One shortcut:
⌘Kon macOS,Ctrl+Kon other platforms. - Customizable: click the shortcut control in the footer, then press a new
key combination. The setting is stored in the current browser. - Native actions: discovers and triggers the actions already provided by
DSH Web, and contributes one/spotlightcommand to the native slash menu
instead of maintaining a second command registry. - Fast search: deterministic fuzzy matching across slash commands, recent
sessions, UI actions, and plugin settings. - Keyboard navigation: Arrow Up/Down to select, Enter to run, Escape to
close. - Clean lifecycle: removes its event listeners, styles, and DOM nodes when
unloaded.
Install
Install the bundle into your DSH Web profile. From npm:
dsh plugin --profile web add "@0xsline/dsh-spotlight"
Or from the Git source:
dsh plugin --profile web add "github:0xsline/dsh-spotlight#main"
The Git install runs the package's prepare lifecycle because generatedlib/ files are not committed. It deletes and recreates only this package'slib/ directory with the repository-local TypeScript and tsdown executables;
it does not access the network or write outside the checkout. If lifecycle
scripts are disabled, install the npm release instead: it already contains the
built lib/ files and does not run prepare during installation.
Then start DSH Web and press ⌘K or Ctrl+K:
dsh --profile web
Usage
- Open Spotlight with the global shortcut, or type
/spotlightin the DSH
Web composer and pick the entry from the slash menu. - Type to filter commands and actions.
- Use Arrow Up/Down and Enter, or click a result.
- Click Shortcut in the footer to record a different key combination.
- Click Reset to restore the platform default.
Shortcut preferences are local to the current browser origin and profile.
How it works
DSH Spotlight is a standalone Cordis bundle with a small Web client. The
client mounts once the host's sessions, command-plane, plugin-inventory, and
command-UI services exist — all standard in every stock DSH Web deployment —
then reads recent sessions, slash commands, and the plugin inventory directly
from those services. It also discovers actionable elements in the current page
and delegates execution back to those native elements. A catalog RPC failure
degrades only its own category. The plugin adds no server data channel and
stores no durable server-side state.

Because part of the discovery follows the current DSH Web DOM, host UI
changes may require updating the selectors in src/spotlight/discovery.ts.
Development
Requirements: Node.js ^22.19.0 || >=24.0.0 and pnpm 11.7.0.
git clone https://github.com/0xsline/dsh-spotlight.git
cd dsh-spotlight
pnpm install
pnpm run verify:self-contained
pnpm run typecheck
pnpm test
pnpm run build
Test a local checkout in DSH Web:
pnpm run prepare
dsh plugin --profile web add "link:$(pwd)"
dsh --profile web
Inspect the package contents before publishing:
pnpm pack --dry-run --json

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-spotlight 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:0xsline/dsh-spotlight Headless (CLI) profile:
dsh plugin --profile headless add github:0xsline/dsh-spotlight Test report
Verified: L1 install + L2 load + L3 runtime from GitHub source on dsh 0.1.0-rc.6.
When to use it
Change how dsh looks or how you interact with it — a theme, a skin, or a new panel that reshapes the workspace.
Who it's for
Users who spend hours in the web UI and want it to look and feel the way they work.
For developers — extending it
Skins, panels, and theme tokens are the extension points — author a new skin, add a panel, or sync tokens with an upstream palette.
