🌐 Multi-provider web search plugin for DeepSeek Harness: Zero-key Bing/Baidu direct search, free-tier APIs (Tavily/Brave/Serper/Bocha), SearXNG token auth, auto-fallback, and a built-in Web Settings GUI. 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.
