wsl-bridge

DSH (DeepSeek Harness) Cordis plugin that lets an agent running inside WSL
(Windows Subsystem for Linux) access and invoke Windows-side files and
programs.

Built for agents that live in WSL but need the Windows host: read/write files
on C:\, run .exe programs, open things in Explorer, list drives, convert
paths.

Tools

Optional (when codebase-memory-mcp is installed):
codebase_search, codebase_arch — knowledge-graph code search.

How it works

Everything runs through the host shell service (the same seam the built-in
bash tool uses) with the calling session's sandbox policy applied per call.
Path normalization handles both C:\Users\me and /mnt/c/Users/me forms.
win_run writes temp .bat/.ps1 files to C:\Windows\Temp and cleans up
after itself; PowerShell output is forced to UTF-8 console encoding.

Install (DSH bundle)

Standard DSH bundle — install with the official plugin command (auto-inits
the profile, pnpm-installs, and appends the bundle layer per
dsh.bundle.patch):

dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-wsl-bridge
# or: dsh plugin --profile web add github:you/dsh-wsl-bridge
# Restart dsh web; the tools mount automatically.

Dependencies are declared as peerDependencies (ecosystem convention —
@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools is already loaded in the DSH process). Optional env
vars at apply time: CODEBASE_MEMORY_BIN for the codebase-memory tools
(default /usr/local/bin/codebase-memory-mcp; they error if absent).

Requirements

• WSL with Windows interop enabled (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, wslpath,
  explorer.exe reachable — standard on WSL1/WSL2)
• DSH host with the shell and sandboxPolicy services
