dsh-office-tools

Seven model-facing Office file tools for DeepSeek Harness, running entirely in the plugin host half.

Install: dsh plugin --profile web add github:kw78/dsh-office-tools

Tool	Purpose	Library
word_create	Create .docx (title, paragraphs, bullets, one table)	docx
word_read	Extract plain text from .docx	mammoth
excel_create	Create a multi-sheet .xlsx from scalar cell grids	SheetJS (xlsx)
excel_read	Read one or all sheets as scalar rows	SheetJS
excel_update	Replace/create whole sheets, or write cells by A1 address	SheetJS
ppt_create	Create a 16:9 .pptx (title slide, titles, paragraphs, bullets, notes, PNG/JPG/GIF images)	pptxgenjs
ppt_read	Extract per-slide paragraph text, speaker notes, and image counts	jszip

Harness integration

The plugin follows the standard DSH host-plugin contract:

• It exports name / inject / apply; inject = ['tools'] is its only runtime service dependency (@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools).
• apply(ctx) wraps every ctx.tools.register(defineTool({...})) in ctx.effect(...) so Cordis disposes the registrations with the plugin fiber.
• defineTool declares model-visible parameters, a validated canonical output.schema, and a pure output.render text projection.
• execute(args, exec) resolves every path against exec.agent.session.header.cwd; relative paths stay in the session workspace and absolute paths are accepted only when still inside it. A realpath check on the nearest existing ancestor closes the symlink escape hatch.
• Image files must live inside the session workspace (.png/.jpg/.jpeg/.gif, 20 MiB each); explicit inch coordinates x/y/w/h are supported, or omit them for automatic placement below the text.
• Writes go through a same-directory temp file + rename; overwrite defaults to false.

Build

pnpm install
pnpm run check   # typecheck + tests + build

Artifacts: lib/index.js (ESM host bundle with Office libraries inlined; @deepseek-ai/* and cordis stay external) and lib/types/**/*.d.ts.

Install

# npm (recommended)
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-office-tools

# GitHub source
dsh plugin --profile web add github:kw78/dsh-office-tools

# local checkout
dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-office-tools

Restart the DSH server after installation. The seven tools appear in the next prompt assembly.

Community indexes

• Registration blocks for awesome-dsh-plugin / dsh-market are in docs/hub-registration.md.
• Recommended repository topics: dsh, dsh-plugin, deepseek-harness, office.

Safety

• All file access is confined to the calling agent's session workspace.
• Reads are capped at 50 MiB; text/cell results are bounded and mark truncated.
• Creates/updates are bounded by row and cell limits and refuse overwrites by default.
• No LibreOffice/PowerPoint/Word subprocess is spawned; formats are generated and parsed with pure-JS libraries.
