DeepSeek Harness (DSH) is an agent development and orchestration framework officially provided by DeepSeek. Its core design philosophy is “everything is a plugin.” In real development or debugging scenarios, an agent’s task status (such as completed or awaiting confirmation) may sometimes be indicated only by visual changes and can easily be overlooked. The dsh-plugin-sound-notify plugin is designed to provide auditory feedback for these status changes.

This is a sound notification plugin that runs under the DeepSeek Harness Web Profile and is maintained by user joyboy-yy. It primarily addresses the need for auditory feedback when an agent’s task execution status changes, helping users stay more immediately aware of workflow progress.

Core Features

The plugin provides the following capabilities:

  • Status notification sounds: Plays a completion sound when a task is finished; plays a reminder sound when waiting for user input (such as when choices, question confirmations, plan reviews, or approval requests appear).
  • Dedicated settings page: Provides a separate “Sound Notification” page on the left side of DSH Settings.
  • Volume control: Supports volume adjustment from 0% to 100%; settings are automatically persisted.
  • Preview function: Provides dedicated preview buttons to play the “task completed” and “awaiting selection” sounds.
  • UI theming: Supports light and dark themes.

Installation and Enablement

  1. Run the installation command:
    dsh plugin --profile web add github:joyboy-yy/dsh-plugin-sound-notify
  1. The plugin package includes a DSH bundle composition, so no additional configuration is required after installation.
  2. Restart the dsh web process.
  3. Refresh the current page and go to Settings → Sound Notification.

Typical Usage

On first use, click any preview button on the settings page to allow the browser to play sound. After that, when the agent reaches the statuses mentioned above, the system will automatically play the corresponding notification sound.

Applicable Scenarios and Notes

  • Environment requirements: Requires a Web profile compatible with DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.7.
  • Privacy and security: The plugin settings contain only the enabled status and volume percentage; they do not include any credentials, account names, machine-specific paths, telemetry data, or user content.
  • License: Released under the MIT License.

The plugin improves perceptual feedback when using agents through simple audio interactions. For more details, see the GitHub repository.
