The core idea of DeepSeek Harness (DSH) is “everything is a plugin”. For developers, directly invoking the model often lacks a structured workflow. dsh-skills provides a set of ready-to-use methodologies and tool skills, covering the entire process from requirement exploration to documentation generation and official document processing.

Core Features

This skill set includes the following practical skills:

  1. Creativity and Design: The brainstorming skill handles requirement exploration and design processes before creative work.
  2. Session and Development Management: using-superpowers guides when to use the skill system; finishing-a-development-branch handles decisions after development, such as merging, creating a PR, or cleanup.
  3. Skill Writing and Maintenance: writing-skills is used for writing, editing, and validating new skills.
  4. Technical Documentation and Troubleshooting: github-actions-docs provides documentation-based guidance and troubleshooting for GitHub Actions.
  5. Internal Mechanism Analysis: how-it-works can explain internal mechanisms, such as how claude-mem works.
  6. Web Search: web-search searches through DuckDuckGo’s free endpoint, without requiring an API key.
  7. Chinese Official Document Processing: gongwen-skill supports the full workflow of Chinese official document processing, including GB/T 9704 checks, remediation, templates, and conversion.
  8. Presentation Generation: ppt-studio generates native .pptx presentations with one click, supporting dual engines for PPTD DSL and JSON.

Installation and Enablement

This plugin is a pure directory-based skill set and does not require a plugin framework.

git clone https://github.com/linhut/dsh-skills.git
# 方式 A：拷入全局技能目录
cp -r dsh-skills/skills/* ~/.dsh/skills/
# 方式 B：在 settings.yaml 中配置 customSkillDirs 指向 dsh-skills/skills

After installation, DSH displays skill names in the session directory. The model loads the skill body on demand through the built-in skill({ name }) tool.

Skill Structure

Each skill corresponds to a directory skills/<name>/ and contains a SKILL.md file.

The header of the SKILL.md file is Frontmatter, containing:
* name: The skill name, which must be kebab-case and match the directory name.
* description: A model-visible description used for triggering.
* disable-model-invocation: Optional; controls whether model invocation is disabled.
* user-invocable: Optional; controls whether users are allowed to invoke it manually.
