The default interface of the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) Web GUI is fairly generic. If you need deep customization, you can extend it with plugins. dsh-mcskin is a third-party DSH plugin that switches the entire Web UI theme to a Minecraft style.

This is a fun theme plugin maintained by DongDong1997. It provides 6 different theme configurations, covering 3 styles (Classic, Modern MC, Midnight MC) and 2 modes (light/dark). By overriding theme tokens and injecting CSS, the plugin enables page-level and control-level Minecraft-style styling.

Core Features

  1. Theme configurations: Provides 6 theme options (3 styles x 2 modes), each with a complete token mapping (70+ variables).
  2. Visual decorations:
    • The sidebar uses biome gradients.
    • A 6px-wide brand-colored grass bar appears at the top of the page.
    • A 35% transparent Creeper decoration appears in the bottom-right corner.
  3. Icons and controls:
    • Uses Minecraft pixel-art icons.
    • Main page controls are replaced with item icons such as grass blocks, stone, swords, pickaxes, and chests.
  4. Settings entry: Adds a new settings page that displays themes as grid cards for selection.
  5. Persistence: The selected theme is saved in the browser’s localStorage['mcskin.theme'] and remains unchanged after page refresh.

Installation and Enabling

Install using the official CLI; no manual configuration files are required.

After installation, the Web GUI automatically applies the theme.

Typical Usage

  1. After installing the plugin, open the Settings menu in the Web GUI.
  2. Find the “🎮 Minecraft Theme” tab.
  3. On the settings page, click a theme card to select it (for example, “Classic-Light”).
  4. The page immediately applies the theme and records the selection.

Use Cases and Notes

  • System requirements: Requires a relatively recent version of DeepSeek Harness (with theme.overrideTokens, settings.section list slots, and body access).
  • Dependencies: Requires React 18 and a modern browser supporting CSS color-mix, data-uri svg, and image-rendering: pixelated.
  • License: MIT License.
  • Source: The plugin is hosted on the SkillHub directory and GitHub. It has no affiliation with official DeepSeek and is a community third-party plugin.

If you are using DSH and want a more immersive interface experience, this plugin provides a direct and customizable solution.
