Introduction

The run configurations for DeepSeek Harness (DSH) are typically scattered across multiple files and involve complex logic. To figure out why a particular plugin is not running, or where a specific model is loaded from, you often need to switch repeatedly among multiple configuration files and runtime environments, making it difficult to get a holistic view.

dsh-insight aims to solve this problem. It provides a read-only panel that centralizes all configuration layers, plugins, services, tools, and models, showing their sources, configuration overrides, and runtime states, then derives and answers “what the actual DSH configuration consists of” in real time.

What It Is

dsh-insight is a plugin that provides a read-only insight panel for DeepSeek Harness configuration files.

  • Maintainer: gwsbhqt
  • License: MIT
  • Core Value: visualize configuration layers (insertion, override, disabling), trace sources, and display runtime state.

Core Features

The plugin provides the following capabilities:

  1. Configuration Hierarchy Visualization: shows how configuration layers affect configuration items, including insertion, override, and disabling.
  2. Source Tracing: displays the sources of plugins, services, tools, and models.
  3. Multi-dimensional Sorting: provides six-axis sorting, including sorting by configuration, plugins, services, tools, models, and presets.

Installation and Enabling

Installing the plugin requires no build steps and no restart of the DSH process. The panel consists of two parts: a host plugin (for data collection) and a browser plugin (for visualization).

  1. Install the plugin:
    dsh plugin --profile web add @gwsbhqt/dsh-insight
  1. Update the plugin (optional):
    dsh plugin --profile web update @gwsbhqt/dsh-insight@latest
  1. Open the panel:
    In the DSH interface, open Settings -> Insight.

Use Cases and Notes

  • Intended Users: developers who need to debug configuration issues, troubleshoot plugin conflicts, or understand configuration layer relationships.
  • Note: This plugin is designed as read-only and will not modify any configuration.

Conclusion

dsh-insight reduces the barrier to troubleshooting configuration issues by centralizing scattered configuration logic. For developers who need fine-grained control over DSH behavior, it is a practical auxiliary tool.
