dsh-lan-access

By default, the DeepSeek Harness web interface binds only to the loopback address (127.0.0.1), meaning it is accessible solely from the same machine. This poses a challenge for developers or multi-device users who need to access the interface remotely from other devices, such as a second computer, tablet, or phone. The dsh-lan-access plugin addresses this by adding a simple LAN access toggle to the settings, allowing users to switch to binding all network interfaces (0.0.0.0) with one click. This enables other devices on the same local network to access the web interface directly, streamlining remote operations without hassle.

The plugin’s core capabilities extend beyond just a toggle. It ensures a secure and seamless experience by updating the /api trust fence in real-time, so remote browsers can fully utilize chat, tools, and workspace features without modifying the Harness core. Additionally, it automatically installs a crypto.randomUUID polyfill to support non-secure contexts (like HTTP access), preventing runtime errors. The setting is persisted across restarts and updates, maintaining user preferences effortlessly.

dsh-lan-access is ideal for users who require LAN collaboration or remote management, such as developer teams, system administrators, or those in educational settings. It simplifies network configuration by eliminating the need for manual file edits while preserving default security (off state), ensuring activation only on trusted networks. If you frequently access DeepSeek Harness from multiple devices, this plugin enhances flexibility and productivity significantly.
