dsh-cron-tasks

When using DeepSeek Harness for AI conversations, you might need to schedule regular tasks, such as daily report generation or periodic data checks. However, the official reminder feature triggers within the same chat session, which can clutter your workspace and disrupt your workflow. The dsh-cron-tasks plugin addresses this by creating standalone scheduled tasks that open a fresh session at the specified time to run a prompt, with all run history logged in the "Scheduled tasks" sidebar, keeping your daily work sessions uncluttered.

At its core, the plugin offers a sidebar entry to easily create, pause/resume, delete, and search tasks, supporting one-shot or recurring schedules via at or cron expressions. It allows you to pin a specific model and working directory for each job, ensuring predictable execution. The scheduler operates within the DSH Host process, with policies for overlap and misfire to prevent redundant or missed runs. This provides a non-intrusive and highly controllable way to automate tasks without leaving the Harness environment.

If you are a DeepSeek Harness user who regularly deals with repetitive tasks or prefers to keep scheduled jobs separate from daily chats, dsh-cron-tasks is ideal for you. Whether you're a developer setting up automated workflows or a user arranging timed reminders, it streamlines your processes, making your AI assistant more efficient and organized.
