About this plugin
Upgrading DeepSeek Harness (DSH) via npm on Windows is risky because native modules like koffi.node get locked, leading to a "Mismatched native Koffi modules" crash after an update, preventing the app from launching. Old update mechanisms failed to address this, causing system instability.
dsh-check-for-updates introduces an innovative, safe two-phase update strategy. It allows scheduling update tasks while DSH is running, with the actual installation performed by a detached process after the app exits. The plugin also integrates a triple-validation mechanism (npm exit code, on-disk version, native module consistency) and automatic healing for koffi link breaks, ensuring every update is secure.
For DSH users, this plugin offers a seamless update experience, supporting automatic detection on first load and manual checks in the settings panel. It displays intuitive floating popups near the settings button with clear update options. It is an essential stability tool for Windows users who want to keep DSH up-to-date and avoid crashes.
