About this plugin
You write in DeepSeek Harness for hours and the question keeps coming back: roughly how much did I spend today? Instead of switching tabs to the console and doing mental math, this plugin pins the answer right below the chat input—today's estimated spend and your remaining balance, at a glance.
Under the hood it keeps things simple. The total balance comes straight from DeepSeek's official API, so the number is trustworthy. Daily spend is estimated from the day's balance delta (marked with a tilde) and can be manually calibrated. Top-ups and bonus credits will not zero out your daily figure by accident, and both the DSH host and browser refresh automatically every three minutes. An optional platform token lets it try DeepSeek's internal usage endpoint, but even if that fails the balance query keeps working.
It is built for developers who run tasks in DSH all day and just want a quick cost check without leaving the editor. Keep in mind it is not a per-token dashboard; it does not break down spend by session, model, or tool. It answers one question—how much did I use today, and what is left—and does it well.
