About this plugin
Working with DeepSeek Harness Web, your main conversation can grow long, and asking a clarifying question mid-thread can easily break the flow of the discussion. dsh-ask-in-sidebar lets you select any snippet of an assistant reply, click the floating button, and ask about that exact passage in a temporary right-hand sidebar — without appending messages to, or re-indexing, the main session.
The sidebar answers based on a context snapshot captured at the moment you ask, supports real-time streaming output, collapsible reasoning steps, and follow-up questions. Markdown rendering covers headings, lists, code blocks, quotes, links, and tables. Closing the panel discards the discussion immediately; nothing is persisted to disk, keeping the privacy boundary clean.
If you rely on DSH Web for extended conversations and want to probe the details of a reply without disturbing the main thread, this plugin fills that gap neatly.
Use Cases
- You read an assistant reply and want to dig into a specific explanation without breaking the main thread
- A term or design decision in the response needs clarification in isolation
- You want to explore a sub-topic in a sandbox while the main conversation stays intact
Best For
- Developers who run long-form conversations in DSH Web
- Users who want to probe reply details without altering the main session
- AI tool users who value session isolation and a lightweight interaction model
