About this plugin
DeepSeek Harness ships with a solid-color chat background by default, and swapping in a personal image usually means forking the source. dsh-background turns that into a single settings-page step: open Settings → Background, pick a local file or paste an image URL, and see a PNG, JPG, GIF, or WebP image appear behind the chat stream or across the entire window.
Every image is down-scaled to fit your screen via a browser canvas, so oversized files cost nothing extra. Two sliders—opacity and dark overlay—let you dial the look from 0 to 100 without writing a line of CSS. The scope toggle switches between chat-area mode (sidebar stays fully opaque) and full-screen mode (every panel becomes semi-transparent to reveal the wallpaper), and both paths share the same rendering pipeline for a consistent appearance. All settings and image data persist to a local directory, survive restarts, and work offline; theme colors are pulled from DSH design tokens so light and dark modes adapt automatically.
Ideal for DSH users who want a personalized interface without maintaining patches or touching source code. The plugin collects and uploads no conversation data, and uninstalling it restores the default look with a single action.
Use Cases
- Replace the default solid-color background with a personal image
- Tune opacity and dark overlay sliders for a comfortable reading vibe
- Apply a unified wallpaper across the entire window in fullscreen mode
Best For
- DSH users who want a personalized look without writing code
- Developers who find the default white background too harsh for long sessions
- Power users who enjoy expressing their style through workspace themes
