About this plugin

If the default light, rounded style of the dsh Web GUI feels bland, dsh-theme-hacker-terminal turns your conversation window into a retro terminal without touching any interaction logic. It replaces the visual layer with a pure-black canvas accented in high-contrast #00ff41 green and a monospace terminal font stack, so reading feels like typing inside tmux or PuTTY.

The details are deliberate: every element uses sharp right angles with no rounded corners; conversation and composer areas stretch full width; scrollbars render as a uniform 8 px green-on-black style across Gecko, Blink, and WebKit; tooltip text is forced to a readable light green on its dark surface; the todo list, goal bar, and queue dock stay in their natural document-flow positions above the composer rather than floating. A scanline overlay is intentionally omitted, keeping the theme gentle on OLED panels during long reading sessions.

Under the hood it is a dual-faced Cordis plugin: the host side is a no-op that simply provides a mount point for the loader, while the browser side loads immediately, calls theme.overrideTokens() with the hacker palette, injects the full skin stylesheet, and cleanly removes everything on teardown. It is made for terminal-aesthetic enthusiasts, users who want a crisp high-contrast reading experience, and anyone who prefers not to hand-write custom CSS for dsh.

Use Cases

  • Need a gentler, high-contrast dark surface for long dsh reading sessions
  • Want the dsh chat pane to look like a retro terminal emulator
  • Prefer a minimal dark theme with consistent scrollbars, monospace type, and sharp corners

Best For

  • Fans of terminal aesthetics and CRT-style visuals
  • Developers who read long code or documents in dsh for hours
  • Minimalists who prefer dark, right-angle, round-corner-free interfaces
