About this plugin
The DeepSeek Harness web GUI ships with a single default look. dsh-skin-collection steps in with nine hand-tuned visual skins — Wabi-Sabi, Terminal, Cyberpunk, Film Noir, Swiss International, Bauhaus, Brutalism, Dark Glass, and Pixel Retro — letting the same tool instantly wear an entirely new face.
Each skin carries its own complete palette through --dsw-alias-* CSS tokens that survive any client-tree rebuild. While a skin is active, the base color scheme locks to that skin's design so dark themes never render light chrome around dark tokens. The sidebar picker manages skins and the underlying light/dark/system preference independently, and selecting the default style restores the stock UI in full.
Ideal for anyone who wants visual variety without touching source code. The package ships prebuilt artifacts with no build scripts and no install-time code execution. Adding a new skin is a single data-driven entry in EXTRA_SKINS; registration, the picker menu, palette emission, and the attribute guard all follow automatically.
Use Cases
- Switching to a cyberpunk or terminal look for a focused coding session
- Setting a Dark Glass or Pixel Retro ambiance for long nighttime work
- Presenting a fully customized tool interface during a team demo or client demo
- Shifting to Bauhaus or Wabi-Sabi aesthetics for a design-heavy workflow
Best For
- DeepSeek Harness daily users who want visual variety without touching source code
- Design-minded developers who care about UI aesthetics and visual consistency
- Plugin developers looking to contribute additional skins via the data-driven EXTRA_SKINS registry
