dsh-valley-meter

Working with DeepSeek Harness means peak and off-peak windows directly shape the cost of every single call, yet your balance and daily spend live on a separate official dashboard. Switching back and forth breaks your flow, and it is easy to miss a reading mid-session. dsh-valley-meter consolidates those four everyday questions — Is it off-peak right now? How long until the next valley? What is my balance? What have I spent today? — into a single compact dark card anchored below the composer or at the sidebar footer, so the answers are always at a glance without ever leaving the editor.

The card ships with a real-time, second-precise off-peak countdown, a two-color progress bar with a white time needle, a peak-versus-valley badge, and an account balance fetched independently from the official /user/balance endpoint. Daily spend is calculated by the plugin itself: it listens to llm/stream events, applies a built-in two-tier price table, and writes the running total to a local ledger file. No other plugin is required. The display toggles between a detailed card and a pure-number minimal mode with one click, and both the valley and peak accent colors are customizable via a color picker with instant preview.

If you are a regular Harness user who batches heavy workloads into off-peak hours while keeping peak windows light, or simply wants a quiet glance at balance and daily cost without breaking your flow, this widget is built exactly for that. Without an API key configured the balance slot shows a calm no-data placeholder while today's spend keeps accumulating normally — no errors, no pop-ups, ready to use from the moment you install it and restart the web page.
