dsh-quick-restart

Every time you pull a new plugin from dsh-market, drop a skill file into ~/.dsh/skills, or add a feature via dsh plugin add, the old workflow forces you to context-switch to a terminal, restart the DSH service by hand, and then flip back to the browser to refresh the page. For developers who install and iterate on plugins and skills regularly, that back-and-forth breaks flow and adds a small but annoying extra step to every change. dsh-quick-restart collapses the entire restart cycle into a single Refresh DSH button at the bottom of the sidebar: one click, no confirmation dialog, the service restarts in the background, and the page reloads itself the moment the service is healthy again — zero manual steps from click to working state.

A live status dot sits right next to the button: green means the service is up, red means it is down. The client polls the /dsh-health endpoint every five seconds so the indicator always reflects real-time service state. The restart command runs with --no-open, so no stray browser tabs pop up during the process. The whole cycle from click to page recovery takes roughly twenty seconds, with a single lightweight toast telling the user to wait.

This plugin is built for the everyday DSH developer who adds and swaps plugins and skills as part of normal workflow. After a one-time dsh web restart to pick up the plugin, every future plugin or skill activation becomes a one-button action. You stay in your editor or browser, stay in your coding flow, and never have to remember the exact terminal command to restart the service again.
