dsh-standalone-chat

The DeepSeek Harness Web GUI is built around agent sessions and workspaces, a powerful but heavyweight workflow. When you simply want a few quick rounds of lightweight conversation with a model without creating a session, binding a workspace, or loading AGENTS.md, dsh-standalone-chat offers a clean, self-contained entry point: a dedicated Chat button in the sidebar footer, routed at /chat, fully decoupled from the agent ecosystem.

Key capabilities include token-by-token streaming with collapsible reasoning panels, a full conversation history (create, auto-title, rename, delete), and per-conversation model selection grouped by provider (falling back to the DSH default when none is chosen). Rendering reuses the official MarkdownText component for visual consistency. Requests carry no system prompt, tools, or workspace context; data is persisted independently, so saved chats survive uninstallation.

Ideal for developers who rely on DSH for agent workflows but occasionally need a zero-overhead way to trial models, demo conversations, or run quick A/B comparisons. The plugin modifies no official packages, registers no new commands, and occupies no official slots. Install it, use it, uninstall it when done, and your conversation data stays exactly where you left it.
