dsh-cn-boot

The most frustrating part of installing DeepSeek Harness dependencies from mainland China is rarely the code—it is the network. pnpm dlx hangs, GitHub clones time out, and raw.githubusercontent.com simply refuses to connect. dsh-cn-boot exists for exactly that moment: one command that tells you which endpoint is broken, why it is broken, and what to run next. It probes the official npm registry, npmmirror, GitHub, raw.githubusercontent.com, Hugging Face, Gitee, and common local proxy ports (127.0.0.1:7897 / 10809), reads your current npm/pnpm registry configuration, and returns a structured diagnostic report with concrete recommendations plus a ready-to-paste PowerShell and bash bootstrap script. Everything is read-only by default; the sole write action (switching the registry to npmmirror) only fires when you explicitly pass --apply, is fully reversible, and the plugin has zero runtime dependencies.

Inside the harness, the tool is also agent-callable. A single natural-language prompt such as "check whether my network reaches dsh dependency sources" yields a structured dsh-cn-boot/v1 result—per-target probe status, current registry config, recommendation list, and the generated script—so an agent can chain the fix automatically in the next step.

It is built for any developer in mainland China who works with DeepSeek Harness and hits dependency-install stalls, and equally useful for teams onboarding new machines: drop the one-liner into your setup guide and new contributors will know in five minutes exactly where their network stands.
