dsh-plugin-live-catalog

The built-in plugin list tab in DSH Web shows a static snapshot; after adding, removing, or toggling plugins, or after editing package.json, the UI often fails to reflect what the Loader actually has loaded, forcing users to restart repeatedly or cross-check files by hand. dsh-plugin-live-catalog replaces that tab with a live, read-only catalog that pulls the latest metadata from Loader configuration entries and package files every time the directory is opened, eliminating the need to maintain static data files.

On the capability side, plugins are grouped by origin—official built-in, personal, or unknown—and then mapped into nine module categories such as Core & Boot, Sessions, Models & Credentials, and more; each category shows four plugins by default with the rest expandable. The view supports keyword search, origin and category filters, enable/disable statistics, and card-level details. Package descriptions and categories are cached by package.json modification time, so unchanged files are not re-read and edits surface on the next open. The plugin has zero dependencies, does not modify DeepSeek Harness source code, and its metadata endpoint is restricted to 127.0.0.1.

It is well suited for DSH users who frequently install, debug, or reorganize plugins: whether working with community solutions or custom builds, the unified live view makes it easy to confirm which modules are loaded and their current status at a glance, saving the back-and-forth between a terminal session and configuration files.
