About this plugin

When working under WSL with the DeepSeek Harness web UI, the built-in workspace-directory picker has a painful blind spot: the dialog opens at the Linux home directory, its breadcrumb trail folds right there, and Windows drives at /mnt/c, /mnt/d, and beyond are reachable only through a nearly invisible pencil-glyph path editor. For developers who shuttle between Windows and Linux file systems every day, that workflow is both awkward and slow.

dsh-wsl-workspace-picker swaps in a single-pane browser that makes every path reachable at a glance. A row of quick-access chips at the top jumps straight to Home, the filesystem root, and each mounted Windows drive; an always-visible path input accepts any absolute path with a simple Enter press; and a full breadcrumb chain from / lets you climb up and down the entire tree without hitting a home-folding dead end. New-folder creation and a hidden-files toggle are retained, so the enhanced dialog feels like a natural extension of the stock one.

It is a pure client-side UI plugin: no host-side code is injected, no network connections are opened, and all directory listing and creation ride on the same browse capability the stock dialog already uses. It is ideal for developers running DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6 or later (web profile) under WSL who regularly need to reach Windows drives from the workspace picker.
