dsh-gui

The official DeepSeek Harness Web UI is fully featured, but using it still means spinning up a service in a terminal and then juggling a browser tab. dsh-gui collapses that into a single desktop icon: double-click to launch, and the official front-end appears inside a native Electron window while the dsh kernel starts on localhost on demand—no browser required.

It ships as a native dsh plugin that auto-creates and idempotently refreshes a desktop shortcut (with icon and hidden-console launch). On the kernel side it stays deliberately low-coupled: it speaks only the dsh host-api proxy wire protocol, imports no external framework packages, and neither bundles nor pins versions—after an official dsh upgrade a simple restart picks it up, with adaptive fallbacks for startup flags and method aliases. The renderer runs under contextIsolation and sandbox, and all external links are handed off to the system default browser so the window never degenerates into a general-purpose browser shell.

Ideal for users who already have the dsh CLI installed and want to skip the open-terminal-then-open-browser ritual, and for those who want a persistent, click-to-launch DeepSeek workbench on Windows that keeps receiving official front-end updates without worrying about the shell going stale.
