dsh-at-mention

Citing a project file inside the DSH composer used to mean typing out a long relative path by hand — error-prone and disruptive to your flow. dsh-at-mention borrows the interaction model from Claude Code and Codex Desktop: type @ in the input box and a prioritized fuzzy-search panel opens, scoped to the current session workspace, so referencing a file feels as natural as mentioning a person.

The ranking pipeline is carefully layered — exact name, name prefix, name substring, path prefix, path substring, then fuzzy subsequence — with shallower directories and shorter paths surfacing first, plus a bonus for matches at path-segment boundaries. The selected entry inserts as plain text (absolute or relative path is configurable), stays copyable and editable, and the session model resolves it against the workspace automatically. The panel is fully keyboard-driven (arrows to navigate, Tab or Enter to pick, Esc to close) and supports consecutive mentions such as @a @b. A persistent settings panel covers enable state, max results, path style, excluded directories, index file cap, auto-refresh interval, and a manual rebuild-index button with live status. Indexing uses find for fast traversal on Linux, WSL, and macOS, falling back to a pure readdir approach where find is absent (e.g. native Windows), with sensible defaults like excluding .git and node_modules that remain editable.

If you work in DSH daily, find yourself pasting file paths into conversations constantly, and want a smooth, keyboard-first experience that stays out of your way, this plugin is built for that workflow.
