dsh-github

In a DeepSeek Harness conversation you often need to look up a repository, skim an issue, or pull a file from an open-source project, yet that forces you to leave the terminal and fire up a browser. dsh-github brings that work back into the chat: once installed, the agent instantly gains two web-connected tools, with no manual API calls or scripting on your side.

Two commands do the heavy lifting. github_search speaks native GitHub search syntax so you can narrow results by repository, issue, or pull request. github_get retrieves a single resource in full, whether that is repository metadata, an issue or PR body, or a decoded file. Out of the box it runs anonymously at 60 requests per hour per IP; drop in a read-only fine-grained token and code search unlocks while the rate ceiling climbs to 5000 per hour. The plugin is strictly read-only by design, never creates issues, comments, or code, sends the token exclusively to api.github.com, and refuses every redirect as a credential-safety guard.

It suits developers, technical writers, and small teams who want their Harness workflow to reference open-source project information inline. No token is required to get started, and adding a read-only token is entirely optional, making it a zero-friction, lightweight extension to the conversations you already have.
