About this plugin

DeepSeek splits each day (UTC) into a peak window (08:30-16:30, 2x price) and an off-peak window (16:30-08:30, 1x price). That information is buried in pricing docs and easy to miss mid-session. dsh-offpeak places a single status pill right under the composer in the DeepSeek Harness Web GUI, showing the current window, the price multiplier, and a live countdown to the next switch. On hover or keyboard focus a detail panel expands with the effective per-1M prices for input, cache-hit, and output tokens plus the next switch time in your local timezone.

Everything is computed in the browser from prices you type into the settings panel. The plugin registers no tools, no commands, no system-prompt text, makes no network calls, and has zero token cost on every request. Setting changes take effect instantly with no restart. Uninstalling it leaves nothing behind beyond its own settings section.

Built for developers who call the DeepSeek API regularly and want to check the current billing tier at a glance while writing code or iterating on prompts. If you do not care about the peak-vs-off-peak split, or work exclusively through the CLI rather than the Web interface, this plugin adds nothing for you.
