About this plugin
You are coding and managing projects inside the DSH Web UI, yet you still need to hop back to a local terminal for a quick command. dsh-terminal removes that friction entirely. It hooks into a real PTY: the host process spawns a genuine system shell via node-pty (ConPTY on Windows), so signals, pipes, color output, and interactive programs behave exactly as they would in your native terminal—no emulation layer in between.
The core experience centers on multi-tab sessions and flexible window layout. Open several shell tabs running different tasks in parallel; collapse the panel and the host-side sessions keep going unperturbed. In dock mode, drag the top edge to resize the height; in float mode, reposition the window freely and resize in any of eight directions. The first session launches in the current workspace directory by default, and subsequent sessions can target any path you choose. The rendering layer is xterm.js 6, giving you full-color output, cursor control, a 5000-line scrollback buffer, and Ctrl+Shift+C/V clipboard shortcuts out of the box.
This plugin is ideal for developers and DevOps engineers who already work inside DeepSeek Harness and want to finish both coding and terminal work in a single browser window without reaching for a local shell. Windows users in particular benefit from the free switching between cmd.exe, PowerShell, and Git Bash, plus safe process-tree termination that eliminates common environment-setup headaches.
Use Cases
- Run build and debug commands directly inside DSH Web UI without switching to a local terminal
- Open multiple shell tabs in parallel for different project tasks; sessions keep running when collapsed
- Complete the full workflow from environment checks to deployment in a single browser window during remote cloud development
Best For
- Full-stack engineers doing remote or cloud-native development with DeepSeek Harness
- DevOps engineers who want to minimize local toolchain dependencies and work entirely in the browser
- Independent developers managing multiple shell sessions across parallel project contexts
