dsh-simple-CLI

DeepSeek Harness (dsh) ships with web and headless profiles, but the pure-terminal experience has always felt thin. dsh-simple-cli closes that gap with a Claude-Code-style terminal CLI profile: ask questions, read reasoning stream in live, attach files, and approve tool calls—without ever leaving the keyboard.

Three capabilities stand out. First, streaming render: model reasoning collapses to a single live-updating line, while answer text and tool invocations (name, args, check/X result) paint frame-by-frame at roughly 30 fps so fast thinking never flickers the terminal. Second, the @ file picker: type @ to browse the working directory, filter by name, and navigate with arrows; a selected text file (up to 64 KB each) is attached to the message automatically, binary files stay as path references. Third, session control: inline slash commands (/model, /preset, /permission, /new, /clear, /exit) switch models, presets, and approval policies on the fly, and tool-call approvals are answered y/n right in the input area—all within a continuous multi-turn Agent session.

It is built for developers who live in a terminal, prefer a keyboard-driven workflow, and want a persistent back-and-forth conversation with DeepSeek without popping a browser tab. The entire UI is a zero-dependency, pure-ANSI mini-TUI; the only prerequisites are Node.js 22+ and a globally installed dsh.
