dsh-workspace-explorer-picker

When you click Add workspace in DeepSeek Harness Desktop, the default flow opens a directory browser rendered inside the web GUI. That in-app picker is limited: it can struggle with network drives, exFAT or FAT32 volumes, and simply lacks the polish of a native dialog. dsh-workspace-explorer-picker removes that constraint entirely. The moment you click ADD workspace, the real Windows Explorer folder chooser opens - with Quick Access, breadcrumbs, live search, and the ability to create a new folder on the fly.

Under the hood the plugin is renderless: it ships no UI code of its own and leans on the Electron dialog.showOpenDialog bridge to invoke the OS-level folder picker. It installs into your user profile ($DSH_HOME), so Desktop updates that replace Program Files never touch it. You can install it from the DSH Community Market, via npm, or with a simple manual copy; the installer script is idempotent and safe to re-run. There are no volume restrictions - local disks, network shares, and removable media all work out of the box.

This plugin is for anyone on Windows who uses DeepSeek Harness Desktop and wants a frictionless, native folder-selection experience, especially if you regularly mount network paths or non-NTFS partitions as workspaces. Install once, and every subsequent Add workspace click goes straight to the Explorer dialog, free from the constraints of a web-rendered browser.
