dsh-chat-outline

When using DeepSeek Harness for lengthy, multi-turn conversations, scrolling back and forth through accumulating content becomes cumbersome and it’s easy to lose context. The dsh-chat-outline plugin is designed to solve this core pain point. It adds a persistent sidebar to the left of the chat interface, automatically organizing the entire conversation into a clear "question-reply" turn outline, giving you an at-a-glance structure of the session.

The plugin’s core capability lies in providing fast, precise conversation navigation. A single click on any entry in the sidebar scrolls the view to the corresponding message, with a blue frame marking your current reading position. For deeper analysis, holding Ctrl/Shift while clicking jumps directly to the same position in the Trajectory view, making it easy to correlate the conversation with execution details. The plugin also offers two modes: "Light" for zero-overhead browsing of only the loaded portion, and "Full" which proactively loads the entire history to cover the whole session, allowing users to choose based on session length and performance needs.

This plugin is especially suited for power users of DeepSeek Harness who regularly handle long and complex dialogues. This includes developers conducting in-depth technical debugging, researchers engaged in multi-turn scholarly discussions, or project managers who need to repeatedly refer back to key information. It significantly boosts information retrieval efficiency, helping users quickly locate critical points within verbose conversations, allowing them to focus more on the content itself rather than wasting time on endless scrolling.
