About this plugin

Managing user-level Skills in DeepSeek Harness has traditionally meant editing filesystem directories by hand. dsh-skill-manager plugs into the official settings page as a standalone extension, giving you a single place under Settings → Skills to inspect, install from a local folder or ZIP, update, enable, disable, and uninstall your custom Skills—all without modifying Harness source code or replacing the official skill registration, discovery, loading, and invocation pipeline.

The manager enforces a clear safety boundary: it only governs Skill directories carrying its own marker file, leaving project-builtin, manually installed, or plugin-provided Skills visible but read-only. Updates back up the previous version before replacing it, same-name overwrites are refused, and uninstalls move files to a recycling area instead of deleting them permanently. No Profile writes, no Harness restarts required; hot refresh is handled by the official filesystem Skill provider.

If you maintain several custom Skills in Harness and want a unified, safety-backed UI for their full lifecycle—without touching core code or the official routing layer—this plugin is built for that. The current release focuses on local folder and ZIP-based installation with conservative operational boundaries, intentionally deferring online marketplaces, auto-update sources, and cross-session batch enumeration until the core workflow is solid.

Use Cases

  • Manage installation, updates, and enable/disable of custom Skills via the settings page
  • Import Skill packages from local ZIP files instead of manually editing filesystem directories
  • Safely uninstall Skills with a recycling area backup to prevent irreversible data loss

Best For

  • Developers maintaining multiple custom Skills in DeepSeek Harness
  • Users who prefer a GUI over manual filesystem editing
  • Teams that need safety guardrails for Skill lifecycle management
