dsh-whale-pet

When running Agent tasks in DeepSeek Harness, the Web interface is often just a stream of logs and progress bars. dsh-whale-pet places a whale-girl mascot in the bottom-right corner so every Agent state gets a matching animation and expression: holding a laptop while working, tilting her head while waiting for your reply, cheering with a random voice clip when a task completes, and floating quietly when idle. You can tell at a glance what the Agent is doing right now, without constantly refreshing the log.

The plugin injects via the official shell.overlay slot as a React component, leaving business DOM untouched. A five-state machine (working, waiting, completed, celebrate, idle) tracks the Agent in real time, and a transition-edge detector ensures the celebration voice plays exactly once per completion. All illustrations and audio are served from the host static route locally—no external requests, no telemetry—and the plugin respects the system prefers-reduced-motion preference.

If you enjoy the sense of companionship a desktop pet brings and want it to actually sync with your workflow, this plugin is made for DeepSeek Harness users. The character art and voice samples come from open-source projects in the DeepSeek community; the plugin code itself is MIT-licensed, and swapping art, voice lines, or labels for custom builds is straightforward.
