dsh-skill-market

Installing a new skill into DeepSeek Harness used to mean a multi-step ritual: browsing GitHub in the browser, cloning a repo in the terminal, locating the SKILL.md files, copying them into the user skill directory, and restarting the web service. dsh-skill-market collapses that workflow into a single panel on the settings page, so you can search, preview, and install without ever leaving the browser.

The plugin works in two layers. The host half registers a set of API routes that handle GitHub repo search, directory-layout inspection, tarball download from codeload.github.com, extraction, and writing each skill into the install directory. The browser half is a hand-authored bundle with no build step, rendering two tabs (Skill Market and Installed) inside the settings panel. Install is one click; uninstall is safe by design since skills are moved to a .trash- folder rather than deleted. Anonymous search is capped at roughly ten requests per minute; supplying a GitHub token via environment variable or a token file lifts that ceiling.

It is built for people who already run DeepSeek Harness and find themselves regularly exploring community skills but do not want to juggle git and file operations by hand. The browser side depends only on the react entry in the module table, and the host side relies solely on Node built-ins, keeping the footprint small and the setup free of extra build tooling.
