dsh-quote

Quoting a specific passage from earlier in a chat thread usually means copy, paste, and manually slapping on a format marker — a clunky, interruptive flow. dsh-quote brings the familiar ChatGPT-style select-and-quote experience to dsh web: highlight any text in a message and a small Quote button appears right at your cursor; clicking it surfaces a subtle, low-contrast hint above the input box that stays out of your way, and the reference is automatically prepended to your message the moment you hit send (return key, send button, or interjection all work). The hint vanishes after sending, and a single × click cancels it at any time.

Under the hood the plugin is entirely client-side with zero runtime dependencies and no build step. It loads automatically through the dsh.client manifest, and its selection detection works on plain text selection outside editable areas — no special DOM markers required. One caveat: the draft is written through the conversation.input.dock slot, so a handful of heavily customised themes that hide that slot may not show the hint. Also, if you cancel a quote after it has already been spliced into the draft, remove the > Quote: … line manually.

If you spend long sessions in dsh web doing deep multi-turn conversations and frequently need to reference an earlier sentence, anchor a discussion point, or ask the model to react to a specific passage, dsh-quote turns quoting into a two-second gesture: select, click, send.
