About this plugin
The DeepSeek Harness Web server listens on localhost by default, so other devices on the same LAN cannot reach it. Setting up a reverse proxy or tweaking firewall rules manually is both tedious and error-prone, especially when the DSH trustedHosts whitelist is easily overlooked, causing requests to be rejected by the security policy.
dsh-tcp-forward keeps things simple: it starts a transparent TCP forward on 0.0.0.0:3081 (default) that relays the DSH Web port across the entire local network, and automatically registers the corresponding LAN listener addresses in DSH trustedHosts so you never have to maintain the whitelist by hand. If port 3081 is already taken, just set the DSH_TCP_FORWARD_PORT environment variable to pick any free port without touching a single config file.
It is perfect for teams or individuals who use the DSH Web UI in multi-device settings such as an office or home, and want a single command to make the interface reachable from any LAN device without pulling in nginx, Caddy, or other reverse-proxy tooling.
Use Cases
- Open the DSH Web UI from other devices on the same office network without SSH tunnels or reverse proxies.
- Expose DSH to a tablet or phone behind a home router without manually configuring firewall rules per address.
- Run multiple DSH instances side by side, assigning each a distinct port via DSH_TCP_FORWARD_PORT.
Best For
- Small teams in an office or home who use DSH and want cross-device Web access with a single command.
- Developers who want minimal-config LAN exposure instead of spinning up nginx or Caddy.
- Ops and product people who need a fast way to demo the DSH UI or collaborate on the front end.
