About this plugin

dsh ships a web_search tool that talks to the official DeepSeek search endpoint by default. If you want a different backend behind that same tool, dsh-web-search-anysearch fills the gap. It registers an AnySearch provider that calls the v1/search API, and drops a settings card into the Plugins page of the web GUI where a single toggle routes the next query to either AnySearch or the built-in DeepSeek search—save and go, no restart.

The experience stays deliberately simple: anonymous requests work out of the box, and supplying an API key only raises the rate ceiling. Keys are stored in the credentials domain (.credentials.yaml or .env) and never leak into the settings file. Toggling the card re-routes only the very next web_search call; the official backend's key, endpoint, model, and budget remain managed by dsh's own Web search card, so the two setups never collide.

This plugin is for dsh web-GUI users who want a second search backend, who prefer AnySearch, or who like the flexibility of switching per session. Keep in mind it covers general search only—AnySearch verticals such as finance.quote and the /v1/extract endpoint are outside the web_search protocol.

Use Cases

  • Toggle between AnySearch and the official DeepSeek search from the plugin card, effective on the next query
  • Use AnySearch anonymously or raise the rate limit by adding an API key
  • Pin the search backend for an entire launch via profile patch, one-shot overlay, or environment variable

Best For

  • Developers who search daily through the dsh web GUI
  • Users who want multiple search backends and switch per session
  • Teams that prefer AnySearch or need centralized web_search provider management
