About this plugin
The default DeepSeek Harness Web UI is a clean white canvas that can start to feel bland after a while. dsh-background lets you swap in any local image or an entire folder as your Web background, with sequential or random slideshow, cross-fade transitions, and per-slide intervals, so the first thing you see each day is the visual you actually like.\n\nOnce the wallpaper is in place, every layer is tunable: fill mode (center, cover, contain, stretch), overall opacity, background blur, overlay colour and opacity, and panel opacity all work independently. The left sidebar and the message input are semi-transparent by default, letting the wallpaper bleed through for a more layered feel. Toggle on a petal or snowfall effect, dial in the density and speed, and the coding session gets a touch of atmosphere. All images are served over a local HTTP route, so nothing leaves your machine and no third-party service is involved.\n\nIt is built for DSH Web-Profile developers who want a personal, image-first workspace. If you already collect wallpapers or landscape photos and would rather keep them local instead of pointing at a remote URL, this is the low-friction way to make them work as your daily UI background. Flip the toggle off and the default interface comes right back, with zero side effects.
