dsh-deepseek-billing

When using the DeepSeek Harness web interface for AI development and debugging, users often need to monitor API call costs, but the native interface lacks direct visibility into account balance or real-time session expenses, requiring them to refer to a separate billing page, which disrupts workflow. The dsh-deepseek-billing plugin addresses this by adding a persistent balance card to the Harness web interface, displaying account balance and current session estimated cost at a glance in the bottom of the left sidebar.

The plugin's core capabilities include real-time tracking and visualization of expenses: the card auto-refreshes every 60 seconds, supports clicking to expand detailed token usage breakdowns, such as input, cache hit, and output token counts with fee subtotals, along with cache hit rate and current rate notes. It uses per-request pricing to ensure session cost estimation accurately reflects actual consumption, while maintaining a clean interface that auto-hides when the sidebar is collapsed.

This plugin is ideal for developers, data scientists, or anyone who frequently uses DeepSeek Harness and needs to monitor API costs. Whether for personal projects or team collaboration, it helps you stay informed about spending, avoid unexpected overages, and makes cost management more intuitive and convenient. The plugin is designed for security, not storing API keys, only using them temporarily, ensuring data safety.
