dsh-with-chatgpt

The web version of ChatGPT is a powerful reasoning engine, yet it is confined to the browser: it cannot read your local project, edit source files, or run a single terminal command. DSH, on the other hand, can genuinely operate on your codebase, but a large share of its token budget is often spent simply understanding project structure and context. DSH with ChatGPT closes that gap. Powered by the Agent Helm local runtime, it lets ChatGPT get hands-on coding directly in the browser—searching code, modifying files, running builds and tests, inspecting Diagnostics and Git status—while seamlessly handing off well-scoped, complex tasks as native DSH sessions for sustained local execution. When DSH finishes, ChatGPT can re-review the actual code diff and test results, completing a full loop from idea to verified change.

Every task created through ChatGPT is a standard DSH session. You can inspect its execution status, continue interacting, or take over manually from the DSH Web interface at any moment, with no need to juggle between two separate systems. All work is preserved in Work History, so you can pick up a thread even after leaving the original conversation. Security is handled at every layer: ChatGPT's local operations are governed by Agent Helm permissions and sandboxing, while DSH tasks follow the permissions and sandbox configuration of their respective sessions, ensuring your project code never leaves your machine.

This plugin is ideal for developers who use web-based ChatGPT for everyday coding but rely on DSH for large refactors, long builds, or continuous integration tasks. If you want lightweight edits and code comprehension handled instantly by ChatGPT while reserving your DSH token budget for work that truly demands deep, sustained execution, this is the most natural bridge between the two.
