dsh-computer-use_codex-style

When you run DeepSeek Harness on Windows and want the model to drive desktop applications and Chromium tabs the way Codex does, but the built-in Computer Use ships a decidedly different design, this plugin fills that gap. It reimplements all 13 Codex window2 tool methods—list_windows, get_window, click, type_text, scroll, set_value, drag, perform_secondary_action and more—with identical parameter names, defaults, return shapes and error strings, so the model interacts with the desktop in the exact vocabulary it already knows.

On the input side, SendInput delivers real keyboard and mouse events; the accessibility tree comes from Windows UI Automation; and screenshots are captured via Windows.Graphics.Capture, producing crisp images even when the target window is occluded. A visible status pill and an animated synthetic cursor keep you informed of every action, and pressing Esc aborts the turn at any moment. A local experience layer rounds out the loop: after each task the plugin writes concise, machine-specific notes that are replayed as advisory context before the next one, so the model gradually becomes familiar with your particular setup. An optional Python engine adds CDP and Playwright browser automation for web forms and pages that desktop tools alone cannot reach.

This plugin is aimed at developers running DeepSeek Harness on Windows 10/11 x64 who want to hand over computer operation to the model rather than having it only produce code, and who prefer the Codex interaction paradigm over a different tool semantics. It coexists safely alongside the official Computer Use—install both side by side and pick whichever fits the session.
