dsh-notify

DeepSeek Harness excels at long autonomous runs, but those few seconds when an agent ends a turn or pauses waiting for your answer or approval vanish the instant your eyes leave the conversation window. Tab in the background, tab closed—either way you end up scrolling through history later, trying to remember what just happened.

dsh-notify subscribes to the host-side event bus in observe-only mode: it fires a native WinRT toast with the default Windows sound, then calls next() so the real handler still receives the request untouched. It covers three triggers—a turn ending (completed, error, blocked, or max-tokens), the harness asking you a question, and the harness requesting your approval for a tool call. Each channel is independently toggleable, end-reasons can be filtered, and subagent sessions stay silent by default to avoid a torrent of toasts during multi-agent runs. The plugin registers its own AppUserModelID, showing up as a distinct DSH Notify entry in Windows notification settings instead of hiding behind the Windows PowerShell toggle that silently killed earlier releases.

If you run DeepSeek Harness on Windows 10 or 11 for extended autonomous sessions, juggle multiple conversations, or simply want a gentle chime telling you something needs your attention without repeatedly switching back to check the tab, this plugin is built for you. It never blocks the agent loop, swallows notification failures silently, and on non-Windows platforms it loads and stays completely inert.
