dsh-word-vault

Remembering a new English word is easy in the moment; recalling it three days later is where most learners fall apart. dsh-word-vault closes that gap inside DeepSeek Harness. You copy a sentence the normal way, a small chip pops up near the top-right of your screen, you click only the word you actually want, and it lands in a per-user SQLite database with an LLM-generated gloss and real IPA pronunciation. Miss the click, hit Dismiss, or let it time out, and the clipboard content is simply ignored—so stray terminal snippets or config fragments never pollute your word list.

Once a word is in the vault the plugin offers three layers of depth. First, printable memory cards: each entry is broken into syllable blocks paired with a deliberately absurd mnemonic line, laid out eight-per A4 page with a dictation box and a check-off checkbox, exportable as HTML, PDF, or Word for a desk poster. Second, a built-in exam loop: English-to-Chinese multiple-choice questions whose prompts are drawn from the very sentence you copied when you first saved the word, instant server-side scoring, and a streak rule—three correct in a row earns a mastered badge, one wrong strips it. Third, a photo channel: point your camera at a homework sheet, deterministic computer vision isolates highlighted or circled printed words (fluorescent pens, red circles, red lines), an LLM reads only the printed text, and one call logs the whole sheet so you can undo it with a single click.

Who is it for? Parents managing a child’s vocabulary list, small-class English teachers running a word-recognition circuit, or any self-studier who wants to stop juggling a paper notebook and three apps. Every user gets an isolated library, a local read-only web dashboard that surfaces high-frequency-but-not-yet-mastered words, and a settings panel that hot-reloads the background helper without restarting the host. All data stays in local SQLite files and on-disk exports under 127.0.0.1; nothing leaves your machine, yet the study pipeline stays unbroken from capture to exam to printable card.
