About this plugin

Running long conversations in the DeepSeek Harness web profile usually means leaving the app to check whether you are in an off-peak window, how much credit is left, and how much this session has already cost. dsh-deepseek-cost-watch folds all three pieces of information directly into the interface you are already working in, replacing two throw-away dynamic plugins with one permanent, dependency-free package of just two JavaScript files.

The core experience lives in two spots. A floating card in the bottom-right corner refreshes every second to show off-peak (green, half price) or peak (amber) status, a countdown to the next flip, the account balance, and the fixed schedule in both UTC and your local timezone, all collapsible into a small pill. Above the composer, a cost line gives a history-aware estimate for the open session: every billed request is priced at the rate card that was in force when it actually happened, so a session that spans a tier change is split correctly instead of being priced entirely at today's rate. The API key is used exclusively in the Host process and never reaches the browser.

This plugin is for anyone using the DeepSeek Harness web profile for daily development or long-form generation who wants an at-a-glance read on the current billing tier, remaining credit, and session spend without hand-maintaining two short-lived dynamic plugins. Install it, restart the profile, and both the badge and the cost line appear immediately.

Use Cases

  • Check real-time off-peak vs peak status mid-conversation before launching a heavy request
  • Review the full session cost, with each request priced at the rate card in effect when it ran
  • Confirm remaining DeepSeek account credit without leaving the Harness web profile

Best For

  • Engineers using the DeepSeek Harness web profile for daily development
  • Teams that want to stay on top of API spend and exploit off-peak discounts
  • Heavy users who prefer a permanent plugin over throw-away scripts to track cost
