01What can it help you accomplish?
Use a curated DSH coding environment.
Interactive Web UI and one-shot headless task profiles with coding tools.
Developers using DeepSeek Harness.
02How to install into DeepSeek Harness
Prerequisites
- The npm channel requires Node.js ^22.19.0 or >=24.0.0. Native Windows npm is untested; use WSL2 for the documented Windows path.
Installation steps
- 01
Install the npm developer channel: `npm install --global oh-my-dsh`.
$ npm install --global oh-my-dsh
- 02
Run `omd setup` to install or upgrade the omd and omd-headless profiles under ~/.dsh/profiles/. First setup may take several minutes.
- 03
Run `omd` to start the Web UI.
Verify the integration
- Run `omd doctor` to inspect installation status.
Rollback
- Uninstall the npm package with `npm uninstall -g oh-my-dsh`. The ~/.dsh/ user profiles and sessions are retained.
03DSH integration and capability boundaries
Native DSH bundle and curated distribution, layered over upstream rather than a fork.
Stale-safe editing and LSP navigation
Workspace files and LSP queries→Anchored multi-line replacements and read-only symbol navigation
hash_edit modifies workspace files after filesystem version checks.Lazy MCP activation
Imported or preset MCP server definitions→Imported MCP definitions remain inert until approved activation; discovery does not start a process or expose tool schemas.
Approved activation starts the MCP server for the current session.
04Who is it for? When not to use it?
Good for
- Developers using DeepSeek Harness.
Not for
- Native Windows has no portable archive, installer or CI job. The documented Windows route is WSL2; npm on native Windows is untested.
- An activated plugin runs in-process with the harness’s full environment, filesystem and network privileges; activation uses a proposal and user approval.
05Compatibility, maintenance and safety notes
- Native Windows has no portable archive, installer or CI job. The documented Windows route is WSL2; npm on native Windows is untested.
- An activated plugin runs in-process with the harness’s full environment, filesystem and network privileges; activation uses a proposal and user approval.
README claims pinned to a commit; runtime not tested.
06Frequently asked questions
Is oh-my-dsh a DeepSeek Harness fork?
No. It is a native curated distribution layered over upstream, published as a formal dsh bundle.
Does importing MCP configuration start servers?
Imported MCP definitions remain inert until approved activation; discovery does not start a process or expose tool schemas.
Can I use it on native Windows?
Native Windows has no portable archive, installer or CI job. The documented Windows route is WSL2; npm on native Windows is untested.
How do I check the DSH distribution installation?
Run `omd doctor` to inspect installation status.

08Data and sources
The published package is a formal dsh bundle.
It is a native curated distribution, not a fork.
Upstream is in developer preview, so `oh-my-dsh` pins one tested release and never follows breaking changes silently.
