01What can it help you accomplish?
Discover and shortlist DeepSeek Harness plugins across the whole ecosystem
A categorized directory of well over a thousand community dsh plugins, each with a one-line description, across 19 categories (UI, usage & billing, themes, models & providers, memory, tools, vision, skills, workflow & automation, notifications, git, security, remote access, output, domain, development & runtime, plugin markets, just for fun)
DeepSeek Harness (dsh) users looking for the right community plugin for a specific job without scanning GitHub topics manually
Learn how DeepSeek Harness plugins work and install them
An orientation to dsh's everything-is-a-plugin Cordis architecture, the `dsh.bundle` manifest, the `dsh plugin --profile web add <plugin-name>` install command, and how to run the Web UI
Newcomers to DeepSeek Harness who need to understand what a dsh plugin is, how it installs, and how to start the Web UI before choosing plugins
Write and publish your own dsh plugin
A 4-step authoring checklist: scaffold a `dsh.bundle` manifest, tag the repo with the `dsh-plugin` GitHub topic, install locally to iterate, and read the harness architecture docs before touching the core agent loop

03DSH integration and capability boundaries
Curated awesome-list of the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) plugin ecosystem — a browsable catalog of community plugins, not a plugin installed into dsh itself
Categorized plugin catalog
the dsh-plugin GitHub ecosystem (well over a thousand community plugins at last count)→19 browsable categories, each entry linked to the actual plugin repo with a one-line description
DSH orientation & install reference
a fresh user of DeepSeek Harness→explanation of the everything-is-a-plugin Cordis architecture, the `dsh.bundle` manifest, and the plugin install command
Plugin-authoring checklist
a developer planning a new dsh plugin→4-step guide: scaffold manifest, tag with `dsh-plugin` topic, install locally to iterate, read architecture docs before touching the core loop
Third-party plugin risk notice
any plugin listed in the catalog→an explicit warning that listing is not a security review and source should be read before installing
04Who is it for? When not to use it?
Good for
- DeepSeek Harness (dsh) users looking for the right community plugin for a specific job without scanning GitHub topics manually
- Newcomers to DeepSeek Harness who need to understand what a dsh plugin is, how it installs, and how to start the Web UI before choosing plugins
- Plugin developers extending DeepSeek Harness
Not for
- Installing any third-party dsh plugin runs its code on your machine with your own permissions; being listed in this awesome-list is not a security review, so source must be read before installing.
- DeepSeek Harness itself is currently in developer preview, so the harness and its plugin APIs may still change.
05Compatibility, maintenance and safety notes
- Installing any third-party dsh plugin runs its code on your machine with your own permissions; being listed in this awesome-list is not a security review, so source must be read before installing.
- DeepSeek Harness itself is currently in developer preview, so the harness and its plugin APIs may still change.
- The ecosystem is large and fast-moving (well over a thousand plugins at last count), so individual entries may lag the actual state of the listed repos.

06Frequently asked questions
What is Awesome DSH Plugin?
A curated guide to DeepSeek Harness (`dsh`) — DeepSeek's open-source, everything-is-a-plugin coding agent — and the best community plugins built on it. It organizes well over a thousand plugins into 19 categories, each entry with a one-line description and a link to the actual repo.
How do I install a plugin from this list?
Plugins declare a `dsh.bundle` manifest and install with `dsh plugin --profile web add <plugin-name>`. To run the harness itself, start the Web UI with `npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web` (served at http://127.0.0.1:3080 by default) or build it from a source checkout.
Is being listed a security review?
No. Installing any third-party dsh plugin runs its code on your machine with your own permissions. The README explicitly says being listed is not a security review — read the source before installing, especially for plugins that touch credentials, the network, or your filesystem.
How do I write my own dsh plugin?
Scaffold a `dsh.bundle` manifest declaring what your plugin extends (model, tool, sandbox, UI, session store, or the agent loop itself), tag the repo with the `dsh-plugin` GitHub topic, install locally with `dsh plugin --profile web add <path-or-name>` to iterate, and read the harness architecture docs before touching the core agent loop.
