03DSH integration and capability boundaries
dsh plugin that adds manual context exclusion and editing as a first-class, reversible context-management option within DeepSeek Harness
Exclude & restore context
selected conversation items (User / AI / Reasoning / Answer / Tool)→context excluded with later restore while preserving the original Session
Excluding or editing context changes the model-input prefix, so cached prompt content after the changed position may no longer be reusableEdit messages with undo
User messages and AI Answers→edited messages with restore and undo
The original Session remains preservedSearch & filter
conversation content→search matches with navigation between them; filtered views of User, AI, Reasoning, Answer, and Tool content
04Who is it for? When not to use it?
Good for
- Developers and AI-agent users running long sessions who need controllable, reversible context management
- Users who want to fix mistakes or refine earlier turns while preserving the original conversation
05Compatibility, maintenance and safety notes
- Excluding or editing context changes the model-input prefix, so cached prompt content after the earliest changed position may no longer be reusable; exact behavior depends on the Agent host, model, and provider. Changes near the end of a Session usually affect less cached context than changes near the beginning.
- Manual context exclusion and editing are optional controls for cases where automatic compaction is not what you want; they complement prompt steering and automatic context compaction rather than replacing them, and are not something users need to manage continuously.

06Frequently asked questions
What is Agent Context Editor for?
It is a cross-agent plugin for manually excluding and editing AI conversation context. It helps fight context rot in long-running sessions by hiding failed attempts, stale conclusions, and irrelevant Tool output while keeping the original Session intact.
Does editing or excluding context affect prompt caching?
Yes. Excluding or editing context changes the model-input prefix, so cached prompt content after the earliest changed position may no longer be reusable. Changes near the end of a Session usually affect less cached context than changes near the beginning. The original Session remains preserved.
Is this a replacement for automatic context compaction?
No. Manual context exclusion and editing are optional controls for cases where the automatic result is not what you want. They complement prompt steering and automatic context compaction rather than replacing them.
