01What can it help you accomplish?
Apply minimalist coding rules
Session modes and skills for simplification, review and technical-debt tracking
DSH users working on coding tasks
02How to install into DeepSeek Harness
Prerequisites
- A DSH host is required; the plugin cannot run independently.
Installation steps
- 01
Run `dsh plugin --profile web add @mengyuly/dsh-ponytail`; replace web with your actual profile.
$ dsh plugin --profile web add @mengyuly/dsh-ponytail
- 02
Restart that profile, for example with `dsh web`.
$ dsh web
Verify the integration
- Run `/ponytail status` to see the effective mode and source, or `/ponytail help`; neither calls the model.
03DSH integration and capability boundaries
DSH system-prompt rules and on-demand coding skills
Session-level modes
Switch between lite, full, ultra and off; full is the default.
On-demand review and debt skills
Review changes for overengineering and collect ponytail comments into a debt ledger.
04Who is it for? When not to use it?
Good for
- DSH users working on coding tasks
Not for
- Enabled modes add a fixed prompt segment; token, cost or latency savings are not guaranteed.
- Session overrides exist only in memory; restart returns to the saved default.
05Compatibility, maintenance and safety notes
- Enabled modes add a fixed prompt segment; token, cost or latency savings are not guaranteed.
- Session overrides exist only in memory; restart returns to the saved default.
README claims; no independent runtime validation
06Frequently asked questions
How can I verify installation in DSH?
Restart the profile and run `/ponytail status`; it reports the mode and source without a model call.
Will this reduce DSH token usage?
Not guaranteed. Fixed rules add input, and benefits depend on the model and task.
Does my DSH session mode survive restart?
The in-memory override does not; the saved default applies after restart.
