03DSH integration and capability boundaries
File-encoding tools for DeepSeek Harness (DSH).
Explicit encoding on read
Use `read({ file_path: "legacy.txt", encoding: "gbk" })` to read a GBK file explicitly.
Create files with an encoding
New files default to UTF-8 without BOM; `write` accepts an encoding for new files.
04Who is it for? When not to use it?
Good for
- DSH users working with GBK or Shift-JIS project files
Not for
- BOM-less non-UTF-8 files require an explicit encoding by default; automatic guessing is not a guarantee of the correct encoding.
- Other plugins registering the same tool names at the same scope conflict with this plugin.
- The `write` encoding parameter applies only to new files; existing files reject it with `E_ENCODING_NOT_APPLICABLE`.
05Compatibility, maintenance and safety notes

06Frequently asked questions
Does this DSH plugin guess all legacy encodings automatically?
No. BOM-less non-UTF-8 files require an explicit encoding by default; guessed encodings remain probabilistic.
How do I read a GBK file in DSH?
Use `read({ file_path: "legacy.txt", encoding: "gbk" })`.
Can `write` change the encoding of an existing DSH workspace file?
Its encoding parameter is for new files only; an existing file rejects that parameter.
