Role-based Codex / Claude Code / ACP subagent providers for the DeepSeek Harness. Turns external agent CLIs into durable, continuable subagents with a declarative role library, per-role product permissions, delegation with a permission ceiling, and cross-platform process launching.
Features
- Continuable children — one-shot sync or async continuable (control with
send_message,list_agents,interrupt_agent; attach synchronously withproduct_wait). - Session continuity — a child's remote product session survives idle disposal and process restarts (durable registry + log markers; claude/codex resume by id, ACP reconnects).
- Declarative roles (
roles/*.json) —general(default),code-review,explore(never delegates),debug. Delegation defaults ON; a role can ban it. Unknown roles fall back togeneral. - Two-layer permission model — the relay model is always a read-only
pipe;
permissionMode(readonly/default/full) applies to the remote product and is mapped to each product's own CLI flags. - Permission ceiling — a child can never spawn a descendant with more permission than it has.
- Any ACP agent — add Cursor (
agent acp), CodeBuddy (cbc --acp), Gemini (gemini --acp) and more viaconfig.providers; no code needed. - Resource management — idle disposal, configurable timeouts, concurrency cap.
- Cross-platform — Windows
.cmdshims, Windows-safe path escaping; CI runs macOS / Ubuntu / Windows.
Requirements
- A DeepSeek Harness deployment (web profile).
- At least one product CLI on
PATHand authenticated:claude,codex, or an ACP CLI (opencode,agent,cbc, …). - Node ≥ 18.
Install
Recommended — dsh plugin add
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-plugin-product-subagents
That single command installs the package and wires the host-plane row
automatically: the plugin ships a cordis.patch.yml declared via
dsh.bundle in its package.json, so dsh plugin add registers it as a
profile layer (no manual cordis.patch.yml editing needed). Restart the
harness afterwards so the plugin loads.
To customise the plugin (e.g. add ACP providers), target the product-subagents
id in your profile's own cordis.patch.yml (~/.dsh/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml):
- id: product-subagents
config:
idleTimeoutMs: 600000
providers:
cursor: { type: acp, command: agent, args: [acp] }
codebuddy: { type: acp, command: cbc, args: [--acp] }
Note: a config override replaces the row's whole
configobject, so restate any keys you wish to keep (likeidleTimeoutMsabove).
Install via your agent (one line)
Paste this to your DeepSeek Harness agent (or any coding agent with shell access to the harness home) — it performs every step itself:
Install the
dsh-plugin-product-subagentsplugin into my DeepSeek Harness web profile: rundsh plugin --profile web add dsh-plugin-product-subagents, then tell me to restart the harness so the plugin loads.
Manual (advanced)
If you prefer to manage the profile yourself, use pnpm (not npm) inside the profile directory so peer dependencies are not auto-installed:
cd ~/.dsh/profiles/web
pnpm add dsh-plugin-product-subagents
Then add a host-plane row to your profile's cordis.patch.yml:
- insert:
- id: product-subagents
name: 'dsh-plugin-product-subagents'
config:
idleTimeoutMs: 600000
providers:
cursor: { type: acp, command: agent, args: [acp] }
codebuddy: { type: acp, command: cbc, args: [--acp] }
Quick start
In a session, the model has six tools:
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
product_delegate |
delegate a task under a role (sync or continuable) |
product_roles |
list the role library |
product_submit |
per-child bridge (continuable children only) |
subagent_progress |
status + internal trace of one child |
product_wait |
block until a child settles, return its answer |
product_agents |
provider availability + live children |
product_delegate role=general task="Refactor demo-project/calc.js and run its tests"
product_wait subagent_id=<childId>
Configuration
config:
providers: { cursor: { type: acp, command: agent, args: [acp] } }
idleTimeoutMs: 600000 # settled children release their remote session
# after this idle period (0 disables)
maxConcurrentChildren: 8 # cap on simultaneous continuable children
rolesDir: <path> # declarative role library (default: roles/)
registryPath: <path> # durable remote-session registry
Roles and permissions
Each role file:
{
"id": "code-review",
"description": "Review code for bugs, security, maintainability (read-only).",
"provider": "claude-code",
"permissionMode": "readonly",
"allowDelegation": true,
"instructions": "You are a code reviewer. READ-ONLY: never modify files. …"
}
permissionModemaps to product flags:readonly(claude--permission-mode plan/ codex--sandbox read-only),full(claude--dangerously-skip-permissions/ codex--dangerously-bypass-approvals-and-sandbox).- The relay model never gets write-capable tools, in every role.
- Delegation is capped:
readonly < default < full; a child cannot spawn a descendant with a higher mode.
Custom ACP providers
config.providers accepts any ACP-capable CLI — the generic bridge handles a
persistent process, session/load resume, and dead-process reconnect:
providers:
cursor: { type: acp, command: agent, args: [acp] } # Cursor CLI
codebuddy: { type: acp, command: cbc, args: [--acp] } # CodeBuddy
gemini: { type: acp, command: gemini, args: [--acp] } # Gemini CLI
opencode: { type: acp, command: opencode, args: [acp] } # opencode
Providers appear in the delegation enum only when their command is detected
on PATH. Built-ins (claude-code, codex, acp) can be overridden with
the same keys.
Development
npm install
npm test # node:test — pure logic + fake bridge, no CLIs or keys
npm run lint # syntax-check every module
See docs/ARCHITECTURE.md for the bridge contract, the permission model, and how to add products. CI runs the suite on macOS / Ubuntu / Windows × Node 18/20/22.
Security
This is a configuration-as-trust-boundary tool: it spawns whatever CLIs
you configure, and full passes the products' own "bypass all permission
checks" flags. See SECURITY.md.
