01What can it help you accomplish?
Give a DeepSeek Harness coding agent read-only access to your documents
Four read-only tools — weknora_search (hybrid retrieval), weknora_read_document (ordered passages), weknora_ask (cited answer), weknora_list_knowledge_bases (names + ids) — that let the agent query your knowledge bases
Teams that run DeepSeek Harness and want their agent to search internal docs / wikis without building retrieval themselves
Stand up an enterprise knowledge base with RAG, agents and auto-wiki
A self-hostable knowledge framework with RAG Q&A, a ReAct agent, Wiki Mode (auto-generated interlinked markdown + knowledge graph), and 20+ LLM providers
Engineering / knowledge teams that need document understanding, semantic retrieval and autonomous reasoning over private data
02How to install into DeepSeek Harness
Prerequisites
- Docker & Docker Compose and Git (to self-host WeKnora)
- A DeepSeek Harness (`dsh`) install — the plugin is added via the `dsh plugin` command
Installation steps
- 01
Self-host WeKnora: `git clone https://github.com/Tencent/WeKnora.git && cd WeKnora && cp .env.example .env && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d`, then open http://localhost
$ git clone https://github.com/Tencent/WeKnora.git && cd WeKnora && cp .env.example .env && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
- 02
Add the official dsh plugin: `dsh plugin --profile web add @wxg-prc-cpg/dsh-weknora` and point it at your WeKnora deployment
$ dsh plugin --profile web add @wxg-prc-cpg/dsh-weknora
- 03
(Optional) Manage WeKnora profiles via the CLI: `weknora profile add prod --host https://kb.example.com --use` then `weknora auth login`
Verify the integration
- After adding the plugin, confirm four read-only tools (weknora_search, weknora_read_document, weknora_ask, weknora_list_knowledge_bases) appear in the agent's tool set
03DSH integration and capability boundaries
Official DeepSeek Harness (`dsh`) plugin `@wxg-prc-cpg/dsh-weknora` — adds four read-only tools (weknora_search, weknora_read_document, weknora_ask, weknora_list_knowledge_bases) so a coding agent can query your WeKnora knowledge bases.
dsh plugin: 4 read-only knowledge tools
natural-language queries from a DeepSeek Harness agent→weknora_search (hybrid retrieval), weknora_read_document (ordered passages), weknora_ask (cited answer), weknora_list_knowledge_bases (names/ids)
read-only: the agent cannot create or modify knowledge basesRAG Q&A & ReAct agent
documents, wikis, FAQs→fast RAG answers and multi-step autonomous reasoning over knowledge bases
Wiki Mode (auto knowledge graph)
raw documents→self-maintaining interlinked markdown knowledge base with an interactive knowledge graph, revision history and one-click rollback
generates and maintains wiki pages in your knowledge base
04Who is it for? When not to use it?
Good for
- Teams that run DeepSeek Harness and want their agent to search internal docs / wikis without building retrieval themselves
- Engineering / knowledge teams that need document understanding, semantic retrieval and autonomous reasoning over private data
Not for
- Login authentication is on by default (v0.1.3+); for production, deploy in an internal / private network, avoid public exposure, and configure firewall and access controls.
05Compatibility, maintenance and safety notes
- The dsh plugin is read-only and requires a running WeKnora deployment (self-hosted via Docker Compose / Kubernetes / Helm); it cannot create or modify knowledge bases on its own.
- Login authentication is on by default (v0.1.3+); for production, deploy in an internal / private network, avoid public exposure, and configure firewall and access controls.
- The dsh plugin tools are read-only; API keys and MCP / data-source credentials are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM). The agent can search, read, and ask but never writes to knowledge bases.

06Frequently asked questions
How do I connect WeKnora to DeepSeek Harness?
Install the official plugin: `dsh plugin --profile web add @wxg-prc-cpg/dsh-weknora`, then point it at a running WeKnora deployment. Because the harness has no retrieval of its own, the plugin brings your documents in as four read-only tools.
What tools does the dsh plugin expose?
Four read-only tools: weknora_search (hybrid retrieval with verbatim passages + knowledge_id), weknora_read_document (ordered passages with paging), weknora_ask (WeKnora's cited answer over RAG / ReAct), and weknora_list_knowledge_bases (names + ids to scope search).
Do I need to self-host WeKnora first?
Yes. The plugin is read-only and points at an existing deployment. Self-host with `git clone https://github.com/Tencent/WeKnora.git`, configure .env, and `docker compose up -d` (or Helm on Kubernetes). Without a deployment the tools have nothing to query.
Can the agent modify my knowledge base?
No — the dsh tools are explicitly read-only; the agent can search, read, and ask, but cannot create or edit knowledge bases. Credentials are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM).
Which models does WeKnora support?
20+ providers including DeepSeek, OpenAI, Qwen, Zhipu, Hunyuan, Gemini, Ollama, and more, with swappable LLMs, vector DBs, and storage backends for local / private-cloud data sovereignty.
