Free, keyless web_search and web_fetch for the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) — DuckDuckGo-backed, no signup. Unofficial community project.
Install DeepSeek Harness Web Tools
Installs but activates nothing: package.json has no `dsh.bundle` declaration, so `dsh plugin` warns and loads no config layer.
This repository is not a DSH plugin
package.json declares no dsh.bundle. In the official docs' own words, a package like this “still installs, but only as a plain dependency: dsh plugin prints a warning and activates no layer”. The install looks like it worked and nothing happens.What it actually is: Free, keyless web_search and web_fetch for the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) — DuckDuckGo-backed, no signup. Unofficial community project. If that is what you came for, use it directly from the repository — it is just not something dsh plugin add can activate.
Before you run it
- A plugin runs with your permissions once loaded: it can read your files, use your credentials and reach the network. Tool approvals do not sandbox it.
- Installing from git resolves a moving branch. Pin a commit —
github:tonyd2wild/DeepSeek-Harness-Web-Tools#<commit-sha>— so the code you reviewed is the code you install.
