@rdmu/create-dsh-plugin

简体中文

Scaffold a DeepSeek Harness plugin project — a working plugin with one model-facing tool, a profile bundle that mounts it, dsh's own toolchain, and everything an agent needs to answer dsh questions from dsh itself.

What makes it different

• The version is the contract. @rdmu/create-dsh-plugin@0.1.5-rc.2.rev.1 generates a project pinned to @deepseek-ai/dsh-*@0.1.5-rc.2 — exactly, no caret. There is no --dsh-version flag, because one fact should not have two sources of truth.
• The generated project reads dsh instead of guessing at it. pnpm install fetches that release's full source at its immutable tag and indexes it as a code graph; .mcp.json and a dsh-source skill wire it to whichever agent opens the project. The guides cover the common path and say where they stop.
• It is a working plugin, not a placeholder. A typed tool with a canonical output value, a prompt section, an invariant companion, and tests that mount the real dsh services and assert the registration is withdrawn on disposal.
• dsh's own toolchain, unchanged. oxlint (type-aware), tsc project references, tsdown, and vitest with a per-file 100% coverage floor — so a plugin developed here already meets the standard dsh holds its own packages to.
• Two shapes, one template. One flat package by default; --layout workspace when the project will hold more than one. The same code either way.
• What you install is verified end to end. The release gate packs a real tarball, installs it, generates from the published layout in both shapes, and runs each generated project's own check — so a missing files entry or a stale lib/ fails here rather than on your machine.

Usage

One-off, nothing installed globally:

npm create @rdmu/dsh-plugin my-plugin
# or
pnpm create @rdmu/dsh-plugin my-plugin
# or
npx @rdmu/create-dsh-plugin my-plugin

Or install it once and use the command directly:

npm install -g @rdmu/create-dsh-plugin

create-dsh-plugin my-plugin
create-dsh-plugin my-plugin --scope @acme --plugin word-count

A global install also puts dsh-trace on your PATH — see below.

Options

create-dsh-plugin <directory> [options]

  --scope <scope>   npm scope for the generated packages, e.g. @acme
  --plugin <name>   role name for the example plugin (default: hello)
  --layout <mode>   single or workspace (default: single)
  --force           write into a directory that already has contents
  -V, --version     the scaffold version, which is also the targeted dsh version
  -h, --help

--plugin word-count renames the package, its directory, the Cordis plugin name, and the tool (word_count_greet) in one pass — you get a project that reads as yours, not as a template you have to find-and-replace.

The version is the contract

This package's version IS the dsh version it targets, plus our revision of it. @rdmu/create-dsh-plugin@0.1.5-rc.2.rev.1 generates a project pinned to @deepseek-ai/dsh-*@0.1.5-rc.2 — exactly, no caret. There is no --dsh-version flag, because that would be a second source of truth for one fact.

0.1.5-rc.2.rev.1
└── dsh ──┘ └─┬─┘
             our first release targeting that dsh; a scaffold-only fix ships .rev.2

The .rev.N suffix exists because npm never lets a version be republished: a fix to the scaffold itself, with no new dsh behind it, still needs a new number. It is cut off before it reaches a generated project's dependencies.

To target a different dsh release, pick that scaffold release:

npm create @rdmu/dsh-plugin@0.1.5-rc.2.rev.1 my-plugin

dsh packages are cut as one set and are not independently compatible, so an exact pin is the honest range: a caret would let your project install a dsh this scaffold was never tested against.

What you get

By default, one package — the plugin — with the bundle beside it:

my-plugin/
  package.json             this package IS the plugin, and carries the project's scripts
  src/                     a typed tool, a prompt section, an invariant companion
  tests/                   its tests, mounting the real dsh services
  bundle/                  the patch layer that mounts it into a dsh profile
  docs/                    authoring guides, plus how to read dsh's contract off disk
  scripts/dsh-graph.ts     fetch the pinned dsh source and index it as a code graph
  scripts/dsh-trace.ts     read any dsh dependency's contract from disk
  .mcp.json                the codegraph MCP server, wired for whichever agent opens the project
  AGENTS.md                the conventions an agent must follow in this project

--layout workspace puts the same code in a pnpm workspace instead, for a project that will hold more than one package:

my-plugin/
  packages/
    plugin/hello/          the plugin
    bundle/hello-bundle/   the bundle
  pnpm-workspace.yaml      packages/*/*
  tsconfig.json            the aggregate solution `tsc -b` builds
  …                        docs/, scripts/, .mcp.json, AGENTS.md as above

Both shapes carry the same toolchain, copied from deepseek-harness so a plugin developed here builds under the same rules as dsh's own packages: oxlint (type-aware), tsc project references, tsdown, and vitest with a per-file 100% coverage floor.

First steps in the generated project

cd my-plugin
pnpm install
pnpm run check        # typecheck + lint + test + build

pnpm run check passing means the plugin compiles under dsh's compiler settings, its tool schema is valid, it mounts over the real dsh tool registry, and it withdraws cleanly on disposal.

The generated project needs pnpm, even though the scaffold itself runs under npm. It is a pnpm workspace with autoInstallPeers: false, which is what keeps your unfilled dsh peer dependencies falling through to the profile's installation fallback instead of installing a second copy of Cordis — two copies means two service stores, and a plugin that registers into a registry nobody reads.

Then run it inside dsh

The fastest loop — add a row to your machine-level user layer, which dsh hot-reloads:

# $DSH_HOME/cordis.patch.yml  (defaults to ~/.dsh/cordis.patch.yml)
- insert:
    - id: plugin-hello
      name: '@acme/dsh-plugin-hello'
      config:
        defaultLanguage: zh

The distributable route packs the bundle and installs it into a profile:

pnpm run pack:bundle
dsh plugin --profile tui add ./acme-dsh-bundle-hello-0.0.0.tgz
dsh --profile tui --dump-config    # confirm the row is in the composed tree

All four routes, the layer order that decides which override wins, and the no-pnpm path are in the generated docs/loading-into-dsh.md.

Reading dsh without guessing

A generated project answers dsh questions from dsh, along two routes it sets up for itself.

Implementation. pnpm install fetches the pinned release's full source to .dsh-source/dsh-v<version>/ — one shallow clone at the immutable release tag, derived from the installed manifest so it cannot be a different version — and indexes it with codegraph. An agent queries it through the codegraph MCP server the generated .mcp.json wires up, or a person through the CLI:

codegraph explore 'how tool timeouts are enforced' --path .dsh-source/dsh-v0.1.5-rc.2
pnpm run dsh:graph --dry-run   # what it would fetch and index, offline

Roughly a minute and ~340 MB on first install. Neither the source nor the index is committed — the tag reproduces both — and the whole step is best-effort: no git, no network, or no codegraph binary leaves pnpm install succeeding with a printed reason, and DSH_GRAPH=0 skips it. The project's own code is indexed as a separate graph, so a plugin's blast radius never includes all of dsh.

Contract. dsh-trace prints where one installed package's promise can be read:

dsh-trace @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools

@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools@0.1.5-rc.2
  installed at   .../node_modules/@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools
  contract       10 declaration file(s) — the JSDoc here IS the contract:
                 .../lib/types/index.d.ts
                 ...
  README         .../README.md
  source         https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/tree/dsh-v0.1.5-rc.2/packages/core/tools
  snapshot       .../.dsh-source/dsh-v0.1.5-rc.2

The published .d.ts files keep every JSDoc block — including @mode on events, which tells you whether a listener must call next(). That is the real contract, on disk and greppable. Generated projects get the same tool as pnpm run trace <package>.
