What is this
Inspired by the multi-agent workbench idea of oh-my-openagent, rebuilt on DeepSeek Harness native mechanisms:
- Model providers are connected through the official Settings → Models → "Add provider" flow (this suite bundles NO model adapters — zero conflict with the official catalog);
- This suite organizes the team: specialist roster, on-demand dispatch, roundtable review, model comparison, and a multimodal vision bridge.

Notes |
| Specialist roster |
@dsh-collaboration/team |
Ten pre-defined identities (main/planner/coder/debugger/reviewer/researcher/critic/writer/looker/painter), each with a duty; per-identity models configured in settings.yaml, applied live; empty = follow the session model. Identities are templates that can be hired as PERSISTENT specialist instances (with clones). v0.4: the child-scoped team_help tool lets a specialist ask another specialist for help through the main agent |
| Team console |
@dsh-collaboration/tool-team |
team_call hires persistent specialists (instances clones one identity, tasks gives each clone its own task); team_message follow-ups/relays (star topology, v0.4 relay routing); team_status live board; team_close dismisses; roundtable one-shot parallel panel |
| Model comparison |
@dsh-collaboration/tool-model-compare |
One prompt to several models in parallel, answers side by side |
| Vision bridge |
@dsh-collaboration/tool-vision |
A text-only main agent sends images to a vision-capable model and works from the text analysis |
| Image inbox |
@dsh-collaboration/tool-image-inbox |
An invisible paste bridge: pasting an image in a collaboration session stores it as a workspace file and puts the path in the draft — no button, works for text-only main agents, routed to looker/vision |
| One-line preset |

How it works
Official Settings → Models: deepseek-official + user-added providers (OpenAI-compatible, …)
│ registered routes

collaboration-team roster (settings.yaml) ←── each identity: duty + optional model
│ host service collaborationTeam

Main agent (Collaboration preset)
├─ team_call → hire persistent specialist instances (with clones) → report / settlement notices
├─ team_message → follow up or relay to any instance (specialists ask each other via team_help, you relay)
├─ team_status → live team board; team_close → dismiss an instance
├─ model_compare → same prompt across models, side by side
└─ vision → images to a vision model → text analysis back
Team topology
Every identity can be hired multiple times as separate instances (reviewer#1, reviewer#2, …). The main agent is the star hub — all traffic flows through it.
┌─────────────────────┐
│ Main agent (you) │
│ the star hub │
└──────────┬──────────┘
team_call hires · team_message relays (both directions)
┌──────────────┬────────────┼────────────┬──────────────┐
▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼
planner#1 coder#1 looker#1 writer#1 reviewer#2 …
│ │ │ │ │
└───────────── report / settlement notices ────────────┘
Specialists never talk to each other directly. When one needs another — for example researcher asking looker to read an image — the request circles through the main agent:
researcher#1 ── team_help ──► main agent receives [team-relay]
▲ │
│ ▼ team_message → looker#1
│ │
└──── team_message ◄──── looker#1 reports the answer
Images with a text-only main agent
The composer's image-attachment path is gated by the current model's inputModalities: DeepSeek text-only routes declare no image modality, so pasted images are rejected at admission — looker or not. tool-image-inbox solves this INSIDE the policy, with a paste-as-usual experience:
Paste an image in a collaboration session
→ an invisible client bridge intercepts the paste (no button, no UI)
→ the image is stored as a workspace file (.dsh-inbox/)
→ "[图片: <path>]" appears in the draft; press Enter
→ the main agent routes the path to the vision tool or hires looker
→ looker configured: normal image analysis; not configured: the agent hints how to set it up
Non-collaboration sessions and text-only pastes are untouched. Alternatives: drop the image into the workspace folder and name the path, or switch the session to a vision route (e.g. zai / glm-5v-turbo) and paste natively.
The specialist roster
Ten pre-defined identities, each with its own specialty. The tool surface is tiered by duty: research-type identities get read-only tools, execution identities get shell/file/skill tools, visual identities get read + vision.
| id |
Name |
Specialty |
Tool surface |
main |
主代理 (Main agent) |
Coordinates the whole effort: first analyzes the task structure and clarifies the division of labor, then dispatches via team_call; integrates specialist reports and makes the final call — never executes specialists' core work itself |
Full session toolset (never hired as an instance) |
planner |
规划师 (Planner) |
Splits complex goals into steps and milestones with dependencies, ordering, and acceptance criteria |
Read-only: read/glob/grep/web_search |
coder |
工程师 (Engineer) |

Execution: shell (bash, Windows: pwsh)/read/write/edit/glob/grep/web_search/skill/todo_write |
debugger |
调试员 (Debugger) |
Hunts bugs: reads errors and logs, produces minimal reproductions and fix plans |
Execution: shell (bash, Windows: pwsh)/read/glob/grep/edit |
reviewer |
审查员 (Reviewer) |
Reviews code and designs for security holes, edge cases, performance, and maintainability risks |
Read-only: read/glob/grep/web_search |
researcher |
研究员 (Researcher) |
Researches technology, competitors, and facts; cites sources in its conclusions |
Read-only: read/glob/grep/web_search |
critic |
评论家 (Critic) |
Challenges assumptions, hunts blind spots, plays devil's advocate — hardens the plan before it ships |
Read-only: read/glob/grep/web_search |
writer |
写手 (Writer) |
Writes docs, reports, READMEs, and copy — precise language, clear structure |
Execution: read/write/edit/glob/grep |
looker |
观察员 (Looker) |
Multimodal analysis of images, screenshots, and UIs: describes layouts, extracts text, spots visual issues |
Visual: read/read_image/vision |
painter |
画家 (Painter) |
Image creation and generation: turns a description into visual assets or concepts |
Visual: read/vision |

Quick start
Full guide: docs/installation.md.
-
Install the five packages into the DSH profile workspace (from the profile dir, e.g. ~/.dsh/profiles/web):
# Windows
pnpm add -w @dsh-collaboration/team @dsh-collaboration/tool-team @dsh-collaboration/tool-model-compare @dsh-collaboration/tool-vision @dsh-collaboration/tool-image-inbox
# Linux / WSL — same command, run in the profile directory
pnpm add -w @dsh-collaboration/team @dsh-collaboration/tool-team @dsh-collaboration/tool-model-compare @dsh-collaboration/tool-vision @dsh-collaboration/tool-image-inbox
Before npm publication, grab the .tgz assets from Releases.
-
Insert the host rows (cordis.patch.yml):
- insert:
- id: collaboration-team
name: '@dsh-collaboration/team'
- id: collaboration-image-inbox
name: '@dsh-collaboration/tool-image-inbox'
-
Add model providers via the official Settings → Models → Add provider card:

-
Configure the roster + preset: collaboration-team section in settings.yaml (see below); copy config/agent-presets/collaboration into ~/.dsh/.agent-presets/ (on Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.dsh\.agent-presets\).
-
Restart DSH → start a new conversation on the Collaboration preset → done.
Roster configuration
collaboration-team:
agents:
- { id: main, name: 主代理, role: Coordinates and dispatches specialists }
- { id: planner, name: 规划师, role: Breaks goals into steps, provider: deepseek-official, model: deepseek-v4-flash }
- { id: reviewer, name: 审查员, role: Reviews code and designs, provider: deepseek-official, model: deepseek-v4-flash }
- { id: looker, name: 观察员, role: Vision analysis, provider: zhipu, model: glm-4v-flash }
provider = a provider ID added in the official Models page; empty = follow the session model (chat-box selector)
- Give vision identities (e.g.
looker) a vision-capable model, or image tasks fail at runtime
- Changes apply live — no restart needed
Usage examples
| Scenario |
What the main agent does |
| Parallel audits |
team_call with instances: 2 hires two reviewer clones, one per module |
| Follow-up question |
team_message to reviewer#1 about session-fixation attacks |
| Relay an objection |
team_message critic's objection to planner |
| Specialist asks specialist |
researcher calls team_help for looker; you forward the request and relay the answer back |
| Group deliberation |
roundtable with planner, reviewer, critic on one topic |
| Model comparison |
model_compare deepseek-v4-pro vs zhipu/glm-4.5 on the same prompt |
| Read an image |
vision sends a screenshot to the vision model and returns text analysis |
Development
pnpm install # install dependencies
pnpm typecheck # typecheck all packages
pnpm build # build
Validation
node scripts/e2e-tools.mjs # drives each tool package's apply() in a fresh process (mirrors preset mount checks)
node scripts/e2e-team-host.mjs # drives the team host service: instance lifecycle + team_help relay
node scripts/check-roster.mjs # validates the collaboration-team roster in settings.yaml
Isolated e2e in Docker (browser + throwaway DSH)
docker compose up --build --abort-on-container-exit e2e
Boots a throwaway DSH web instance inside a container — its whole DSH_HOME
lives under /dsh-home, so no real profile, session store, or preset roster is
ever touched. The same container then runs the host-side scripts plus the
image-inbox paste-bridge browser verification on a Linux chromium (a single
container is required because dsh web binds only 127.0.0.1; on Windows the
script keeps using the system Edge — override the channel with DSH_E2E_CHANNEL).
Screenshots and console dumps land in .e2e-artifacts/. The exit code is the
e2e result — CI runs this job on every push.
