dsh-web-restart

One-click restart for the DeepSeek Harness Web UI — a small Restart DSH control pinned to the bottom-right corner of Settings ▸ General, with an arm-to-confirm guard and a live liveness dot.

Linux port of 1123762794/dsh-web-restart, reworked for the web-profile plugin layer.

Features

• Pinned corner placement — lives inside the Settings panel (last item of General), absolutely positioned to the panel's bottom-right corner; stays put even when the settings list scrolls. Nothing in the sidebar, no misclicks.
• Arm-to-confirm — first click only arms the button (red, "Click again to confirm · 5s"); a deliberate second click fires. Auto-disarms after 5 seconds, so it can never go off by accident or stay armed forever.
• Liveness dot — polls GET /dsh-health every 5 s: green = harness online, red = offline/restarting.
• Survives its own restart — installed as a bundle-layer profile plugin, so it comes back with the harness it just restarted.

Screenshots

How it works

Safety notes

• Origin guard: cross-site no-cors POSTs at /restart-dsh are rejected with 403 (drive-by restart-DoS protection; upstream had none).
• No black boxes: the actual restart logic is fully readable in-repo (upstream delegated to an external PowerShell script outside the repository).
• No dependencies, no telemetry, no network egress — everything talks to localhost only.
• Single-click-no-confirm was upstream's default; this fork deliberately requires two clicks within 5 s.

Install (DSH web profile)

git clone https://github.com/bigfurma-bot/dsh-web-restart.git /path/to/dsh-web-restart

Add the dependency (link: so future edits need no reinstall):

// ~/.dsh/profiles/web/package.json
{
  "dependencies": {
    "@deepseek-ai/dsh-web-restart": "link:/path/to/dsh-web-restart"
  }
}

Add the loader row:

# ~/.dsh/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml
- insert:
    - id: web-restart
      name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-web-restart'

Then:

cd ~/.dsh/profiles/web && pnpm install

And restart dsh web once manually — after that, the button in Settings ▸ General handles every restart itself (~15–20 s downtime; sessions persist on disk).

Configuration

Paths are constants at the top of each file — adjust to your machine:

• host.js: SCRIPT (restarter path), LOG (log file)
• restart-dsh-web.sh: LOG, kill patterns, and the checkout dir + launch command at the bottom (default: cd /home/prime/deepseek-harness && pnpm dsh web)

Requirements: Linux, DSH web profile (bundle-layer plugins), pnpm on PATH.
