Overview

dsh-mobile-remote is a DeepSeek Harness ecosystem mobile remote-control plugin (DSH plugin, Host + Client in one package). After installation, a management panel appears under Settings → Remote Control in the Web UI:

• Connection QR code: auto-generates a QR for http://<lan-ip>:<port> — scan it with your phone's camera / browser to connect.
• On / Off toggle: switches the webserver listen address (0.0.0.0 ↔ 127.0.0.1) with one click. Applied via dsh's official HMR hot-reload — no service restart needed.
• Connected device count: mobile heartbeats report online devices in real time.
• LAN address list, phone access URLs, and config location at a glance.

Key selling point: pure CLI users don't need the desktop app. The official CLI deliberately rejects --host 0.0.0.0 for safety, but this plugin writes webserver.host: 0.0.0.0 through the profile's cordis.patch.yml (or a --patch <overlay>) — exactly how the desktop app's "Mobile Remote Control" switch works. The phone and the computer share the same dsh backend process and the same ~/.dsh data, so sessions, history, workspace and settings are naturally two-way synced — no data copying involved.

Recommended Installation

Either method works and is equivalent. We recommend the desktop app — fully graphical, no command line needed.

Option 1 (recommended): One-click via the desktop app

Install DeepSeek Harness Desktop, open it, then go to "Install Plugins" → Recommended → Mobile Remote Control → Install and click "Restart Service Now" to activate.

Option 2: Command line

# Prerequisite: install dsh (npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh)
dsh plugin --profile web add @feiyang666/dsh-mobile-remote

Restart the dsh web service to activate.

Usage

1. Start dsh (any way: desktop app / npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web / from source).
2. Open http://127.0.0.1:3080 in a desktop browser → Settings → Remote Control.
3. Toggle the switch ON (hot-reloaded, no restart).
4. Put your phone and computer on the same Wi-Fi, scan the QR or open the LAN URL.
5. The phone now shows all desktop data — sessions, history, workspace, settings — and can send messages to control the desktop.

Pure CLI startup (no desktop app)

# Way 1: use the settings-page toggle (recommended)
dsh --profile web
# then open http://127.0.0.1:3080 → Settings → Remote Control → ON

# Way 2: manual overlay
dsh --profile web --patch remote-control.patch.yml

remote-control.patch.yml:

- id: webserver
  config:
    host: '0.0.0.0'
    port: !!js ctx.webStartup.port ?? 3080

Security note: enabling remote control exposes the service to your LAN. Use it only on trusted home / office networks — do not expose it to the public internet.

What This Package Is

One npm package = host half (Node-side Cordis plugin: /__dsh_remote/* API, patch-file management, heartbeat device counting, index.html injection — see lib/index.js) + client half (browser settings panel — see lib/client.js, talking to the host via /__dsh_remote/status etc.).

It plugs into DSH through two declarations:

So for users, installing is one command — no YAML editing, no manual file copying.

How It Works

• Toggle: POST /__dsh_remote/toggle → writes/removes a webserver override block in the profile's cordis.patch.yml → dsh's watchUserPatches (Cordis HMR) hot-reloads the webserver entry to re-listen.
• Device count: mobile-injected JS heartbeats every 30s; the host keeps an active-device map (90s TTL).
• QR code: GET /__dsh_remote/qr?url=... returns SVG.
• Mobile polish: tapIndex injects mobile CSS/JS — composer toolbar wraps on narrow screens, selects get width-capped, iOS inputs get 16px to prevent focus zoom; DSH's native rail + hamburger drawer interactions are untouched.

Installation (for users)

0. Prerequisites

• DeepSeek Harness installed (npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh globally, or via the desktop app / npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web).
• dsh on your PATH (use the desktop app's own terminal if it manages its environment).

1. One-command install

dsh plugin --profile web add @feiyang666/dsh-mobile-remote

This command does three things automatically:

1. Installs the package into ~/.dsh/profiles/web via pnpm (initializes the profile on first use);
2. Detects the dsh.bundle declaration and registers the package in the profile's dsh.profile.bundles;
3. After restart, DSH reads the package's cordis.patch.yml and mounts the plugin entry into the app tree — no manual config editing.

The same works for other profiles — replace web with your profile name.

Local tarball testing: dsh plugin --profile web add C:\path\to\feiyang666-dsh-mobile-remote-1.1.0.tgz

2. Restart and verify

Restart the dsh web app (CLI: stop the old process and run dsh web again; desktop: fully quit and reopen). Then:

• Refresh http://127.0.0.1:3080 → Settings → the "Remote Control" panel should appear.

Uninstall

dsh plugin --profile web remove @feiyang666/dsh-mobile-remote

Then restart the app.
