dsh-file-mention

Traditional Chinese: README.zh.md

Secure, session-scoped @ file/folder mentions and drag-and-drop file intake for the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) Web composer.

The plugin inserts lightweight path references. It does not attach or inject file content: immediately before an agent step, the Host validates each path and adds a path-only <workspace-reference> marker. The agent then decides whether and how to inspect the target with its own tools.

Features

• Files and folders — bare @ opens a workspace list; continue typing to

filter by basename or path.

• Git-aware index — tracked files plus untracked non-ignored files; deleted

tracked paths are removed. Non-Git workspaces use a bounded filesystem walk.

• Controllable index — nested .aiinclude rules can add required ignored

files with last-match-wins semantics; dirty/mtime metadata, monotonic indexVersion, and workspace invalidation keep changed files current.

• Fast typing — one per-session index request, warm() prefetch,

single-flight loading, 30-second stale-while-revalidate, local ranking, and optional recent-path prioritization.

• Unambiguous references — picks retain the full relative path. Paths with

spaces use @"quoted path" syntax.

• Validated markers — agent/pre-step checks workspace confinement,

symlink-resolved location, existence, and file/directory kind without reading content.

• Keyboard completion — arrows + Enter or Tab through the input-trigger

controller.

• Managed drag-and-drop — streaming temp files, atomic no-clobber finalize,

per-file/session/global quotas, retention cleanup, progress, and cancellation.

• Paste-to-upload — pasting non-image files routes them through the same

managed pipeline instead of failing in the built-in image intake; pure rail-image pastes still reach the image rail.

• Caret-preserving insertion — uploaded @ paths insert at the caret

recorded before the upload through the frozen slash/input-insert-text contract (draftRev CAS with caret remap), falling back to append.

• Reference tray — compact file/folder cards below the composer support copy,

reveal, single removal, and batch clear without altering surrounding text.

• Control Center — Overview, Index, Uploads, and Output tabs expose live index

diagnostics, storage meters, ignore presets, index rebuild, and expired-upload cleanup instead of a flat settings form.

• Candidate context — optional changed-file status labels and browser-local

recent-path history improve repeated navigation without sending history to the Host.

• Official UI slots — the tray, Control Center, and optional Host-validated

assistant output path companion use supported DSH integration points.

• Zero build — hand-written Host ESM and lazy-CJS browser bundle; React is

supplied by the DSH Client runtime.

Installation

Requires a compatible DSH Web profile with the client input-trigger, runtime, and locale services.

dsh plugin --profile web add github:tipoLi5890/dsh-file-mention

For local development:

dsh plugin --profile web add link:/absolute/path/to/dsh-file-mention
dsh --profile web --dump-config

Restart DSH Web after install/update.

Usage

Outside-root browsing through @/, @~/, or @../ is intentionally not part of the picker. The Host index root always comes from the addressed session.

How it works

Host

POST /api/file-mention/index accepts { "sessionId": "..." }. The Host derives cwd from session state, builds/caches a Git or fallback index, and returns relative file/folder paths only.

POST /api/file-mention/upload?sessionId=&name= streams one raw body to a temp file, checks configured per-file/session/global quotas, atomically finalizes it under <DSH_HOME>/uploads/<sessionId>/, and returns its managed absolute path.

POST /api/file-mention/settings owns durable plugin settings. POST /api/file-mention/status returns path-free index/storage aggregates for the Control Center. POST /api/file-mention/maintenance rebuilds the addressed session index or removes uploads past their configured retention period. POST /api/file-mention/path-action validates and reveals only current-workspace or managed-upload paths via structured execFile argument arrays.

At agent/pre-step, direct user mentions are revalidated. Relative paths must remain inside session.cwd; absolute paths are marked only when they resolve inside the managed upload root. The resulting marker looks like:

<workspace-reference path="src/main.js" kind="file" />

Browser

The browser registers an @/files input source. It fetches the complete bounded index once per session, ranks locally on every keystroke, optionally uses browser-local recent-path counts as a tie-breaker, and returns a plain-text insertion outcome. Connection reset clears all index state.

Capture-phase drag handlers claim drags containing non-image files. XHR exposes progress/cancel while the official conversation.input.dock draft action appends the returned references; no textarea DOM mutation fallback is used.

Limits

Git repositories honor .gitignore. The non-Git fallback skips hidden entries, symlinks, VCS metadata, dependencies, caches, and common build outputs.
