dsh-plugin-scout
A DeepSeek Harness plugin + skill that scouts the DSH ecosystem: it surveys the core deepseek-harness repo and every repository tagged dsh-plugin, discovers harnesses related to your goal, and judges whether each is worth trying.
What it does
Before you build a new harness or adopt someone else's, plugin-scout answers two questions:
- What already ships in the core harness, so you do not rebuild it?
- Which community plugins are related to my goal, and are they worth trying?
It produces a short candidate table with one verdict per candidate — TRY / WATCH / SKIP — plus the evidence behind each verdict. It only scouts and judges: installing a chosen plugin is find-plugins' job, and building a new one is make-dsh-plugin's job.
Install
As a bundle (published to npm or installed from git):
dsh plugin add https://github.com//dsh-plugin-scout
The bundle registers the plugin-scout skill automatically.
Or install only the skill by copying its directory:
cp -R skills/plugin-scout "$DSH_HOME/skills/"
Usage
Ask DSH things like:
- "Is there a harness for X in the ecosystem? Should I try it?"
- "Before I build a Y plugin, what already exists?"
- "Survey the dsh-plugin topic and judge what is worth adopting for my goal."
The skill runs two deterministic scripts:
- scripts/survey-harness.mjs — lists deepseek-harness packages and the locally
installed official packages.
- scripts/search-topic.mjs — lists public, non-archived, non-fork repos tagged
dsh-plugin, with pagination.
It then narrows to the relevant candidates, inspects their README, package.json and file tree, and applies references/judgment-rubric.md to reach each verdict.
