dsh-llm-failover

Provider failover for DeepSeek Harness (dsh): when a model provider returns rate-limit (429) or quota-exhausted errors, switch to the next provider automatically — with a configurable per-provider model mapping, a permanent final fallback, and a visible notice in the UI.

模型提供方故障转移插件:遇到限流(429)或配额耗尽时,自动切换到下一个提供方——支持按提供方配置模型、永久最终兜底,并在界面显示切换提示。

Features / 功能

  • Automatic switch on RATE_LIMIT / QUOTA failures, with configurable retry threshold (fallbackAfterRetries). / 遇到限流/配额错误自动切换,可配置切换前连续失败次数。
  • Per-provider model mapping — a switched provider can use a different model. / 每个提供方可单独指定切换后使用的模型。
  • Cooldown per provider (cooldownMs): a cooled-down provider is skipped until it recovers. / 提供方冷却机制:冷却期间直接跳过,到期自动恢复。
  • The last entry in the provider list is the permanent fallback and is never switched away (no retry loops). / 列表最后一条是永久兜底,永远不会被切走(不会死循环)。
  • UI notice bar on every switch (auto-dismiss). / 每次切换在输入框上方显示提示条(自动消失)。
  • Configuration card in Settings → Plugins → Plugin configuration. / 设置 → 插件 → 插件配置 页面卡片直接配置。

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-llm-failover

Configuration / 配置

Either use the Settings UI card, or edit ~/.dsh/settings.yaml:

llm-failover:
  enabled: true                     # master switch / 总开关
  providers:                        # tried in order; last one is the fallback / 按顺序尝试,最后一条是兜底
    - provider: huoshan             # provider key from your llm-pi-ai / llm-deepseek config
      model: deepseek-v4-flash      # optional: model to use after switching / 可选:切换后使用的模型
    - provider: huoshan2
      model: deepseek-v4-flash
    - provider: deepseek-official   # permanent fallback, never switched away / 永久兜底
      model: deepseek-v4-flash
  fallbackAfterRetries: 2           # consecutive failures before cooldown+switch / 连续失败几次后冷却并切换
  cooldownMs: 60000                 # cooldown duration in ms / 冷却时长(毫秒)

How it works / 原理

Hooks two official agent waterfalls:

  • agent/request — picks the first non-cooled provider in the configured order at request time (returns a new config object; the seed config is deep-frozen).
  • agent/request-error (prepended, so it counts failures before dsh-llm-retry) — after fallbackAfterRetries consecutive RATE_LIMIT/QUOTA failures, cools the provider down and returns { kind: "retry" }; the last list entry never switches.

The config card talks to the plugin-owned /llm-failover RPC channel (the official settings RPC serves only allowlisted namespaces); writes go through the standard settings service — schema-validated and persisted to settings.yaml, live without restart.
