DeepSeek Harness plugin

dsh-skills-bridge

Bring your Claude Code skills into DeepSeek Harness — a drop-in SkillProvider that scans Claude skills directories (SKILL.md), normalizes frontmatter differences, and mounts them as first-class DSH

This evidence comes from the upstream catalog. This site has not installed, run, or security-reviewed the plugin.

Install

Start with a prompt that asks an agent to review the GitHub repository and source. Switch to the command if you want to install it yourself.

Copy this prompt into DSH, Codex, or another agent and ask it to review the GitHub repository and source first.

Do not install or run any commands yet. Read this plugin's GitHub repository, README, and relevant source code. Then answer the questions below clearly and directly so I can decide whether it fits my needs:

1. What is this plugin, and what problem does it solve?
2. Who is it for, and what are its typical use cases?
3. How is it used after installation? Include one minimal example.
4. What known limitations or privacy, security, compatibility, or maintenance risks does it have?
5. Give a clear recommendation: recommend, conditionally recommend, or do not recommend, with reasons.

Distinguish statements documented by the repository, inferences from source code, and unknowns. If evidence is insufficient, say so explicitly. Do not guess or simply repeat the README.

dsh-skills-bridge

Bring your Claude Code skills into DeepSeek Harness — zero migration, one plugin.

![Verified: Claude Code skill invoked inside DeepSeek Harness via claude-bridge provider](assets/hero-verification.png)

Real session, dsh v0.1.0-rc.8: the agent lists its skill catalog — pdf-report arrives from claude-bridge (this plugin) with its original ~/.claude/skills/ path, while using-superpowers comes from the native filesystem provider.

If you maintain a ~/.claude/skills/ directory, you already own a skill library. This plugin mounts it into DeepSeek Harness as a first-class SkillProvider — every SKILL.md is discovered, its frontmatter is normalized to the DSH format, and the model can invoke it exactly like a native skill.

~/.claude/skills/pdf-report/SKILL.md     ─┐
~/.claude/skills/tiktok-bio-scraper/...   ├─►  dsh-skills-bridge  ─►  ctx.skills  ─►  agent
~/.agents/skills/using-superpowers/       ─┘        (provider: claude-bridge)

Why

DeepSeek Harness has an elegant skill system (ctx.skills), but its ecosystem is one week old. Claude Code's skill ecosystem is huge — hundreds of community skills, and every power user has a personal ~/.claude/skills folder. This bridge lets DSH inherit that entire library on day one.

  • Conflict policy — bridge skills register at rank 250: project-local DSH skills (100/200) still win on name collisions; user-level defaults (400/500) yield to the bridge.
  • Hot reload — optional filesystem watcher invalidates the catalog when you edit a skill.
  • Zero dependencies — pure node:fs, no npm runtime deps.

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-skills-bridge

That's it — the bundle's patch layer self-registers. Restart your profile and the skills from ~/.claude/skills and ~/.agents/skills appear in the catalog (source: claude-bridge).

Configuration

Override via your profile's cordis.patch.yml:

- id: skills-bridge
  name: dsh-skills-bridge
  config:
    skillDirs: []              # extra dirs to scan (in addition to defaults)
    includeDefaultRoots: true  # ~/.claude/skills + ~/.agents/skills
    watch: true                # hot-reload on file changes
    providerName: claude-bridge

Verify it works

Ask the agent: "list every skill in your catalog and its provider source". Skills bridged from Claude Code show claude-bridge as provider and their original ~/.claude/skills/... path.

Limitations

  • Flat frontmatter only (the subset real-world SKILL.md files use); deeply nested YAML is skipped with a warning, matching native provider behavior.
  • Skill bodies are passed through verbatim — tool references inside a skill body (e.g. Claude Code's Read/Bash tools) are the model's business to adapt; DSH exposes its own equivalents.
  • The watcher is fs.watch-based; on network filesystems set watch: false.
