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-point

Point checkpoints and ancestry-aware session continuation for DeepSeek Harness.

简体中文

dsh-point gives a DSH workspace an immutable Point history without loading all prior sessions into every new context. Point is the only history unit: save a Point, continue from a Point, and let the agent read an authorized ancestor Point only when needed.

Features

  • /point-stash [title] saves complete participant-visible events since the previous Point.
  • A Web workspace view renders the Point parent DAG, node details, and an explicit Continue from this Point action.
  • Continue creates or reuses a deterministic DSH Session and carries Point ancestry without copying historical events into context.
  • point_read(point_id) lets the model read original events from an ancestor Point; unrelated Points are rejected.
  • Crash recovery reconciles the local cursor against immutable Point metadata instead of creating duplicate Points.
  • Compaction records are excluded, while the original visible transcript, content blocks, source metadata, and paired tool calls/results are preserved.

Requirements

  • Node.js 22.19 or newer
  • DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6
  • The point CLI available on PATH

Install Point first if needed:

python3 -m pip install "git+https://github.com/guix4ever/point.git"

Install

Add the plugin to the DSH Web profile:

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-point

Restart DSH after installation. The package contributes both the Host plugin and its Web client bundle through cordis.patch.yml.

Use

Save the current completed work:

/point-stash explain the change briefly

Open the Points tab in the DSH conversation view to inspect the current workspace DAG. Selecting a node is read-only; press Continue from this Point to open its deterministic continuation Session.

The continuation receives only the selected Point ancestry. If historical detail is relevant, the model can call:

point_read(point_id)

Only Point ids in that continuation's ancestry are accepted.

Integrity and failure policy

The save boundary waits for agent idle, flushes DSH persistence, and advances its cursor only after point stash succeeds. Projection fails closed on non-contiguous events, open turns, incomplete assistant chunks, duplicate or missing tool identities, dangling calls, and empty visible Points.

The browser cannot choose a filesystem path, Point binary, or shell argument. Workspace path and agent preset are derived by the Host from the addressed DSH Session.

Development

npm ci
npm run typecheck
npm test
npm pack --dry-run

Maintained sources are TypeScript in src/ and client-src/. Runtime entry points are built into lib/ and committed so Git installation does not require a local build step.

Current scope

  • The client module targets DSH Web, the client platform currently exposed by DSH. Host behavior is reusable by other entry points.
  • The DAG deliberately uses a small horizontally scrollable layout rather than a graph framework, pan/zoom, clustering, or a second history abstraction.
  • Automated coverage includes the real Point CLI, crash reconciliation, ancestry authorization, Host restart idempotence, and a real DSH Web/Chromium acceptance run. A paid live-model invocation is not required for this release.
