A task board plugin for DeepSeek Harness

English · 中文

  

---

A task board plugin for DeepSeek Harness: local JSON storage, a six-column board, drag-and-drop ordering, task ↔ session linking, and model-facing board tools. The logic is distilled from Proma's task board (taskboard-store.ts and renderer/components/taskboard/) — local file storage, floating sortOrder, optimistic locking (version), identifier numbering, and localized status/priority color tones.

Features

• Six-column board: Todo / In Progress / Blocked / In Review / Done / Archived (each column scrolls independently when it has many cards)
• Multiple projects: built-in global project (local), create new projects, and an aggregate global view
• Drag & drop: drop onto column whitespace (move across columns / append), or before a card (reorder within a column via floating sortOrder)
• Task editor: title, description, status, priority, labels, assignee (user / Agent), start/end dates; archive / restore / delete
• Task ↔ session linking: a "Start conversation / View conversation" button on each card that links to and opens a DSH session
• Model-facing tools: taskboard_list / taskboard_create / taskboard_update / taskboard_archive, so an Agent can manage the board directly
• Local storage: ~/.dsh/taskboard/{projects.json, tasks.json} with atomic writes (tmp + rename), no database

Installation

Prerequisites

• DeepSeek Harness installed (Electron desktop app)
• A target profile exists (default web)

Option 1: npm install (recommended after publishing)

Install this package inside the target profile directory (adds it to that profile's package.json dependencies):

cd ~/.dsh/profiles/web
npm install @xiuda-ai/dsh-taskboard-plugin

Then append to ~/.dsh/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml:

- insert:
    - id: taskboard
      name: "@xiuda-ai/dsh-taskboard-plugin"

Restart the harness to load the host half; refresh the page to load the browser half.

Option 2: local path (development / not yet published)

Link the source directory into the profile's flat node_modules:

ln -sfn /path/to/dsh-taskboard-plugin ~/.dsh/profiles/node_modules/@xiuda-ai/dsh-taskboard-plugin

Then append the same cordis.patch.yml insert block as in Option 1.

Build from source

npm install
npm run build      # produces lib/index.js + lib/client.js
npm run dev        # watch src/ and rebuild (refresh the page after changes)

> Runtime dependencies @deepseek-ai/cordis / @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools / @deepseek-ai/dsh-home-paths must resolve from this package. For local development, link them to the profile's installed copies to match the running harness version.

Usage

After restarting, open any session — a "任务面板" (Task Board) pill button appears on the right side of the session header, next to the "Session log" button. Click it to open the board:

• "＋ 新建任务" creates a task
• Drag cards across columns / to reorder
• The conversation button on each card: "开始对话" when no session is linked, "查看对话" when one is

> Note: the entry button is session-scoped and only appears once you are inside a session; it is not shown on the blank no-session screen.

Uninstall

1. Remove this block from ~/.dsh/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml:

- insert:
    - id: taskboard
      name: "@xiuda-ai/dsh-taskboard-plugin"

2. Remove the symlink:

rm ~/.dsh/profiles/node_modules/@xiuda-ai/dsh-taskboard-plugin

The data directory ~/.dsh/taskboard/ is kept by default; delete it to wipe the data.

Data storage

~/.dsh/taskboard/
├── projects.json   # project list
└── tasks.json      # task list (with sessionId link, sortOrder, optimistic-lock version)

HTTP API (browser-half internal use)

POST /taskboard/api with body { "op": string, "args": object }:

Business errors return { ok:false, error:{ code, message } }; code may be VERSION_CONFLICT (optimistic-lock conflict), PROJECT_NOT_FOUND, TASK_NOT_FOUND, INVALID_*, etc.

Limitations

• v1 drops Proma's comments, activity timeline, task relations, attachments, recurring tasks, and the undo stack (⌘Z).
• Same-column drag uses a floating sortOrder ("insert before a card"); no reflow animation.
• Client styles reuse DSH theme CSS variables; no independent theme.
• The backlog and canceled statuses remain in the data layer, but the current UI does not render those two columns.
