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.

Harness Insights

中文文档

A bundled Cordis plugin for DeepSeek Harness. It adds a local-first Usage insights settings page without modifying upstream Harness source.

Published package: @anarkhgatsby/deepseek-harness-insights.

Preview

The plugin adds a Usage insights page under Harness settings, with token activity, model usage, active sessions, cache hit rate, activity breakdown, and the most frequently used tools.

Install as a Harness bundle

The package follows the official Harness bundle manifest and can be installed into a profile with dsh plugin:

dsh plugin --profile demo add @anarkhgatsby/deepseek-harness-insights
dsh --profile demo

To remove it later:

dsh plugin --profile demo remove @anarkhgatsby/deepseek-harness-insights

The plugin is web-only and targets the 0.1.0-rc.7 Harness projection and client APIs. It is an independent, unofficial community plugin and is not published by DeepSeek.

For local development, the same bundle can be installed from a checkout:

dsh plugin --profile demo add ./packages/harness-insights

The package also retains its dsh.client metadata so the browser entry is loaded with the required Harness client services.

Data boundary

Harness Insights folds only structured session metadata:

  • assistant/message.data.usage
  • assistant/message.data.message.source.provider/model
  • tool/call.data.name
  • event timestamps and session projection identity

It does not request session history in the browser, store message content, read API keys, or upload usage data. Historical aggregation runs through Harness's official sessionProjectionCache.coldSnapshot() path and persists only the projection checkpoint owned by Harness.

Packaging

The package is developed independently under packages/harness-insights and copied into each bundled runtime at build time. Harness Desktop deploys its tiny pure-JavaScript runtime copy to the standard out-of-tree plugin root under $DSH_HOME/node_modules and loads it through a --patch overlay.

The plugin contains no architecture-specific native modules and is shared by macOS arm64, macOS x86_64, and Windows x86_64 builds.

Tool icon assets

assets/tool-icons contains the project-provided Codex-style Harness tool icon set: 26 matching SVG pairs for light and dark interfaces. The build embeds the optimized pairs into the client bundle; the UI switches them through Harness's body[data-ds-dark-theme] contract without its own theme preference.
