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-deepseek-vision-router

English | 简体中文

An experimental DeepSeek Harness plugin that lets a text-only DeepSeek main agent accept images directly from the DSH chat composer.

DSH image attachment -> vision model description -> deepseek-official

The plugin adds a separate deepseek-vision route. Image analysis runs through an existing provider from DSH's Models settings; the official DeepSeek adapter still owns the main conversation, reasoning, streaming, tools, and retries.

Compatibility

  • DSH 0.1.0-rc.6
  • Node.js 24+
  • mcp-vision-bridge 0.2.7

Other versions may work but have not been tested.

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add github:mochgolf/dsh-deepseek-vision-router

1. Open Settings → Models and add or reuse an image-capable provider. Its endpoint and credential stay owned by the Models page. 2. Open Settings → Plugins → DeepSeek Vision, select that provider, and save the vision model. The model field defaults to mimo-v2.5 but accepts any model ID exposed by the selected provider.

Provider additions, edits, and removals remain in Settings → Models. The plugin stores only visionProvider and visionModel in DSH's native settings namespace and applies changes to the next image request without a restart.

Select DeepSeek + Vision in DSH's model menu. New sessions can use it as their default provider; existing sessions retain their recorded provider until switched.

Security and privacy

  • Provider endpoints and credentials remain managed by DSH's Models settings;

this plugin never copies or stores them.

  • Image bytes are sent to the configured vision provider; DeepSeek receives the

resulting text description, not the pixels.

  • Descriptions are marked as untrusted image content before reaching DeepSeek,

so text visible inside an image is not promoted to system instructions.

  • Successful descriptions use a bounded, process-local cache.

Limitations

  • The cache is not persisted across DSH restarts.
  • The analysis prompt comes from an internal mcp-vision-bridge module; an

upstream directory change may require a compatibility update.

  • This is a preprocessing bridge, not native DeepSeek multimodality.
