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 Git Memory

![CI](https://github.com/starfishwrx/dsh-git-memory/actions/workflows/ci.yml) ![License: MIT](LICENSE)

Git-backed, reviewable long-term context for DeepSeek Harness.

> Status: compatibility spike / pre-alpha. The current release proves the DSH > integration seams and deliberately does not store user memory yet.

Product direction

DSH Git Memory is being built around one trust invariant:

> One controlled memory transaction equals one Git commit.

The intended product gives DeepSeek Harness useful context on day one, then accumulates source-backed memory during normal use. Accepted memory stays local, diffable, reviewable, and revertible.

What works today

  • Installable DSH bundle with a dsh.bundle manifest.
  • Stable dynamic context registered through ctx.systemPrompt.context().
  • Metadata-only observation of session/event.
  • A direct human command: /memory status.
  • A read-only model tool: memory_status.
  • Windows and Ubuntu CI.
  • No transcript persistence, no background model calls, and no memory writes.

The spike records only aggregate event counts and timestamps in process memory. It never retains message or tool-result content.

Quick start from source

Prerequisites:

  • Node.js 24 or newer.
  • pnpm 11.
  • DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6.
git clone https://github.com/starfishwrx/dsh-git-memory.git
cd dsh-git-memory
pnpm install
pnpm verify
dsh plugin --profile web add .
dsh --profile web --dump-config

Start the Web profile, then run:

/memory status

The model can also call:

memory_status

This package has not been published to npm yet. GitHub dependency installs run the package's prepare build and therefore require explicit pnpm allowBuilds permission. Pin a commit when testing a source install.

Planned user experience

1. /memory setup gathers basic profile, project, goal, preference, boundary, and consent information. 2. A confirmed onboarding draft becomes an auditable baseline commit. 3. Normal DSH sessions generate bounded, redacted memory candidates. 4. Review mode lets the user approve, edit, or reject candidates. 5. Conservative automation can be enabled only after an initial trust period. 6. DSH receives a bounded dynamic context snapshot; detailed recall uses memory_search.

See [the roadmap](docs/ROADMAP.md) and [architecture](docs/ARCHITECTURE.md) for the delivery plan.

Safety posture

  • Managed repositories will live under $DSH_HOME/git-memory, not inside a

user's source repository.

  • Memory tools will not accept arbitrary filesystem destinations.
  • Sensitive values such as credentials, private keys, cookies, and tokens are

hard-denied.

  • Raw session transcripts are not copied into the memory Git history.
  • Git remotes, pushing, and writes outside managed repositories are disabled by

default.

  • Model-inferred observations can never silently become global user policy.

Read [PRIVACY.md](PRIVACY.md), [THREAT_MODEL.md](THREAT_MODEL.md), and [the target data model](docs/DATA_MODEL.md) before contributing storage code.

Development

pnpm install
pnpm typecheck
pnpm test
pnpm build

pnpm verify runs the stable CI checks. Maintainers with DSH installed can set DSH_BIN to the absolute path of DSH's lib/bin.js and run pnpm smoke:dsh. The smoke script installs the built bundle into a disposable profile, boots DSH on an ephemeral port, checks the Web response, and cleans up.

The only module allowed to depend directly on unstable DSH APIs in future releases is the DSH adapter layer. The compatibility spike is intentionally small while that boundary is proven.

Compatibility

The current tested line is DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6 on Node.js 24. DSH is evolving quickly, so plugin and Harness versions are deliberately pinned. See [COMPATIBILITY.md](COMPATIBILITY.md).
