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.

tomilite-dsh-plugin

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that gives your DSH agent access to your local TomiLite β€” tasks, notes, and project stats.

The agent creates a task in TomiLite and it shows up in your Tasks panel instantly. Your DSH agent becomes the hands, TomiLite stays the workspace.

πŸš€ Get TomiLite

This plugin needs the TomiLite desktop app running on the same machine.

Windows one-liner (skips install if TomiLite is already running, otherwise downloads + installs + starts it):

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xxwj225-James/tomilite-dsh-plugin/main/scripts/install-tomilite.ps1 | iex"

Or download the installer manually: TomiLite Releases

If TomiLite is not running, the tools fail with an actionable message (with the download link) β€” the agent will relay it to you.

Prerequisites

  • DeepSeek Harness installed (npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web, or built from source)
  • TomiLite desktop app running β€” the plugin talks to its local API at http://localhost:3192 (localhost calls are token-exempt; no API key needed)
  • Node.js 22.19+ (matches DSH requirements)

Install

# npm (recommended once published)
dsh plugin --profile web add tomilite-dsh-plugin

# git (installs from this repository)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:xxwj225-James/tomilite-dsh-plugin

# local checkout
dsh plugin --profile web add ./tomilite-dsh-plugin

Restart the DSH web UI (or dsh CLI) after installing.

Configuration

Defaults work out of the box for the local TomiLite app. Override in your profile's cordis.patch.yml:

- id: tomilite
  name: tomilite-dsh-plugin
  config:
    baseUrl: http://localhost:3192   # default
    apiToken: ''                     # only for remote instances (Settings β†’ API Keys)
    projectId: proj-default          # default single-user project

apiToken can also come from the TOMILITE_API_TOKEN environment variable. For remote instances prefer HTTPS β€” the token travels in plain HTTP otherwise.

Tools

ToolDescription
tomilite_list_tasksList tasks, optional status filter (todo / in_progress / done). Returns compact rows (description truncated to 300 chars)
tomilite_create_taskCreate a task (title, description, type, priority, story points)
tomilite_update_taskUpdate status / priority / description
tomilite_list_notesList knowledge-base notes, optional category filter. Returns compact rows (content preview truncated to 500 chars)
tomilite_create_noteCreate a Markdown note
tomilite_get_statsBoard statistics β€” counts per status / priority / type β€” handy before writing daily reports

If TomiLite is not running, tools fail with an actionable message (the agent will tell you to start TomiLite). Every HTTP call carries a 15-second timeout so a hung TomiLite never stalls an agent turn.

How it works

The plugin is a host-side Cordis plugin that speaks the same tRPC wire format as TomiLite's own web frontend (apps/web/src/lib/api.ts):

  • Reads: GET /api/<router>.<procedure>?input=<urlencoded JSON>
  • Mutations: POST /api/<router>.<procedure> with a JSON body
  • Responses: tRPC envelope { result: { data: ... } }
  • Auth: x-tl-token header, only needed for non-localhost instances

The tools registered by this plugin (ctx.tools.register + defineTool from @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools) become regular model-visible tools β€” schemas are enforced before execute runs, results are rendered as compact JSON blocks.

Language

Tool descriptions and result messages are in English. DSH's locale service is browser-side only, so host-side tool plugins (including every official DSH tool package) ship static English copy; translations can be added once DSH exposes a host-side locale.

Development

npm install
npm run build                 # tsc β†’ lib/
npm test                      # smoke + real-Cordis load tests (no network)
npm run test:integration      # round-trips against a RUNNING TomiLite on :3192
  • test/smoke.mjs β€” registration + model-surface checks with a mock context (no network)
  • test/cordis-load.mjs β€” boots a real @deepseek-ai/cordis context, loads the plugin through ctx.plugin(), verifies inject resolution, tool registration, and Config-schema rejection of invalid config (no network)
  • test/integration.mjs β€” live round-trips against a running TomiLite; creates and deletes its own rows, no user data touched

lib/ is committed so git installs work without a build step; CI rebuilds it to guarantee freshness (npm run build before committing).

Notes

  • DeepSeek Harness is in developer preview (rc releases) and may break plugin APIs between releases; this plugin is pinned to dsh-tools@0.1.0-rc.7.
  • GitHub topic: dsh-plugin (for plugin ecosystem discovery)
