dsh-widescreen
Widescreen mode for the DeepSeek Harness web UI. Adds a toggle in Settings → General (设置 → 通用设置) that lets the session detail page fill the available browser width instead of the fixed 748px content column.
Features
- One switch in Settings → General: Widescreen mode (宽屏模式).
- When on, the chat column, date dividers, question cards, and the composer card all expand to the full width of the center column — no more excessive whitespace on wide monitors.
- When off, behavior is byte-for-byte the shipped default (748px content column).
- Container-relative sizing only (
--dsh-chat-content-width: 100%): browser zoom and window resizing keep reflowing exactly as before, and narrow viewports are unaffected. - The preference is persisted in the DSH user-settings document; it survives page reloads and restarts.
- Fully reversible: removing the plugin restores the default layout with no residue.
Install
> Requires DSH 0.1.0-rc.x (Web profile).
From GitHub
dsh plugin --profile web add github:Temoa/dsh-widescreenNo build scripts are involved: the repository ships pre-built lib/ artifacts, so no prepare authorization is needed.
From a local checkout
dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-widescreenRestart dsh after installing (dsh --profile web), then open Settings → General and flip the switch.
Uninstall
dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-widescreenRestart dsh after removing (dsh --profile web). The default 748px layout is fully restored: the stylesheet and the <html> attribute are torn down with the plugin, and the persisted preference section is ignored once the namespace is gone.
How it works
The conversation root in dsh-client-ui-conversation pins the chat content width with a component-scoped CSS variable:
--dsh-chat-content-width: 748px;Every width-limited element (chat column, date dividers, user-question cards, composer card, dock rows) reads that variable. The plugin:
1. Registers a durable widescreen settings namespace on the Host (lib/index.js). 2. Binds it on the client through ctx.settingsScope and keeps a snapshot store in sync (lib/client.js). 3. Injects a small stylesheet and toggles an data-dsh-widescreen attribute on <html>. The stylesheet redefines the variable to 100% on the two containers that own every consumer:
html[data-dsh-widescreen="on"] [data-conversation-scroll],
html[data-dsh-widescreen="on"] [data-composer-seat] {
--dsh-chat-content-width: 100%;
}--dsh-composer-card-max-width derives from the same variable, so the composer follows automatically. Because the value is container-relative (100%), the original viewport/zoom-responsive reflow is untouched.
The General-settings row registers into the additive settings.general.item slot (order 30, after Appearance and Composer Enter), exactly like the shipped preference rows.
