DSH Desktop - Official app for DeepSeek’s open-source agent harness
DeepSeek Harness Desktop is the official Mac and Windows app for DeepSeek’s open-source agent harness. Install it, sign in, and run everyday work, coding, and scheduled tasks locally with the same plugin system as the CLI.

Hi everyone!
DeepSeek Harness already existed as a CLI and web UI. You installed Node, ran:
and worked from the browser.
Now there’s a desktop app for Mac and Windows. Install it, sign in with your DeepSeek account or an API key, and you’re in. Workspaces, plugins, background and scheduled tasks, and the “everything is a plugin” setup all come with it.
You can leave DSH running next to the rest of your apps and use it for files, docs, coding, research, or recurring jobs without starting from the terminal each time.
That makes DSH much easier to use every day!
@deepseek @zaczuo This makes DSH much easier to use without having to switch between tools every time
@deepseek @zaczuo It also broke soon too in early builds, this launch confirms a stable version instead of rc-0.(n) .
Having the same plugin system as the CLI in a desktop app sounds useful. Does it support custom plugin too?
Would love to know scheduled tasks behave when the computer is offline. Do they resume automatically?
Was waiting for it, thanks for making the desktop version. Can't wait to test it.
good move making this an actual app instead of just the CLI. question on the scheduled tasks part - do those run as a background daemon that survives a reboot/logout, or does the desktop app need to stay open and logged in the whole time for a scheduled job to fire?
Good to see an official desktop app for the harness, running the same plugin system as the CLI locally is a real convenience. Signing in once and then running scheduled tasks without touching a terminal will save a lot of friction for daily use.
Congrats on the desktop release — keeping the CLI's plugin model while adding scheduled and background tasks feels like a practical step for everyday use.
