GUI-based per-model capability declaration and override editor for DeepSeek Harness providers.
Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add github:sanshanya/better-model-provider#masterPlugin Overview & Capabilities
AI-assisted organization based on the public repository snapshot. The content must be grounded in source evidence and does not replace compatibility or security verification.
Key Capabilities
- Adds a 'Model capabilities' configuration page to the DeepSeek Harness web UI
- Configures custom reasoning-effort levels and wire values for OpenAI-compatible models
- Enables vision/image input modality flags per model to prevent session rejection
- Adjusts token capacity limits like contextWindow and maxTokens with shorthand units (e.g. 380K, 1M)
- Provides sparse capability overrides and resets for official-catalog model routes
Useful For
- Enabling multimodal/image input for custom OpenAI-compatible vision models
- Fine-tuning reasoning effort parameters for specialized reasoning models
- Overriding default context window or token limits on official or custom provider routes without touching YAML
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users utilizing custom OpenAI-compatible model endpoints
- Developers needing granular control over reasoning-effort and modality declarations
- Users who prefer visual configuration over YAML file editing
Documented Limitations
- Does not manage API keys or endpoint routes (managed via the official Models settings page)
- Dedicated adapter apps with built-in capability pages (e.g., native DeepSeek/Codex adapters) do not appear in this manager
- Requires DeepSeek Harness web profile and compatibility with @deepseek-ai/dsh-api-remotes 0.1.x
