Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add github:X-Xyy/dsh-api-balancePlugin 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 live status chip in the conversation header showing current API balance and session token count
- Presents a detail panel breakdown of topped-up balance, grant balance, request counts, and token metrics (input, output, cache hits)
- Displays context window pressure and capacity usage percentage with visual progress bars
- Implements background polling every 20 seconds while conversations are open with 15-second host-side caching
Useful For
- Monitoring DeepSeek API credit balances directly within the chat interface without visiting the external console
- Tracking per-session token consumption, cache hits, and context window limits during intensive prompt workflows
- Observing token usage trends and identifying when account balances run low via color-coded status indicators
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness desktop and web users who pay for API usage
- Developers and power users monitoring token utilization and context limits
Documented Limitations
- Requires DeepSeek API credentials configured in settings (llm-deepseek) or the DEEPSEEK_API_KEY environment variable
- Exposes balance and token counts over an unauthenticated local loopback snapshot route
- Targeted for DSH Web / Desktop client platforms
