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
- Connects DeepSeek Harness to a local Chrome browser extension via WebSocket (port 9777)
- Preserves active user login states, cookies, and profiles without spawning isolated headless instances
- Provides 11 agent-accessible browser tools: browser_navigate, browser_read, browser_snapshot, browser_click, browser_type, browser_press, browser_scroll, browser_tabs, browser_evaluate, browser_screenshot, and browser_cleanup
- Generates interactive DOM snapshot trees using element references for reliable tool targeting
- Includes DSH settings toggle and local token authentication bound to 127.0.0.1
Useful For
- Automating tasks in authenticated web applications (e.g., social media, internal dashboards, e-commerce) without repeated logins
- Performing web research, multi-tab exploration, and structured DOM data extraction in real-time
- Executing complex UI interactions and taking visual screenshots under live user supervision
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users who need their AI agents to interact directly with authenticated browser sessions
- Developers looking for interactive, session-aware Chrome automation tools rather than headless instances
Documented Limitations
- Requires manual installation and loading of the unpacked Chrome extension (Chrome 116+ required)
- Displays a persistent Chrome debugger banner during active CDP attachment
- Requires Node.js ^22.19.0 or >=24.0.0 and pnpm on PATH when installing via the DSH CLI
