Plugin 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.

source-grounded
dsh-desktop-restart is a DeepSeek Harness plugin tailored for the Electron desktop client. Because restarting the host process does not relaunch the Electron container, this plugin utilizes a detached helper process to safely terminate and relaunch the desktop app without losing host session data. It integrates multiple native-style UI trigger points, introduces safety guards preventing restarts during active tasks or ongoing package installations, and includes cleanup utilities for leftover workspace temp directories.

Key Capabilities

  • Restart the full Electron desktop application via an external detached helper process
  • Configurable UI entry points: sidebar panel, sidebar footer action, conversation title bar button, settings row, and /restart-desktop slash command
  • Safety guards: warns when background agents or tasks are running, and hard-blocks restarts when plugin manager/pnpm processes are actively running
  • Automated background cleanup of orphaned dsh-workspace-changes temp directories older than 24 hours
  • Interface adjustment to hide the external 'Feedback' button under account menu to prevent accidental clicks

Useful For

  • Restarting DeepSeek Harness desktop conveniently after installing or updating local plugins and configurations
  • Freeing system disk space consumed by orphaned workspace change snapshot folders created during hard exits or crashes
  • Streamlining desktop UI by removing distracting external feedback buttons

Who It Fits

  • DeepSeek Harness desktop (Electron) users
  • Developers creating or testing DSH plugins requiring frequent desktop client reloads

Documented Limitations

  • Only functional in Electron desktop environments (not applicable to headless 'dsh web')
  • Only validated on Windows platforms
  • Kills the Electron main process directly, skipping Electron main window/tray cleanup handlers
  • Cannot detect or guard against restarts mid-flight during application auto-updates
