Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-free-searchPlugin 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
- Registers a WebSearchProvider into DSH ctx.web with automated multi-engine fallback
- Supports keyless search engines including Bing, DuckDuckGo, SearXNG, AnySearch, Exa, Tavily, Keenable, Firecrawl, and Parallel
- Supports API-key enabled engines including Perplexity, SerpBase, Baidu, Kimi, Aliyun, You.com, and official DeepSeek
- Provides advanced_search with time filtering (fixed tiers, relative offsets, and absolute ISO dates)
- Provides multi_search for concurrent multi-source querying and deduplication
- Includes platform_search tool for GitHub, V2EX, B站, Reddit, Hacker News, Stack Overflow, Wikipedia, and npm
- Renders an integrated web configuration card (plugins.row.config) and popup engine picker command (/free-search-engine)
- Wraps untrusted web search results in boundary tags for prompt-injection defense
Useful For
- Enabling web search capabilities in DSH environments that lack official DeepSeek API search access or operate behind OpenAI-compatible gateways
- Conducting time-sensitive queries using advanced search date-range filters across news and documentation
- Aggregating and verifying search results across multiple engines concurrently via multi_search
- Targeting developer discussions and platform-specific data on GitHub, Stack Overflow, Reddit, and npm directly from chat
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users seeking keyless, free, or self-hosted web search integrations
- Developers using third-party model gateways without native web search support
- Power users requiring flexible engine switching and advanced time-based web filtering
Documented Limitations
- Certain keyless engines (like DuckDuckGo) are prone to anti-bot challenges and temporary rate limits
- Node.js fetch does not use system proxies by default, requiring manual environment variables for users behind proxies
- web_fetch lacks internal SSRF protection
- Multi-engine concurrent queries consume additional API quota on paid search backends
