dsh-gitbash-shell
Git Bash execution environment and MSYS POSIX path dialect support for DeepSeek Harness on Windows.
Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-gitbash-shellPlugin 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
- Private Git Bash executor instance inheriting from @deepseek-ai/dsh-bash-sandbox without overriding host ctx.shell
- Session-level bash tool injection across official presets with prompt routing rules
- Bidirectional MSYS POSIX path translation (/c/...) across prompts, tool arguments, and output returns
- Sidebar terminal takeover pointing new terminals to verified Git for Windows bash
- Fail-closed restricted mode policy enforcement and explicit native execution tools (gitbash_native, gitbash_to_native_path)
- Clean coexistence and deduplication logic with dsh-ops and dsh-ptc-cordis-preset
Useful For
- Running Linux/POSIX bash commands, scripts, and build pipelines directly from DSH agents on Windows
- Eliminating path slash and drive-letter syntax errors when LLM agents operate across Windows filesystems
- Setting Git Bash as the default shell for interactive sidebar terminals in DeepSeek Harness
- Executing native Windows tools with explicit encoding controls through typed argv execution
Who It Fits
- Windows developers running DeepSeek Harness who prefer bash commands over PowerShell
- Engineers using cross-platform CLI toolchains and shell scripts inside DSH agent workflows
- Users running multiple agent presets requiring consistent MSYS POSIX path dialects
Documented Limitations
- Only supports official Git for Windows installations; WSL, MSYS2, and Cygwin binaries are explicitly rejected
- Restricted modes on Windows fail-closed under experimentalNative; true OS-level container isolation is not provided for Git Bash
- Sidebar terminal candidate lists may still list WSL bash entries unless terminal-controller is modified
- MSYS argument conversion may treat slash flags like /all as paths unless explicitly escaped
