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-host-restart is a DeepSeek Harness host plugin that provides both an LLM-invocable tool (restart_dsh) and a human slash command (/restart). When triggered, it terminates the running DSH backend or desktop process tree via an external PowerShell driver spawned through WMI, spins up a fresh host instance, and seamlessly re-injects a continuation prompt into the original session without requiring manual page reloads or context reconstruction.

Key Capabilities

  • Provides the restart_dsh tool for the LLM to trigger a host restart
  • Registers a user-facing /restart slash command via the commands service
  • Coordinates state handoff with dsh-host-sl before terminating the host process
  • Restores the calling conversation session automatically after host restart
  • Supports both Web Node.js host and Electron desktop application process trees
  • Uses WMI-detached PowerShell driver execution with fail-closed process identification

Useful For

  • Applying newly installed plugins or Cordis patches without losing ongoing session context
  • Recovering from host memory bloat or hung subprocesses programmatically
  • Automating desktop application or background server reboots during extended agent tasks

Who It Fits

  • DeepSeek Harness plugin developers
  • Power users managing local DSH Web or Desktop instances on Windows
  • Autonomous agent builders requiring graceful host cycling

Documented Limitations

  • Primary restart driver relies on Windows PowerShell and WMI (Win32_Process)
  • Only resumes top-level initiator sessions; running background jobs and subagents are terminated and unrecoverable
  • Subagent sessions cannot directly invoke the restart tool
  • Driver script is located in driver/ and must be present or configured in DSH tools paths
