Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-searxng-webPlugin 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
- Replaces default DSH search provider with a self-hosted SearXNG instance for native `web_search`
- Provides a native `web_fetch` provider with HTML text reduction and character caps
- Supports multi-endpoint configurations (`baseUrls`) with sticky automatic failover across IPv4, IPv6, and LAN
- Built-in initial SSRF guard to block loopback, private, and CGNAT fetch targets
- Supports authentication via custom HTTP headers, basic auth, and reverse proxy URL path prefixes
Useful For
- Executing private and vendor-free web searches directly through self-hosted SearXNG
- Enabling native web fetching in DeepSeek Harness profiles without external MCP dependencies
- Configuring resilient search fallback across multiple home lab or intranet network interfaces
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users running self-hosted SearXNG instances
- Privacy-focused developers seeking keyless, local web retrieval for AI agents
- Homelab administrators with multi-homed network endpoints
Documented Limitations
- Requires a running SearXNG instance with JSON output format enabled (`search.formats: [html, json]`)
- SSRF guard only validates the initial request target; redirect targets are not re-validated
- Uses Node's global fetch which ignores system proxies and proxy environment variables by default
- Web fetching is restricted to plain HTML/text extraction without PDF parsing or section filtering
DSH Compatibility
Version-specific runtime evidence collected by DSH Plugin. A missing result means we have not tested that combination yet.
Security Signals
Objective signals discovered from package metadata and source inspection. These are not a guarantee that a plugin is safe.
