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.
Key Capabilities
- Manual handoff via /handoff command with turn count or all turns option
- Automatic triggering based on context window thresholds, session size, or compaction events
- Health row widget displaying context usage, session size, and estimated remaining turns
- Automatic child session creation inheriting workspace cwd, model routing, and agent presets
- Client auto-navigation to newly generated child sessions
- Structured handoff document disk persistence and in-settings decision history logging
Useful For
- Preventing model forgetting and performance slowdowns during long agentic coding sessions
- Transitioning long multi-turn troubleshooting conversations into clean context spaces
- Keeping comprehensive audit trails of session progression without duplicating full chat histories
Who It Fits
- Developers running long, context-heavy coding or debugging sessions in DeepSeek Harness
- DSH users who want to avoid context compaction degradation while keeping original logs
Documented Limitations
- Supports DSH 0.1.0-rc.5 through 0.1.1-rc.2 and desktop kernel 0.2.0-rc.2; incompatible with 0.1.2-alpha.1 without client migration
- Relies on host-deprecated session.snapshotEvents() for extracting turn history
- Session chain indexing degrades after DSH host restart because chain tracking state is in-memory only
- Failed automatic handoff attempts are not retried automatically and require manual triggering
