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-ssh-remote connects DeepSeek Harness (Web/Desktop) to remote POSIX machines over OpenSSH. It discovers hosts from local ~/.ssh/config, installs a lightweight Python helper daemon on demand, and routes agent workspace operations, remote text editing, file previews, and interactive PTY terminals to the remote host while preserving directory containment.

Key Capabilities

  • Discovers concrete SSH hosts and authentication configurations directly from system OpenSSH config
  • Auto-deploys a versioned, content-addressed Python helper daemon via SSH stdin without root privileges
  • Integrates with DSH native workspace selector to browse and mount remote directory anchors
  • Provides native remote file tree browsing, read-only document preview, and remote text editing with dirty draft protection and atomic saves
  • Supports interactive remote PTY terminal panels running under the remote user account
  • Routes model shell/execution tasks to remote environments with bubblewrap container sandboxing on Linux
  • Enables remote '@' file reference auto-completion and fuzzy quick-open powered by remote ripgrep

Useful For

  • Developing and debugging on remote servers or cloud devboxes from within DeepSeek Harness
  • Executing long-running agent tasks and bash commands inside remote isolated Linux environments
  • Editing and reviewing remote codebases directly in Harness without cloning files locally

Who It Fits

  • Developers working on remote development environments, VPS instances, or internal cloud instances
  • DeepSeek Harness users needing remote terminal and remote file system interaction

Documented Limitations

  • Requires local Node.js 22+ and DSH 0.2.0-rc.2 or compatible 0.2.x releases
  • Remote host must be POSIX-compliant with Python 3.8+ installed
  • Remote search features (@ completion and quick open) require ripgrep (rg) installed in remote PATH
  • Cannot prompt for interactive passwords, passphrases, or MFA during automated connections (relies on SSH keys or ssh-agent)
  • DSH native 'Open locally / Show in Finder' shortcuts still target local anchors and cannot open remote files directly
