Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-tesseract-ocrPlugin 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
- Locally executes Tesseract OCR on attached images across supported platforms
- Shims LLM model resolution to permit image attachments on text-only models
- Rewrites message payloads via agent/pre-step hook to substitute images with recognized text
- Provides opt-in passthrough for authentic vision models
- Caches OCR recognition results per attachment ID for process lifetime
- Cleans up temporary image files safely after processing or on startup
Useful For
- Enabling text-only language models to process text from screenshots and image attachments
- Enforcing privacy-first local OCR workflows without leaking image binaries to remote APIs
- Automating multi-lingual document and text extraction inside DSH chat sessions
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users relying on text-only models
- Privacy-conscious developers processing confidential screenshots or documents
- Engineers utilizing local Tesseract CLI on Linux, macOS, or Windows
Documented Limitations
- Requires external tesseract binary and language packs installed on the host system
- Do not enable concurrently with windows-ocr to avoid redundant OCR execution
- OCR quality depends directly on installed language packs and PSM configuration
- Repository is archived
