Adaptive DeepSeek Harness web-search tool that uses Thompson sampling to choose quick or thorough search strategies.
Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add github:siruignaw-sys/dsh-tool-bandit-searchPlugin 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
- Installs as a DeepSeek Harness plugin bundle via `dsh plugin --profile web add`.
- Provides a `search(query)` tool in place of the standard `web_search` tool.
- Chooses between `quick` (one query, up to 5 results) and `thorough` (three parallel query variants, deduplicated, up to 10 results).
- Uses Thompson sampling with Beta-distribution arm statistics to balance exploration and exploitation.
- Calculates continuous rewards from normalized result count and latency.
- Logs the selected strategy, reward, duration, result count, and running arm statistics.
Useful For
- Adapting web-search breadth to simple factual versus open-ended questions.
- Reducing unnecessary broad searches for queries that can be answered with a focused lookup.
- Exploring multiple query angles for questions that benefit from broader coverage.
- Experimenting with bandit-based tool-selection behavior in DeepSeek Harness.
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users with a configured native web-search provider.
- Developers experimenting with adaptive search-tool strategies.
- Users of the DeepSeek Harness Web UI.
Documented Limitations
- Bandit state is held in memory and resets when the application restarts.
- The reward heuristic measures result count and latency, not source relevance, correctness, or final-answer quality.
- The plugin optimizes strategy per search call and does not prevent the model from making multiple calls in one turn.
- It requires dsh's native `ctx.web` search service and an already configured search provider.
- The README states it was built and tested against a DSH developer preview, whose plugin and tool APIs may change before stable release.
- Bundle installation takes effect only after restarting the Web UI; its prompt instruction applies to newly started sessions.
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.
