Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-windows-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 extracts text from image attachments using Windows.Media.Ocr via PowerShell
- Intercepts agent/pre-step lifecycle to substitute image payloads with parsed text blocks
- Shims llm capability resolution so text-only models can accept image inputs
- Caches recognition results per attachment ID for process lifetime efficiency
- Ensures fail-closed privacy defaults with optional raw vision passthrough
Useful For
- Feeding screenshots or document photos to text-only language models without leaking raw image binaries
- Extracting textual content from images while running DeepSeek Harness in air-gapped or privacy-conscious Windows environments
- Reducing token and bandwidth costs by transmitting extracted text strings instead of heavy image payloads
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users running on Windows 10/11
- Developers seeking privacy-preserving OCR integration for text models
- Teams working with sensitive documents who need local image text extraction
Documented Limitations
- Requires Windows 10/11 with relevant OCR-capable Windows language packs installed
- Only processes the first frame of animated GIF images
- Requires PowerShell execution access for invoking the local OCR script
- Repository is archived on GitHub
