Install
$ dsh plugin --profile web add 'github:fwerkor/local-shell-mcp#main'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
- Installs into a DSH web profile as a bundle using the repository Git spec.
- Bridges the local-shell-mcp Streamable HTTP/MCP service to DSH.
- Exposes shell execution, persistent shells, jobs, filesystem operations, search, patching, and Git through shell tools.
- Provides browser automation tools and a Live Workspace view for activity, terminals, files, diffs, jobs, remotes, and audit data.
- Supports remote-worker management and transfer for connected remote machines.
- Supports dynamic MCP tool discovery and calls, Agent Skills, durable logical sessions, and optional planning tools.
Useful For
- Operate a controlled workspace from a DSH conversation.
- Run builds, tests, debugging commands, and Git CLI workflows through a local-shell-mcp runtime.
- Inspect and edit workspace files or automate browser tasks.
- Work with outbound-connected lab, HPC, GPU/NPU, or build machines.
- Maintain per-conversation task context and inspect activity in Live Workspace.
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users running local-shell-mcp on the same host.
- Developers and operators needing MCP-mediated shell and workspace access.
- Teams working with controlled container or VM environments and remote workers.
Documented Limitations
- Requires a normal local-shell-mcp HTTP/MCP service running on the same host.
- The project states that the container or VM, rather than the host, is the intended safety boundary.
- The connected model should be treated as having control of the container or VM.
- Remote-worker access depends on configured and connected workers.
- The repository recommends pinning the Git specification to a reviewed release or commit for production.
