Best DeepSeek Harness Notification Plugins (2026)
The best DeepSeek Harness (dsh) notification and integration plugins, ranked by real GitHub stars: desktop alerts, VS Code, Feishu, Telegram, and phone calls.

What this category actually covers
Notifications & Integrations is the catch-all for anything that bridges a dsh session to somewhere outside the Web UI: desktop alerts when a turn finishes, an IM bot you can chat with, an editor you can jump into, or an ACP bridge that lets a different client drive the agent. It's a smaller category than Tools & Capabilities or UI Enhancements — 30 plugins in FindHarness's full catalog as of August 2026 — but it's the one most people reach for once they stop watching the browser tab and start letting sessions run in the background.
This list is built entirely from the human-reviewed awesome-dsh-plugin collection — the same curated (source=awesome) set FindHarness uses to power its homepage and category rankings — rather than the auto-discovered plugins that also appear in the full catalog. Star counts are a snapshot as of August 2026 and this is a fast-moving ecosystem, so treat rankings as directional. Every plugin below installs the same way — see How to Install DeepSeek Harness Plugins for the full command reference, including the allowBuilds prompt you'll likely hit on a GitHub install.

1. dsh-open-in-vscode — 40 stars
Category: Notifications & Integrations · Repo: omdsh-dev/dsh-open-in-vscode
A one-purpose plugin: it adds a button to the DSH Web GUI that opens the current workspace directory straight in VS Code, no cd and no manual code . in a separate terminal. If your actual editing happens in VS Code and dsh is just the agent driving it, this closes the gap between the two.

2. dsh-notification — 40 stars
Category: Notifications & Integrations · Repo: omdsh-dev/dsh-notification
Desktop notifications for turn completions — the thing you actually want once you start running longer, multi-step tasks and stop babysitting the tab. It supports per-outcome controls (success vs. error vs. approval-needed) and keyword rules, so you can tune it down to "only ping me when it needs an approval" instead of a notification for every single turn.

3. dsh-suite (plugin-notify) — 16 stars
Category: Notifications & Integrations · Repo: whyihaveyou/dsh-suite
The broadest reach on this list: one plugin fans out IM webhook and local notifications on turn completion, errors, or approval requests to Feishu, WeCom, DingTalk, Slack, Discord, or a custom webhook. If your team already lives in one of those chat tools, this is the fastest way to get dsh talking into the same channel without writing your own webhook glue.

Installs from the packages/plugins/plugin-notify subpath inside the repo — see the plugin page for the full install note.
4. dsh-lark-bridge — 6 stars
Category: Notifications & Integrations · Repo: imetn/dsh-lark-bridge
A more full-featured Feishu/Lark controller than a plain notification hook: bidirectional, with project and session routing, interactive cards, in-chat approvals, attachments, and task controls. Worth the look if Feishu is your team's actual command center and you want two-way control, not just a one-way ping.

5. dsh-feishu-bridge — 4 stars
Category: Notifications & Integrations · Repo: wz-heng/dsh-feishu-bridge
A second, security-first take on the same idea: a fail-closed Feishu channel bridge built only on the official Python SDK (exact-pinned), with a deny-by-default allowlist, webhook signature/timestamp/replay verification, and per-chat sticky sessions, plus bilingual docs. If you're going to expose a chat surface to a group, the explicit security posture here is the differentiator worth reading before you pick between this and dsh-lark-bridge above.

6. dsh-plugin-call-me — 3 stars
Category: Notifications & Integrations · Repo: radres/dsh-plugin-call-me
The most literal notification plugin on this list: it rings your phone over CallKit. It adds call_me and text_me tools the agent can invoke directly, plus optional turn-end and approval calls whose spoken answer gets transcribed back into the session — so you can approve a risky action by talking into the phone instead of looking at a screen.

Rounding out the category: dsh-web-ui-notify (11 stars, simple desktop reminders), dsh-acp-for-bitfun and deepseek-harness-acp (ACP bridges for BitFun and Zed respectively), telegram (6 stars, Telegram Bot API), dsh-lark-meeting-notifier (6 stars, a Feishu meeting reminder that interrupts your flow on purpose), dsh-session-notification (5 stars, notifications for four session states), dsh-webbridge (3 stars, Kimi WebBridge), dsh-plugin-notify (3 stars, toast/TTS/sound-effect outbox, published to npm), and dsh-im-bridge (2 stars, two-way WeChat/iLink bridge). Browse all of them on the Notifications & Integrations category page.
FAQ
Does dsh have built-in notifications?
No. The base and web bundles don't ship a desktop-alert or chat-webhook feature — you get it by installing one of the plugins above. That's consistent with dsh's "everything is a plugin" design: notification delivery isn't a core capability, it's a ctx.tools/event-listener plugin like anything else.
Which one should I install first?
If you just want to stop staring at the tab, start with dsh-notification for local desktop alerts. If your team coordinates in Feishu, WeCom, DingTalk, Slack, or Discord, dsh-suite's plugin-notify covers all of them from one install.
Can I get notified only on approval requests, not every turn?
Several of these support per-outcome filtering — dsh-notification explicitly advertises per-outcome controls and keyword rules. Check each plugin's README on its plugin page for the exact configuration keys before installing.
Are ACP bridge plugins the same thing as notifications?
Not quite — ACP (Agent Client Protocol) plugins like dsh-acp-for-bitfun and deepseek-harness-acp let a different client application drive a dsh agent over JSON-RPC stdio, which is adjacent to notifications but really about swapping the front-end. They're grouped in this category because they're both "integration" surfaces rather than core agent capabilities.
