dsh-status-rotator

dsh-status-rotator

English | 中文

Replaces the Deep diving... status line in the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) Web UI's turn footer with your own text: phase-aware switching, typewriter output, animated rainbow gradient (optional), and timed rotation. The elapsed-time clock (which appears after 15 seconds) is untouched.

Installation

Two ways to install: the recommended dsh plugin add command, or the manual copy. Either way, you need to restart dsh web once after first install.

Option A: dsh plugin add (recommended)

The plugin's package.json declares a dsh.bundle.patch manifest, so it's recognized automatically after install — no extra flags needed. The command syntax is dsh plugin --profile <name> add <package> (e.g. --profile web):

• From npm (easiest): dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-status-rotator
• From a clone: dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-status-rotator
• From a release package: download the packaged tarball from the Release page, then dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-status-rotator-<version>.tgz.

Option B: manual install

1. Put this project directory under your profile's node_modules (default C:\Users\<you>\.dsh\profiles\node_modules\dsh-status-rotator\);

2. Insert the following into the profile's cordis.patch.yml:

   - insert:
       - id: status-rotator
         name: dsh-status-rotator
   

3. Run node gen-config.cjs to initialize the local config.json (copied from config.example.json);

4. Restart dsh web and hard-refresh the browser with Ctrl+F5.

Features

• Phase-aware: three sets of phrases — thinking (just started) / running (after 15s) / long (past the threshold). Switches immediately when the clock appears or the timeout hits, no need to wait for the rotation interval;
• Typewriter effect: phrases are typed out character by character, speed configurable, 0 disables it;
• Rainbow gradient: text rendered with an animated gradient, colors and speed configurable, can be turned off with one switch;
• Phrases separated from code: all phrases live in config.json, editing them requires zero code and no restart;
• Settings page: a new "Status Texts" page in DSH's Settings, with visual editing for the Chinese/English × three-phase phrase banks, saves take effect immediately;
• Auto-loading: the node half registers an HTTP route to serve config.json, works out of the box with no localStorage or deployment needed;
• Hot reload: while the page stays open it re-reads config.json periodically, and re-reads immediately when you switch back to the tab — no refresh needed to apply new phrases;
• Multilingual: phrases switch live between Chinese and English following Settings → Language, unknown languages fall back to Chinese;
• Zero-intrusion targeting: locates TurnStatus precisely by role="status" + aria-live="polite", so it never touches code snippets in the chat history or other aria-live regions, and never touches the clock.

Phase Awareness

Phrases are split into three groups based on turn progress (determined by whether a clock has appeared in the TurnStatus element and its reading):

Phase	Trigger	Default duration
thinking	Turn just started, no clock	0 ~ 15s
running	Clock visible, under the limit	15s ~ longAfterMs
long	Clock past longAfterMs	≥ 60s

Phase changes swap the phrase immediately without waiting for the rotation interval. If a phase has no phrase group, it falls back automatically (running → thinking → any non-empty group).

Rainbow Gradient

Status text is shown with an animated rainbow gradient by default (applies to the text only, not the clock). Can be disabled or re-colored in the config:

"gradient": {
    "enabled": false,                          // false to disable; true for default colors
    "colors": ["#ff5f6d", "#00ff88", "#4da6ff"], // gradient color sequence (at least 2, first/last cycle)
    "speed": 4                                 // animation speed (seconds per cycle)
}

Configuration

Phrases are fully separated from the source code and live in JSON config files. There are two config files at the project root:

• config.example.json — the complete template committed to the repo: default config + all phrases (bilingual, split into three phases);
• config.json — your local personalized config, initialized by node gen-config.cjs (only created when missing, never overwrites your changes). It's in .gitignore, so edit freely without polluting git.

Auto-loading (default): the plugin's node half registers an HTTP route (/plugins/dsh-status-rotator/config.json) that serves the config.json next to the plugin (read from disk on every request). The browser fetches it automatically by default, and while the page stays open it re-reads every reloadIntervalMs, plus immediately when you switch back to the tab, so as long as config.json sits in the plugin directory, phrase edits take effect without a refresh or restart. The only restart of dsh web needed is on first install.

{
    "config": { "intervalMs": 10000, "typeSpeedMs": 30, "longAfterMs": 60000, "reloadIntervalMs": 15000, "debug": false, "gradient": { "enabled": true, "colors": ["#ff5f6d", "#ffc371", "#ffdd55", "#7dff7d", "#5fd4ff", "#a78bfa", "#ff8adb"], "speed": 4 } },
    "phrases": { "zh": { "thinking": ["…"], "running": ["…"], "long": ["…"] }, "en": { "thinking": ["…"], "running": ["…"], "long": ["…"] } }
}

Key	Default	Description
intervalMs	10000	Rotation interval (ms)
typeSpeedMs	30	Typewriter delay per character (ms), 0 disables the typewriter
longAfterMs	60000	Threshold for entering the long phase
reloadIntervalMs	15000	Interval for auto re-reading config.json while the page is open (ms), 0 disables
debug	false	Console diagnostic logs
gradient	see above	Rainbow gradient: false / true / {enabled, colors, speed}
phrases	from config file	The phrases (Chinese/English × three phases; partial entries allowed, missing ones fall back to other sources)

Phrase source priority, highest first:

1. localStorage single-text override dsh-status-rotator.texts[.<locale>] / texts;
2. localStorage full config dsh-status-rotator.config (paste JSON, applies after refresh);
3. External JSON: dsh-status-rotator.url > EXTERNAL_URL constant > local auto-load (/plugins/dsh-status-rotator/config.json);
4. Built-in defaults: only DEFAULT_CONFIG at the top of lib/client.js (no phrases).

If a localStorage override matches, the external config.json is silently suppressed; the new version logs a [status-rotator] ⚠ localStorage override active warning in the browser console — when you see it, clear the corresponding key.

Old phrase-only external JSON ({ "zh": [...], "en": [...] } or { "thinking": [...] }) is still supported and treated as a "phrases-only config".

Phrases switch live between Chinese and English following Settings → Language; unknown languages fall back to Chinese.

Editing the Phrase Bank in the Settings Page

Open Settings in the bottom-left of DSH and a new Status Texts page appears in the navigation:

• 中文 / English tabs, each with three text boxes for thinking / running / long, one phrase per line, blank lines are ignored;
• Each phase shows the current phrase count in real time;
• Basic settings (rotation interval, typewriter speed, long-task threshold, auto-reload interval) live on the same page;
• Clicking "Save Phrase Bank" makes the browser PUT the full JSON to /plugins/dsh-status-rotator/config.json; the node half validates it and writes it back atomically, and already-open pages hot-apply it immediately without a refresh;
• Submitted content is validated (phrases must be string arrays, etc.); invalid content returns 400 and shows an error on the page, so the config file can't be corrupted.

After upgrading to a version with the settings page, restart dsh web once (so the node half registers the write endpoint); everything after that can be done from the page.

QQ Group Member Phrase Generator

To turn every member of a QQ group into a phrase like 正在路由（群成员）写代码... (meaning "routing (group member) to write code..."), use scripts/fetch-qq-group.cjs to generate a standalone config file in one go — no need to type out the member list by hand.

Prerequisites: the bot is in the target group and you have a OneBot v11 compatible HTTP API (e.g. NapCat / LLOneBot / go-cqhttp / OpenShamrock).

# The default group is 684306814; generates config.qq684306814.json directly
node scripts/fetch-qq-group.cjs --url http://127.0.0.1:3000 --token your-token

# Directly replace the config.json the plugin actually uses (the old one is backed up as config.backup-<timestamp>.json)
node scripts/fetch-qq-group.cjs --url http://127.0.0.1:3000 --token your-token --activate

# No bot API? Save the member list as members.txt (one nickname per line) and generate from it
node scripts/fetch-qq-group.cjs --input members.txt

Option	Default	Description
-g, --group	684306814	QQ group ID (also reads the QQ_GROUP_ID env var)
-u, --url	http://127.0.0.1:3000	OneBot HTTP URL (also reads ONEBOT_HTTP_URL)
-t, --token	empty	Access token (also reads ONEBOT_ACCESS_TOKEN)
-a, --action	get_group_member_list	Action path; frameworks with a prefix use /api/...
-i, --input	none	Local member list: txt (one per line) / json (array) / csv (first column)
-o, --output	config.qq684306814.json	Output file
--activate	off	Write back to config.json directly and back up the old file
--dry-run	off	Preview only, writes nothing

The display name prefers the group card name, falling back to the nickname. The generated file contains only the zh.thinking group: per this plugin's fallback rules, the thinking phase uses it directly and the other phases fall back to the same group. Template: config.qq684306814.example.json; the generated config.qq684306814.json is gitignored.
