English · 简体中文

Workspace-scoped file attachments, document reading, local OCR, and page rendering for DeepSeek Harness Web.

dsh-open-file brings files of any format into DeepSeek Harness conversations. Its included agent tools inspect each upload and read, OCR, or render the content available for the task through one traceable workflow.

Drag files into the conversation
Drop one or more files anywhere in DeepSeek Harness Web to add them to the active session.

Features

• Adds an Add → Attachment action to the existing + menu.
• Accepts multiple files through the system picker and page-wide drag and drop.
• Presents compact draft cards with format icons, upload progress, cancellation, retry, and removal controls.
• Places sent attachment cards directly below their user message and keeps the conversation aligned.
• Streams same-origin binary uploads into the active session workspace.
• Provides four agent tools: file_inspect, file_read, file_ocr, and file_render.
• Reads text, PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, bounded ZIP archives, common image formats, and metadata for regular files.
• Runs English and Simplified Chinese OCR with packaged language data.
• Returns source hashes, locators, cursors, parsers, and stable references for traceable reasoning.

Compatibility

Component	Version or requirement
DeepSeek Harness	0.1.0-rc.6
Node.js	>=22.13.0
Operating systems	Windows, Linux, macOS
Browser APIs	fetch, XMLHttpRequest, File, drag and drop

The Web integration uses the rc.6 input-trigger registration, conversation renderer, native image workflow, and client runtime APIs. Compatibility checks report FILE_WEB_COMPATIBILITY when the host contract requires attention.

Install

Install the latest npm release:

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-open-file

Install version 0.1.1:

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-open-file@0.1.1

Install a locally reviewed package:

npm ci
npm pack
dsh plugin --profile web add ./dsh-open-file-0.1.1.tgz

The package activates the Host service, Web client, and Open File Skill through cordis.patch.yml. npm presents this README.md as the package documentation.

Quick start

1. Open a DeepSeek Harness session with an active workspace.
2. Select + → Add → Attachment, or drop one or more files onto the Web app.
3. Review the draft cards and wait for the ready state.
4. Send the message to create session-bound dsh-open-file://attachment/v1/... references.
5. Let the Assistant inspect, read, OCR, or render the selected content.

Upload any file format whenever your task calls for it
Documents, data, source code, archives, images, and every other format share one attachment flow.

Tool	Role
file_inspect	Returns metadata, parser details, and selectable part_ref values
file_read	Reads a selected part with text cursors or worksheet ranges
file_ocr	Runs local English and Simplified Chinese OCR on a selected image part
file_render	Renders a selected document part to a workspace PNG

Image files integrate with the DSH image workflow. Documents and regular files use the workspace attachment workflow.

Configuration

Version 0.1.1 uses packaged release defaults. cordis.patch.yml registers the Host service, Web client, and Skill. Resource limits are listed below and represented in the public contract.

Permissions, storage, and protocol

Source files and derived artifacts live under the active session workspace:

<workspace>/.dsh/open-file/v1/sessions/<sha256(session-id)>/

The plugin reads and writes this session directory and registers same-origin upload routes on the DSH Web Host. OCR uses the packaged eng and chi_sim language data.

POST   /dsh-open-file/v1/uploads/prepare
PUT    /dsh-open-file/v1/uploads/<upload-id>     application/octet-stream
POST   /dsh-open-file/v1/uploads/<upload-id>/commit
DELETE /dsh-open-file/v1/uploads/<upload-id>

Tool responses include the source hash, parser, locator, cursor, and canonical references. Extracted file content is tagged as untrusted evidence for downstream reasoning.

Default limits

Limit	Default
File size	256 MiB
Draft files per session	20
Draft bytes per session	512 MiB
ZIP entries	10,000
Expanded ZIP entry	64 MiB
Total expanded ZIP bytes	512 MiB
ZIP compression ratio	100:1
Upload timeout	300 seconds
Parse and render timeout	30 seconds
OCR timeout	120 seconds
Rendered pixels	40,000,000

These values define the 0.1.1 resource envelope.

Security

• Session references, active Agent sessions, authoritative workspaces, and disk metadata participate in one validation chain.
• Canonical containment and symlink-aware checks protect managed workspace paths.
• ZIP validation covers normalized paths, links, encryption, duplicates, CRC integrity, archive depth, expansion size, and compression ratio.
• Office XML validation covers declarations, entities, and relationship targets.
• Type detection uses magic bytes and container structure.
• Published sources are immutable; derived artifacts use exclusive creation and atomic metadata replacement.

See SECURITY.md for the security policy and reporting process.

Troubleshooting

• Attachment entry: confirm that the Web client plugin is active and the Host matches DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6.
• Upload: confirm the live session, workspace permissions, same-origin route, and resource limits.
• OCR: select an image part or a PNG generated by file_render, then choose eng, chi_sim, or both languages.
• Document parsing: use file_inspect to review the detected type, parser, and available parts.

Stable error codes are exported from the package contract and included in tool failures for programmatic handling.

Uninstall

dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-open-file

Install a selected release to complete a version change:

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-open-file@0.1.1

Development

npm ci
npm run typecheck
npm run lint
npm test
npm run build
npm run verify:release
npm pack

The release workflow runs type checks, linting, the complete automated test suite, production builds, and npm artifact inspection across Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Release gate

GitHub and npm publication begins after maintainer approval of both README files and the generated tarball. Final acceptance covers package installation, Web startup, file selection, drag and drop, uploads, message rendering, all four tools, draft controls, and plugin removal.
