DeepSeek Harness as VSCode Extension
DeepSeek Harness VSCode Extension brings a VS Code-style interface to Harness: a native file picker, current-focus awareness, editor problems surfaced into the agent context, and an agent-preset selector for blank sessions. The status bar exposes usage and context consumption, so developers can watch token burn without leaving the editor.
Install
code --install-extension weinibuliu.dsh-vscInstall from the Visual Studio Marketplace (itemName weinibuliu.dsh-vsc) or build the VSIX from GitHub Releases. The extension expects a reachable dsh CLI (npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh or npx @deepseek-ai/dsh); the README marks dsh 0.1.0-rc.6 as the tested version.
Compatibility
Visual Studio Code extension for DeepSeek Harness. Requires the dsh CLI discoverable on PATH. Community project (MIT) that may only work with specific dsh builds while Harness changes.
