Community Voice & Feedback
good move making this an actual app instead of just the CLI. question on the scheduled tasks part - do those run as a background daemon that survives a reboot/logout, or does the desktop app need to stay open and logged in the whole time for a scheduled job to fire?
Congrats on the desktop release — keeping the CLI's plugin model while adding scheduled and background tasks feels like a practical step for everyday use.
Was waiting for it, thanks for making the desktop version. Can't wait to test it.
Good to see an official desktop app for the harness, running the same plugin system as the CLI locally is a real convenience. Signing in once and then running scheduled tasks without touching a terminal will save a lot of friction for daily use.
Would love to know scheduled tasks behave when the computer is offline. Do they resume automatically?
Having the same plugin system as the CLI in a desktop app sounds useful. Does it support custom plugin too?
Hi everyone!DeepSeek Harness already existed as a CLI and web UI. You installed Node, ran:npx @deepseek-ai/dsh weband worked from the browser.Now there’s a desktop app for Mac and Windows. Install it, sign in with your DeepSeek account or an API key, and you’re in. Workspaces, plugins, background and scheduled tasks, and the “everything is a plugin” setup all come with it.You can leave DSH running next to the rest of your apps and use it for files, docs, coding, research, or recurring jobs without starting from the terminal each time. That makes DSH much easier to use every day!
