How this list is selected

DeepSeek Harness launched its developer preview with a fast-moving ecosystem. We prioritize focused repositories with public source, clear dsh integration, documented installation, and a capability that changes what a profile can do.

This is an editorial snapshot, not a security audit. GitHub stars are volatile and several projects require a source checkout rather than a stable registry package.

The current standouts

  • DSH Vision Toolkit — the broadest visual toolset, covering OCR, grounding, UI restoration, and pixel comparison.
  • Tianshu TUI — a capable terminal-native interface with sessions, approvals, images, and rewind.
  • Custom Tool — a web-based environment for authoring sandboxed JavaScript tools.
  • @File Mentions — fast workspace references directly from the web composer.
  • Open in VS Code — a focused workspace-to-editor bridge.
  • Notifications — configurable browser alerts for turn outcomes.
  • Turn Rewind — conversation and workspace rollback backed by a persistent ledger.
  • Visualize — sandboxed interactive HTML cards inside conversation history.

Two categories to watch

The community topic already contains hundreds of repositories, but many are brand new or only loosely related. Model provider and standalone sandbox plugins are the two most important categories that still need mature, well-documented choices.

  • Model routing that cleanly separates provider credentials and usage accounting.
  • Portable sandboxes with explicit filesystem, network, and process permissions.

How to choose a plugin

Prefer a small plugin that solves the exact gap in your profile. Review the README, manifest, package scripts, release history, and open issues. Confirm the install source and profile, then try it in a disposable workspace before bringing it into important sessions.

Browse the live directory

The DeepSeekPlugins directory groups source-linked projects by Tools, Skills, Sessions, Sandboxes, Storage, and UI. Each plugin has a dedicated page with its current install path and repository.
