A field guide to the DeepSeek Harness plugin sprawl

What it does This repository is an awesome-list that catalogs plugins, extensions, and tools built for DeepSeek Harness (DSH), DeepSeek’s open-source agent framework where every capability is a swappable plugin. It sorts projects into categories like model providers, runtimes, UI clients, and skills, then ranks them by GitHub stars and verified external references. Each entry links to its canonical repository alongside a star count and independently verified references, and the list is maintained in both English and Chinese.

The interesting bit Rather than dumping every repo with “dsh” in the name, the list enforces inclusion criteria—public, useful, maintained, and clearly built for DSH—and tracks whether each entry has been independently referenced elsewhere. That makes it closer to a field guide than a fire hose, which is rare for awesome-lists in fast-moving AI ecosystems.

Key highlights

• Bilingual curation (English and Simplified Chinese) with a taxonomy aligned to the official DSH capability seams
• Entries ranked by GitHub stars, then by verified reference count
• Tracks canonical repos, current star counts, and independently verified references for each plugin
• Covers the full stack: model providers, tool skills, session storage, sandboxes, desktop clients, browser integrations, and devops utilities
• Explicitly warns readers to review a plugin’s code and permissions before installing

Caveats

• Nearly every plugin entry currently shows zero verified references, so the independent verification column is mostly empty for now
• The README claims daily curation, but the actual update cadence is unclear from the sources

Verdict Worth bookmarking if you are building with DeepSeek Harness and need a sorted starting point across model providers, clients, and runtimes. Skip it if you want a mature, fully vetted plugin registry; this is still an early volunteer effort.
