dsh-xingtu-skills · XingTu Skills Plugin for DeepSeek Harness (DSH)

26 production-grade AI agent skills, packaged as a standard DeepSeek Harness (DSH) plugin — one command to install.

---

What is this

This plugin packages the 26 production-grade SKILL.md skills from xingtu-skills into a standard DeepSeek Harness plugin bundle. After install, DSH's session skill catalog loads all skills automatically and triggers them on demand (progressive disclosure) — no manual copying.

Each skill follows the cross-tool de-facto standard (name + description + when_to_use) and is also compatible with Claude Code / CodeBuddy / Codex / Cursor / Gemini CLI.

Install

# From npm (recommended)

Structure

├── package.json        # dsh.bundle.patch → ./cordis.patch.yml (standard plugin declaration)

• Plugin contract: exports name + apply(ctx) (inject: ['skills']); every contribution goes through ctx.effect() / ctx.skills.register() and is auto-disposed on unload.
• Zero dependencies: no Cordis copy is bundled; @deepseek-ai/dsh is only an optional peerDependency.
• Validated: passes dsh-plugin-dev check (static checks) + dsh-plugin-dev verify (clean-DSH_HOME install / boot / uninstall).
