dshtui

English | 中文

dshtui is a terminal UI plugin for DeepSeek Harness (dsh), built on Ink, in the TUI style of opencode. It mounts into a dsh profile as a bundle plugin and takes over the whole terminal interface: streaming chat, foldable tool cards, dialogs, and a plugin contribution API covering every visible surface.

This project exists as a plugin of DeepSeek Harness.

Requirements

• Node.js ^22.19.0 or >=24.0.0
• The dsh CLI: npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh

Install

npm install -g @xp266/dshtui@latest
dshtui

dshtui first resolves the profile to boot (DSH_TUI_PROFILE overrides; otherwise the dshtui profile, an existing profile that already mounts this package, or a freshly created one), installs or upgrades the plugin inside it, then launches dsh --profile <name>.

The launcher is optional; install the plugin into any profile by hand:

dsh plugin --profile <name> add @xp266/dshtui@latest
dsh --profile <name>

Configuration

The plugin reads its config from the matching profile row:

- id: tui
  name: '@xp266/dshtui'
  config:
    colors: {}            # palette overrides (color name -> hex)
    maxFps: 240
    bootListTimeout: 10000
    alternateScreen: true
    collapse:             # tool-card fold policy
      maxLines: 16        # fold bodies over this many rendered rows
      previewLines: 8     # rows kept visible while folded
      folded: []          # tool names that always fold
      expanded: []        # tool names that never fold

Environment variables: DSH_TUI_PROFILE, DSH_TUI_COLOR, DSH_TUI_ASCII, DSH_TUI_WIDTH, DSH_TUI_BG, DSH_TUI_LANG, DSH_TUI_HOT_THEME, DSH_TUI_THEME_PATH, DSH_TUI_DEBUG, and the DSH_TUI_LOG_* family.

Plugin development

Every visible surface of the interface is a keyed contribution registry behind the tui service. The full contribution map lives in the extension point guide.
