dsh-console

Console commands for DeepSeek Harness: manage the web service, the SSH tunnel, one-shot questions, and an optional console TUI — straight from the slash-command plane.

Quick start

# 1. install the bundle
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-console

# 2. restart dsh web, then use the commands
/web status
/tunnel status

Out of the box, /web and /tunnel status work with zero config (the plugin auto-detects the running dsh entry). Configure the tunnel host and the console TUI path in the profile's cordis.patch.yml:

- id: dsh-console
  config:
    tunnelHost: '192.168.1.100'        # your SSH server
    tunnelUser: 'root'
    tunnelKey: 'C:\\Users\\you\\.ssh\\id_rsa'
    consoleCommand: 'python C:\\tools\\dsh-tui\\main.py'

Then dsh plugin --profile web again + restart, and /tunnel start / /console are live.

Commands

Command	Description
/web status	Is the web UI up? (port + PID)
/web start	Background-start the web UI (node <dshBin> web --port <webPort>)
/web stop	Stop the web UI process
/web restart	Restart it
/tunnel status	Is the SSH tunnel up?
/tunnel start	Start the SSH tunnel (needs tunnelHost)
/tunnel stop	Stop the tunnel
/ask <问题>	One-shot question through the headless profile (timeout-bounded)
/console	Launch the console TUI (needs consoleCommand)

Configuration

All keys carry sensible defaults; set them in the profile's cordis.patch.yml (or a --patch overlay), overriding the row this bundle adds:

- id: dsh-console
  config:
    webPort: 3080            # dsh web UI port
    dshBin: ''               # path to apps/cli/lib/bin.js; empty = auto-detect
    tunnelHost: '192.168.1.100'
    tunnelUser: 'root'
    tunnelKey: 'C:\\Users\\you\\.ssh\\id_rsa'
    tunnelLocalPort: 3081
    tunnelRemotePort: 3080
    askTimeout: 150
    consoleCommand: 'python C:\\tools\\dsh-tui\\main.py'

Key	Default	Meaning
webPort	3080	The dsh web UI listens on 127.0.0.1:3080 by default; /web start spawns it there.
dshBin	auto	Absolute path to your checkout's apps/cli/lib/bin.js. Empty = detected from the running process (process.argv[1]), so a from-source dsh usually needs no config.
tunnelHost	''	SSH server host. Empty disables /tunnel start.
tunnelUser	root	SSH user on the server.
tunnelKey	''	Absolute path to your SSH private key (-i). Omit for agent/other auth.
tunnelLocalPort	3081	Local listen port of the tunnel (127.0.0.1:3081).
tunnelRemotePort	3080	Remote port the tunnel forwards to (127.0.0.1:3080 on the server).
askTimeout	150	Seconds before /ask is killed.
consoleCommand	''	Shell command launching your console TUI.

How the tunnel is wired

your machine                     SSH server (tunnelHost)
127.0.0.1:3081  ──ssh -L──▶  127.0.0.1:3080
   ▲                               ▲
   │  /tunnel start binds here     │  dsh web runs here (or any service)

/tunnel start runs ssh -N -L <tunnelLocalPort>:127.0.0.1:<tunnelRemotePort> <tunnelUser>@<tunnelHost> (with -i <tunnelKey> when set) as a detached process. /tunnel stop finds and kills the listener on tunnelLocalPort.
