dsh-message-copy-enhance
A DeepSeek Harness client UI plugin: when you select text in a model message and copy it, the clipboard content is rewritten to Markdown, so links, LaTeX source, code-fence language info, and more are no longer lost.
How it works
DSH renders model output via dsh-client-ui-conversation → dsh-client-ui-primitives:
| Content | DOM shape | Recovery |
|---|---|---|
| Links | <a href="..."> | Take the href directly, output [label](url) |
| Inline / block LaTeX | KaTeX-rendered .katex / .katex-display | Retrieve the TeX source from the <annotation encoding="application/x-tex"> in the MathML branch, output $...$ / $$...$$ |
| Code blocks | .md-code-block (banner shows the language) + pre | Output a fenced code block; the language comes from the language-* class or the banner's infostring |
| Headings / emphasis / lists / quotes / tables | Standard HTML | Recovered as GFM |
The plugin listens for copy on document in the capture phase, and takes over only when the selection starts inside a [data-chat-flow-kind="assistant"] message and contains markdown-significant elements:
- Expand the selection to the full
.katexelement (selecting in the middle of a formula still gets the complete source) - Clone the selection DOM with
Range.cloneContents() - Recover the markdown with the built-in zero-dependency DOM→Markdown converter (
src/client/toMarkdown.ts, written in TypeScript, type-erased and inlined into the bundle) preventDefault()and writetext/plainandtext/markdown
Other selections (user bubbles, tool cards, plain text) and empty selections are completely unaffected; if conversion fails, the default copy behavior is restored automatically.

Build & test
npm install # dev deps: typescript / vite / vitest / @types/node / linkedom / @deepseek-ai/cordis (official types)
npm run typecheck # tsc -p tsconfig.json — full type check (strict)
npm run build # vite build — bundle src/client into dist/client.js in the DSH module-loader format
npm test # vitest run — 36 cases (converter / real bundle / package layout)
npm run test:watch # vitest — watch mode
npm run test:coverage # vitest run --coverage — v8 coverage report
