Introduction

Use Harmony when one DeepSeek Harness plugin needs to change another without maintaining a fork. Harmony loads Patches before the target runs, changes its compiled code in memory, and starts Harness with the result.

Source Patches find TypeScript AST nodes with TSQuery and rewrite their source ranges with MagicString. They run one after another, each reading the source left by the previous Patch. This lets several plugins change the same target while leaving installed files untouched.

A provider can place its Patches before or after another provider. One Patch may override that rule, and users may interleave Patches from different providers. When several changes must succeed together, a composite Patch gives them one position and one switch; if a member fails, Harmony applies none of them.

For browser plugins, Harmony also keeps provider-owned <style data-plugin> tags in Patch order. A provider owns one style group, so its last enabled Patch decides where that group appears in the CSS cascade. Harmony repeats the ordering after a Patch reload.

Harmony adds modification to the ways DeepSeek Harness plugins can work together.

Why Harmony

Ordinary DSH extension points remain the first choice when the target exposes the behavior you need. Harmony is for the gap between those APIs and maintaining a fork: changing an internal component, loader entry, or compiled behavior that the target does not expose.

Harmony does not turn compiled internals into a stable public API. It makes that dependency explicit, ordered, inspectable, and reversible.

Respect

Inspired by Harmony, the project of the same name created by Andreas Pardeike and other contributors for C#.

Install

Requires Node.js ^22.22.3 or >=24.11.1 and @deepseek-ai/[email protected].

npm install -g @deepseek-ai/[email protected]
npm install -g dsh-harmony
dsh web

Open Settings → Harmony after starting the WebUI. For profiles, Desktop integration, updates, and removal, see the installation guide.

Patch model

Harmony runs every Patch from one global patchOrder. Provider-level before and after rules set the usual order. A Patch that declares either rule uses its own rules instead. In Settings → Harmony, users can move a whole provider or place one Patch between Patches from another provider. Harmony checks that the saved list contains every registered Patch exactly once.

A composite Patch groups several Patches under one order position and switch. Members keep their declared order and apply only when every member succeeds. A failed standalone Patch is reported and skipped; later Patches and the Host continue to run.

React-aware patches

Install dsh-harmony-react in a Patch provider when the target is compiled React:

npm install dsh-harmony-react

Use element() to change selected compiled jsx / jsxs calls. Use component() to change the shared component definition. Harmony applies both in the same Patch order as every other Source Patch.

To let later Component Patches modify the same definition, Harmony rewrites a function declaration as an initialized const. The new binding is not hoisted. If the file reads the component before its declaration, use a core Source Patch instead. React integration covers selectors, Inspect traces, and Studio.

Development

All maintained implementation code uses TypeScript. Build artifacts are generated for packaging and are not tracked by Git.

Documentation sources and local preview tooling live on the docs branch.
