Versions:
DeepSeek Harness, published by deepseek, is a cross-platform desktop shell for the DeepSeek Harness dsh web interface, built with Tauri and WebView technology. Falling within the developer tools and desktop application category, it wraps the web interface in a native desktop experience while adding platform-specific capabilities, including a custom title bar, system tray integration, signed automatic updates, and task completion notifications. These features make it suited for users who prefer running the DeepSeek Harness workflow as a standalone desktop application rather than in a browser, while still receiving updates in a verifiable, secure manner. On first launch, the application checks the local machine for Node.js, pnpm, and the ~/.dsh home directory, and automatically downloads the required runtime and production dependencies if any of these are missing, reducing manual setup effort for new installations. The current version is desktop-v0.1.5-rc.2-0.1, and the catalog lists ten versions in total, indicating an active release history with multiple iterations available. Because the current release carries an rc (release candidate) designation, it represents a pre-release build on the path toward a stable 0.1.x line. Overall, DeepSeek Harness serves as the desktop distribution channel for the dsh web interface, combining the convenience of native window management and background tray operation with automated environment bootstrapping and signed update delivery across supported operating systems.
