What they did
Author Dusty-Dustin55 developed the dsh-file-context-menu plugin to add right-click context menus to the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) desktop chat area. The plugin recognizes file links, web links, directory paths, and extension-less paths in conversations, showing layered action options based on target type.
How it went
The author reports the plugin supports file citation insertion, path copying, internal/external opening, app selection, folder reveal, and save-as; handles ~230 extensions, UNC paths, Chinese filenames, and paths with spaces. (author_report; not tested by this site)
Worth knowing
Known limitations: "Open (Internal)" depends on the Sidebar Browser tab and fails when the Web profile is disabled; link citations insert plain URL text (not @ file references); "Save As" is subject to an ~10 MB byte limit; unresolved relative paths fall back to "Open (Internal)" and "Cite" only; the plugin depends on DSH 0.2.x client service names and needs review after major version upgrades. Privacy: the plugin does not upload data; diagnostic reporting is off by default and only writes to an in-memory local diagnostic interface after manual localStorage opt-in.
Steps
Install the plugin
Install dsh-file-context-menu from the DSH plugins page, or run the following command in your terminal:
Execution prompt · Source text。Terminal/PowerShell command execution
dsh plugin --profile desktop add dsh-file-context-menu
Restart DSH
After installation, fully quit DSH (including background processes) and relaunch. Client modules load only at startup; hot-reload does not apply.
