dsh-skill-remote

Remote skill source for DeepSeek Harness: discover and install skills from skills.sh and public GitHub repositories, directly from your agent.

• A remote skill provider (ctx.skills): candidates discovered from skills.sh / github.com URLs appear in the session skill catalog beside local skills; bodies load on demand.
• An install_skill tool for the model: downloads a skill bundle atomically into $DSH_HOME/skills//, where the built-in filesystem provider takes it over — no restart needed.

Zero configuration: with no remotes configured and no installs, the plugin performs no network I/O.

Install

Requires the DeepSeek Harness next line (dsh ≥ 0.1.0-rc.6, which ships dsh-skill 0.1.0-rc.6). From GitHub (sources; pnpm builds via prepare):

dsh plugin --profile default add github:you/dsh-skill-remote

pnpm ≥ 10 asks you to allow the build — add the printed package key to the profile's pnpm-workspace.yaml:

allowBuilds:
  dsh-skill-remote: true

Then re-run the add. (Treat the allowance as permission to run this package's build on your machine; pin a commit if you prefer: github:you/dsh-skill-remote#.)

From npm (prebuilt, no build permission needed):

dsh plugin --profile default add dsh-skill-remote

Usage

Say to the agent:

Install the skill at https://github.com/anthropics/skills/tree/main/skills/docx

The model calls install_skill, and the skill becomes available through the skill tool immediately. You can also pre-register read-only remote sources:

# profile cordis.patch.yml
- update:
    - id: skill-remote
      config:
        remotes:
          - https://github.com/anthropics/skills/tree/main/skills/docx

Supported URL shapes: https://www.skills.sh///, https://github.com///tree//, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/////.
