dsh-same-mode-sandbox-noop

A removable compatibility plugin for DeepSeek Harness / DSH 0.1.0-rc.6.

That release rejects a tool call when sandbox_permissions names a mode that is already covered by the call's effective sandbox mode:

Error: sandbox escalation to "danger-full-access" is not strictly wider than
this call's current "danger-full-access" mode

The plugin wraps both ctx.tools.execute() and the rc.6 Agent Loop scheduler's preparation entry point before DSH snapshots and freezes tool arguments. For bash, pwsh, write, and edit, it removes the paired sandbox_permissions and justification fields when the requested mode is equal to or narrower than the calling session's effective mode. The original runtime then executes the call under its standing policy. For example, a workspace-write request in a danger-full-access session is not an escalation, so the redundant pair is removed.

Genuinely wider requests, unknown modes, malformed argument pairs, empty justifications, unrelated tools, and calls without escalation fields pass to DSH unchanged. Disposal restores the original runtime methods.

This is an out-of-tree compatibility workaround. Prefer a DSH release that handles non-escalating requests in the shared sandbox escalation layer when one is available.

Install into a DSH profile

Until this package is published to npm, clone it and add the local directory:

git clone https://github.com/zhangzujian/dsh-same-mode-sandbox-noop.git
cd dsh-same-mode-sandbox-noop
npx @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.0-rc.6 plugin --profile web add "$PWD"

The package declares a DSH bundle, so dsh plugin adds its patch layer to the profile automatically. Restart dsh web after installation.

To remove it:

npx @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.0-rc.6 plugin --profile web remove @zhangzujian/dsh-same-mode-sandbox-noop

For a one-off local overlay without profile installation, insert the plugin by file URL in a patch loaded after the base bundle:

- insert:
    - id: same-mode-sandbox-noop
      name: file:///absolute/path/to/dsh-same-mode-sandbox-noop/index.mjs

Test

Unit tests require only Node.js:

npm test

Integration tests run against an installed DSH tree:

DSH_INSTALL_DIR=/path/to/npx/cache/package npm run test:integration
