dsh-show-media

Show a local image or short video in the current DeepSeek Harness conversation card.

简体中文 · MIT · Security

Community plugin for DeepSeek Harness. Not an official DeepSeek AI product.

Conversation markdown still will not render a local file:// or Windows path. Official read_image remains the model-vision path. This plugin is for the human sitting at the card.

Install

From a clone (no build step — lib/ is the source):

dsh plugin --profile desktop add github:NecromanAlbert/dsh-show-media

Or a local checkout:

dsh plugin --profile desktop add /path/to/dsh-show-media

Restart the Desktop GUI after install. Then ask the agent to show a local file.

Listed on awesome-dsh-plugin once the catalog PR merges. npm is optional and not required for listing.

What it does

Tool	dsh_show_media · one argument file_path
Images	PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF
Videos	MP4, WebM, MOV, M4V, MKV · 64MiB cap
Display	original file bytes, not the official attachment downsample
Preview	click the image (or the video frame) · Esc / backdrop / × closes
Scope	this conversation card only · does not occupy shell.overlay

Relative paths resolve against the session workspace.

{ "file_path": "C:\\path\\to\\photo.webp" }

What this is not

• Not a replacement for read_image.
• Not a process-wide floating overlay.
• Not a second gallery. It only customizes the dsh_show_media tool card.
