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$
\text{Images}	\text{PNG}, \text{JPEG}, \text{WebP}, \text{GIF}
\text{Videos}	\text{MP4}, \text{WebM}, \text{MOV}, \text{M4V}, \text{MKV} · 64\text{MiB} \text{cap}
\text{Display}	\text{original} \text{file} \text{bytes}, \text{not} \text{the} \text{official} \text{attachment} \text{downsample}
\text{Preview}	\text{click} \text{the} \text{image} (\text{or} \text{the} \text{video} \text{frame}) · \text{Esc} / \text{backdrop} / \times \text{closes}
\text{Scope}	\text{this} \text{conversation} \text{card} \text{only} · \text{does} \text{not} \text{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.
