## Features

Desktop

Bring the official DeepSeek Harness local Web UI to a native desktop application. The app starts and manages the local Harness service, integrates the system tray and desktop window, and requires no Node.js installation or command-line setup.

Mobile Remote Control

Connect to Desktop from iOS and Android to start tasks, monitor Agent progress, and send follow-ups from your phone.

Plugin Marketplace

Harness follows an “everything is a plugin” architecture. The desktop marketplace will make it easy to discover, install, update, and manage plugins for models, tools, interfaces, and workflows.

Channels

Connect WeChat, Feishu, Discord, WhatsApp, and other IM channels to start tasks, receive progress updates, and continue conversations from the apps you already use.

## Plugin Ecosystem DeepSeek Harness is built on [Cordis](https://github.com/cordiverse/cordis) and follows an “everything is a plugin” architecture. Core capabilities such as model adapters, the tool registry, the session log, and the Agent Loop participate in the runtime as plugins, so they can be composed or replaced through configuration. External plugins can also join a runtime through profiles and bundles. See the official [architecture overview](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/blob/master/docs/architecture.md) and [plugin management documentation](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/blob/master/apps/cli/reference/README.md#plugin-management). We want Desktop to become more than a standalone desktop wrapper: it should serve as a desktop entry point into the DeepSeek Harness plugin ecosystem. We plan to reorganize the desktop capabilities around the official plugin model so service management, system integrations, and the plugin marketplace can follow the same composition model as Harness. > **Coming soon:** Desktop is not currently distributed as a DeepSeek Harness plugin. This plugin integration is still in development. ## Relationship to the Official Project This project is built on [deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness). The core capabilities, plugin system, and Web UI come from the official DeepSeek Harness project. This project primarily provides: - Desktop application packaging - Local service lifecycle management - Desktop window and system tray integration - macOS and Windows installer builds and releases - Interface adaptations for desktop environments If you prefer to run Harness from the command line or contribute to its core functionality, refer to the official repository first. ## Development The desktop application is located in: ```text apps/desktop ``` Install the dependencies and start the desktop application: ```sh pnpm install pnpm run dev:desktop ``` ## Community Choose whichever platform you prefer to discuss usage, plugin development, and project updates.
