# dsh-pref-kit is DEPRECATED

- **Deprecation date:** 2026-09-10
- **Final version:** v0.5.1
- **Status:** retired; no further maintenance, issues, or releases.

## Why

DSH 0.1.5-rc.1 covers the reasons this plugin existed:

- long-session opening/resume/continuation performance and memory usage were optimized upstream;
- an official right sidebar, document previews, trajectory view and plugin row/panel management now ship in the Web profile;
- the remaining stream-coalescing micro-optimization no longer justifies a separate plugin in the composition.

## Migration / removal

```bash
dsh plugin --profile <name> remove dsh-pref-kit
# restart dsh afterwards
```

After removal, the loader reconciles `dsh.profile.bundles`; any settings document section left behind is inert and can be deleted manually if desired.

## Rollback

The source is retained in this repository at v0.5.1. Installing it again is possible but unsupported:

```bash
dsh plugin --profile <name> add "file:<path-to-this-checkout>"
```
