Mimir

The research-lifecycle copilot inside DeepSeek Harness:
literature · experiments & remote GPUs · figures · LaTeX writing → compile → preview · group-meeting decks — one workbench, driven by your agent.

Mimir is a single npm package (dsh-mimir) that plugs into dsh and gives you:

• Eight-view web workbench (sidebar toggle → overlay, dark/light, 中/EN): Overview pipeline & stats · Paper Overleaf-style LaTeX studio (edit → compile → PDF preview, one-click AI fix) · Library arXiv + web search, AI relevance scoring, fullscreen PDF reader · Experiments metric charts, one-click paper figures · Figures upload/organize/insert into the paper · Meetings one-click group-meeting PPT (real paper figures + optional AI illustrations) · Servers GPU fleet probes + remote jobs · Ledger humanized research journal — idea evolution auto-captured into a worktree, six-perspective digest capsules, one-click progress report
• Agent tools & slash commands: /research-idea /research-plan /research-review /paper-write /paper-compile, plus arxiv_search, web_search, wiki_note, figure_save, latex_compile, meeting_deck
• Eleven bundled research skills (literature review, novelty check, experiment planning, citation audit, bilingual de-AI polish, rebuttal…) that teach the agent the workflow — no setup needed

Prerequisites: Node.js ≥ 22, the dsh CLI (npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh), and a DEEPSEEK_API_KEY for agent sessions.

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-mimir@latest   # installs and self-activates
dsh web                                          # then open http://127.0.0.1:3080

Got an old version (e.g. 0.11.x/0.12.x)? dsh's plugin store uses pnpm, which holds back freshly published releases by default. Pin the exact version instead: dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-mimir && dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-mimir@0.14.1

Click Mimir in the sidebar footer. The wiki persists at ~/.dsh/storages/research_wiki.json; artifacts land under ./.research.

Optional capabilities:

• Paper compilation — install a LaTeX engine (brew install tectonic is easiest), or set latex.engine to a binary path
• Web search — the sxng CLI ships with the package; give it a SearXNG server with one command (Docker-free, local venv):

  bash scripts/setup-web-search.sh

• Zotero — set zotero.apiKey / zotero.userId in the plugin config (keys at zotero.org/settings/keys)

All keys are optional; set them in the profile's cordis.patch.yml (full commented example: examples/mimir-agent/cordis.yml).

• Plugin not found — dsh resolves plugin names from the profile directory; install with dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-mimir@latest, not from your cwd.
• LaTeX engine not found — brew install tectonic, or point latex.engine at an absolute path. First tectonic compile downloads packages; raise latex.timeoutMs if it times out.
• arXiv fails — export HTTPS_PROXY before starting dsh when behind a proxy.
• Web search unavailable — run bash scripts/setup-web-search.sh (local SearXNG), or sxng init against your own instance, then restart dsh.
