[Plugin] dsh-locale-es-419: Latin American Spanish (Español Latinoamérica) for DeepSeek Harness

Hi everyone! 👋

To help the Spanish-speaking community across Latin America (over 400M+ native speakers) use DeepSeek Harness in their own language, I've created and published dsh-locale-es-419 — an open-source community language pack plugin that registers Latin American Spanish (es-419) in the settings and interface.

🔗 GitHub Repository: https://github.com/Dreftian/dsh-locale-es-419
🏷️ Topic: dsh-plugin

What this brings to DeepSeek Harness

• Settings integration: Registers Español (Latinoamérica) directly in Settings → General → Language (Configuración → General → Idioma).
• Latin American terminology: Uses regional standards (archivo, computadora, configuración, guardar, cancelar, detener, etc.).
• Durable persistence: Selected preference is saved across sessions in locale.preference in cordis.patch.yml.
• Automatic browser detection: Matches browsers with es-419, es-MX, es-CO, es-AR, etc.
• Resilient fallback: Any keys not yet translated gracefully fall back to English (en) without breaking the UI.
• 58 translated namespaces: Covers settings, chat, workspace, shortcuts, sidebar, permissions, and tools.

Community Collaboration

The dictionaries live in locale/es-419/*.json. If you'd like to help refine translations or add new strings as DSH evolves, PRs and feedback are very welcome!

Enjoy, and hope this helps the Latin American developer community get the most out of DeepSeek Harness! 🚀

Related proposal, may matter for how this one ships: make the UI locale an ordered preference list (e.g. ru → en → zh) instead of a single choice, so a partly translated UI falls back to a language the user actually reads rather than to untranslated islands and Chinese source keys. It also keeps the shipped-locale set from being a closed enum.
