dsh-web-control 0.1.0

dsh-web-control 0.1.0

Manage a LAN or Tailscale reachable dsh web instance from inside DSH.

dsh web listens on loopback by default, so a phone or a second machine cannot open it.
This plugin gives you a Settings → Web access panel that binds it to a real address
(Tailscale, LAN, or loopback), starts and stops it, and hands you the token URL.

Install

dsh plugin --profile desktop add dsh-web-control-0.1.0.tgz

Then restart DSH and open Settings → Web access.

What it does

• Detects usable addresses: Tailscale (Tailscale ip -4), LAN (ipconfig getifaddr en0), loopback
• Start / stop / restart, with the running state and elapsed time shown in the panel
• Copies the full ?token= URL; the token is regenerated on every start
• Tail of the child's log, viewable from the panel
• Persists bindHost / port / autoStart in ~/.dsh-web-control/config.json
• Two agent tools: dsh_web_control and dsh_web_config

Notes

• --host must be a concrete IPv4 literal; dsh rejects 0.0.0.0. The plugin only offers real addresses.
• Binding a non-loopback address lets anyone who can reach it — and holds the token — use this machine's
  DSH with full file and command access. Only enable it on a network you trust, and stop it when done.
• The host half has no runtime dependencies; Node 24.

Tests: 16 unit tests plus an acceptance harness that spawns a real dsh web.
