v0.1.0
cbbc0ee

First desktop build of the DeepSeek Harness. Unofficial and not affiliated with DeepSeek.

The installer carries its own Node 24.19.0 runtime and a pre-installed @deepseek-ai/dsh@0.1.0-rc.6, so nothing needs to be installed first. The app runs dsh web as a child process and loads its UI, which means every Harness feature behaves exactly as it does from the CLI. Your sessions and configuration live in ~/.dsh, shared with the CLI if you already use it.

No API credentials are bundled. On first run the Harness asks for a provider key, exactly as the CLI does.

Downloads

Platform File
macOS (Apple Silicon) …-arm64.dmg
macOS (Intel) …-x64.dmg
Windows x64 …-x64-setup.exe
Linux x64 …-x86_64.AppImage or …-amd64.deb

Before the first launch

These builds carry no developer certificate, so both desktop OSes will stop them.

macOS — the app is ad-hoc signed but not notarized. Copy it to Applications, then clear the download quarantine before you first try to open it, because macOS caches its verdict:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/DeepSeek Harness Desktop.app"

Windows — SmartScreen shows Windows protected your PC. Choose More info → Run anyway.

Known limitations

  • No developer certificate or notarization, hence the warnings above.
  • No auto-update. Help → Desktop Releases opens this page.
  • The upstream Harness is still a developer preview, so expect breaking changes.
  • One backend per machine: launching again focuses the existing window.

How these builds were checked

The Linux and Windows installers are installed and launched on a clean runner in
the same workflow that produced them, and the release is blocked unless the
bundled Node starts the bundled Harness and the reported URL serves the web UI.
Both macOS builds were verified by hand: valid signature, correct architecture,
and a real launch of the app from the mounted disk image.
