What is dsh-mcp-panel?
The MCP management console for the official DeepSeek Harness MCP client — add, edit, remove, and trial-call MCP servers from a settings page, with honest status, health diagnostics, and safe, reversible profile writes.
Official client = bridge, this plugin = console: read status through the mcp/status seam, write only append-only, approval-gated profile patches.
Workflow overview: install → open panel → act. The examples below use the real command surface.
Compatibility
| Surface | Status |
|---|---|
| Harness | DeepSeek Harness dsh-v0.2.1-rc.2 (verified 2026-10-18): engines.dsh >=0.2.1-0 <0.3.0; the P0 compatibility paths have regression tests. |
| Node | ^22.19.0 || >=24.0.0 |
| Platforms | Web GUI (dual-face: host + browser) |
| Model | Any (the panel is read-only; only /mcp output is model-readable) |
What you get
dsh-mcp-panel is the experience layer on top of the official MCP client: a read-only runtime view plus safe, reversible profile writes.
/mcpcommand — one row per server: transport, target, tool count, connection status (from the upstream seam;unknownwhen unobserved), last error, reconnect count — model-readable, session-log reconstructable, five output languages./mcp <server> tools— model-visiblemcp__*tool names and descriptions./mcp <server> health— derived self-heal suggestions (ENOENT → missing dependency, ECONNREFUSED, timeouts, 401/403/404, DNS, rate limit, reconnect exhaustion…); exit code / stderr tail honestly labeled pending upstream support until the client exposes them./mcp <server> disable/enable— turn one server row off or back on without editing the profile patch by hand./mcp <server> probe— one Streamable HTTP connectivity probe for that server (background job)./mcp <server> call <tool> [json]— trial-call through the official tool pipeline (ctx.tools.execute()); pre-execute permission policy, approval, guards, and post-execute all apply.- Settings → Plugins → MCP tab — status cards with badges, diagnostics, and probes, plus the server CRUD and the tool trial console.
- Server CRUD — add/edit/remove forms →
insertfor add and id-targeted overrides (- id:+name:+disabled:/config:) for edit/remove → clipboard copy or approval-gated write with automatic backups and loader re-verification. - Resources browse — read-only resource listing, template listing, and URI reads through the official
list_mcp_resources/list_mcp_resource_templates/read_mcp_resourcetools (bridged by the shipped@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-resourcesservice); results are shown in the tab only, never in model context. - Recommended directory — a built-in community MCP server catalog (filesystem, git, github, fetch, playwright, …) served in the snapshot;
catalogEntriesappends/overrides entries, andcatalogToConfigInputturns one into a one-click add. - Config import/export —
exportConfigs()serializes the server rows to a versioned JSON document (a!!jsrow exports asnullwith a reason), andimportPreview()parses an export back into per-serveraddpatch fragments for review. - Tool trial console — server →
mcp__*tool → JSON args → canonical JSON result + rendered content; capped bytrialMaxResultChars; panel-only, never model context.
Architecture: official client = bridge, this plugin = console
@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client is the only bridge: one plugin instance per MCP server, configured as a hand-written cordis.yml row, connecting the transport, syncing tools, and registering mcp__<server>__<tool> names. This plugin never replaces it — it is the experience layer on top:
┌────────────────────────────────────────────┐
profile │ cordis.yml / cordis.patch.yml │
composition │ - id: mcp-github │
(one row per │ name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client' │

The console reads the client through its proposed mcp/status observability seam (not yet shipped upstream; feature-detected) (event + mcpStatus query service), the tool registry, and the loader; it writes only the profile's patch layer — append-only, approval-gated, always backed up. Transport, OAuth, and protocol stay untouched.
Console vs. hand-written cordis.yml
| Hand-written cordis.yml | dsh-mcp-panel console | |
|---|---|---|
| Add a server | Edit YAML, mind indent/quoting | Form → patch fragment → copy or write (approval + auto backup) |
| Edit a server | Edit YAML, restart/hot-reload | Form pre-filled from the live row; unchanged secrets keep their raw values host-side |
| Remove a server | Delete the row | - id: + disabled: true override (the patch vocabulary has no remove) — re-enableable anytime |
| See status | Read logs | Badges + reconnects + last error, live from the mcp/status seam |
| Try a tool | Ask the model to call it | Trial console → official ctx.tools.execute() pipeline (permission & approval stay in force) |
| Diagnose failures | Grep logs | /mcp <server> health with derived self-heal suggestions |
| Mistakes | Manual revert | Every write is append-only and leaves a timestamped backup |
The console's output IS cordis.patch.yml vocabulary — the same lines you would write by hand, generated, previewed, and applied safely.
Quick start
dsh plugin --profile web add github:PerryLink/dsh-mcp-panel
# 1. install the bundle into your profile
dsh plugin --profile web add github:PerryLink/dsh-mcp-panel
# or from npm (published releases)
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-mcp-panel
# 2. restart and verify the row
dsh --profile web --dump-config | grep -A3 'id: mcp-panel'
Then open Settings → Plugins → MCP, or run:
/mcp
/mcp everything tools
/mcp everything health
/mcp everything call echo '{"message": "hi"}'
Examples
These are the plugin's real entry points; install once, then call one.

Resources & Prompts
Resources ARE bridged upstream: the base bundle mounts @deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-resources, the official client registers each connection's resource provider into ctx.mcpResources, and that package owns the three shared tools (list_mcp_resources, list_mcp_resource_templates, read_mcp_resource). The console feature-detects the service and the registered tools, and offers a read-only Resources browser (list / templates / URI read) on every server card — each call runs through the OFFICIAL tool pipeline, and results never enter model context.
MCP prompt templates and resource subscriptions remain deferred upstream; the capabilities board marks Prompts pending upstream support.
Permissions & data
- Permissions: the
dshWorkshopmanifest declaresnetwork:outboundandnative-code:none. - Data: the panel is read-only; it writes only append-only
cordis.patch.ymlfragments (approval-gated, backup-first). URL query credentials, userinfo passwords, header values, bearer tokens, and JWTs are redacted before rendering; configuredheadersnever enter any snapshot, and env/header values never leave the host (the editor sees keys only).
Security boundaries
- The bridge stays the bridge. No transport, OAuth, or protocol changes; one mcp-client row per server, exactly as hand-written.
- No fake status. Connection fields without upstream observations read
unknown/—withstatusSource: 'derived'; exit codes and stderr tails are never invented. - Writes are append-only, approval-gated, and backed up. The console never rewrites
cordis.patch.yml; it appends generated operations, keeps the newestbackupCountbackups, and re-verifies every write against the loader's re-applied state before reporting success (a skipped patch never reads as success). - No prompt injection. The panel registers no prompt sections; its only model-facing text is the two tool/command descriptions.
Known limitations
- Prompt templates & resource subscriptions are pending upstream support — the official client bridges tools and resources, but not prompts or subscriptions.
- Exit codes / stderr tails are labeled pending upstream support until the client exposes them.
- Read-only panel — the console never fakes a connection state; unobservable fields read
unknown/-1/—. - Writes are verified, not guaranteed — the console re-verifies each write against the loader's re-applied state and fails honestly when the loader did not apply it (e.g. a row inserted by
$DSH_HOME/cordis.patch.yml, which a profile-layer patch cannot reach).
Development
pnpm run typecheck && pnpm run typecheck:ci && pnpm test && pnpm run build && pnpm run verify:self-contained && pnpm run verify:artifacts && pnpm pack
scripts/verify-headless.mjs boots the real web profile and prints the exact /mcp output. Releases: node scripts/release.mjs <x.y.z> runs the full gate, commits, and tags v<x.y.z> locally (never pushes).
