- dsh-ops is a plugin installed in the DeepSeek Harness (DSH) app. According to the original text, it adds new file operation tools and hides some official tools to reduce tokens, which are the processing units AI uses when it works.
- The original text says that on Windows it provides ops_bash, which behaves like DSH's default bash, and that PowerShell can optionally be turned off. This is a feature the development team described.
- Installation can be done with an npx command in a terminal or from the plugin marketplace in the DSH app. You must choose a profile among desktop, web, and TUI, and the desktop profile must use the CLI included in the app.
- The token reduction figures are results the development team measured with its own benchmark. The README chart shows scores and costs by harness for the deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017 model, but it says the full benchmark will be published in a later update.
O: This is useful for developers who hand file tasks to AI in the DSH app and are worried about rising token usage, when they want to review only the installation plan with --dry-run before installing.
X: The token savings figures and performance comparisons are results the development team measured with its own benchmarks. The full benchmark will be published later, so check it before drawing conclusions.
