bundle

dsh-desktop-shell

The plugin bundle of the dsh desktop profile: one cordis row (desktop-shell) over the web surface that spawns the native Tauri render client on the served loopback URL.

What it does

The bundle patch (cordis.patch.yml) inserts a single row into the composed tree. The plugin (lib/index.js):

• injects the webServer service and waits for the loader to settle (the port is the real OS-assigned one only after the bind);
• resolves the native client binary: config.bin → DSH_DESKTOP_BIN → $DSH_HOME/bin/dsh-desktop-shell → dsh-desktop-shell on PATH → ~/.local/bin/dsh-desktop-shell;
• spawns dsh-desktop-shell <url> and watches it:
  • exit 0 (window closed) → requests harness shutdown via ctx.appExit;
  • exit 11 (one-click update applied) → boots a fresh dsh --profile desktop (detached), then shuts the old harness down;
  • other non-zero exit or missing binary → the web surface keeps serving (degrades to browser use) with a printed hint.

The browser half (lib/client.js) draws the desktop experience onto the web surface: the custom window title bar (the shell window is frameless), the right-hand explorer panel (Files/Preview tabs over the native fs commands), and the "dsh-desktop" settings section (tray, notifications, one-click updates, geometry, installation paths).

Bundle contract

This is a standard dsh bundle package: the manifest declares dsh.bundle.patch, and the profile composes it as a patch layer over dsh-base + dsh-web-app exactly like @deepseek-ai/dsh-headless. It needs no pnpm installation: the profile's install.sh copies this directory into $DSH_HOME/profiles/desktop/packages/ and links it into the profile's node_modules.
