⚡ dsh-mini - Tiny AI Agent for Everyone

🔥 What Is dsh-mini?

dsh-mini is a super small, portable AI coding assistant that runs right on your computer. It's like having a smart helper that can understand your commands and write code for you — all in one tiny file. No complicated setup, no heavy installations. Just download, click, and go.

This tool is built on the powerful DeepSeek Harness engine, but squeezed into a single file that's 7.6 MB — that's about 50 times smaller than similar tools. It works great on Windows, and it's even friendly with Android via Termux.

🎯 Who Is This For?

• You want an AI assistant that works offline-ish (after you connect to a model).
• You're tired of installing huge programs that slow down your computer.
• You want something portable — put it on a USB stick and use it anywhere.
• You're curious about AI-powered coding but don't know where to start.

📦 What's Inside?

• Portable Engine — The core of DeepSeek Harness, compressed to the max.
• Pi Shell — A friendly terminal interface that talks to the AI.
• Zero Runtime Dependencies — No extra software needed. It just runs.
• Single File — One file does everything. No folders, no clutter.

🔌 Connecting to AI Models

dsh-mini is the engine, but to get AI answers, you'll need to connect it to a model. Here's how:

1. Open the settings — Type settings in the terminal.
2. Choose your model — You can use DeepSeek or other compatible LLMs.
3. Enter your API key — If you have one from a provider.
4. Save and test — Type a simple question to see if it works.

Note: If you're just typing help and exploring locally, no connection is needed.

📱 Using dsh-mini on Android (Termux)

dsh-mini is Termux-friendly, meaning you can run it on your Android phone! Here's the short version:

1. Install Termux from F-Droid.
2. Open Termux and run: pkg install wget
3. Download the file: wget [your download link]
4. Run it with: ./dsh-mini

That's it. Your phone becomes a portable AI coding station.

🧰 Troubleshooting

If something doesn't work, try these common fixes:

Problem: The file won't open. Solution: Make sure you extracted the file (if it was a zip), and try running it as administrator.

Problem: Nothing happens when I type. Solution: Check your keyboard input. Some terminals need you to press Enter after typing.

Problem: I get a "missing DLL" error. Solution: Download the latest version from the link below. The file should be self-contained.

Problem: The AI isn't responding. Solution: Check your internet connection and API settings (if applicable).
