Hana Research reader with PDF annotations and structured literature notes

[!IMPORTANT] 0.5.0-beta.1 targets the DeepSeek Harness developer preview. The full workflow has been validated on Windows; automated CI covers Ubuntu/Windows with Node.js 22 and 24.

What it does

Hana Research keeps literature discovery, PDFs, notes, screening decisions, and evidence exports in one traceable workspace:

  1. Search OpenAlex, Crossref, arXiv, and PubMed, or upload a local PDF.
  2. Create a project for each research question so papers, tasks, and notes have a clear home.
  3. Read in a three-pane PDF workspace where annotations and researcher interpretations remain linked to a page.
  4. Expand systematic-review tools only when needed: two-stage screening, PRISMA, structured coding, risk of bias, and GRADE.
  5. Export notes, evidence matrices, citations, and annotated PDFs, or hand the current structured context to a Harness agent.

Capability map

StageCapabilities
DiscoveryFour-source search, AI interpretation, saved searches, new-result alerts, journal monitoring
OrganizationProject libraries, paper roles, reading status, priorities, tasks, cross-paper relations
ReadingOutline/thumbnails/search, colored annotations, page-linked excerpts, reading progress, structured summaries
Systematic reviewInclusion/exclusion criteria, title/abstract and full-text screening, dual review, conflict resolution, PRISMA 2020
Evidence synthesisCustom extraction fields, RoB 2 / ROBINS-I, GRADE, evidence matrices, argument links
Export and agent workMarkdown, DOCX, PDF, CSV, XLSX, BibTeX, RIS, plus 20 Harness agent tools

The systematic-review modules use progressive disclosure. You can skip them when you only need a paper library, reader, and notes.

Install

Install DeepSeek Harness first, then pin the plugin to the published tag:

dsh plugin --profile web add github:zhoupengyun572-cell/dsh-hana-research#v0.5.0-beta.1

Restart Harness after installation. The packaged dsh.bundle activates Hana Research in the web profile without manual configuration edits.

The same package is available from the GitHub Release. SHA-256:

437495d420fdff5268d8fb5431a06b8f7afcb7702ae4aa7133531f6bd9b2a8e7

Update or remove it with:

dsh plugin --profile web update dsh-hana-research
dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-hana-research

Removing the package does not delete the research database.

Data and security

  • Data stays under $DSH_HOME/plugin-data/hana-research/: SQLite research.db, PDFs, translations, and project-note files.
  • The current database is schema v22. Migrations preserve a snapshot when required.
  • A new installation starts empty; author projects and demonstration papers are never seeded by default.
  • Agent write tools require user confirmation and remain subject to Harness approval and local audit records.
  • Network destinations, PDF download restrictions, and remaining dependency risks are documented in SECURITY.md.

Compatibility and limitations

  • Node.js >=22.13.0; Harness baseline @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools 0.1.0-rc.13, with public CI against 0.1.1-rc.2.
  • Windows has completed the install/read/annotate/export/update/remove workflow. Ubuntu currently has automated CI coverage but no full GUI acceptance pass.
  • The UI is currently Simplified Chinese-first.
  • DeepSeek Harness remains a developer preview, so compatibility across every preview build is not guaranteed.

Documentation

Development

npm ci
node scripts/run-tests.mjs

cd web
npm ci
node --test tests/*.test.mjs
npm run build

The current baseline is 167/167 root tests and 13/13 reader-editor tests. CI also verifies the release-package allowlist and size budget.
