DSH Recap

Pick up where you left off. A short recap of what you are working on, what is done, and what comes next — right inside DeepSeek Harness.

A small reminder, right where you work

Returning to a long conversation should not mean rereading every message. Run /recap to get a brief summary of the current task and its progress.

Illustrative demo with fictional content.

• On demand or while idle. Request a recap yourself, or let it appear after three minutes without activity in the visible session.
• Brief, with room to expand. About 160 characters by default, with a three-line preview and an expand control for longer results.
• Your choice of model. Follow the conversation model or select another configured model to control cost.
• Keep working. Generation runs in the background. Repeated requests share work; a failure preserves the previous recap and offers a retry.

Quick start

1. Install from GitHub

Open Plugins in the Harness sidebar, click Add plugin, and paste this URL into the package name or address field:

https://github.com/lolipop-1x1/dsh-recap

Click Install. If build-script approval is requested, review the source and listed scripts, then allow them and retry; GitHub installation builds the plugin from source.

After installation, restart Harness if prompted, then refresh the browser. If another plugin already owns /recap, disable that plugin first.

2. Get your first recap

Open a conversation with some work in it and send:

/recap

To choose a model or adjust automatic recaps, send /recap settings or open Settings → Recap. Changes save automatically.

Commands

The submitted command clears immediately while generation continues. A new draft you type is left alone. Manual recaps appear at their command position; opening settings or checking status does not move them.

Make it yours

Open /recap settings to adjust triggers without leaving the conversation. Edits save automatically.

Illustrated settings overview; defaults and generation budgets are listed below.

These budgets limit input material and output; they are not a fixed per-request charge. Advanced options are collapsed in settings. See the configuration reference for all fields and legacy compatibility.

Opening or switching sessions does not immediately generate a recap. Keyboard, pointer and scroll activity reset the idle timer; generation waits until the main agent is idle. Completed recaps stay visible when the page loses focus. Continuing the conversation, refreshing or closing the page hides them. Refreshing one tab does not clear another tab's recap.

Live checks have covered model generation, direct settings dialogs, timeout/retry and per-tab refresh behavior. Fresh-profile installation, long-running behavior and other providers are not fully verified. Detailed project documentation is currently in Chinese.
