dsh-chrome-app-launcher

dsh-chrome-app-launcher

A DeepSeek Harness plugin that creates a Windows desktop shortcut which launches dsh web in a Chrome app-mode window (no address bar / no tabs).

What it does

On every boot (Windows only), the plugin:

1. Writes a small launcher .bat into %LOCALAPPDATA%\dsh-chrome-app-launcher\launch-dsh.bat
2. Creates a Desktop shortcut DeepSeek Harness.lnk pointing at it

Double-clicking the shortcut:

• auto-detects Chrome (registry App Paths first, then common paths, then Edge as fallback)
• starts dsh web --no-open in the background
• waits for the port to become ready
• opens the Web GUI in a Chrome app-mode window (with a fresh --user-data-dir so it is a real standalone app window even when Chrome is already running)
• closing that terminal window stops the service

Configuration

Configure via settings.yaml (or the bundle patch):

chrome-app-launcher:
  shortcutName: DeepSeek Harness   # shortcut label
  port: 3080                       # dsh web port

Platform

Windows only (win32). On other platforms the plugin is a no-op.
