What is DeepSeek Harness?

DeepSeek Harness (dsh) is DeepSeek's official, open-source agent runtime. Unlike a traditional terminal agent, it runs as a local web app in your browser: you describe a task, and it plans the work, edits code, and runs commands right there in the page.

Vibe Island is an independent notch companion for DeepSeek Harness, not a DeepSeek product. It is a separate integration from the CodeWhale / DeepSeek TUI page — a different, terminal-based tool from a different developer. Install DeepSeek Harness, launch Vibe Island once, and the integration configures itself.

Real-time session monitoring

DeepSeek Harness sessions appear in the notch the moment they start. Watch the status change as the agent works and finishes a turn. When several agents run in parallel, each session card is tagged so you can tell them apart at a glance.

Approve tools from the notch

When DeepSeek Harness asks to run a tool, the notch panel expands with Allow and Deny buttons. Approve or reject in place — no need to switch back to the browser tab first. DeepSeek Harness's own interface keeps working the whole time; whichever side answers first wins, and the other side simply collapses.

Answer questions without leaving the notch

When DeepSeek Harness needs a decision, the question and its options appear right in the notch. Answer from there or from the browser tab — either way, the session continues the moment you respond.

Jump to the exact browser tab

Click a DeepSeek Harness session in the notch and Vibe Island switches straight to the exact browser tab it's running in — no hunting through a stack of open tabs to find the right one.

Works over SSH Remote too

Running DeepSeek Harness on a remote server? Sessions still show up on your notch, and clicking a card brings you back to the right SSH terminal.

Zero config setup

Vibe Island auto-configures DeepSeek Harness on first launch. No manual editing, no commands to run — the integration installs itself. Existing settings are preserved — nothing is overwritten.

Run alongside other agents

Mix DeepSeek Harness with Claude Code, Codex CLI, ZCode, Gemini CLI, Antigravity CLI, Cursor Agent, Trae, OpenCode, MiMoCode, Factory Droid, Devin, Qoder, QoderWork, Qwen, QwenWork, Grok Build, Kimi Code, DeepSeek, Mistral Vibe, Copilot, CodeBuddy, WorkBuddy, Kiro, Hermes, Amp, Pi Agent, Oh My Pi, and Gajae Code. Every session appears in the same notch panel, so you can run multiple agents in parallel and monitor them at a glance.

Frequently asked questions

Is DeepSeek Harness the same as the DeepSeek CLI Vibe Island already supports?

No. Vibe Island's CodeWhale / DeepSeek page covers a separate, terminal-based, third-party tool. DeepSeek Harness (dsh) is DeepSeek's own official, browser-based agent runtime, tracked as its own integration.

Can I approve tools and answer questions from either side?

Yes. DeepSeek Harness's own browser interface keeps working the whole time you use Vibe Island. Whichever side you answer from wins, and the other side automatically collapses.
