Real TODO state
See the completed count and up to three tasks, with active and pending tasks first. Native todo/write events provide state. A new turn clears the prior list; no list this turn does not mean earlier work is complete.

Your DeepSeek Harness
history, with context.
TODO progress and the latest assistant reply, inside your DSH history sidebar.
Check what is done and read the last saved answer before you reopen a conversation. Each history card uses that session's own task events and committed messages.

Captured in a real DSH session using the official DeepSeek API. Read the API verification.
More context in every history card.
Keep session navigation in the sidebar. Read task progress and the latest saved answer without opening each conversation.
The latest committed answer
Read a two-line saved reply. Earlier reply identifies text from a prior turn. Empty or tool-only messages preserve useful text. Generating, stopped, and failed states describe the current turn; interrupted output, reasoning, and tool results stay out.
Find and navigate sessions
Search combines cached titles and replies with DSH's official content search. Remote failure keeps local matches, marks results incomplete, and offers Retry search. Result limits are explicit. Remote-only matches and scroll survive navigation. Use Up, Down, Home, End, and Enter.
Keep the DSH shell
Official projection and slot APIs keep the native shell, collapse, and mobile drawer. Workspaces & archives opens the workspace browser. History cards restores your search, scroll, and focused session.
The sidebar follows DSH’s language setting: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish. The Traditional Chinese host pack covers 17 namespaces and 1829 keys; other namespaces may fall back to Simplified Chinese.
Watch the real API run.
The video and snapshot come from the same DSH run. The model uses the native TODO tool and saves its own answer.
13.8-second recording. The sidebar shows 2 of 3 tasks complete and the actual saved reply. Watch the demo with a written walkthrough.
Evidence with the preview
The model reads generated demo order inputs, updates the TODO list, and returns an answer. The capture preserves the recorded bytes and elapsed time.
API response IDs, usage, tool-use IDs, and persisted messages are cross-checked. A second real API session and reload recovery are also verified.
The verification suite also has controlled adapters for debugging. Those results are separate from this live API demonstration.

This checkout builds DSH Sidebar History 0.2.3. The verified DSH target is DeepSeek Harness 0.2.2-rc.1, upstream commit fcc0ad462172522aaf5c93a7b2e01f6b9f0b0159.
DSH APIs are pre-stable. Check compatibility before changing the supported version. Node.js 24.9.0 or later is required by the package.

Does this plugin modify DeepSeek Harness source?
No. It is an external plugin. The bundle patch registers the session projection, and the client export supplies the browser module through official DSH APIs.
Does the sidebar open every historical agent?
No. Cards read bounded projections on demand, with loading and failure states. Projection v2 replays old durable logs without activating historical Agents. The client renders the viewport plus overscan and uses the existing session list. Archived sessions stay hidden.
Where do the task and reply previews come from?
Task state comes from todo/write. A new turn/start clears the previous turn's tasks. Reply previews use committed assistant/message text. Loading, failure, empty, and non-text states remain explicit.
How does the Markdown preview work?
The read-only preview uses DSH’s GFM grammar for bold, emphasis, strikethrough, and code. Lists and tables become compact text; links show labels and images show alt text. It does not navigate, fetch remote images, or interpret raw HTML. Accessible card descriptions include task counts, each task state, reply text, and turn context.
How is the plugin verified?
The repository contains unit, package, controlled-browser, live API, and media checks. The pre-commit verifier checks the staged tree and requires a fresh real API E2E run. Read the verification commands and verification report.
