DeepSeek Harness desktop client leaks: signed by DeepSeek, not yet announced
机器之心 · wechat · 2026-09-25
An unannounced desktop client for DeepSeek Harness has surfaced in the community and is confirmed working. Sign in with a DeepSeek account or API key, pick a local workspace folder, and hand tasks to the Agent like a normal desktop AI app.
- Four working modes: Standard, PTC (write code to batch-call tools), Minimal (terminal-only), and Creative (self-authored plugins) — built on the "Everything is a Plugin" architecture.
- Six official plugins ship built-in: Agent teams (multi-agent collab, experimental), voice input via SenseVoice (experimental), terminal, agent loop, subagents, and web search.
- Community verified on GitHub: the app is signed with the Apple developer certificate of Hangzhou DeepSeek AI and notarized, distributed on the nightly channel — an official candidate build, but not yet the announced stable release.
- Far lower friction than the previous Node.js/npx-based WebUI; no Linux support yet.
