dsh-audio-visualizer
English | 简体中文
System-audio driven UI visualizer for DeepSeek Harness (dsh web and DSH Desktop).
- Spectrum chip — a draggable 118×24 floating chip drawing a 48-band rainbow spectrum that rides the system audio output in real time.
- Frame glow — the window gets a bass-driven inset glow (10–56 px spread, hue shifts with the low end).
- Memory-only FFT — audio is analysed with a Web Audio
AnalyserNode and never leaves the process: nothing is recorded, stored, or uploaded.
- Click the chip to toggle. It remembers where you put it.
How it works
getDisplayMedia({ audio }) → drop the placeholder video track → AnalyserNode (fftSize 512, smoothing 0.5) → log-spaced 48-band mapping over the FFT bins → dynamic peak gain → canvas.
On DSH Desktop the Electron main process answers getDisplayMedia with audio: 'loopback' for every renderer session, so the visualizer starts with the app — no dialog, no clicks. That requires a one-time local patch (see below).
Install
dsh web
dsh plugin --profile web add git+https://github.com/caesarjue/dsh-audio-visualizer
Then click the chip and pick Entire screen + check Share system audio in the picker. The browser security model requires this manual opt-in every time; macOS Chrome/Chromium 141+ only.
DSH Desktop
dsh plugin --profile desktop add git+https://github.com/caesarjue/dsh-audio-visualizer
Plus a one-time local patch — the DSH Desktop Electron main process must answer getDisplayMedia with system-audio loopback. The patch script is bundled in patch/:
./patch/install-patch.sh # backs up the app, patches main.js, re-signs, guides the macOS permission
See patch/README.md for the details (and rollback). After the patch the visualizer starts with the app, zero interaction.
Requirements
- macOS 14.2+ (system-audio loopback via Core Audio taps); macOS permissions: Screen Recording + Audio Capture (grant in System Settings, then restart the app once)
- Chrome/Chromium 141+ for the web version
- DSH Desktop 2.0.5+ (Electron 43) tested; DSH web tested on dsh 0.1.5
