dsh-graphlint
DeepSeek Harness plugin bundle for graphlint —
dead-code detection for AI-generated codebases.
Installing this bundle gives every agent in the profile three tools
(graphlint_query, graphlint_build, graphlint_config) plus a graphlint
skill describing when and how to use them.
Requirements
- Node.js >= 20.
- A DeepSeek Harness profile (
dsh plugin initializes one on first use).
- The graphlint CLI on
PATH (pip install graphlint) or inside the project's
virtualenv (env/, .venv/, venv/ are probed automatically).
Install
Install the published bundle into a DeepSeek Harness profile:
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-graphlint
# or via the graphlint CLI (requires dsh on PATH):
graphlint install dsh --profile web
Then restart the profile (and refresh the browser page). The bundle's patch
layer inserts the plugin row at the profile root; you can address it by id
dsh-graphlint in your own cordis.patch.yml (e.g. to disable it per profile).
Development / repository install (linking a local checkout):
# 1. Clone the repository and build the bundle
git clone https://github.com/AngelosZou/graphlint.git
cd graphlint/integrations/dsh
npm install
npm run build
# 2. Link the bundle into a profile (run from the repository root)
cd ..
dsh plugin --profile web add link:./integrations/dsh
# 3. Restart dsh web
Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|
graphlint_query | Query the dependency graph for dead code, circular refs, unused imports, and other warnings. Fast incremental mode; JSON result. Common filters: warn_types, graph_id, exclude_clean, include_tests, public_as_entry. |
graphlint_build | Full or incremental index rebuild as a background job (poll with job_output). |
graphlint_config | show / get / set entries in the project's .graphlint/config.json, plus add-entry-rule / remove-entry-rule / add-exclude / remove-exclude for custom entry rules and excludes. |
The graphlint skill leads with these tools (they run inside the session working
directory and return structured results); the canonical CLI guidance follows as
reference.
root_dir restriction
Every tool accepts an optional root_dir. It must stay inside the session
working directory (the default) — a hard guard rejects anything else with a
clear error. Scanning a high-level root (such as a user home directory) makes
graphlint build a huge first-time index and can block for many minutes.
Optional Secondary working directories (dsh-multi-folder)
When the dsh-multi-folder
plugin is installed and the user has configured secondary working directories
for the session, those directories automatically become valid root_dir
values for all three tools: the analysis root is accepted inside any configured
secondary directory, graphlint runs with that directory as its working
directory, and the index lands in its .graphlint/. A relative root_dir
still resolves against the primary session workspace.
This compatibility is automatic and optional. Each tool probes
ctx.get('multiFolder') at call time and nothing else changes:
- multi-folder absent, unconfigured, incompatible, or throwing → the plugin
behaves exactly as if it did not exist (the guard falls back to the session
working directory, and the refusal message keeps its original wording);
- multi-folder present → a refusal still names the configured secondary
directories and the
/multi-folder command that adds one, so the model
learns the valid roots instead of retrying blindly.
Development
cd integrations/dsh
npm install # first time only; afterwards npm ci
npm run build # tsc → lib/
npm test # node --test lib/test/
The test suite covers the pure logic layers (root guard, argv construction,
JSON parsing), the optional multi-folder probe and its end-to-end tool wiring
(root resolution and spawned CLI cwd, with and without the peer plugin), plus
manifest/patch contract checks. A committed package-lock.json is required (CI
runs npm ci).
