dsh-plugin-education
An education toolkit for DeepSeek Harness agents: lesson-plan skeletons, quiz validation, rubrics, flashcards, and readability levels. The model authors the content; the plugin supplies structure and checks.
Compatibility
Tool schemas are validated against the @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools value-schema DSL at plugin load (checked against dsh-tools 0.1.0-rc.6 and 0.1.1-rc.2). Earlier releases used JSON-Schema required at the root of output.schema and closed nested objects without declared properties, which made the host abort the whole profile boot with unsupported JSON schema: schema.required is not supported by the value schema DSL and could reject the tool's own results. Current releases fix both; if an affected version left your DSH unable to start, remove the plugin from the profile (or upgrade) — no data is lost.
Install
dsh plugin --profile <profile> add dsh-plugin-education
Restart DSH. The edu_kit tool is registered host-wide.
Tool
| action | purpose |
|---|
lesson | Lesson-plan skeleton by grade band (primary / secondary / tertiary / adult) with a minute budget |
quiz | Validate quiz items — stem, ≥2 unique options, answer index in range, explanation |
rubric | Analytic rubric table from criteria × levels |
flashcard | Convert Q/A pairs to Anki TSV or markdown |
level | Readability — Flesch for English, CJK length heuristics for Chinese |
grade | Grading sheet from scored items — totals, percentage, letter grade, pass/fail |
studyplan | Weekly study plan from a date range and topic hour budgets |
question | Question skeletons by type (single/multiple/fill/short) and difficulty |
classstats | Class score statistics — mean, median, stdev, pass rate, score bands |
Config
All optional, on the composition row's config:
| key | default | meaning |
|---|
personaSection | true | register the education prompt-guidance section |
sectionOrder | 6 | prompt section order (persona is 0, ascending) |
Design
Pure logic (lib/education.js) has zero DSH/Cordis imports and is unit-tested in isolation; lib/index.js is the thin Cordis plugin wiring the tool and the prompt section. No filesystem access — deterministic and side-effect free.
