dsh-subagent-codex-plus
English | 中文
This plugin is forked from the official @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-codex plugin. It keeps the official one-shot Codex delegation exactly as upstream ships it, and layers a set of extensions on top so that Codex becomes a first-class citizen inside DeepSeek Harness (dsh): continuous conversation, live intermediate output, and a true-gateway mode where dsh only relays bytes between you and a Codex session — no model runs in between.
Relationship with dsh-subagent-pi
dsh-subagent-pi is the sibling plugin of this one: both are personal forks of the official @deepseek-ai/dsh-subagent-codex that add the same true-gateway layer on top — direct connection, queued/steered continuous conversation, live intermediate output, durable binding, and image passthrough. They differ only in the direct-connected agent — Codex here, Pi in dsh-subagent-pi — and share the same architecture, so features, commands, and docs map one-to-one:
| dsh-subagent-codex-plus (this plugin) | dsh-subagent-pi |
|---|
| Direct-connected agent | Codex | Pi |
| Lock command | /codex-lock | /pi-lock |
| Unlock command | /codex-unlock | /pi-unlock |
| Header badge | CDX-xxxx | PI-xxxx |
Both projects live under the same GitHub account and are maintained in parallel. Pick either — or install both; each binds its own sessions and they coexist without interference.
Features
1. True-gateway direct connection (core)
One local command binds your current dsh conversation 1:1 to a durable Codex thread; from then on everything you type in the dsh composer goes straight to Codex — dsh runs no model in between, it only relays.
/codex-lock binds the session to a persistent Codex thread./codex-unlock unbinds and restores the normal dsh agent loop; the Codex thread is kept and can be rebound anytime.- Durable binding: after shutting down / restarting dsh, reopening the session auto-reconnects the same Codex thread (connection contention handled automatically), no manual step needed.
- One Codex thread can be bound to only one dsh session.
2. Continuous conversation: queue + direct insert
- While Codex is busy, new messages are queued automatically and appear immediately in the native composer queue strip (visible, editable, deletable, steerable), running in order when the current turn ends.
- The floating panel can insert a message directly (it runs ahead of queued messages on the next turn).
- The queue is fully manageable: the native queue strip can view/edit/delete/steer; the floating panel can insert/cancel.
3. Live intermediate output
Codex's execution progress (reasoning summaries, message deltas, tool calls, status events) shows up in the dsh session in near real time — not just the final answer. By default it is display-only and never enters the dsh model context.
Long-running tool calls get a heartbeat: while a tool item is open, the composer-dock status line shows 正在执行 <tool> and, after one minute, the live elapsed time (已运行 4 分 30 秒). A multi-minute local command therefore never looks like a hang.
4. Status display
Once bound, the session header shows a CDX-xxxx badge (colored status dot + first 4 thread id chars) and the composer dock shows a "Codex 直连 · …" status line. Unbound sessions show nothing, keeping the UI clean.
5. Image / attachment passthrough
Paste or upload images and hand them to Codex as-is (Codex's own model can see them when it has vision). Vision fallback is handled by the TeamAI skill ocgw-vision.
6. Delegation and gateway coexist
One dsh conversation can hold multiple one-shot delegated Codex runs (model-triggered) and at most one user-attached gateway session, switching freely between them.
Quick start
Install
dsh plugin --profile <name> add /path/to/dsh-subagent-codex-plus
dsh --profile <name>
Usage
- Open any dsh session (cwd is your project).
- Type
/codex-lock: after binding succeeds the header shows a CDX-xxxx badge, and input goes straight to Codex.
- While Codex is busy, further messages queue automatically and show up immediately in the native composer queue strip (edit/delete/steer), running in order when the current turn ends.
/codex-unlock disconnects; the Codex thread is kept and can be rebound anytime.
Delegation (official baseline, unchanged)
