⚡ Overview & The Problem
When interacting with certain upstream model providers or API gateways, raw DSML (DeepSeek Markup Language) tool-invocation protocol tags can leak into the assistant's visible text stream. Users frequently see trailing protocol clutter like:
Done. All tests have passed.
</｜DSML｜parameter> </｜DSML｜invoke> </｜DSML｜tool_calls>
These leaked closing tags visually pollute the chat bubble, cause Markdown rendering glitches, and can confuse downstream agents or clipboard exports.
@goodandready/dsh-dsml-artifact-guard is a lightweight, host-only runtime stream interceptor for DeepSeek Harness that cleans up these terminal artifacts in real time before they reach the user interface:
- Synchronous Stream Contract Preservation: Cordis requires stream interceptors to return an
AsyncIterable synchronously. Making interceptors async returns a Promise that crashes the harness turn with stream is not async iterable. This guard adheres strictly to the synchronous hook contract.
- Split Chunk Buffer Pipeline: Protocol tags often arrive split across multiple TCP or WebSocket text deltas. The guard maintains a small sliding buffer (
KEEP = 96 bytes) to reliably match and strip multi-chunk tails.
- 100% Fail-Open Safety: Never drops legitimate user or assistant text. Legitimate discussions about DSML syntax or internal tool calls are preserved intact.
- Targeted Provider & Model Scoping: Restricts processing specifically to the provider and model configurations that exhibit tag leakage, passing other model traffic through with zero overhead.

✨ Features & Capabilities
1. Synchronous Hook Guarantee
Under Cordis and DSH service lifecycles, event listeners on llm/stream must return the transformed stream synchronously. An asynchronous hook wrapper will return a Promise<AsyncIterable>, causing the runtime dispatcher to immediately throw TypeError: stream is not async iterable. dsh-dsml-artifact-guard wraps the stream generator in a pure synchronous registration.
2. Multi-Chunk Tail Buffering
In real-world streaming, the artifact </｜DSML｜parameter> </｜DSML｜invoke> </｜DSML｜tool_calls> is frequently fractured into fragments:
- Chunk 1:
All tasks complete. </｜DSML｜pa
- Chunk 2:
rameter> </｜DSML｜invoke>
- Chunk 3:
</｜DSML｜tool_calls>
The guard retains a minimal 96-byte window until the next chunk or finish event arrives, ensuring fractured tags are seamlessly detected and sanitized as a single terminal artifact.
3. Fail-Open Architecture
- If the text contains genuine prose about DSML (e.g.
<｜DSML｜tool_calls>example</｜DSML｜tool_calls>), it is never removed.
- Non-text chunks (
tool-call-delta, usage, finish) are forwarded immediately without delay.
- Any malformed chunk structure passes through transparently to preserve session stability.
4. Flexible Operating Modes
sanitize (default): Strips terminal DSML closing tags and logs a warning with the count of removed artifacts.audit: Emits diagnostic logs with ctx.logger.info(...) without modifying the user-visible stream.disabled: Bypasses processing entirely.
5. Native Web UI Settings Card
Registered directly in the DeepSeek Harness settings.plugin.item slot (lib/client.js):
- Reactive Configuration: Adjust
mode, providerId, and modelId on the fly without restarting the harness, powered by reactive scope.watch.
- Snapshot State Awareness: Gracefully handles snapshot loading, ready, and unavailable states.
- Protection Bypass Warning: Displays a prominent
OFF badge and warning banner when the guard is set to disabled.
6. One-Click In-Place Auto-Updater
A canonical HTTP management route (/api/dsh-dsml-artifact-guard/update) mounted via lib/updater.js:
- SemVer Inspection: Queries the registry and compares versions with full pre-release support.
- Loopback & Same-Origin Protection: Write mutations (
POST) are strictly restricted to local loopback connections with valid origin headers.
- Clean Invocation: Executes package updates safely without risky CLI bypass flags.
7. Full Dark & Light Theme Compliance
All client UI styles are strictly tokenized via DeepSeek Harness --dsw-alias-... CSS custom properties and color-mix() functions with zero hardcoded hex or rgba color literals. High contrast and accessibility are guaranteed in both Dark and Light themes, guarded by automated regression tests (test/theme.test.js).
📦 Installation
Install into your DeepSeek Harness web profile:
dsh plugin --profile web add @goodandready/dsh-dsml-artifact-guard
