dsh-checkpoint-rewind DSH plugin

dsh-checkpoint-rewind is an installable DSH bundle plugin for checkpointing workspace state before mutating tool executions. Its `/rewind` command requires confirmation, restores a selected snapshot, and then forks the session at the relevant turn boundary.

How to install the dsh-checkpoint-rewind DSH plugin

What the dsh-checkpoint-rewind DSH plugin can do

  • Captures workspace snapshots before filesystem and configured mutating-tool executions.
  • Uses git snapshot objects when available and an incremental copy-based provider otherwise.
  • Lists checkpoints and supports rewind by ID prefix, step, or latest checkpoint.
  • Requires confirmation before restoring files and fails closed if no confirmation channel is available.
  • Creates a pre-rewind guard checkpoint so an approved rewind can be reversed.
  • Forks the DSH session after a successful file restore when a closed turn boundary is available.
  • Stores checkpoint metadata in the DSH storage domain and supports retention quotas.

Where the dsh-checkpoint-rewind DSH plugin fits

  • Recovering a workspace before an agent file edit or shell-driven mutation.
  • Returning an agent workflow to a prior checkpoint while keeping workspace files and session context aligned.
  • Adding approval-gated rollback to DSH development sessions.
  • Using copy-based snapshots in non-git workspaces or git snapshots in repositories with a valid HEAD.

Who the dsh-checkpoint-rewind DSH plugin is for

  • DeepSeek Harness users working with mutable local workspaces.
  • Developers who want checkpointed agent workflows and reversible restores.
  • DSH integrators configuring Cordis-based plugins, storage, and confirmation providers.

dsh-checkpoint-rewind DSH plugin limitations

  • Requires DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6 peer dependencies and Node.js ^22.19.0 or >=24.0.0 as declared by the package.
  • Git snapshots require git and a repository with an existing HEAD; non-git and unborn-HEAD workspaces use the copy provider.
  • A restore needs a confirmation answerer; without one, the plugin does not restore files.
  • Session forking depends on a closed turn boundary; a checkpoint can be restored while its session fork remains unavailable or fails.
  • Restore overwrites captured files but intentionally does not delete files created after the checkpoint.
  • The shipped session projection has no rendered shell panel, and on rc.6 custom checkpoint events are not appended through the adaptive event gate.

Is dsh-checkpoint-rewind compatible with the current DSH release?

The source data does not include a verified compatibility matrix. Check recent commits, releases, and DSH breaking changes, then test in a profile you can roll back.

What should I do if dsh-checkpoint-rewind fails to load?

Check the install command, selected profile, dependency logs, and Cordis startup output first. Keep the exact error string, then compare it with this site's fix pages and upstream issues.
