Background images are loaded directly from the configured URL and depend on the browser's network and Content Security Policy.

dsh-custom-workspace DSH plugin: from the repository README

Quoted from the JeremyGuo/dsh-custom-workspace README, the upstream source of the dsh-custom-workspace DSH plugin. Copyright remains with the original authors.

English | [中文](README.zh.md) An external [DeepSeek Harness](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness) Web plugin that gives each workspace its own background, chat font size, line height, Markdown block spacing, and font-rendering preference. ## Features - Background color or image URL for the main workspace surface. - Independent Markdown body font size and line height. - Markdown block spacing for paragraphs, lists, headings, quotes, and code blocks. - Grayscale antialiasing toggle for Retina displays. - Per-workspace persistence in `$DSH_HOME/settings.yaml`. The active appearance follows the workspace containing the current session and falls back to the most recently selected workspace. Workspaces without an override inherit the active DSH theme. ## Examples Theme defaults (font and spacing inherit from DSH): ![Default workspace appearance](assets/screenshots/default.jpg) Compact reading — `13px` font, `20px` line height, `4px` block spacing, `#eef4ff` background: ![Compact workspace appearance with a blue background](assets/screenshots/compact.jpg) Spacious reading — `20px` font, `38px` line height, `28px` block spacing, `#fff3e8` background: ![Spacious worksp

dsh-custom-workspace DSH plugin questions

How do I install dsh-custom-workspace?

Run `dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-custom-workspace` in your terminal, then restart DSH Web with `dsh web`. After installation, open Settings → General Settings → Workspace Appearance to configure the selected workspace.

Why are my workspace appearance settings not saving?

Settings are saved immediately after change. If you see no effect, ensure you are accessing DSH Web via a loopback address (e.g., 127.0.0.1) because the plugin's settings RPC rejects non-loopback browsers. Also check that your DSH version is 0.1.0-rc.6 and Node.js is ^22.19.0 or >=24.0.0.

Can I use a background image URL?

Yes. In the Workspace Appearance settings, you can enter a background image URL. The image will be loaded directly by the browser, so it must be accessible from the browser's network and comply with the Content Security Policy of your DSH Web instance.

Does this plugin affect model responses or session logs?

No. Workspace appearance only changes the browser presentation. It never reaches a model request or session log, as stated in the 'Model Experience' section of the plugin's documentation.

How do I uninstall dsh-custom-workspace?

Run `dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-custom-workspace` in your terminal. This removes the plugin from the Web profile. You may need to restart DSH Web for the changes to take effect.
