dsh-input-plus DSH plugin
dsh-input-plus is a plugin for the DSH Web UI that adds two input enhancement features. It indexes the active workspace on the Host side and provides candidate menus in the browser for file/directory path selection (via @) and prompt history (via /h). The plugin integrates with DSH's official input trigger system without replacing native UI components.

- Users of DSH Web UI who frequently reference files in their workspace
- Users who want to quickly access previous prompts in the current session
dsh-input-plus DSH plugin limitations
- Requires DSH 0.1.0-rc.6 or a compatible DSH Web profile
- Path references are plain text; the plugin does not read file contents, expand directories, or generate manifests

dsh-input-plus DSH plugin: from the repository README
Quoted from the WhitePlusMS/dsh-input-plus README, the upstream source of the dsh-input-plus DSH plugin. Copyright remains with the original authors.
An input composer enhancement plugin for the DSH Web UI. On the Host side, it builds an index of the active workspace. In the browser, it connects to DSH's official `@` input trigger so files and directories can be searched and inserted into the composer. Type `/h` to open a candidate menu of previous prompts from the current Session.   ## Features ### `@` file and directory path selection Type `@` in the DSH composer, then continue with a file name, directory name, or path fragment. The candidate menu lists files and directories from the current Session workspace. After selection, the draft keeps a plain-text path reference, for example: ```text @src/contract.ts ``` The reference contains only the path. Sending the message does not read the file, expand the directory, or generate a directory manifest. When the model needs the target, it can inspect the path with the native workspace tools provided by the current Session. After selecting a directory, you can continue with an instruction: ```text @src Find the code responsible for candidate ranking ``` The official input-trigger pipeline

dsh-input-plus DSH plugin questions
How to install dsh-input-plus?
Use the DSH profile plugin command: `dsh plugin --profile web add https://github.com/WhitePlusMS/dsh-input-plus/archive/refs/tags/v0.0.2.tar.gz`. The plugin requires DSH 0.1.0-rc.6 or compatible. Ensure you use the GitHub tag archive URL to get the prebuilt lib/ directory; installing a source-only archive will fail.
Can I change the workspace indexing depth?
Yes, configure via the `input-plus` settings namespace. Set `maxIndexDepth` to a value between 0 and 10. The default is 3. You can also adjust `maxIndexEntries` (default 200, max 2000) and `referenceRoot` to override the session workspace path.
Why can't I see the @ candidate menu?
The plugin works only with DSH Web UI's official @ input trigger. Make sure you are using a compatible DSH Web profile and the plugin is installed correctly. Also, the workspace must be set for the current session – the plugin indexes the active workspace. If the workspace is empty or not set, no candidates appear.
Does the plugin read file contents?
No, it only references file paths as plain text. The plugin does not read file contents, expand directories, or generate manifests. The model can use native workspace tools to inspect the path if needed.
Does the history include prompts from other sessions?
No, only prompts successfully submitted in the current session are recorded. The history is not persisted across sessions. Type `/h` then filter by keyword to find past prompts from the current session.
