What the dsh-vlm-bridge DSH plugin can do
- Adds the `vision_analyze` tool to DeepSeek Harness.
- Analyzes image files with a VLM API; the documented default is ModelScope `Qwen/Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct`.
- Supports a `question` parameter for image-detail follow-up questions.
- Configures endpoint, model, caching, request timeout, token limit, and log-file path through plugin configuration.
- Reads the required `VLM_API_KEY` only from DSH credentials.
- Provides a verification script covering module resolution, configuration schema, tool registration, and optional VLM end-to-end testing.
Where the dsh-vlm-bridge DSH plugin fits
- Give a text-only DSH model a textual description of a local image.
- Ask targeted questions about image contents.
- Use an alternative configured VLM endpoint or model for image understanding.
Who the dsh-vlm-bridge DSH plugin is for
- DeepSeek Harness users running models without image input support.
- Developers configuring DSH bundle plugins and VLM credentials.
dsh-vlm-bridge DSH plugin limitations
- Requires a `VLM_API_KEY` in `~/.dsh/.credentials.yaml` for VLM requests.
- Image analysis depends on the configured external VLM API endpoint and model.
- A DSH process restart is required after installation so the bundle layer is read.
- Local linked development installations may require a junction for resolving `@deepseek-ai/*` dependencies.
- The documented end-to-end verification skips VLM testing when no API key is available.
