dsh-workspace-explorer DSH plugin

This plugin integrates a dual-panel file explorer directly into the DSH Web GUI sidebar. It provides a lazy-loaded file tree of all registered workspace directories with language-colored SVG icons, and a resizable editor with syntax highlighting, inline rename, and save functionality. It allows AI agents to see and modify the project structure in real time, enabling true pair programming.

dsh-workspace-explorer DSH plugin limitations

New file/folder creation is only available at workspace root, not in subdirectories
Preview supports UTF-8 text only; binary files show replacement characters
Syntax highlighting is a lightweight regex implementation (not shiki full AST), may have occasional inaccuracies in complex nesting
Files >200 KB automatically switch to plain text; files >256 KB are read-only to prevent accidental overwrite
Windows tested; macOS/Linux theoretically supported but not tested
Requires a web profile (standard web) and DSH 0.1.0-rc.6 or higher

dsh-workspace-explorer DSH plugin questions

How do I install the workspace explorer plugin?

Run `dsh plugin --profile web add github:3911ee/dsh-workspace-explorer` in your terminal. This command will automatically install the plugin via pnpm and add it to your web profile's bundle. After installation, restart the DSH web server and refresh your browser.

Why don't I see the folder icon after installation?

Make sure you have restarted the DSH web server (Ctrl+C then `dsh web` again) and refreshed the browser page. If the icon still doesn't appear, open the browser developer console (F12) to check for any error messages. The plugin loads during startup, so a restart is required.

Can I edit files in the editor and save them?

Yes, you can edit file content directly in the editor panel. Press Ctrl+S or click the save button to write changes to disk. The file size will automatically refresh after saving. Note that files larger than 256 KB are read-only to prevent accidental overwriting.

Does this plugin upload my files to the internet?

No. The plugin runs entirely locally and makes no outbound network connections. All file operations are performed through a local HTTP API (`/workspace-files-api/*`) that is only accessible within the DSH process. Your files never leave your machine.

What languages are supported for syntax highlighting?

The editor supports syntax highlighting for Python, JavaScript/TypeScript/JSX, JSON, HTML/XML, CSS/SCSS/LESS, Markdown, SQL, Shell, YAML/TOML/INI. The highlighting uses a lightweight regex-based approach with VS Code Dark+ color scheme. Files over 200 KB automatically fall back to plain text.
