Tool search & slimming for DeepSeek Harness: Hermes-style progressive disclosure — search, describe, and call long-tail tools on demand

About

An experimental external Native Tool Mode plugin for per-agent tool discovery and progressive schema disclosure. Each live agent sees one scope-local tool_search tool plus the global tools matched by alwaysVisible; other eligible global tools stay executable only after tool_search selects them. The plugin uses the existing ctx.tools.restrict() seam and does not change agent-loop. This private repository is the plugin's source of truth. The package is unreleased and carries no compatibility promise. See the scale benchmark report for keyless 10/30/50/100-tool results and the design record for the decision and trade-offs.

Installation

The repository is private and the package is not published to an npm registry. Install a reviewed commit directly from GitHub with Git credentials and pnpm 11.7.0; install it separately into every profile that should use tool search. The -w flag is required because a DSH profile is a pnpm workspace root: dsh plugin --profile headless add -w github:dsh-external/dsh-tool-search#

Config

name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-tool-search' config: alwaysVisible: [read_file, todo_*] maxResults: 5 maxQueryChars: 512 Invalid positive-integer bounds, empty or whitespace-padded patterns, and repeated patterns fail at plugin load. A model may request a smaller limit, from 1 through maxResults; it cannot raise the deployment bound.
