dsh-commit-listener

A DeepSeek Harness plugin: /commit-listen watches the session workspace's git repository and hands every new commit to the agent as a formal new turn (agent.followup() → next-turn inbox → append-only session log).

Files

• commit-listener.js — the plugin (plain ESM, zero dependencies, no build step)
• test-commit-listener.mjs — self-check against a real temp git repo (node test-commit-listener.mjs)
• cordis.patch.yml — the patch-list overlay that loads the plugin

Install (DSH Desktop)

Append the insert entry from cordis.patch.yml to the live profile's user patch layer:

~/Library/Application Support/dsh-desktop/harness/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml   # macOS, desktop app
~/.dsh/profiles/<profile>/cordis.patch.yml                                        # default DSH_HOME

The patch layer hot-reloads on long-lived surfaces (patchReload: "live"); otherwise restart the app.

Usage

/commit-listen                                # default analysis prompt
/commit-listen Focus on security risks        # custom analysis prompt
/commit-listen off                            # stop watching

• Polls git rev-parse HEAD every 2.5 s; bursts between polls coalesce into one turn reporting the full base..latest range (diffstat + truncated unified diff).
• Watches the session workspace (agent.session.header.cwd), not the server cwd — independent chats can listen to different repositories.
• Stops on /commit-listen off, on session close (agent/disposed), and on plugin unload/HMR (ctx.effect disposer).
• Commands never consume model context: results render in the UI only, while command/run / command/done land in the session log for auditability.
