Start without the detour.
If dsh is already on your machine, Harness Desk finds it. If it is not, the app can bring along an isolated runtime with clear, guided setup.

THE SURFACE02 / 04
The useful part
stays close.
A small desktop layer between you and the plumbing.
Harness Desk gives the official DeepSeek Harness experience a home that feels native to your day: a clean window, a tray icon when you need distance, and the right amount of help when something is starting up.

Less interface.
More momentum.
02
Let the window do the watching.
It chooses an available port between 3080 and 3099, checks the local service, and keeps recovery work close at hand when a process gets interrupted.
03
Keep the background quiet.
Use the tray or menu bar to step away. Get a notification for a completed task, a question, or an approval request when you are not looking.
04
Give memory somewhere to go.
When the page is hidden, unfocused, or idle, the desktop client can release the WebView while keeping the Harness service and session state alive.
A small independent project
The agent can be
the interesting part.
Harness Desk is an open-source, third-party desktop client for DeepSeek Harness. It stays intentionally close to the tool it carries.
