#### Community desktop packaging of DeepSeek Harness

DSH Desktop (Community) packages the upstream DeepSeek Harness as a native desktop application.

It keeps the original Harness Web UI intact and adds a local desktop controller for safely managing its lifecycle.

### Features:

* Bundled, version-pinned Node runtime and Harness release. No system Node, pnpm, or global package installation is required.
* Start, stop, restart, and recover the local Harness process from a native controller.
* Cordis plugin marketplace with explicit installation confirmation, integrity checks, and user-controlled activation.
* Safe import and export of agent presets.
* Optional local diagnostics for troubleshooting.
* English and Simplified Chinese controller interface.
* Native amd64 and arm64 packages under strict Snap confinement.

Updates for the Snap edition are delivered by the Snap Store and snapd, not by the in-app updater.

DSH Desktop (Community) is an independent, community-maintained package from Web.Casa. It is not an upstream DeepSeek product and does not modify the Harness Web UI.

Plugins and presets run with the Harness's privileges. Install only content you trust.

## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install DSH Desktop (Community)

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include *snap* by default, *snap* can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for *snapd*.

Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
