internal-skill-workshop

internal-skill-workshop is a DeepSeek Harness Web plugin for finding and installing team Skills from a configured Skill Base server.

It provides:

• a DSH Settings section for the team Skill Base address;
• an administrator-provided default server address;
• public catalog browsing without an account;
• verification-code sign-in for private team Skills;
• one-click installation into the DSH user Skill directory;
• metadata for the author, version, visibility, type, compatible tools, and tags.

Publishing and Skill administration remain in Skill Base Web, skb, or Companion.

Install

You need a running Skill Base server that DSH Web can reach. The plugin is a team catalog client; it does not include or deploy the server.

▼
sh
复制代码
dsh plugin --profile web add internal-skill-workshop

Restart DSH Web, then open Settings -> Internal Skill Workshop.

Team setup

An administrator can preset one shared server address in the profile's cordis.patch.yml:

▼
yaml
复制代码
- id: internal-skill-workshop
  config:
    baseUrl: https://skills.company.example

Every team member using that profile starts with the same address. A member may save a personal address from the plugin; the personal value takes precedence. Remote servers must use HTTPS. Loopback HTTP is accepted for local development.

Member workflow

1. Open Settings -> Internal Skill Workshop.
2. Confirm or enter the Skill Base root address without an /api suffix.
3. Search immediately to browse public Skills.
4. To see private Skills, choose Get code. Sign in on the Skill Base page and copy the generated verification code back into the plugin.
5. Select a Skill and choose Install.

The plugin installs to:

▼
text
复制代码
$DSH_HOME/skills/<skill-id>

$DSH_HOME defaults to ~/.dsh. The plugin does not accept a path from the browser and refuses to overwrite an existing Skill directory. Updating and replacing locally modified Skills are intentionally out of scope for this release.

Credentials

The plugin never asks for a Skill Base password. It exchanges a five-minute, single-use verification code for a Skill Base personal access token (PAT). The DSH host stores the PAT in:

▼
text
复制代码
$DSH_HOME/internal-skill-workshop/credentials.json

The file is written with owner-only permissions where the platform supports them. The PAT is attached to Skill Base requests only by the DSH host and is never returned to the browser, placed in a URL, or stored in browser localStorage. Sign out removes the local PAT.

Skill Base currently issues long-lived PATs through this flow. Signing out of the plugin removes the local copy but does not revoke the server-side token; server administrators should remove an exposed or retired PAT from Skill Base.

API keys and translation

The DSH plugin does not require an API key. Do not paste a Cloudflare or Skill Base credential into its server-address setting.

If a Skill Base deployment provides a Translate to Chinese action on its publishing page, that is a separate server-side feature. The Skill Base server operator enables it by supplying these environment variables to the server process or container:

▼
dotenv
复制代码
CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID=<Cloudflare account ID>
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=<token with Workers AI access>
SKILL_BASE_TRANSLATION_TIMEOUT_MS=20000

SKILL_BASE_TRANSLATION_TIMEOUT_MS is optional and defaults to 20 seconds. The account ID and token must remain on the server. For Docker deployments, ensure the deployment explicitly passes them into the application container; adding them to a host .env file alone may not do that.

Security boundaries

• The browser can call the plugin host only through a loopback-only DSH RPC channel.
• The host validates the Skill Base URL and rejects remote HTTP, credentials, query strings, fragments, and redirects.
• Downloaded archives are limited to 50 MB compressed, 100 MB unpacked, and 2,000 entries.
• Skill Base JSON responses are limited to 5 MB, and untrusted Skill IDs are validated before any local path check.
• ZIP traversal, absolute paths, symbolic links, duplicate paths, files outside the Skill root, and invalid SKILL.md frontmatter are rejected.
• The host sends the browser only the catalog fields rendered by the UI.
• Installation is staged and then atomically renamed into $DSH_HOME/skills/<skill-id>.
