Set up

Skills are installed by placing their folder where your agent loads skills.

The download comes from github.com/aaravarr/dsh-subagent-max itself, not from our server, so what you get is exactly what its author published.

Install instructions come from the README

Skills do not use an MCP config. Follow the steps in the README below.

Multi-panel live subagent viewer for DeepSeek Harness (DSH), plus a subagent_with_model tool for per-call model/provider override.

Screenshots

Subagents tab — a card grid grouped into active / inactive and sorted by last activity.

Floating viewer panel — a draggable panel streaming a subagent's live output: task, reasoning, tool calls, and text.

A two-face DSH plugin:

  • Host face (lib/index.js) — a Cordis plugin that registers the subagent_with_model tool, a thin wrapper over ctx.subagents that forwards model / provider into the child's agentOptions.
  • Client face (lib/client.js) — a Web UI that renders every subagent as a draggable, resizable floating panel with live token-by-token output, plus a Subagents tab with a card grid.

Features

  • Per-call model / provider override — delegate to a subagent and pick its model explicitly.
  • Smart provider selection — when no provider is given, prefer the parent's provider if it serves the requested model, otherwise auto-find a provider that carries it.
  • Multi-panel live viewer — open several subagent panels at once; each streams output in real time.
  • Rich block rendering — prompt block, reasoning (think) blocks, tool-call cards with input/output, streaming shimmer, markdown.
  • Subagents tab — card grid grouped into active / inactive and sorted by last activity; shows model, tokens, steps, context % and relative update time.
  • Drag to pop out — drag a card onto the canvas to open its panel exactly where you drop it (with a ghost preview).
  • Notifications — side-top toasts when a subagent starts or receives a message.
  • i18n — zh / en, switchable from DSH settings.

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add @aaravarr/dsh-subagent-max

or, manually, place the package under <profile>/node_modules/@aaravarr/dsh-subagent-max/ and add the entry to cordis.patch.yml (see Config).

Config

- insert:
    - id: dsh-subagent-max
      name: '@aaravarr/dsh-subagent-max'
      config:
        subagentProvider: spawn        # spawn | fork | acp
        toolName: subagent_with_model
        backgroundMode: continuable    # one-shot | continuable
        maxDepth: 3
FieldTypeDefaultDescription
subagentProviderstringspawnSubagent transport provider.
toolNamestringsubagent_with_modelModel-facing tool name; must be unique among loaded tools.
backgroundModestringone-shotcontinuable returns a durable subagent id; one-shot runs foreground.
maxDepthnumber3Absolute delegation-depth cap for children (0 forbids further delegation).

Usage

Ask the model to delegate with an explicit model:

Start a subagent with deepseek-v4-flash to review this repo's test coverage.

Tool parameters:

ArgTypeRequiredNotes
modelstringyesChild model id (e.g. deepseek-v4-pro, deepseek-v4-flash, k3-256k).
providerstringnoLLM provider route. Omitted -> auto-selected: the parent's own provider is preferred when it can serve the requested model; otherwise the first provider carrying that model is used; if none does, the parent's provider is inherited (the child may then fail with UNKNOWN_MODEL).
descriptionstringyesShort (3-5 word) task label.
promptstringyesComplete, self-contained task.
run_in_backgroundboolnoBackground routing; default follows backgroundMode.

Known Limitations

  • Model display is derived from the session's request/header; it can be absent for some children.
  • Last-activity time is tracked client-side and cached in localStorage; the first open after a fresh load may fall back to the session's updatedAt.
  • Client UI targets the web platform only.

Development

pnpm install
node --check lib/index.js lib/client.js
