@moon16u/dsh-plugin-mcp-console

English | 中文

The MCP server console for the DSH (DeepSeek Harness) web GUI: add, edit, enable/disable, reconnect and delete MCP servers from the settings page, with live status and tool lists, mcpServers JSON import, and automatic migration of profile-YAML MCP entries.

Zero MCP protocol code — connections, reconnect backoff, tool discovery/registration, mcp__<server>__<tool> naming and image bridging all belong to the official @deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client; this plugin is only "config storage + lifecycle orchestration + HTTP API + GUI".

Installation

# Recommended: the whole pouch bundle (this plugin ships inside it)
dsh plugin --profile web add @moon16u/dsh-pouch
# Or standalone:
dsh plugin --profile web add @moon16u/dsh-plugin-mcp-console

Restart dsh web once after installing (bundle layers compose at startup). Then open DSH Web → bottom-left Settings → "MCP servers".

Capabilities

| Capability | Description | |---|---| | Server management | Add (stdio / streamable-http forms), edit, delete, enable/disable, reconnect; config changes take effect immediately, no DSH restart | | Connection test | One-click "Test connection" per server: a throwaway official-client fiber (with failOnStartupError forced on) performs a real handshake and reports tool count + latency; for a running server it honestly reports the live status instead (the official client's serverName namespace cannot be bypassed) | | Per-tool switches | Expand a server card and click tool pills to toggle individual tools; disabled tools are denied at execution time by a guard | | Live status | running / connecting / starting / disabled / failed grading; SSE push updates, tool counts in real time | | JSON import | Paste Claude / Cursor style mcpServers JSON, preview, import; existing names skipped and reported | | Auto-ingest | MCP entries written into cordis.patch.yml by external agents/scripts are migrated into dynamic management on boot and on "Sync config & refresh status" (store persists before the YAML is trimmed — configuration is never lost) | | YAML export | POST /api/dsh-mcp-console/export-yaml restores dynamic config as standard cordis.patch.yml entries (uninstall/backup reversibility) | | Model awareness | A ctx.systemPrompt.section announcement tells every agent that MCP management lives in the settings page, not in hand-edited config files (own inject scope; dormant on hosts without the service) | | Settings integration | enabled / announceToAgent master switches as .volatile() fields of the schema-discovered export const Config (rc.2 SettingsForms): editable from the settings GUI and hot-updated in place, no DSH restart — enabled tears the whole surface down (routes + MCP connections + announcement; stores preserved), announceToAgent toggles only the announcement; hosts without the service fall back to entry defaults | | Settings-GUI card | The "MCP console" card on Settings → Plugins (settings.plugin.item, key mcp-console): collapsible and shaped like the official cards (same --dsw-alias-* tokens and metrics), switches write immediately, and a changed field carries a "Customized" badge with its own reset | | Degraded state | With enabled off, the "MCP servers" page stops reporting an API error and shows the switched-off notice plus the way back (an authenticated 404 on our own prefix is the tell), and keeps the SSE stream closed instead of retrying |

Config storage

• Dynamic config: ~/.dsh/dsh-mcp.json (versioned JSON, atomic writes: temp file + rename; deletions are explicit user intent, no backup files are kept)
• Plugin switches: the official settings user document's mcp-console section (edited via the settings GUI, persisted by the provider)
• Profile layer: ~/.dsh/profiles/web/cordis.patch.yml (the ingest engine touches only mcp-client entries; other entries and comments are preserved verbatim)

HTTP API (loopback-only, prefix /api/dsh-mcp-console/)

GET /health · GET/POST /servers · PATCH/DELETE /servers/:name · POST /servers/:name/enable|disable|reconnect|probe · POST /refresh (ingest YAML + retry failed) · POST /import · POST /export-yaml · GET /events (SSE) · GET/PUT /config (UI config)

Four-layer loopback fence (borrowed from dsh-skills-mcp-manager): loopback socket peer, loopback Host header (DNS-rebinding fence), no sec-fetch-site: cross-site marker, and — when Origin is present — an Origin matching the Host. GET /config (UI placement only) stays open to LAN browsers.

Known limitations (honest wording)

1. Connection-level status: the official client exposes no structured connection events, so "connecting" vs "reconnecting, attempt N" cannot be distinguished; the status model is "fiber lifecycle + tool prefix count".
2. Per-tool disable exposure: tools.restrict() requires an agent scope in dsh-tools (context-global restriction is explicitly forbidden), so a disabled tool still appears in the model's tool list — but its calls are denied by the guard with a clear reason.
3. First-migration boot race: with small probability the loader and the ingest engine assemble the same serverName during boot; the loader-side fiber logs one duplicate error (harmless — the YAML is already trimmed, so it does not recur on the next boot).
4. rc-version coupling: depends on cordis/webserver/tools contracts of the official packages; all official-package coupling is isolated in clientAdapter.js (the official client is resolved dynamically from the profile's module graph, sharing the loader's module instance) and routes.js.
5. "Test connection" on a running server: the official client reserves the serverName namespace per module instance, so a live server cannot be re-probed alongside its own fiber; the button then returns the live status (live: true) instead of a fresh handshake. Fresh side-fiber probes carry a hard 15s timeout.

Development

pnpm --filter @moon16u/dsh-plugin-mcp-console test     # 73 tests
node scripts/sync-root-client.mjs                      # after editing lib/client.js, sync into the pouch root bundle

The marked section inside lib/client.js is kept identical to the dsh-pouch root lib/client.js by the sync script; tests pin it against drift.
