Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

dsh-shortcut-creator

v0.1.0

Published

DSH web plugin: create a one-click Windows desktop shortcut (launcher .cmd + auto browser open + taskbar pin hint) for DeepSeek Harness or any local server, right from the Settings page.

Readme

功能

把「打开 PowerShell → 敲命令 → 再开浏览器」变成双击一下。在 设置 → Desktop Shortcut 里填一个小表单,插件自动完成:

  1. 生成 .cmd 启动器 —— 在控制台窗口里启动命令、等 URL 就绪后自动打开默认浏览器、保持窗口存活(关窗即停服);服务已在运行则直接打开浏览器。
  2. 创建桌面 .lnk 快捷方式 —— 指向启动器(DeepSeek Harness 用 Node.js 图标)。
  3. 尝试固定到任务栏 —— 目标类型无法程序化固定时,打印「固定运行中窗口」的兜底指引(永远有效)。

核心逻辑由打包内置的、自包含的 assets/New-DesktopShortcut.ps1 完成(零外部依赖,也可独立运行)。

能力清单

| 能力 | 说明 | | --- | --- | | 设置页 UI | settings.section「Desktop Shortcut」:名称 / 命令 / URL / 工作目录表单 | | Host JSON API | POST /plugins/desktop-shortcut/api/install 执行 PowerShell 引擎;.../status 上报平台 | | 启动器生成 | 带端口检查的 .cmd,自动开浏览器,兼容「已在运行」场景 | | 任务栏固定 | 尽力程序化固定 + 「固定运行中窗口」兜底指引 |

安装(bundle 形态,需重启 web)

# git 源(lib/ 已入库)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:Yvesgao/dsh-desktop-launcher#main

# 或 npm
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-shortcut-creator

重启 web(dsh web)后,打开 设置 → Desktop Shortcut,填好表单点 Create desktop shortcut 即可。

仅支持 Windows —— PowerShell 引擎是 Windows 组件。设置页在所有平台都会出现,但在非 Windows 平台会报错提示。

开发

pnpm install
pnpm build        # tsc(host lib)+ tsdown(client bundle lib/client.js)
pnpm typecheck

官方插件开发契约与可参考的社区插件源码已收集在 docs/references/

插件管理

已装插件推荐用 plugin-registry 的薄控制台管理(浏览器面板):bundle 层栈 + insert 行 + 启停,无需手改配置。

dsh plugin --profile web add <plugin-registry>/packages/plugin/console

What it does

Turns "open PowerShell, type a command, then open the browser" into a double-click. From Settings → Desktop Shortcut you fill in a small form and the plugin:

  1. Generates a .cmd launcher — starts the command in a console window, waits for the URL to respond, opens your default browser, and keeps the window open (closing it stops the server). If the server is already running it just opens the browser.
  2. Creates a desktop .lnk shortcut pointing at the launcher (Node.js icon for DeepSeek Harness).
  3. Attempts to pin the shortcut to the taskbar and prints manual fallback steps when the target type cannot be pinned programmatically.

The heavy lifting is done by the bundled, self-contained assets/New-DesktopShortcut.ps1 (no external dependencies, works standalone too).

Capabilities

| Capability | Description | | --- | --- | | Settings UI | settings.section "Desktop Shortcut" with a name / command / URL / workdir form | | Host JSON API | POST /plugins/desktop-shortcut/api/install runs the PowerShell engine, .../status reports platform | | Launcher generation | Port-checked .cmd that auto-opens the browser and handles the already-running case | | Taskbar pin | Best-effort programmatic pin with the always-works "pin the running window" fallback instructions |

Install (bundle, requires web restart)

# from a git repo (lib/ committed)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:Yvesgao/dsh-desktop-launcher#main

# or from npm
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-shortcut-creator

Restart the web UI (dsh web). Then open Settings → Desktop Shortcut, fill the form and click Create desktop shortcut.

Windows only — the PowerShell engine is a Windows component. The Settings section appears on all platforms but reports an error when run elsewhere.

Development

pnpm install
pnpm build        # tsc (host lib) + tsdown (client bundle lib/client.js)
pnpm typecheck

Reference contracts (official plugin development guide + a working community plugin) are collected under docs/references/.

Plugin management

Manage installed plugins with the plugin-registry thin console (browser panel): bundle layer stack + insert rows + enable/disable, no manual config edits.

dsh plugin --profile web add <plugin-registry>/packages/plugin/console
