| I just installed DeepSeek Harness for MacOS and it's a beast. The same great harness as before but now is an app you just click on your dock to run All settings and workspaces are transferred so you don't lose anything, the only thing it lacks is a way to increase/decrease font size with cmd + and cmd - so I'll work on a plugin for that I can't be happier Edit: Asked DSH for a plugin to increase/decrease font and it delivered. Love it. Then asked for a plugin to ring a bell on questions and tasks finished, of course it delivered flawlessly. The same plugin architecture, extensible by the same AI |

| Deepseek harness seems good but this thread feels astroturfy |

| ▲ | fakwandi_priv 3 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Most of this thread seems neutral/skeptical with just that post being obvious. On the other hand the volume of jev threads we have been seeing these past 2 weeks.. | | | |

| you do can change font size in settings, but not with keyboard shortcut. for some reason, they decided to limit font size to 17 max. |

| ▲ | Kuyawa 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | Do the same as I did, ask it to develop a plugin to increase/decrease font and you will see results in one single task, dsh-zoom as a plugin, restart and done |

| Is this for the DS API or with the local version? |

| Can you elaborate? What's better about it vs. other harnesses? What can it do that others can't? I'm not sure what you mean by it's a beast. |

| ▲ | cjbprime 5 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | It has particularly good observability (the ability to see the full content of every prompt and response and tool call) compared to other harnesses, that's the main thing that stood out to me. | | |
| ▲ | inexcf an hour ago | parent [-] | | Weird. I don't use the official harnesses by OpenAI or Anthropic but with all others i tried there wasn't a single one that hides any of that. What harnesses did you compare to? |

| ▲ | Kuyawa 5 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | All LLMs work the same to a certain degree, it's a matter of personal preference, token cost and customization. I asked DSH to build a news aggregator for me and it built a really nice app from 30 news sources via rss feeds for less than 50 cents and presto, reading tech news has never been so gratifying | | |
| ▲ | pylotlight 5 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | literally every harness can do that tho, that doesn't really answer the question. | | |
| ▲ | zarmin 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | i read somewhere that it can write a plugin to change its font size | | |

| ▲ | anonzzzies 3 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | I feel like I live in another reality from others here; I read people saying things ‘while their jaws are hanging open’ (not said here literally but the feel is the same ; I see it in other threads on HN literally here though); why are we so chuffed with stuff that’s now been one shot for maybe already a year, but definitely the last 6 months? Literally everyone who tried LLMs know this and yet it seems a huge surprise to people here that it is so easy now? And that’s opposite of the people, also very much on HN, who say AI is shit at coding and will not replace humans because humans have to fix its bad code. |

| Just wait until I add coding to https://blackbear.app... it's going to be ridiculous. (blackbear.app was developed entirely by a custom harness architecture) |
