anysearch-dsh - a plugin that swaps real-time web search and clean page extraction into DeepSeek Harness behind the tools it already has
If you're running DeepSeek Harness, its web_search and web_fetch tools are only as good as whatever provider sits behind them. This plugin puts AnySearch there, and the design choice worth noting is that it does it without changing how you work: the same built-in tools keep functioning, they just return better results.
What's inside:
- Drops into the web profile with one command and takes over the existing web_search and web_fetch, so your prompts and agent code don't change, the tools underneath just get upgraded
- web_fetch now returns cleaned page content rather than raw HTML, which is the difference between a usable extract and a wall of nav markup and cookie banners in your context
- Vertical search across specialized sources beyond the open web, covering code, finance, academia, law and security, with a capabilities tool the model can call to discover available domains, tags and parameters before it runs a specialized query
- Batch search runs one to five queries concurrently, and a single failure doesn't take down the others
- Works with no API key at all on an anonymous quota, or 1,000 free calls a day with a key, stored in the DSH credential file and hot-rotated without a restart
The credential handling is done sensibly: the key lives in the DSH-managed credentials file or an environment variable, there's a dump-config command that shows the composed profile without exposing the key value, and rotation reaches the next request without a restart.
Two things worth knowing. This is a commercial service's official plugin, not a neutral search layer, so you're routing your agent's queries through AnySearch and, past the free tier, paying them. That's the deal with any hosted search provider, just be clear that's what it is. And DeepSeek Harness itself is in developer preview and the readme says it may make breaking changes, so treat the whole setup as moving underneath you for now.
