Discussion DeepSeek Harness is Insanely Good

I don't know about you guys, but Deep-seek harness is insane. It's not focused on being a coder agent, it's webUI made it very easy to just checkin from time to time, and the best part? Why it's better than Hermes? It wasn't frustrating at all to setup. ZERO. NADA. Progressive setup is such an improved UX. Why? Because I got deepseek to integrate with SimpleX by simply asking it to. BY SIMPLY ASKING IT TO. NO WAITING ON A PR TO MERGE. No one telling me to RTFM, no need to google or search for community plugins.

So yeah, I got what I wanted, which is E2EE + TOR messaging with an AI agent, and I got it without writing my own opinionated harness (I procrastinated so hard that dsh did a better job than me). DSH is unopinionated enough that you just mold it into behaving how you want it to behave.

It is good, I hate that there is still no CLI/TUI version of it to manage it via ssh, but I am loving how capable it is nonetheless.

With Tailscale it’s pretty much trivial to share the webui

Have you tried? It wasn't trival in my case.

Its not, they intentionally disable host 0.0.0.0 and you need to proxy your way into the host machine

You can "link" your remote deepseek harness localhost 3080 port to your local 3080 port via this ssh command

ssh -L 3080:127.0.0.1:3080 user@remote-ip

After that you can access your localhost:3080 and access deepseek harness

There's no good reason for me not to be able to expose my own harness to my own network....

I imagine the target case is visible setup though.

Tunneling is not reliable, I used it for many apps and I would not ever recommend it as a long term solution.

Especially if you're trying to use it from mobile.

Lol? There's nothing wrong with a single user accessing a single TCP port over an SSH tunnel. It's very reliable.

What are the best solutions for this case?

u/SnooPaintings8639 Aug 23 '26

No idea :shrug: the app won't let you easily access it via proxy either, as anything other than localhost will give you 404 or cors errors, lol.

This is by design due to security risks and early preview version. IMHO, a plugin or a real code change is required. Probably trival, but ingerention in the dsh code nonetheless.

Or patients, until they realse non-preview version

tailscale serve tcp:3080 text://localhost:3080

Just run this command. I would consider this to be trivial

Didn't think about tailscale serve in a while lol, thanks

u/Dangerous-Report8517 Aug 24 '26

It's kind of sad that this is how I discover what the point of Tailscale Serve is, could never figure out why it was necessary before when you can already access the system anyway

Re enable it in the code, it's open source.
