“Change the third step” is vague. A comment attached to the exact sentence preserves the context the agent needs to revise the plan correctly.

Select exact text → comment on several risks → send one review → approve when ready.

🎯 Why dsh-plannotator

Coding agents are good at producing plans, but a binary Approve / Reject decision is too coarse for serious work. Architecture migrations, API changes, security fixes, and rollout plans often need several independent corrections before implementation begins.

dsh-plannotator turns DSH's native Plan Review into a compact gate plus a responsive companion panel. On a wide screen, the conversation and review occupy separate columns, so opening the panel never covers chat text. Collapse it to a slim edge rail and reopen it without settling the request. Your comments still travel through DSH's existing response flow as structured Markdown, so the agent can revise the proposal in plan mode and ask for review again.

This is an unofficial integration inspired by Plannotator.

🧰 Features

Comment on the exact claim—not “somewhere in the plan”

Drag over text for a precise annotation, or double-click a paragraph, list item, heading, bold phrase, or code fragment. The review keeps the quote and comment together within the current plan revision.

Review the whole plan in one pass

Collect multiple comments across compatibility, security, rollback, and tests; add overall feedback; click an annotation in the review panel to return to its source; then send one coherent review. This keeps the review compact and less ambiguous than a sequence of detached chat messages.

Collapse the review without losing your place

The review panel can shrink to a blue edge rail while the compact composer gate remains visible. Reopen either control to continue with the same comments and overall feedback.

Return actionable feedback to the agent

Send feedback answers the real exit_plan_mode interaction. DSH records the quoted plan text, each requested change, and the overall feedback in the tool result and Session Log. The agent remains in plan mode and can immediately produce a revised proposal.

Protect unfinished reviews

Unsent comments are saved locally in the browser, isolated by Session, pending request, and plan revision. If you try to approve while feedback is still pending, the plugin requires an explicit second confirmation instead of silently discarding your work.

📦 Install

Install the GitHub bundle into the DSH Web profile, then restart dsh web:

dsh plugin --profile web add github:titanwings/dsh-plannotator#v0.1.1

The repository ships its built Host and Web bundles, so installation runs no package build script and needs no allowBuilds entry. Pin a reviewed commit SHA instead of the release tag when you need an exact source revision.

pnpm install
pnpm check

cd /path/to/deepseek-harness
pnpm dsh plugin --profile web add /path/to/dsh-plannotator

🔄 How it works

1. Ask the coding agent to create a plan in DSH Plan mode.
2. When exit_plan_mode reaches Plan Review, DSH shows a compact gate. On wide screens the review opens beside the conversation; narrower screens keep it closed until you choose Open review.
3. Select the exact text that needs work. Collapse and reopen the panel at any time without settling the review.
4. Add as many targeted comments as necessary, plus optional overall feedback.
5. Choose Send feedback. The agent receives one structured review and stays in plan mode.
6. Review the revision and choose Approve when it is ready to implement.

Chat about it dismisses the gate and returns to the ordinary composer. Removing the plugin restores DSH's built-in Plan Review automatically.

Built for real coding plans

The screenshots above use a production-style authentication migration example, not placeholder copy. The same workflow is useful whenever several plan details must be correct before the first edit:

🧩 Compatibility and boundaries

• Designed for the DeepSeek Harness Web client and Node.js 22.19+.
• Claims only a valid, single-question DSH plan-review interaction. Other questions fall through to the built-in renderer.
• Reviews Markdown plans; it is not a general document editor, Git diff viewer, PR publisher, file tree, or the full standalone Plannotator SPA.
• Drafts live in the current browser's local storage. They are not cloud-synced and are intentionally rejected when the plan revision changes.
• At 1480px and above, the plugin reserves a 440–560px companion column beside DSH, so the panel and conversation never overlap. Narrower desktops use an on-demand drawer; phones use a compact bottom sheet.
• The companion panel is plugin-owned, not DSH's core details panel. It uses the stable Web #root mount boundary to reserve space and lets AppFrame reflow normally; it does not register in or rewrite the core details grid.
• No custom Host route, third-party service, or telemetry is used. Feedback travels through DSH's existing response channel.

pnpm build

The browser bundle follows DSH's window.__ModuleLoader__ contract and treats React, ReactDOM, and DSH UI primitives as platform modules, preserving one React runtime.
