dsh-short-video-studio: A Local AI Video Creation Studio for DeepSeek Harness

What Does It Do?

dsh-short-video-studio is a DSH plugin for DeepSeek Harness that turns short drama/animation creation into a streamlined workflow inside the harness. It solves the pain of juggling multiple tools and relying on paid cloud APIs by running all generation locally via ComfyUI. Core capabilities include a canvas view, agent tools, bundled skills, and ComfyUI configuration management.

Core Features

• Local generation: images via FLUX and videos via MiniMax H3, all on local ComfyUI with no cloud dependency.
• Canvas view: each session gets a canvas tab to preview and edit step outputs in production order.
• Agent tools: comfy_generate_image, comfy_generate_video, and canvas_* tools share persistent state with the canvas.
• Bundled skill: auto-installs a 3D animation short generator skill to ~/.dsh/skills/ for model discovery.
• Audio-video workflow: H3 model generates videos with sound, supports reference image binding and native subtitles.
• Fast/quality modes: fast (4-step) and quality (20-step) with resolution derived from canvas aspect ratio.

How to Use This Plugin?

After enabling it in DSH, a canvas tab appears in sessions, and the agent drives the pipeline through narrative and a task board. You can start with a one-line idea (e.g., "a little fox who wants to be an astronaut"), and the agent follows a fixed pipeline (project brief → story outline → character cards → scene cards → shot list → storyboard → per-shot generation), confirming key decisions with tab options. Outputs land on the canvas for per-shot preview or redo. ComfyUI settings like baseUrl and apiKey can be configured in the settings page and take effect immediately.
