agy-staff: An Orchestration DSH plugin That Hires a Gemini Staffer
keli-wen/agy-staff
Hires Google's Antigravity CLI as a fast Gemini staffer inside DeepSeek Harness, adding a subagent sidebar, orchestration modes and role skills.
agy-staff is a DeepSeek Harness plugin that hires Google's Antigravity CLI as a staffer beside your senior agent. It targets the problem of a host agent being slow and quota-hungry when it handles surveys, reviews, and scoped implementation alone, handing that side work to agy while the host focuses on validating assumptions and delivering. The plugin offers lead and brain orchestration modes, five personas, and a model-facing jobs skill, and mounts a visual agy staff subagent sidebar on the right of DSH where /agy-* role cards invoke each role directly.
How to Install
dsh plugin --profile <your-profile> add github:keli-wen/agy-staffReplace --profile with the profile name you actually run (see ls ~/.dsh/profiles/): usually web in the browser UI, desktop or desktop-NNN in the desktop app.

agy-staff Repo Summary
What Does It Do?
agy-staff is a DSH plugin for DeepSeek Harness that hires Google's Antigravity CLI (agy) as a staffer beside your senior agent, giving it access to Gemini 4 Carbon, Gemini 4 Argon, and the fast Gemini 3.8 Flash. It solves the problem of a host agent being slow and quota-hungry when it grinds through surveys, reviews, and scoped implementation alone: that side work goes to agy while the host checks assumptions and delivers. The plugin ships two orchestration modes, five personas, and a model-facing jobs skill, and mounts a visual agy staff subagent sidebar inside DSH.
Core Features
- Two orchestration modes: lead puts agy to work as a fast executor, while brain uses it as a second brain that proposes routes from another model family for the host to validate.
- Five personas: staffer, researcher, reviewer (for both code and plans), implementer, and ask, switchable per task without rewriting prompts.
- Visual subagent sidebar: once enabled, an agy staff panel appears on the right side of DSH, with /agy-* role cards for direct invocation.
- Native tools and a jobs skill: agy-related tools are exposed to the model so the host can delegate work and collect results in a structured way.
- Built-in benchmark evidence: Bench v1 compares solo, own-subagent, and agy-assisted runs on Claude Code and Codex, producing practical guidance on when to delegate.
How to Use This Plugin?
After enabling it in DSH, the agy staff subagent sidebar appears on the right, and you can call a role directly through the /agy-* role cards. The most quota-friendly pattern is to hand quick second opinions, research, code and plan reviews, and tightly scoped implementation to Flash, while leaving design and world-knowledge judgement to Carbon or Argon working as a peer orchestrator with the host. The benchmark findings suggest agy fits research best: on Claude Code host spend dropped 16% to 39%, at the cost of median task time rising from minutes to roughly 13 to 26 minutes, so delegate parallel side work rather than blocking critical-path steps.
How to Troubleshoot This Plugin?
The plugin expects the Antigravity CLI to be installed, authenticated, and available on PATH; if the sidebar or role cards do not appear, first confirm agy responds to a version query, then check that Node.js and the package manager environment are ready. If invoking a role reports a missing command, agy is usually unauthenticated or not on PATH; repair it per the official instructions and restart the host.
