dsh-haavk-boot: A Haavk Relink Splash Screen for DeepSeek Harness
shawsheepsussiah/dsh-haavk-boot
A DSH plugin that plays a full-screen Haavk Relink boot animation on DeepSeek Harness startup, with timed subtitles, particle layers and HUD frames, toggleable in settings.
dsh-haavk-boot is a DSH plugin that adds a boot animation to DeepSeek Harness, turning a plain startup into a full-screen video sequence before the main interface appears. It renders H.264 1080p footage that covers the whole window, paired with six subtitle lines that light up in sync, Canvas stardust particles, corner cursors, and scan-line HUD elements for the Haavk Relink node feel. A settings panel lets you disable or replay the animation, the native title bar buttons can be hidden on Windows in windowed mode, and any failed step releases the page instead of locking the interface.

What Does It Do?
Haavk Relink Boot Firmware is a DSH plugin for DeepSeek Harness that plays a native full-screen boot animation before the main interface appears. It solves the problem of a plain, uneventful startup by bringing a "Haavk Relink node" style splash sequence into the harness. Maintained by ShawSheepSussiah under the MIT license and written in JavaScript, it combines a full-screen video, timed subtitles, particle layers, and HUD framing.
Core Features
- Full-screen boot video: H.264 1080p native rendering that covers the whole window with no black bars.
- Timed subtitles: six subtitle lines light up according to the video's real playback time, aligned with the voiceover and driven by an array in the splash script.
- Particle and HUD layers: Canvas stardust and light dust blended over the video, plus corner cursors, scan lines, and a right-side data stream for the Haavk look.
- Title bar hiding: hides the native minimize, maximize, and close buttons on Windows in windowed mode, with no need for full screen.
- Settings panel: lives under Settings → Plugins → Haavk Relink, where the animation can be disabled or replayed.
- Safety fallback: the page is released if any step fails, and also if the video has not started within 15 seconds.
How to Use This Plugin?
After enabling it in DSH, fully quit the harness (including the tray icon) and reopen it; the boot animation then plays automatically with no config editing. To adjust behavior, open Settings → Plugins → Haavk Relink to disable or replay the animation, or edit the subtitle array in the splash script to change the timeline. If nothing appears after installation, check the plugin's boot log to confirm it loaded and registered its routes.
How to Troubleshoot This Plugin?
If the animation does not appear, first confirm DSH was fully quit — closing the window is not enough, since the plugin reads its configuration at startup. Then check the boot log in the plugin's log directory, which should show the plugin loading and its routes being registered; if the log is missing, follow the official instructions to verify the plugin is included in the current profile's load list.
