dsh-transparent-ui-plugin: Frosted Glass Look for the DeepSeek Harness Web UI
wyh66666666/dsh-transparent-ui-plugin
A highly customizable glassmorphism theme for the DeepSeek Harness web UI: header, sidebar, composer and trajectory view become frosted glass, with adjustable blur, frost and fluid or custom wallpaper backdrops — flip one switch and the stock UI returns untouched.
dsh-transparent-ui-plugin is a glassmorphism theme layered over the DeepSeek Harness web UI, turning the header, sidebar, composer, stats line, and trajectory view into panes of frosted glass. It addresses a fixed, non-customizable interface by letting you tune glass blur, frost, and backdrop from a settings card. The plugin offers Mica and Compatibility modes, a fluid board or your own wallpaper, plus a particle whale and edge fades; switching it off restores the stock UI exactly without changing a single line of DSH source.
How to Install
dsh plugin --profile <your-profile> add dsh-client-ui-aquaReplace --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.

What Does It Do?
Aqua is a DSH plugin for DeepSeek Harness that turns the web UI into panes of frosted glass, covering the header, sidebar, composer, stats line, and trajectory view. It solves the problem of a fixed, unadjustable interface look: you can tune glass blur, frost, and backdrop from a settings card without changing a single line of DSH source. It is maintained by WYH66666666 under the AGPL-3.0 license and was last updated in 2026-08.
Core Features
- Two modes: Mica restyles the layout into floating glass cards with adjustable blur and frost, while Compatibility Mode keeps the stock layout byte-for-byte and only swaps the material, so other plugins' UI gets the same treatment automatically.
- Free backdrop: a living fluid board with adjustable hue, or your own wallpaper filling the page with aspect preserved and its own blur and frost controls.
- Background brightness: follows the resolved scheme, darkening in dark mode and brightening in light mode, with the midpoint leaving it unchanged.
- Particle whale: a 2D port of the site's particle engine, centered in the chat area right of the sidebar, white on dark and gray on light, toggleable in settings.
- Edge fades: 5px gradient blur bands pinned to the top and bottom of the page, so scrolling content melts into the edges.
- One switch: turning it off restores the stock UI exactly, and every effect is removed with the plugin.
How to Use This Plugin?
After enabling it in DSH and reloading the web UI, the theme is on by default. The master switch lives in Settings → Plugins → Glass theme, shaped like the other plugin cards, while every other control sits under Settings → General → Appearance: mode, blur and frost, fluid color, background brightness, backdrop choice with its wallpaper controls, and the particle-whale toggle. With the master switch off, the whole control block under Appearance is hidden.
How to Troubleshoot This Plugin?
The README warns that because DSH has been updated, the author cannot promptly follow the new APIs due to academic commitments, so installing this plugin may cause crashes. In that case, follow the official guidance to replace it with an alternative agent or repair it yourself, rather than installing it and hitting a crash.
