@npm-safe/dsh-tool-npm-safe

A DeepSeek Harness (dsh) tool plugin that exposes the @npm-safe/core-dsh supply-chain security engine as 14 dsh tools. AI agents can call package security scans directly inside a conversation, acting as a "check before you install" gate.

If this plugin is useful in your workflow, please Star the repository so other DSH users can find it.

Installation

dsh plugin --profile tui add @npm-safe/dsh-tool-npm-safe --allow-build=better-sqlite3
dsh --profile tui

The package declares a DSH bundle and activates cordis.patch.yml automatically. The --allow-build flag grants install-script permission only to the SQLite driver used for the local cache; pnpm continues blocking build scripts from other dependencies. Restart an already-running profile after installation.

Peer Dependencies

This plugin requires the following peer packages (all from the same RC family):

Package	Version
`@deepseek-ai/cordis`	`^4.0.1`
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-tools`	`0.1.0-rc.6`
`@deepseek-ai/dsh-jobs-local`	`0.1.0-rc.6`

Quick Start

Configure a model provider in DSH, then ask the agent to scan a package. A DeepSeek API key is only required when DeepSeek is your selected provider.

dsh --profile tui

Deep-scan fast-glob before installing it. Explain every finding.

Tools

The plugin registers the following 14 tools in a dsh session:

Tool	Purpose	Execution
`check_package`	Check one package; optional `deep` tarball inspection	Foreground (signal-forwarded)
`check_packages`	Check multiple packages; optional `deep` inspection	Foreground (rate-limited)
`search_packages`	Keyword search of the npm registry	Foreground
`watch_add`	Add a package to the watchlist	Foreground
`watch_remove`	Remove a package from the watchlist	Foreground
`watch_list`	List all watched packages	Foreground
`rules_list`	List all scan rules with status	Foreground
`rule_enable`	Enable a scan rule (persisted)	Foreground
`rule_disable`	Disable a scan rule (persisted)	Foreground
`rule_set_severity`	Override a rule's severity (persisted)	Foreground
`settings_get`	Read an engine setting	Foreground
`settings_set`	Write an engine setting (persisted)	Foreground
`ci_scan`	Dependency gate scan; optional `deep` inspection	Foreground
`refresh_all`	Refresh all watched packages	Background (`ctx.jobs.start`)

Usage Examples

Check a single package

> Use check_package to check lodash

[email protected]: safe (85/100, 2 findings)

For higher assurance before installation, ask the agent to set deep: true:

> Deep-scan lodash with check_package before installing it

[email protected]: safe (82/100, 2 findings); deep scan complete, 154 files, integrity verified

Deep mode downloads the published tarball, rejects cross-origin downloads, verifies npm integrity metadata, and inspects bounded source content entirely in memory. It is optional because archive downloads add latency and bandwidth.

Batch check

> Use check_packages to check lodash, express, and axios

lodash: safe (85/100, 2 findings)
express: suspicious (62/100, 5 findings)
axios: safe (90/100, 1 findings)

CI gate scan

> Use ci_scan to scan dependencies

dir: /project
dependencies: 142
fail level: dangerous
failed: false
safe: 130
suspicious: 10
dangerous: 2

Background refresh

> Use refresh_all to refresh all watched packages

Background refresh job started: job-abc123

Engine

This plugin is powered by @npm-safe/core-dsh, a fork of @npm-safe/core re-architected for dsh integration. The engine provides:

10 metadata rules plus 12 deep-content rules for archive integrity, unsafe paths, remote shell execution, obfuscation, process execution, secrets, and binaries
SQLite-backed caching with TTL-based staleness (default 1 hour)
TokenBucket rate limiter (5 tokens/s, 10 burst) to prevent registry throttling
Typed API for programmatic use
