What it does
Reuses DeepSeek web's built-in vision mode for text-only models: the deepseek_vision tool drives the local deepseek-vision-cli browser automation (manual login helper, deep-think enabled, auto-closes browser) and returns image descriptions as text.
Best for
- Users of text-only DeepSeek models who need descriptions or analysis of local PNG, JPG, WebP, or GIF images.
- DSH Web workflows that can use a locally installed browser-automation CLI and an authenticated DeepSeek web session.
- Low-frequency image-analysis tasks where returning the web vision result as text is sufficient.
Not ideal for
- Sensitive or private images that must remain local; images are uploaded to DeepSeek's web endpoint.
- HEIC inputs, which are explicitly unsupported.
- Stable, high-frequency, or unattended production workflows; the integration relies on an unofficial web interface, browser automation, and a saved login session.
README
dsh-deepseek-vision
A DSH plugin that gives text-only DeepSeek models image recognition.
It registers the deepseek_vision tool, which calls the local
deepseek-vision-cli
(browser automation driving chat.deepseek.com’s vision mode) and returns the
image description as text to the model.
Tool
-
deepseek_vision(image, prompt?)-
image: absolute path to a local image (PNG/JPG/WebP/GIF; HEIC is not supported) -
prompt: optional question or analysis request for the image
-
Installation
dsh plugin --profile web add D:/Dsh/tools/dsh-deepseek-vision
Or use the release tarball:
dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-deepseek-vision-0.0.1.tgz
First login
DeepSeek web vision requires a web login session. The current web UI uses password / third-party login, so the recommended way is the manual login helper:
py -3.13 D:\Dsh\tools\deepseek-vision-cli\dsv_manual_login.py
It opens an Edge window to the DeepSeek login page. After you log in manually,
the helper saves the token to D:\Dsh\.cache\dsv_token.
Token login (alternative)
If you already have a DeepSeek web session in your normal browser, you can copy the token directly:
- Open
https://chat.deepseek.comand log in. - Press
F12→Application→Local Storage→https://chat.deepseek.com. - Find
userToken, copy itsvaluefield. - Save it to
D:\Dsh\.cache\dsv_token(no quotes, no newline):
[IO.File]::WriteAllText(
'D:\Dsh\.cache\dsv_token',
'PASTE_TOKEN_HERE',
(New-Object Text.UTF8Encoding($false))
)
The token is only stored locally in D:\Dsh\.cache\dsv_token; it is never
committed to this repository.
Configuration
Default configuration for this machine:
-
pythonCommand:py -
pythonVersion:-3.13 -
dsvScript:D:/Dsh/tools/deepseek-vision-cli/dsv.py -
timeoutMs:180000 -
maxOutputChars:20000
These can be overridden in a profile patch.
Security notes
- The tool only accepts local file paths and invokes the external CLI through
the DSH
subprocessservice with an argv array, never through a shell. - Images are sent to DeepSeek’s web endpoint; this is not local recognition.
- This relies on non-official web interfaces and may be subject to risk control. Use a secondary account and keep usage low-frequency.
- Static security audit reports
criticalfor spawning a subprocess; this is inherent to wrapping an external CLI. The code has been manually reviewed: it only runs the fixeddsv.py, with no command concatenation or extra exfiltration.
