# dsh-thinking-levels — DeepSeek Harness plugin install manifest

> Generated: 2026-09-17 03:56 · Source: https://deepseekmodel.com/plugins

## Overview

Per-round thinking-level (reasoning_effort) control for DeepSeek Harness: pick Auto and it schedules low/high/max from the recent tool-call history, or fix a wire level (off/on/minimal/low/medium/high/xhigh/max) manually, with custom wire mapping, a model-aware capability guard, and context-window presets (64K–1M); its per-model capability card pairs with a separate plugin, [dsh-llm-openai-completions](https://github.com/drscrewdriver/dsh-llm-openai-completions) (installable from dsh-market), so custom OpenAI-compatible gateways (vLLM / LM Studio / self-hosted) can try reasoning — the card writes llm-pi-ai capabilities, the adapter drives the wire (compat.thinkingFormat), and this plugin auto-maintains the takeover list.

## Audit before installing

Plugins run with your dsh process permissions and may execute code during installation. Read the repository source and license first, check for destructive commands or excessive access, and pin a commit hash for reproducible installs. This manifest is compiled by DeepseekModel from a public plugin catalog for reference only and does not vouch for third-party plugins.
