Access and checks

How we review

Extended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.

  • The plugin reads local session directories of other agents and can move a source file to the Recycle Bin when the user asks.

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

DSH Chat Import, a plugin for DeepSeek Harness (DSH), discovers local sessions of other agents and turns them into DSH sessions. The README lists the sources: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Goose, Cursor, Cline, Copilot, ChatGPT and many more. A file from an unknown source goes through the `local-jsonl` format. Import starts from the Import sessions button in the sidebar or from an agent calling `import_chat`. A list row opens as a read-only preview, rows can be searched by title or message text, and unwanted sessions can be hidden. The reverse direction exists too: DSH sessions serialize into other agents' formats.

Who it is for. DeepSeek Harness users moving over from Claude Code, Codex or Cursor who do not want to lose the context built up in earlier conversations.

Good fit when

  • Old Claude Code conversations need to open in DSH and continue from the same point.
  • You want to inspect a session in preview mode before importing it.
  • A ChatGPT export sits in `conversations.json` and the conversation must go on in DSH.
  • One session has to land in a specific workspace of the left sidebar.

Not a fit when

  • You work without DeepSeek Harness: the plugin installs only into it.
  • You need to migrate skills, hooks and global settings. The README names a separate `dsh-movein` for that.
  • The history holds private data that must not be copied into other sessions.

Example request

List the discovered Claude Code sessions and import the selected one into the current project workspace.

Limitations

It needs dsh 0.1.5-rc.1 or newer. Verification covered the 0.1.x and 0.2.x lines, and dsh-tools must satisfy `>=0.1.0-rc.6 <0.3.0`. The plugin reads local session files of other agents, for example from `~/.claude/projects`, and sees the full text of conversations. A timestamp inside a truncated Codex transcript record can be missed. A Claude Code fork session opens with a copy of its parent's history, so the parent and the fork overlap on one stretch.

How to disable. Remove the plugin with DSH tooling. Imported sessions stay: delete them from the History tab or manually. The plugin tools can also be switched off in settings without removing it.

FAQ

Which sources does import understand?

The README list is long: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Goose, Cursor, Cline, Copilot, ChatGPT, Qwen and more. A file from another source goes through Import from file; if no parser fits, the plugin shows why and points to a conversion skill.

How do I start an import from an agent?

Call `import_chat` with a format and a path, for example `import_chat({ format: "claude", path: "~/.claude/projects" })`.

Can an import be undone?

Yes. The History tab lists the sessions the plugin created, and they can be deleted.

How many tokens do the plugin tools take?

By default their descriptions are injected into context. Settings switch them to not injected or to partial injection, which saves a fair number of tokens.

What if I need settings rather than history?

Use `dsh-movein`: the README names it for migrating skills, hooks and global settings.
