Against Claude Cowork, DeepSeek opens its open-source Harness to developers

DeepSeek has opened a developer preview of DeepSeek Harness (dsh), an open-source agent harness positioned against Anthropic's Claude Cowork, providing a web interface for running AI agents with a plugin-based structure. Powered by DeepSeek's Cordis architecture, the project can be launched with `npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web` and is released under the MIT license, though DeepSeek warns the preview may introduce compatibility-breaking changes.
