Codebase-native delivery for DeepSeek Harness: stages, handoffs, and a weekly that writes itself

A developer released dsh-delivery-board, a skill-backed plugin for the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) that stores delivery state directly in the codebase so humans and agents share one source of truth. The plugin provides a /delivery skill for plain-language board operations, a /delivery-admin set of deterministic controls, an editable drag-and-drop board served on 127.0.0.1, and templates for ToB and governance pipelines with checkable checklist gates that warn on WIP limits but never block moves. It targets dsh engines >=0.2.0-rc.2 <0.3.0 and installs via the web profile.

If you ship ToB or agency work, you already know the Friday ritual: dig through chats and sheets for "what moved," "who owns it," and "what slipped." The model in your IDE sees the repo; your board lives somewhere else. Alignment dies in the gap.

I wanted the opposite: delivery context as a first-class citizen of the codebase. Humans and agents share one source of truth. Views (board, audit, weekly) are projections — not another product to keep in sync.

That's what dsh-delivery-board is: a skill-backed DeepSeek Harness (dsh) plugin.

wipLimit. Board and move responses warn when a stage is over; moves are never blocked./delivery Open the editable board serves a drag-and-drop UI on 127.0.0.1 that saves back to the same state. Offline HTML snapshot for teammates without DSH. Install (web profile):

dsh plugin --profile web add github:jerryxff26-alt/dsh-delivery-board

Compatible with DSH engines.dsh >=0.2.0-rc.2 <0.3.0 (smoke path: 0.2.1-rc.2). Listed in awesome-dsh-plugin.

Normal path is the /delivery skill: ask for outcomes in plain language; the model reasons, tools persist.

/delivery Initialize a governance delivery board for ACME
/delivery Hand off the API card to Test, assign Morgan
/delivery Open the editable board
/delivery Prepare the client weekly report for the week starting 2026-10-20

Deterministic controls (no model) live under /delivery-admin so they don't intercept skill prompts.

Templates cover a ToB pipeline (Client Requirements → … → Live) and a governance pipeline (Plan → … → Live). Gates are checkable checklists stored in state — they do not hard-block moves.

v0.1.5 deliberately fused only two lightweight ideas:

What we did not build: Timeline views, Gantt, hard DoR gates, Dual Track ceremony. Stay usable in-repo, not another SaaS.

Feedback from people who run real BA → TL → build → test → go-live handoffs is especially welcome.
