How to Add Community Plugins to Your DeepSeek Agent

Hunting for plugins for your DeepSeek coding agent usually means digging through repos and wiring each one in by hand. Now your agent can search a curated community list and install what it finds on its own.

You add the list once, and from then on the agent does the looking and the installing, with a single command doing the actual work.

What You Need

• A DeepSeek coding agent with the dsh command available.

Tutorial

1. Add the curated community list as an index source in your harness. Once it is in, the harness searches that list for you instead of you hunting through repos yourself.
2. Browse the community plugins the index returns. Every entry on the list installs the same way, with one dsh plugin add.
3. Install your pick with dsh plugin add. The same entries then show up in Plugins, Discover, and the agent tool, so you can manage them from whichever one you already have open.

Wrapping Up

You now have the community list wired in as an index source, which means the agent can search it and install whatever you choose without you leaving the conversation. Next time you need a plugin, try asking the agent to find one first.
