docs: tutorial for packaging and installing a plugin bundle

Adds docs/user/develop/basic/publish.md (+ zh pair, website entry) to the
basics path: the bundle-vs-profile manifest split, dsh plugin add into a
profile, the five-layer loading order, and the GitHub-install build-script
catch — git specs ship sources, so the author owns a self-contained prepare
script and the user owns an allowBuilds allowance that is install-time code
execution; built tarballs and npm need neither.

# Package and install a plugin
English | [中文](publish.zh.md)
The previous tutorials loaded a local plugin through a `--patch` overlay. This tutorial packages it as an installable **bundle**, installs it into a **profile** with `dsh plugin add`, and explains the layer order that determines the composed configuration. Complete [plugin configuration](./config.md) first.
## Two concepts, two manifests
Installation is built on two concepts. Both are described by a `package.json`, but they carry different kinds of manifest under the `dsh` key, and they answer different questions:
- A **bundle** is an npm package that ships a configuration layer. Its manifest declares `dsh.bundle`, answering "what does this package contribute?": a patch file that inserts or overrides plugin rows.
- A **profile** is a directory under `$DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>` describing one runnable composition. Its manifest declares `dsh.profile`, answering "which bundles compose this setup, in what order?".
A bundle is what you author and distribute; a profile is what a user boots with `dsh --profile <name>`. Nothing is both.
### The bundle manifest
```
hello-plugin/
├── package.json # declares dsh.bundle
├── cordis.patch.yml # the layer applied when a profile lists this bundle
└── index.js # plugin modules the patch rows reference
```
```json
{
"name": "dsh-hello-plugin",
"version": "0.1.0",
"type": "module",
"main": "index.js",
"files": ["index.js", "cordis.patch.yml"],
"dsh": { "bundle": { "patch": "./cordis.patch.yml" } }
}
```
The patch file has the same shape as the `--patch` overlays you have been writing — a YAML array of patch entries — except plugin rows reference the package by name instead of a relative source path, so Node resolution finds the installed code:
```yaml
- insert:
- id: hello
name: dsh-hello-plugin
```
A package without the `dsh.bundle` declaration still installs, but only as a plain dependency: `dsh plugin` prints a warning and activates no layer. That is the correct shape for a library that plugin packages import rather than a plugin users enable.
### The profile manifest
A profile directory holds two files:
- `package.json` — the profile's out-of-tree plugin dependencies (managed by pnpm) plus the `dsh.profile` manifest with its ordered `bundles` list.
- `cordis.patch.yml` — the user's own patch layer, applied after every bundle layer.
You never write a profile manifest by hand: `dsh plugin` creates and maintains it. The next section shows the result.
## Install into a profile
`dsh plugin --profile <name> <args...>` forwards to pnpm in the profile directory, so every pnpm verb works. Install your package from its checkout:
```sh
cd hello-plugin
dsh plugin --profile demo add .
```
The first use initializes the profile (with `@deepseek-ai/dsh-base` as its first bundle), pnpm links the checkout, and `dsh` appends the bundle to `dsh.profile.bundles` because the package declares `dsh.bundle`:
```json
{
"name": "dsh-profile-demo",
"private": true,
"dependencies": {
"dsh-hello-plugin": "link:/path/to/hello-plugin"
},
"dsh": {
"profile": {
"bundles": [
"@deepseek-ai/dsh-base",
"dsh-hello-plugin"
]
}
}
}
```
Verify the layer without booting, then boot:
```sh
dsh --profile demo --dump-config # shows a "# == dsh-hello-plugin" layer
dsh --profile demo
```
`dsh plugin --profile demo remove dsh-hello-plugin` removes both the dependency and the layer.
## The loading order
The effective configuration composes over an empty root by applying, in order:
1. Each bundle patch named in the profile's `dsh.profile.bundles` list, in list order — `@deepseek-ai/dsh-base` first, then each installed bundle in the order it was added.
2. The profile's own `cordis.patch.yml`.
3. The home-level `$DSH_HOME/cordis.patch.yml` — machine-local preferences shared by every profile.
4. Each `--patch <path>` overlay, in argv order.
5. Launcher flag patches (for example `dsh web --port`).
Later layers win per row, and a patch replaces a row's entire `config` value rather than deep-merging keys. Two consequences for bundle authors:
- Your patch can override rows from earlier layers by `id` — the same way [the `dsh-web-app` bundle](../../../../packages/bundle/web-app/cordis.patch.yml) overrides `dsh-base` rows — but must restate every key the row needs, not just the changed one.
- Users can override your rows in their profile's `cordis.patch.yml` without touching your package, so prefer configuration defaults users are likely to keep and let the schema carry the rest.
In-box bundle names always resolve from the dsh installation itself; pnpm manages only out-of-tree packages, so your bundle can rely on `@deepseek-ai/dsh-base` being present and current.
## Installing from GitHub: the build-script catch
Publishing to a registry is not required — users can install straight from a git host:
```sh
dsh plugin --profile demo add github:you/hello-plugin
```
But a git install fetches **sources, not built artifacts**: nothing runs your `build` script, so a TypeScript package arrives without its `lib/` output and fails to load. Two things must happen, one on each side:
- **The author** ships a `prepare` script — pnpm runs it after a git install — that builds the published entry points from source, self-contained: it must not assume dev-only context such as a sibling monorepo checkout. [turtle-ui](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/turtle-ui) is a working example: its `prepare` runs a dedicated tsdown config that transpiles `src/` without project references or type checking.
- **The user** allowlists the build. pnpm ≥10 refuses to run a git dependency's `prepare` script until it is explicitly allowed, so the first `add` fails; `dsh` points at the fix — copy the exact package key pnpm printed into the profile's `pnpm-workspace.yaml`:
```yaml
allowBuilds:
dsh-hello-plugin: true
```
and re-run the `add`.
Treat that allowance as what it is: **permission to execute the package's code on your machine at install time**, outside any sandbox the agent runs under. Only allow packages whose source you trust, and pin a commit (`github:you/hello-plugin#<sha>`) so a later push cannot silently change what runs.
If you would rather not ask users for the allowance, distribute built artifacts instead — neither form needs any build permission:
- **Publish to npm** with `lib/` built at `pnpm publish` time; `dsh plugin add your-package` then installs prebuilt code.
- **Ship a tarball** from `pnpm pack`; users run `dsh plugin add ./hello-plugin-0.1.0.tgz`.

# 打包与安装插件
[English](publish.md) | 中文
前几篇教程通过 `--patch` overlay 加载本地插件。本教程把它打包成可安装的**组合包**(bundle),用 `dsh plugin add` 安装进一个 **profile**,并解释决定组合后配置的层顺序。请先完成[插件配置](./config.md)。
## 两个概念,两种 manifest
安装机制建立在两个概念之上。二者都由一份 `package.json` 描述,但它们在 `dsh` 键下携带的 manifest(元数据清单)种类不同,回答的问题也不同:
- **组合包**是附带一个配置层的 npm 包。它的 manifest 声明 `dsh.bundle`,回答的是"这个包贡献什么?":一个插入或覆盖插件行的 patch 文件。
- **profile** 是位于 `$DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>` 下、描述一份可启动组合的目录。它的 manifest 声明 `dsh.profile`,回答的是"这套配置由哪些组合包按什么顺序组成?"。
组合包是你编写并分发的东西;profile 是用户用 `dsh --profile <name>` 启动的东西。没有东西同时是两者。
### 组合包 manifest
```
hello-plugin/
├── package.json # declares dsh.bundle
├── cordis.patch.yml # the layer applied when a profile lists this bundle
└── index.js # plugin modules the patch rows reference
```
```json
{
"name": "dsh-hello-plugin",
"version": "0.1.0",
"type": "module",
"main": "index.js",
"files": ["index.js", "cordis.patch.yml"],
"dsh": { "bundle": { "patch": "./cordis.patch.yml" } }
}
```
patch 文件的形状与你一直在写的 `--patch` overlay 相同——一个 patch 条目的 YAML 数组——只是插件行按包名而不是相对源码路径引用这个包,这样 Node 的模块解析才能找到已安装的代码:
```yaml
- insert:
- id: hello
name: dsh-hello-plugin
```
没有 `dsh.bundle` 声明的包仍然可以安装,但只作为普通依赖:`dsh plugin` 会打印警告,且不激活任何层。这正是"供插件包 import 的库"应有的形状,区别于"供用户启用的插件"。
### profile manifest
profile 目录包含两个文件:
- `package.json` — profile 的树外插件依赖(由 pnpm 管理),加上 `dsh.profile` manifest 及其有序的 `bundles` 列表。
- `cordis.patch.yml` — 用户自己的 patch 层,在每个组合包层之后应用。
profile manifest 从不需要手写:`dsh plugin` 负责创建和维护它。下一节展示其结果。
## 安装进 profile
`dsh plugin --profile <name> <args...>` 在 profile 目录内转发给 pnpm,因此所有 pnpm 子命令都可用。从 checkout 安装你的包:
```sh
cd hello-plugin
dsh plugin --profile demo add .
```
首次使用会初始化 profile`@deepseek-ai/dsh-base` 作为它的第一个组合包),pnpm 链接该 checkout,而 `dsh` 因为这个包声明了 `dsh.bundle`,把它追加进 `dsh.profile.bundles`
```json
{
"name": "dsh-profile-demo",
"private": true,
"dependencies": {
"dsh-hello-plugin": "link:/path/to/hello-plugin"
},
"dsh": {
"profile": {
"bundles": [
"@deepseek-ai/dsh-base",
"dsh-hello-plugin"
]
}
}
}
```
先不启动、只验证该层,再启动:
```sh
dsh --profile demo --dump-config # shows a "# == dsh-hello-plugin" layer
dsh --profile demo
```
`dsh plugin --profile demo remove dsh-hello-plugin` 会同时移除依赖和对应的层。
## 加载顺序
生效配置在空根之上按以下顺序逐层组合:
1. profile 的 `dsh.profile.bundles` 列表所列的各个组合包 patch,按列表顺序——先是 `@deepseek-ai/dsh-base`,然后是每个已安装组合包,按其加入顺序。
2. profile 自己的 `cordis.patch.yml`
3. home 级的 `$DSH_HOME/cordis.patch.yml`——各 profile 共享的机器本地偏好。
4. 每个 `--patch <path>` overlay,按 argv 顺序。
5. 启动器 flag patch(例如 `dsh web --port`)。
后应用的层按行胜出,且 patch 会替换目标行的整个 `config` 值,而不是深度合并各键。这给组合包作者带来两个推论:
- 你的 patch 可以按 `id` 覆盖前面各层的行——就像 [`dsh-web-app` 组合包](../../../../packages/bundle/web-app/cordis.patch.yml)覆盖 `dsh-base` 的行那样——但必须重述该行需要的每一个键,而不是只写改动的那个。
- 用户可以在自己 profile 的 `cordis.patch.yml` 中覆盖你的行,无需改动你的包,所以优先给出用户大概率会保留的配置默认值,其余交给 schema 承担。
内置组合包名称始终从 dsh 安装目录本身解析;pnpm 只管理树外的包,所以你的组合包可以放心依赖 `@deepseek-ai/dsh-base` 存在且与安装保持一致。
## 从 GitHub 安装:构建脚本这道坎
发布到注册表不是必须的——用户可以直接从 git 托管安装:
```sh
dsh plugin --profile demo add github:you/hello-plugin
```
但 git 安装拉取的是**源码,不是构建产物**:没有任何环节运行你的 `build` 脚本,因此 TypeScript 包到手时没有 `lib/` 输出,加载会失败。必须两边各做一件事:
- **作者**提供一个 `prepare` 脚本——pnpm 在 git 安装后运行它——从源码构建出发布入口,且必须自包含:不能假设仅开发环境才有的上下文,例如旁边有一份 monorepo checkout。[turtle-ui](https://github.com/deepseek-harness/turtle-ui) 是一个可用的例子:它的 `prepare` 运行一份专用的 tsdown 配置,直接转译 `src/`,不用项目引用,也不做类型检查。
- **用户**为构建授权。pnpm ≥10 在得到显式允许之前拒绝运行 git 依赖的 `prepare` 脚本,所以第一次 `add` 会失败;`dsh` 会指出修法——把 pnpm 打印的确切包键复制进该 profile 的 `pnpm-workspace.yaml`
```yaml
allowBuilds:
dsh-hello-plugin: true
```
然后重新执行 `add`。
请如实看待这项授权:**允许该包的代码在安装时于你的机器上执行**,且不在 agent 运行的任何沙箱之内。只对源码可信的包授权,并锁定 commit(`github:you/hello-plugin#<sha>`),让后续推送无法悄悄改变实际运行的内容。
如果不想让用户做这项授权,就改为分发构建产物——以下两种形式都不需要任何构建权限:
- **发布到 npm**,在 `pnpm publish` 时构建好 `lib/``dsh plugin add your-package` 安装的就是预构建代码。
- **交付 tarball**:用 `pnpm pack` 打包;用户执行 `dsh plugin add ./hello-plugin-0.1.0.tgz`。
