dsh-plugin-translation
A translation toolkit for DeepSeek Harness agents: chunking, glossary extraction, source–target QA, tone guides, and a durable translation memory. The model translates; the plugin chunks, checks, and remembers.
Install
dsh plugin --profile <profile> add dsh-plugin-translationRestart DSH. The translate_kit tool is registered host-wide.

Design
Pure logic (lib/translation.js) has zero DSH/Cordis imports and is unit-tested in isolation; lib/index.js is the thin Cordis plugin. Memory access goes through ctx.fs and every resolved path is containment-checked against the session workspace.
