dsh-web-search-tavily
Tavily-backed web search provider for DeepSeek Harness.
It registers a tavily provider on ctx.web, can replace the native web_search backend, and adds a Settings → Plugins card for:
- API key management (via DSH credentials)
- toggling whether Tavily replaces DeepSeek native search

What it changes
| Aspect | Effect |
|---|---|
| Tool name | Still native web_search |
| Backend | Switches to Tavily when enabled |
| Settings UI | Adds a Plugins card under namespace tavily-search |
| Persistence | Survives restart via profile bundle patch |
Bundle patch
The package ships cordis.patch.yml through dsh.bundle.patch, so dsh plugin add mounts:
web.searchProvider: tavily- Host plugin row
web-search-tavily
No manual cordis.patch.yml editing is required for a clean install.
If you previously mounted a local/dev copy manually, remove the old local mount lines first to avoid double registration.
