Embeds a DeepSeek Harness (DSH) chat panel in the Zotero item pane and adds Send to DSH and Ask DSH buttons to the text selection popup in the reader.
Zotero DSH has Atlas grade B (use with care) because updates are set to come from an address someone else could control, and 1 more finding. It works with Zotero 7–10, 11 beta. Last checked 6 Nov 2026.
Downloads a .xpi file (0.02 MB). In Zotero, open Tools → Plugins and install it from the file.
In useAn estimate of how many copies of Zotero have it: Zotero downloads each new version once for every copy that has the plugin, so we count the downloads of its most-downloaded recent release. Rounded. Plugins that update from outside GitHub count low.
35
DownloadsAll-time downloads of its release files from GitHub, counting every update. Installs from elsewhere aren't counted.
43
ReleasesVersions published on GitHub. Everyone who has the plugin downloads each one again, which adds up in Downloads.

Code transparencyUpdates are set to come from an address someone else could controlThe developer uploaded the release file from the toustifer account. We haven't yet checked whether this file matches the public source code.MediumMedium concern: worth reading before you install. One medium finding makes the grade B.
Updates
Updates are set to come from Fisfzy/zotero-dsh on GitHub, which doesn't exist or isn't public: if the owner of "Fisfzy" published an update there, Zotero would install itThe update address is broken (nothing is there), so Zotero can't update it
