KolmoPDF tools for DeepSeek Harness: high-fidelity PDF→Markdown parsing, layout-preserving PDF translation, Markdown conversion, credit estimates, and balance checks.

Repository: https://github.com/komoai2026/dsh-kolmopdf

Features

Tool	Capability
kolmopdf_parse_pdf	PDF → Markdown, optional translation, formulas, tables, images, enrichment sidecars
kolmopdf_translate_pdf	Layout-preserving PDF translation (translated-only or side-by-side)
kolmopdf_convert_markdown	Markdown/ZIP → DOCX, HTML, PDF, LaTeX
kolmopdf_estimate_cost	Local page-count + balance estimate (does not spend credits)
kolmopdf_check_balance	Current credit balance
kolmopdf_get_task_status	Inspect a task by id

• The GUI stores the API key through DSH credentials (KOLMOPDF_API_KEY). The value never rides settings describe responses.
• Settings → KolmoPDF is a dedicated settings page (configured / missing, save, clear).
• Tools check the key lazily. A missing key tells the user to open Settings or run the CLI.
• KOLMOPDF_API_KEY in the process environment is also accepted. An env key shadows the GUI credential and makes the settings page read-only.
• HTTP upload, poll, download, and ZIP extract honor the tool abort signal.

Requirements

• Node.js >= 20
• DeepSeek Harness 0.1.0-rc.6 compatible
• KolmoPDF Plus or Pro account
• An API key from https://www.kolmopdf.com/api-keys

Install

Install the package into the DSH profile you use (example: web). GitHub is the recommended path:

# From GitHub (recommended; no npm publish required)
dsh plugin --profile web add github:komoai2026/dsh-kolmopdf

# Equivalent
dsh plugin --profile web add https://github.com/komoai2026/dsh-kolmopdf.git

This is a git dependency that ships prebuilt lib/ (no prepare script, so dsh plugin add does not hit pnpm allowBuilds). The package also declares dsh.bundle, so dsh plugin add appends kolmopdf to the profile's dsh.profile.bundles and the plugin mounts on the next start — settings page and tools appear without a hand-written composition row.

Host packages such as @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools are peer dependencies (same pattern as dsh-ads). They must resolve to the running Harness copy. Shipping a second copy inside this plugin makes every tool call fail with Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'prepare').

Other install sources:

# After the npm package is published
dsh plugin --profile web add kolmopdf

# Local checkout
dsh plugin --profile web add D:/code/dsh-zhiyipdf

dsh plugin add already activates the bundle layer. Only add a host-plane row yourself if you installed the package some other way:

- insert:
    - id: kolmopdf
      name: kolmopdf

See examples/cordis.patch.yml and the package-root cordis.patch.yml.

Restart the profile:

dsh web

dsh plugin ... add installs the dependency and, because this package declares dsh.bundle, joins the profile layer stack. A plain pnpm add without dsh plugin does not.

Configure the API key

Option 1: Web Settings (recommended)

In the DeepSeek Harness Web GUI:

1. Open Settings.
2. Open the KolmoPDF section.
3. Enter the API key and save.

The page writes the key into the DSH credential store ($DSH_HOME/.credentials.yaml, reference KOLMOPDF_API_KEY). It does not go through the settings-document allowlist. If KOLMOPDF_API_KEY is already in the process environment, the page is read-only (env wins and cannot be overwritten).

A missing key does not prevent the plugin from starting. The first authenticated tool call returns an actionable prompt.

Option 2: CLI

After install, run the CLI through DeepSeek Harness so it resolves from the profile (a bare kolmopdf is not on PATH):

dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config set-key

This reads the key with a masked prompt and writes kolmopdf.apiKey in $DSH_HOME/settings.yaml (default ~/.dsh/settings.yaml).

# Non-interactive (lands in shell history; not recommended)
dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config set-key sk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

# Scripts / CI: read from stdin
printf '%s' "$KOLMOPDF_API_KEY" | dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config set-key

# Status (never prints the key)
dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config status

# Settings file path
dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config path

# Clear the stored key
dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config clear-key

# Custom settings file
dsh plugin --profile web exec kolmopdf -- config set-key --file D:/path/to/settings.yaml

The CLI preserves YAML comments, uses the same <file>.lock writer lock and atomic replace as DSH (@deepseek-ai/dsh-atomic-write), and sets owner-only permissions (0600; Windows still uses ACLs). A running DSH with file watch enabled hot-reloads the change.

Option 3: Environment variable

export KOLMOPDF_API_KEY=sk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

PowerShell:

$env:KOLMOPDF_API_KEY = 'sk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
dsh web

Set the variable before starting DSH. You can change the name with apiKeyEnv in the composition.

Resolution order: CLI settings.apiKey → credential / environment (KOLMOPDF_API_KEY).

Optional config

Composition config is the base layer; the user settings document still overrides it:

- insert:
    - id: kolmopdf
      name: kolmopdf
      config:
        outputDir: ./kolmopdf-output
        pollIntervalMs: 2000
        maxPollMinutes: 30
        httpTimeoutMs: 60000
        uploadTimeoutMs: 600000

Field	Default	Notes
apiKey	unset	Secret. Prefer GUI credentials or CLI; do not commit this
apiKeyEnv	KOLMOPDF_API_KEY	Environment / credential reference name
baseUrl	https://www.kolmopdf.com	KolmoPDF API origin
outputDir	./kolmopdf-output	Result directory (relative to DSH cwd)
pollIntervalMs	2000	Status poll interval
maxPollMinutes	30	Maximum poll duration
httpTimeoutMs	60000	Ordinary HTTP timeout
uploadTimeoutMs	600000	Upload / download timeout

Development

corepack enable pnpm
pnpm install
pnpm check

pnpm check runs TypeScript, Vitest, and the production build.

Security

• Do not put a real API key in the repo, README, screenshots, or issues.
• The Web credentials API reports only configured / writable state, never the secret.
• The CLI status command only prints configured / not configured.
• Tools read local PDF/Markdown/ZIP paths from the model and write under outputDir. Enable this plugin only in a trusted composition.
• Output directories are checked with realpath so output_subdir and symlinks cannot escape outputDir.
• ZIP extraction rejects absolute paths and ../ entries. Caps: 10,000 entries, 4 GiB uncompressed, 2 GiB download.
• Inputs are capped at 300 MB and 800 pages (same as the KolmoPDF service) and validated locally before upload.
