Overview

DSHA is an Android APK (Java, arm64-v8a, Android 11+) that bundles an offline Ubuntu 24.04 rootfs with Node.js 24 and DeepSeek Harness 0.2.2-rc.1, run through proot or optionally proroot. It serves the harness Web UI and adds a local bridge on 127.0.0.1:3090 so the agent can read the screen, tap and run device commands via accessibility, ADB, Shizuku or root. It also ships a PTY terminal, plugin manager, backups and a LAN proxy.

Who it is for: Android users who want DeepSeek Harness on a phone with device control

Strengths

  • Offline Ubuntu rootfs in the APK: apt, PTY and native modules work without Termux
  • Accessibility-based screen control needs no ADB, Shizuku or root
  • Built-in wireless ADB pairing; one command whitelist shared by ADB, Shizuku and root
  • Scheduled backups, startup diagnostics and a separate emergency DSH environment

Weaknesses

  • APK is about 302 MiB because the full Ubuntu environment is bundled
  • arm64-v8a only; Android 10 and below are unsupported
  • No bash sandbox isolation; default permission mode is danger-full-access
  • Virtual screen and privileged execution are experimental and device-dependent

What it needs

  • no GPU
  • Needs deepseek-harness (@deepseek-ai/dsh), proot / proroot, Shizuku or Stellar (optional)
  • Models: Provider, model and API key configured in the harness Web UI
