The catalog comes from one `GET /api/v1/skills?node_limit=200` call: the user's own skills first, then those shared under `viking://agent/skills` minus any whose name the user also owns, each description cut to about 40 tokens. Its budget is separate from `profileTokenBudget`. When the descriptions do not fit, the catalog lists names only (with a `... +N more` tail if even the names do not all fit); when not even one name fits, it shrinks to a one-line count; with no skills, or a server without the endpoint, it is omitted.
 - Failed writes enter the shared OpenViking pending queue. A background drainer (default every 60s, `OPENVIKING_PENDING_DRAIN_INTERVAL_MS`) probes the server health and replays the queue in-process, so a transient write failure recovers without restarting dsh; it does not consume the session-start retry budget. Session-start replays keep consuming retries as before.
 - `tools/pre-execute` denies a DSH filesystem tool (`read`, `glob`, `grep`, `edit`, `write`, `str_replace_editor`) whose path argument is a `viking://` URI, pointing the model at the bridged `mcp__openviking__*` tools instead. A `write` or `edit` under a skill directory (`viking://~/skills/...`, `viking://user/<id>/skills/...`, `viking://agent/skills/...`) points at `mcp__openviking__add_skill` instead, which creates or replaces a whole skill from its `SKILL.md` text. A `grep` whose pattern is `viking://` text still runs.
-- `tools/post-execute` lets a `bash` command that carries a `viking://` URI run unchanged and attaches a notice for the model: use the bridged tools if it meant OpenViking content, or ignore the notice when the URI is intentional data such as an `ov` argument or an HTTP payload.
+- `tools/post-execute` lets a `bash` command (`pwsh` on Windows, where DSH mounts it in place of `bash`) that carries a `viking://` URI run unchanged and attaches a notice for the model: use the bridged tools if it meant OpenViking content, or ignore the notice when the URI is intentional data such as an `ov` argument or an HTTP payload.
 
 Each DSH session maps to `dsh-<session-id>` in OpenViking. IDs that contain Windows-invalid path characters are normalized to a readable underscore form plus a stable hash, so two native IDs cannot collapse onto the same OpenViking session; already-portable IDs keep their existing mapping. Existing sessions whose native IDs require normalization start a new OpenViking session after this upgrade. Workspace-derived actor peers are resolved per session and sent on every session-specific request: the peer is the git identity of the session's workspace — the normalized `origin` URL (`git@github.com:volcengine/OpenViking.git` becomes `github.com-volcengine-openviking`), else the repository root path, that fallback keeping the older rule where every non-letter-or-digit character becomes `-`. With the default peer settings, no peer is sent outside a git repository, and what is remembered there goes to the user-level space `viking://user/<you>/memories`. One repository therefore keeps one peer across subdirectories, worktrees, clones and machines, while a fork's different origin keeps it separate. Memories written under the older path-derived peer stay reachable: the default `recallPeerScope: all` sweeps every peer under the user.

+# OpenViking Memory
+
+Long-term memory for DeepSeek Harness, backed by an [OpenViking](https://github.com/volcengine/OpenViking) server. Works in DeepSeek Harness Desktop and in `dsh web`.
+
+- **Recall:** before each step that takes your input, relevant memories are added to the conversation.
+- **Capture:** your messages and the assistant's replies are sent to OpenViking and committed as memories.
+- **Tools and skills:** the model gets the OpenViking tools (`mcp__openviking__search`, `read`, `remember`, `add_skill`, …) and the `openviking-memory`, `openviking-skills` and `ov-experience-memory` skills.
+- **URI protection:** a file tool aimed at a `viking://` path is stopped and pointed at the right OpenViking tool. A `bash` or `pwsh` command that contains one still runs, with a note to the model.
+
+## 1. Connect to your server
+
+Write `~/.openviking/ovcli.conf` with `url` and `api_key` (plus `account` and `user` on a trusted-mode server). A local server at `http://127.0.0.1:1933` without authentication needs nothing. See [Deployment Guide → CLI](https://github.com/volcengine/OpenViking/blob/main/docs/en/guides/03-deployment.md#cli).
+
+Prefer `ovcli.conf` to environment variables in Desktop. On macOS, Desktop reads your login shell's environment once when it starts; on Windows, it uses your user environment. After changing either, fully quit and reopen Desktop.
+
+## 2. Install
+
+**With the installer (macOS):**
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://openviking.ai/install | bash
+```
+
+It needs Node.js 18 or later. It finds Desktop and installs into it as the `dsh-desktop` harness. Open Desktop once beforehand so its profile exists, and quit it with ⌘Q while the installer runs: closing the window only hides it.
+
+**From the Plugins page (manual; macOS, Windows and `dsh web`):** Plugins → Add plugin → enter `@openviking/dsh-memory-plugin` → Install, then turn it on if its switch is off. This only adds the plugin: it does not ask for your OpenViking credentials, so do step 1 first.
+
+**With Desktop's own `dsh` command (macOS):** open Desktop once, quit it with ⌘Q, then run:
+
+```bash
+"/Applications/DeepSeek Harness.app/Contents/Resources/runtime/cli/bin/dsh" plugin --profile desktop add @openviking/dsh-memory-plugin
+```
+
+A `dsh` installed from npm cannot manage the `desktop` profile. After a command-line install, reopen Desktop.
+
+## 3. Check that it works
+
+Open a new conversation. You should see an OpenViking context block near the top, and the model should list `mcp__openviking__*` tools. Ask about something from an earlier conversation to confirm recall.
+
+To check the install from a terminal (with Desktop quit):
+
+```bash
+"/Applications/DeepSeek Harness.app/Contents/Resources/runtime/cli/bin/dsh" plugin --profile desktop ls
+```
+
+## Good to know
+
+- **No settings page.** Configure the plugin through `ovcli.conf` or `OPENVIKING_*` variables. Behavior options can also go in `~/.dsh/profiles/desktop/cordis.patch.yml` under `openviking-memory-runtime`. The recovery dialog's "Disable third-party plugins, back up profile patch, and restart" resets the profile's plugins and moves that file aside, so keep lasting settings in `ovcli.conf`, and enable the plugin again afterwards.
+- **Tool identity.** Automatic recall and capture follow each conversation's project. The OpenViking tools run once per profile, from the profile directory, so with `OPENVIKING_RECALL_PEER_SCOPE=actor` they have no project peer. To give them one, set `actor_peer_id` in `ovcli.conf` or `OPENVIKING_PEER_ID`. That peer also replaces each conversation's project peer for recall and capture, so every conversation shares it.
+- **Skills.** Bundled skills reach agents whose preset includes the skill tool. The `minimal` preset does not, so agents using it do not see them.
+- **Logs.** Desktop shows no plugin output. To debug the OpenViking tools, set `OPENVIKING_DEBUG=1` and `OPENVIKING_DEBUG_LOG=<file>`, then reopen Desktop.
+
+## Uninstall
+
+Plugins → OpenViking Memory → Uninstall. Or, with Desktop quit:
+
+```bash
+"/Applications/DeepSeek Harness.app/Contents/Resources/runtime/cli/bin/dsh" plugin --profile desktop rm @openviking/dsh-memory-plugin

+# OpenViking 记忆
+
+基于 [OpenViking](https://github.com/volcengine/OpenViking) 服务端，为 DeepSeek Harness 提供长期记忆。DeepSeek Harness Desktop 和 `dsh web` 均可使用。
+
+- **召回**：每个带有你输入的步骤开始前，把相关记忆加入对话。
+- **捕获**：把你的消息和助手的回复发送到 OpenViking，并提交为记忆。
+- **工具与技能**：模型可以使用 OpenViking 工具（`mcp__openviking__search`、`read`、`remember`、`add_skill` 等），以及 `openviking-memory`、`openviking-skills`、`ov-experience-memory` 三个技能。
+- **URI 保护**：文件工具指向 `viking://` 路径时会被拦下，并提示改用对应的 OpenViking 工具；`bash` 或 `pwsh` 命令里带 `viking://` URI 时照常执行，只给模型附一条提示。
+
+## 1. 连接服务端
+
+写 `~/.openviking/ovcli.conf`，填 `url` 和 `api_key`（trusted 模式的服务端还要填 `account` 和 `user`）。如果用的是 `http://127.0.0.1:1933` 上无鉴权的本地服务端，这步可以跳过。参见 [部署指南 → CLI](https://github.com/volcengine/OpenViking/blob/main/docs/zh/guides/03-deployment.md#cli)。
+
+在 Desktop 里建议用 `ovcli.conf` 而不是环境变量。macOS 上 Desktop 只在启动时读取一次登录 shell 的环境变量；Windows 上使用用户环境变量。改动后需要彻底退出并重新打开 Desktop。
+
+## 2. 安装
+
+**通过安装器（macOS）**：
+
+```bash
+curl -fsSL https://openviking.ai/install | bash
+```
+
+安装器需要 Node.js 18 或更高版本。它会找到 Desktop，作为 `dsh-desktop` harness 安装进去。运行前先打开一次 Desktop 让它创建 profile，安装期间用 ⌘Q 退出 Desktop：关闭窗口只是把它隐藏起来。
+
+**通过插件页面（手动；macOS、Windows 和 `dsh web`）**：插件 → 添加插件 → 输入 `@openviking/dsh-memory-plugin` → 安装，开关未打开时再打开。这一步只添加插件，不会询问 OpenViking 凭据，所以要先完成第 1 步。
+
+**通过 Desktop 自带的 `dsh` 命令（macOS）**：先打开一次 Desktop，用 ⌘Q 退出，再运行：
+
+```bash
+"/Applications/DeepSeek Harness.app/Contents/Resources/runtime/cli/bin/dsh" plugin --profile desktop add @openviking/dsh-memory-plugin
+```
+
+通过 npm 安装的 `dsh` 无法管理 `desktop` profile。用命令行安装后，重新打开 Desktop。
+
+## 3. 验证
+
+新开一个对话。顶部附近应能看到 OpenViking 上下文块，模型的工具列表里应有 `mcp__openviking__*`。问一件之前对话里的事，确认召回生效。
+
+在终端里检查安装结果（需先退出 Desktop）：
+
+```bash
+"/Applications/DeepSeek Harness.app/Contents/Resources/runtime/cli/bin/dsh" plugin --profile desktop ls
+```
+
+## 注意事项
+
+- **没有设置页面。** 通过 `ovcli.conf` 或 `OPENVIKING_*` 环境变量配置插件。行为参数也可以写进 `~/.dsh/profiles/desktop/cordis.patch.yml` 的 `openviking-memory-runtime` 条目。恢复对话框里的“禁用第三方插件、备份 profile patch 并重启”会重置 profile 的插件，并把这个文件挪作备份，所以长期设置请放在 `ovcli.conf`，恢复后记得重新启用插件。
+- **工具身份。** 自动召回和捕获按每个对话所在的项目区分。OpenViking 工具每个 profile 只启动一次，工作目录是 profile 目录，所以在 `OPENVIKING_RECALL_PEER_SCOPE=actor` 下它们没有项目 peer。需要时在 `ovcli.conf` 里设置 `actor_peer_id`，或设置 `OPENVIKING_PEER_ID`。这个 peer 也会取代每个对话的项目 peer 用于召回和捕获，因此所有对话共用它。
+- **技能。** 内置技能只对预设里带技能工具的 agent 可见。`minimal` 预设不带，用它的 agent 看不到这些技能。
+- **日志。** Desktop 不显示插件输出。要排查 OpenViking 工具，设置 `OPENVIKING_DEBUG=1` 和 `OPENVIKING_DEBUG_LOG=<文件>`，然后重新打开 Desktop。
+
+## 卸载
+
+插件 → OpenViking 记忆 → 卸载。或者在退出 Desktop 后运行：
