 ## 📰 News
 
+### 0.5.0 Preview · Feature Demos
+
+This update also adds unified local pagination, resumable long-text reads and message/tool search, rechecks source switches on every read, and moves non-local tools to external_reference_list/read. See the [release and migration guide](./docs/release-v0.5.0.md). Version 0.5.0 is not yet published.
+
+#### Import Past Conversations into DSH and Pick Up Where You Left Off
+
+Want to continue an existing local session without copying and pasting chat logs or treating old threads purely as static context?
+
+Now, when you find a local session in the `@` menu, you have two ways to use it:
+- **Reference as context (`Enter`)**: Insert the session directly as a reference;
+- **Import and continue chatting (`Tab`)**: Open the action menu, select **Import**, and confirm to bring the entire conversation history into DSH and keep chatting seamlessly! (Prefer a faster workflow? You can disable the confirmation prompt in Settings.)
+
+> 💡 **Note**: Importing requires `dsh-chat-import` v0.26.1 or a compatible newer version to be installed and enabled.
+
+![Press Enter to reference a session, or Tab to open the action menu and import history; uses mock data.](./release-notes/0.5.0/demos/agent-import.gif)
+
+#### One-Click Upgrade for `dsh-chat-import` Right from the Menu
+
+If an outdated version of `dsh-chat-import` prevents you from using chat import or handoff summaries, you no longer need to update it manually.
+
+Simply click the **upgrade prompt** right inside the menu to update to v0.26.1 or later. If prompted after the upgrade, restart DSH to apply the changes.
+
+![Upgrade dsh-chat-import from the menu and view the simulated restart prompt in settings.](./release-notes/0.5.0/demos/chat-import-upgrade.gif)
+
+#### Type `@plugin:` to Reference Installed Plugins Directly
+
+Want your Agent to troubleshoot a plugin issue or inspect its source code? Digging through deep system folders just to find the installation path is a hassle.
+
+Now you can simply type `@plugin:`, search for the plugin name, and press `Enter` to pass its installation directory straight to the Agent (supports all plugins currently installed in your DSH environment).
+
+![Filter local plugins in the @plugin: menu and press Enter to insert the plugin directory reference.](./release-notes/0.5.0/demos/local-plugins.gif)
+
+#### Custom Shortcuts to Narrow Down Your Search Scope Instantly
+
+Tired of scrolling through a cluttered `@` menu full of files, folders, and different sources just to find a past conversation?
+
+You can now assign **custom shortcuts** to different chat sources in Settings (multiple shortcuts can be separated by commas), allowing you to filter by category and narrow down your search scope right as you type:
+- **Search across a combined group**: Not sure where a conversation happened? Assign the same shortcut (e.g., `chat`) to both Local Agents and Web Chats, then type `@chat:` to narrow your search exclusively to those sources;
+- **Target a specific source**: When you know exactly where to look, use a dedicated shortcut like `@codex:` to filter exclusively for Codex sessions.
+
+![Configure shared shortcuts in settings, then search sessions using both shared and source-specific shortcuts.](./release-notes/0.5.0/demos/shortcuts.gif)
+
+#### Browse Folders Directly in the `@` Menu — No Need to Type Full Paths
+
+Want to reference a deeply nested folder without memorizing or typing out its full path?
+
+You can now navigate folder hierarchies directly inside the `@` file menu:
+- **Open subfolder**: Select a folder and press `Tab` to step inside;
+- **Go back**: Use the breadcrumb navigation bar at the top of the menu;
+- **Insert reference**: Press `Enter` on your target folder to insert it directly into your chat.

During plugin loading, DSH now requires every strict `agentSearch` registration codec to provide a `create()` validator factory; v0.4.1 supplied only validation rules, so DSH rejected the plugin before search could run. This release adds the required factory and fixes command icon sizing plus bilingual command labels in the native picker.

 ## 📦 Installation
 
-Prerequisites:
+The released version is **v0.5.0**, with a declared minimum DSH SDK version of **`0.2.0-rc.2`**.
 
-- `dsh` is installed and running; automatic OpenCLI installation requires the `npm` bundled with Node.js.
-- The target platforms are already logged in under the selected Chrome Profile.
+### Official desktop app
 
-Install the stable `0.3.x` line for the current stable DSH SDK:
+Download the official desktop app from the [DeepSeek Harness website](https://www.deepseek.com/en/harness/), open **Plugins → Add plugin**, enter `dsh-reference-anything`, and follow the prompts to install and enable it. Restart DSH if asked, then open **Settings → Reference Anything**.
 
-```powershell
-dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-reference-anything@latest
-```
+Desktop uses a separate plugin profile; plugins installed in the Web profile are not automatically enabled in Desktop. See the [official desktop documentation](https://github.com/deepseek-ai/deepseek-harness/blob/master/apps/desktop/README.md).
 
-Install `v0.4.3` on DSH `>=0.2.0-rc.2`:
+### DSH Market
+
+Open [Reference Anything on DSH Market](https://dshmarket.com/p/Chael-Chael/dsh-reference-anything/), or search for `dsh-reference-anything` in the in-app market. If the market is not installed, use **Add plugin** with `dshmarket` in Desktop; for Web, run:
 
 ```powershell
-dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-reference-anything@alpha
+dsh plugin --profile web add dshmarket
 ```
 
-After the DSH alpha API stabilizes and the migration is verified, the `alpha` line will be promoted to `latest` and become the default installation.
-
-To install the stable source locally with DSH `v0.1.0-rc.8 ~ v0.1.1-rc.2`:
+### Web CLI
 
 ```powershell
-git switch main
-pnpm install
-npm run check
-dsh plugin --profile web add .
+dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-reference-anything
 ```
 
-To install the alpha source locally with DSH `v0.2.0-rc.2` or newer:
+The installed version depends on the selected channel; this README describes v0.5.0.
 
-```powershell
-git switch alpha
-pnpm install
-npm run check
-dsh plugin --profile web add .
-```
+### Optional: Connect web AI chats
 
-> [!NOTE]
-> To restore DSH's original `@` menu appearance, simply uninstall this plugin.
+Only web chats need this step. Local sources work without it. Sign into the desired platforms in your browser. OpenCLI is installed with this plugin; adapter setup still needs npm.
 
-After installing the DSH plugin, open `Settings → Reference Anything → Availability check` in DSH Web (restart DSH first if this settings entry is not yet visible), then click **One-click setup**. It discovers OpenCLI; installs or upgrades it globally through npm when it is missing or older than `1.8.6`; installs the bundled adapters for all six platforms; starts or refreshes Browser Bridge; and opens the OpenCLI Browser Bridge page in the [Chrome Web Store](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/opencli/ildkmabpimmkaediidaifkhjpohdnifk). Confirm the extension installation, then return and click **Recheck setup**. Any remaining failed check displays its own recovery action.

 opencli plugin install file:///C:/path/to/dsh-reference-anything/opencli-plugin
 opencli daemon restart
 ```
 
-Replace `C:/path/to/dsh-reference-anything` with the repository location. Browser extensions cannot be silently installed from a webpage; confirm the installation in the Chrome Web Store, or download an extension package from [OpenCLI Releases](https://github.com/jackwener/opencli/releases) and use “Load unpacked.” If the browser blocks the store popup, the settings page keeps a normal fallback link. When multiple browser profiles are connected, select and apply one directly in the failed check. Global npm installation remains subject to OS permissions; failures retain their original diagnostic in the settings page.

 ## 🚀 Usage
 
-Reference Anything registers seven sources in the native DSH `@` menu rather than introducing a separate search interface. Settings let you choose which groups appear, their order, their collapsed row count, their hard candidate cap, and whether groups use plugin-owned collapse actions or the native scrolling list. A separate one-click control switches the visible picker back to DSH's official file/session list without stopping the plugin, synchronization service, local data, or model-facing tools; the same control restores the Reference Anything picker at any time.

-1. Open `Settings → Reference Anything` in DSH Web.
-2. Under **Availability check**, confirm that OpenCLI, Browser Bridge, the browser extension, and the conversation adapter are ready.
-3. Under **Web AI conversation sync settings**, choose a browser profile, storage mode, sync mode, and history range, then start syncing.
-4. Type `@` in the input box and choose from the `Commands`, `Skills`, `Files and folders`, `DSH sessions`, `Local agent conversations`, `External conversations`, or `Cloud drive files` groups.
-5. Type a keyword to filter candidates, for example `@cache-design`.
+1. Type `@` to browse sources, or enter a keyword such as `@cache-design`.
+2. Click a result, or select it with the arrow keys and press `Enter`. For workspace folders, `Tab` opens the folder and `Enter` inserts a reference.
+3. Add your request and send it: “Use this Codex conversation and project folder to check whether the earlier plan has been implemented.”
+
+For web chats, complete the connection steps above, then choose platforms, browser profile, storage mode, and history range under **Settings → Reference Anything → Web AI conversation sync settings** and start syncing. For cloud files, connect OpenList and add a mount in Settings.
 
 The default **Read bodies on demand** mode stores only the title index locally and uses the browser when an agent needs the conversation. Choose **Store full bodies locally** for offline reading and full-text search. The plugin checks for new versions when it loads; release notes are available in Settings, and installed updates take effect after restarting DSH.
 
-> [!WARNING]
-> To protect your account and conversation data, external conversations are imported and synchronized through OpenCLI using your existing logged-in browser session. A browser window may temporarily open during use or synchronization. In most cases, leave it open in the background: the plugin will reuse it without interrupting your work. The window may also display OpenCLI debugging information. This is expected—please do not be alarmed or close it manually; wait for the operation to finish. Due to current OpenCLI limitations, we temporarily use slower serial synchronization to reduce how often browser windows open. Once the upstream OpenCLI repository is updated, we will switch to faster parallel synchronization.
+> [!NOTE]
+> OpenCLI may open or reuse browser windows while syncing web chats or reading bodies. Keep them available until the operation finishes. Sync speed depends on the platform, history size, and browser connection.

+
+Under **General**, set shortcuts for groups, web providers, local agents, and cloud mounts. Separate multiple shortcuts with commas: set the file group to `file,f`, then use `@f:README`. A shortcut can target multiple sources. Full-width colons (`：`) are also supported.
 
 ### 🧩 One `@` menu, multiple sources
 
-The `@` menu contains seven groups: `Commands`, `Skills`, `Files and folders`, `DSH sessions`, `Local agent conversations`, `External conversations`, and `Cloud drive files`. The cloud-drive group browses folders and supported files from drives connected through OpenList; access is read-only, and connections are managed in Settings. Each group shows six rows before its expand action by default and accepts a separate hard candidate cap from 1 to 50. In collapse mode, each expand action reveals five more rows and updates the mounted menu without jumping back to the top; collapse restores the configured compact count. The external-conversation group keeps its sync action first and updates that row and the visible results in place while synchronization runs and completes. Under `Settings → Reference Anything → General`, you can enable or disable groups, reorder them, and choose **Collapse / expand** or **Native DSH scrolling**.

+
+All 29 sources use bundled read-only scanners and parsers derived from dsh-chat-import. Scanning and references work without installing Chat Import. Source switches, additional directories and workspace scope still apply; settings show source paths, counts and scan errors. Enter inserts a reference, including recoverable images through DSH attachments; viewing images requires a vision-capable model. Confirmed empty conversations are hidden; read errors remain visible. Local references now store a readable source, path and session ID; reselect references created with the old local URI protocol.
+
+When you send local references, the plugin appends one aggregated background after each user message. The model reads `ref: {source, path, sessionId}` with a content `revision`. `reference_list` discovers local sessions; `reference_read` reads `messages`, `tools` or `images`; `reference_search` searches message/tool text; `reference_image` returns actual pixels.
+
+Use `from` for both scope and starting position: `messages` uses `messageId`; `tools` uses `toolId` with an optional owning `messageId`; `images` uses `imageId` with an optional owning `messageId`. Copy the complete `next` object into `from` to continue. Long text uses a Unicode code-point `textOffset`, preserving every remaining character rather than keeping only the head and tail. Source-provided summaries use `role: "summary"`; source limitations use an English `notice`. Source content is never translated.
+
+`reference-mention.maxTextBytes` caps all new reference contexts in one pre-step batch at 16 KiB by default; estimated remaining context can reduce it. `reference-tool.maxTextBytes` separately caps each local tool text result at 16 KiB. Unknown capacity leaves only bounded metadata and a notice; metadata that cannot fit fails explicitly. Previews contain a continuous recent suffix, with a continuation for an oversized final message. Images have a separate 10 MiB limit.
+
+Every new read checks the enabled source, allowed real path and session identity; no per-session grant is needed for local references. After a version change, restart `reference_read` with the same `ref`, `part: "messages"`, and omit both `revision` and `from`. No full-text snapshots or cross-call parsed-body caches are saved. Other sources retain their existing URI-based protocol under `external_reference_list` and `external_reference_read`.
+
+Import status, session import and handoff summaries use the optional Chat Import API. Install or upgrade the independent plugin from settings when needed; Reference Anything does not install it on startup. An unavailable API leaves import status unknown and does not stop local scanning or reference reading. Tab retains the configured import and summary actions and confirmation flow.

-**Supported agents:** Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Qoder, Reasonix, OpenClaw, Kimi, Grok Build, Hermes, Gemini CLI, Pi, opencode, mimocode, and zcode.
+**Supported sources:** Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, Reasonix, opencode, mimocode, zcode, Grok Build, OpenClaw, Pi, Hermes, Kimi, Kilo Code, Qoder, ChatGPT exports, WorkBuddy, Qwen Code, Continue, Cline, Goose, DSH 4, Zed, Crush, Teleagent, Trae Work, Vibe, and DSH.
 
 **Features:**
 
 - Automatically detects conversation history and shows the number found for each agent
 - Lets you enable agents independently or choose a custom history folder
 - Searches all detected conversations by default, with an option to limit results to the current workspace
-- Reads conversation content on demand; tool names are concise by default, with full details available when needed
+- Automatically previews recent body text; reads numbered messages, associated tool details and images on demand
 - Supports agent-specific prefixes such as `@codex:`, `@claude-code:`, and `@gemini-cli:`
 
+References read local history without modifying it. Import and handoff-summary actions are separate operations through Chat Import. Claude Code and Codex adapters have been checked against real transcripts; other formats are primarily fixture-tested and may vary by tool version. Database reads for opencode, mimocode, and zcode require `node:sqlite` in the DSH host runtime.
+
+#### 🧩 @Local plugins — installed and configured plugins
+
+Use `@plugin:` to find plugins. Settings can also show only running plugins or hide official DeepSeek plugins. Under **Settings → Reference Anything → General**, the **All local plugins** switch enables or disables this group immediately; the choice is saved. It is enabled by default, with six collapsed rows and a candidate cap of 50.
+
+The list uses the active DSH loader's composed entries and lifecycle state, supplemented by declared profile bundles and installed packages with DSH bundle/client metadata. Ordinary dependencies are excluded. Running, disabled, and not-running states describe host entries; packages without a host entry are shown as not running. Selecting a plugin inserts its name and, when available, a native reference to its real local directory. File access still uses DSH's existing tools and permissions.

 #### 🌐 @External conversations — external conversation platforms
 
 Supports historical conversations from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Grok, and Kimi.

+**Store full bodies locally** enables offline reading of synchronized text; it does not mean attachments are saved offline. Automatic and startup sync are off by default and can be enabled in Settings.
+
 **Platform filtering:**
+
 - Use `@chatgpt:cache` or `@claude:refactor` to filter a specific platform
 - Short aliases are also accepted, such as `@gpt:` and `@ds:`
 - Entering `@claude` alone lists recent conversations for that platform
 
 **Search capabilities:**
+
 - **Title match:** fuzzy search on conversation titles
+
 - **Content search:** available only in **Store full bodies locally** mode; if title matches are insufficient, synchronized bodies are searched and matching excerpts are shown in the candidate list
+
 - **Provider and account isolation:** history is maintained separately by Provider and account scope
+
 - `@` search uses the account scope cached by the latest sync and never probes the browser; after a sync observes an account switch, it exposes only that account while older rows remain available in conversation management for cleanup
 
 **Reference display:** after selection, the draft shows a native removable DSH reference with the Provider logo. Its stable serialized form is:

 - Each conversation keeps only the latest revision. Cursors for older revisions expire after content changes.
 - `reference_attachment_read` validates the task grant and, for Web conversations, verifies that the active provider account still matches the account scope captured by sync. A mismatch is rejected with guidance to sync that provider and reselect the conversation.
 - Attachments are capped at 25 MiB while streaming. PNG, JPEG, WebP, and GIF may render inline; every other format, including SVG, is returned as an ordinary temporary file. Successful files expire after one hour, and failures or plugin disposal remove them immediately.
