| Best use | Best for a developer using DeepSeek Harness who wants session files, changes, and parallel jobs visible beside the conversation. It adds session-specific context and separates Side Chat questions from the main flow. It is not a standalone full IDE and requires a compatible DSH release. | Best for an individual working across two computers or a small team sharing files with trusted devices. It moves folder changes instead of repeating manual copies, while keeping device and storage choices under your control. It does not replace independent backups or collaborative editing, and devices holding the files must be reachable. | Best for a developer or small team that repeatedly edits GitHub Actions workflows and wants to test a job before pushing. It provides a local run log, while a final GitHub check remains necessary. It is not suitable when exact hosted-runner parity is required. |
