What is it?

EAC-Desktop (Embracing All Creation) is an open-source desktop app that wraps the DeepSeek Harness agent kernel in a native window. It connects chat, project files, tool execution and a plugin ecosystem in one local interface, and ships with its own Node.js, npm and dsh runtime so regular users do not need to install Node separately.

The app is split into three layers: a Tauri/Rust shell handling windows, tray, single-instance behavior and exit policy; a Node sidecar that prepares environments, profiles and plugin sync over stdio JSON-RPC; and the Harness kernel that runs agents, conversations and tools. Environments are isolated through DPX, with separate data roots per release channel.

The project provides a set of companion plugins for file change review, context compaction, quick setup, a unified plugin market, and plugin snapshot and rollback. Installers are published for Windows x64, Linux x64 and macOS arm64, and the code is MIT-licensed.
