How to install modlens
Install command, configuration and the one gotcha — taken from liustack/modlens's own README, not invented here.

Install
Copy from your project's README (source: upstream). There is one install path.
npx -y @deepseek-ai/dsh plugin --profile web add @liustack/modsearch@latestAfter installing, restart the DSH session. A plugin that is installed but does not load is almost always a profile mismatch — see nine causes of "plugin installed but not loading".
What it does
DeepSeek's flagship chat models, and GLM-5.3 itself, are text-only and cannot read images. GLM-5.3-Flash is native multimodal. ModLens is a plug-in vision engine that gives a text-only model sight. ModLens reads images pasted straight into the chat, no saving to a file and passing a path first.
Issues are welcome any time: open one. Follow the liustack WeChat official account, and come find me on X: @liustack. What you built with it, which harness you are on, and what should come next are all shared on WeChat and X. A proper community space is on the way.
Caveats before you install
- The upstream README is written in Chinese. The commands below are verbatim; the surrounding explanation on this page is ours.
- The command above was copied on 2026-10-25. If it fails, the README is the authority, not this page.
- This site does not execute plugin code. Install commands are reproduced, not tested.
