The DeepSeek Harness team shares its Super-agent design exploration
On the evening of October 31, 2026, the DeepSeek Harness team released "Super-agent Design Exploration: Toward More Autonomous Agent Systems," proposing the Super Agent concept and open-sourcing the prototype dsh-superagent-prototype on GitHub. According to Sina Tech, the architecture consists of five modules: a two-layer Router/Worker, event-driven operation, asynchronous multi-channel interaction, storage-compute separation, and an external Watchdog. The goal is to enable Agents to stay continuously online, run multiple tasks in parallel, and proactively respond to environmental events; in preliminary experiments, the p50 task completion time was 12.4 minutes and the p95 was 15.7 minutes, and Router batching reduced the inference time allocated to a single decision from 6.4 seconds to 1.6 seconds. TMTPost·AGI reported that the article splits tasks using two roles, Router and Worker, triggers work from activity such as group chats, emails, and code checks through two filters—rules plus models—and emphasizes notifying only when results are usable or a human decision is needed. The team stated that the prototype is only a research prototype and not an official DeepSeek product; it currently mainly targets a GitHub repository and can also connect to Feishu, and some designs have not yet been implemented.
