How to use ego (lite) with DeepSeek Harness
Use DeepSeek Harness with ego (lite) on Windows. Enable Full access, load ego-browser, and review a Tokyo Airbnb search.
DeepSeek Harness can use ego-browser to work in an ego (lite) Space on Windows. This recording follows an Airbnb search for accommodation in Tokyo, from selecting the skill to reviewing a table of three listings.
Before you start: install ego (lite)
Install ego (lite) on Windows and finish setup. Open DeepSeek Harness on the same computer and start a new session. If you need help with the browser setup, begin with Quick start.
Check that ego-browser appears in the slash-command picker. If it does not, finish ego (lite) setup, restart DeepSeek Harness, and check again.
Step 1: Set session permissions
Open the permission menu below the message input and switch from Workspace Write to Full access. In the confirmation dialog, select I understand the risks and want to continue, then choose Enable Full access, as shown in the recording.
Step 2: Load the ego-browser skill
Type /ego-browser and select ego-browser from the slash-command picker. Add a space, enter your browser task in the same message, and send it.
Step 3: Let DeepSeek Harness work
DeepSeek Harness opens Airbnb in an ego (lite) Space, searches Tokyo, applies filters, and reads individual listings. Switch to the agent Space to follow its progress. Your own tabs stay in your Space while the task runs.
Step 4: Check the result
DeepSeek Harness returns a comparison table with three listings, source links, areas, room types, and the displayed stay totals and nightly prices.
Troubleshooting
ego-browser is missing
Finish ego (lite) setup on the same Windows computer, fully close and reopen DeepSeek Harness, and check the slash-command picker again.
DeepSeek Harness cannot open ego (lite)
Check that ego (lite) is installed and review the permission menu below the message input. If a permission request appears, review it before retrying the task.
The skill command is not recognized
Select ego-browser from the picker and keep a space between /ego-browser and the first word of your task.
