Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions

Why might the browser not open after running dsh web, and what port should I check?

It listens on 127.0.0.1:3080 by default, so confirm the process with ps aux | grep "bin.js web". If that port is occupied, start it with dsh web --port 8080.

How can I allow git-hosted plugins when allowBuilds blocks them?

Allow them in pnpm-workspace.yaml.

How can I inspect the current DSH configuration?

Use dsh --dump-config to inspect the configuration before fixing the symptom.
