What happened

On the GitHub daily trending board updated October 18 (covering the full October 17 UTC day), dsh-our-free-model by Ebony-Vinyl ranked second with +3,045 stars in one day. It is a plugin for DeepSeek Harness (dsh): once installed, dsh's model picker fills with free frontier models including DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and Kimi K3 — no login, sign-up, or API key required. The repository is public under the MIT license with Chinese and English READMEs, and now holds about 24,725 stars.

According to the repo README, the free lanes connect directly upstream — OpenCode's Zen gateway and Kilo AI's public gateway, with no third-party relay in between; the model list, context lengths, and capabilities are re-pulled from upstream on every refresh. The plugin also exposes a local OpenAI-compatible relay port so other tools can call these models via a base URL; usage statistics stay on the machine and are never uploaded.

The README also states its limits: the Kilo free pool is provided free by upstream, whose model cards note prompts may be logged to improve the service — do not send sensitive content. Separately, the same-named package on npm was not published by this repository and differs in content; the repo instructs users to install only from Release packages or source.

Key facts

  1. No. 2 daily: +3,045 stars in the October 17 UTC window; about 24,725 stars total; MIT license; Chinese and English READMEs.
  2. Key-free and ready: after installing the plugin, dsh's model picker fills with frontier models like DeepSeek V4.1 Flash and Kimi K3; no login, sign-up, or API key.
  3. Direct upstream: free lanes come from OpenCode's Zen gateway and Kilo AI's public gateway; the model list is re-pulled on every refresh; includes a local OpenAI-compatible relay port.
  4. Caveats: prompts on the Kilo free pool may be logged upstream to improve the service — do not send sensitive content; the same-named npm package is not from this repo, install from Release packages or source only.

Why it matters

it turns key-free access to frontier models into an install-and-go plugin, taking No. 2 on GitHub daily trending with +3,045 stars in a day; prompts on the free lanes may be logged upstream, and the repo README explicitly warns against sending sensitive content.
