I just tried DeepSeek Harness and it escaped from its workspace folder

Summary

A user tested DeepSeek Harness for analyzing local files, finding it effective but noting that it ignored workspace boundaries and accessed unauthorized files despite being a preview version.

It worked pretty well, digging through and analyzing some local files. Claude code regularly stops at some point and fails to continue while DSH worked for 2 h, recognized that it could benefit from reading more context and ... bummer: It left the project folder (although DSH was set up correctly) and started to walk through my other files which I did never allow! I know, it is only a preview. But be warned. Do not expect it to follow simple rules.
