Introduce web access as a first-class capability seam so the model-facing web tools stay stable while backends change. dsh-web owns ctx.web as a provider registry with registration-order-independent selection and the WebError taxonomy; dsh-web-search-exa, dsh-web-search-perplexity, and dsh-web-fetch-local register capabilities into it; dsh-tool-web is the sole owner of the model-facing web_search/web_fetch schemas, prompt sections, and HTML-to-markdown presentation. Search and fetch are deliberately one seam. Providers ship as namespace plugins that register into ctx.web (like an LlmAdapter into ctx.llm), not key-owning services, since multiple search providers cannot each own the key. Tool registration follows product enablement, not backend availability, so load order/credentials never enter the model contract; the seam resolves the provider at execution time and surfaces a structured WebError otherwise. Moves the RFC to implemented/ amended to match what shipped. Example/app configs are intentionally not wired yet (RFC migration step 6).
@deepseek-ai/dsh-web-search-perplexity
A Perplexity-backed WebSearchProvider for the harness web capability seam (ctx.web). It calls Perplexity's OpenAI-compatible POST /chat/completions endpoint and maps the generated answer plus citations into the seam's normalized WebSearchResult.
This is an implementation package: it registers a provider into ctx.web, it does not own the key and it does not register a model-facing tool. Like @deepseek-ai/dsh-llm-deepseek, it is a function/namespace plugin (inject: ['web']). The OpenAI-compatible wire shape is a provider-private detail — it does not make this provider depend on ctx.llm.

Mapping
content ← choices[0].message.content (the generated answer). sources[] prefers the structured search_results[] (url, title, snippet, publishedAt ← date), falling back to the URL-only citations[] array only when search_results is absent — those sources carry just a url, which is why title/snippet/publishedAt are optional on the seam. Provider failures surface as WebError WEB_PROVIDER_ERROR; an aborted request surfaces as WEB_ABORTED. Perplexity has no result-count control, so maxResults is enforced by the seam (truncating sources[] and setting truncated).
