## AI overview

DeepSeek's free GitHub research prototype, dsh-superagent, performs repository work only when an allowed user explicitly requests it or a team rule applies. Teams can broaden access to a chat or GitHub scope so anyone there can mention the agent. The host enforces access lists and rules; messages or quoted documents cannot expand permissions. In default mode, implicit requests are assessed and logged but not accepted. The source recommends reviewing those records before switching to auto mode. Auto-merge is controlled by a "Delivery requirements" prompt; the host adds no merge logic. By default, the agent does not enable auto-merge under its own account, so people merge unless the prompt specifies another account.
