DeepSeek "updates with every crash," Harness releases another new version

What happened: DeepSeek Harness released a pre-release version v0.2.2-alpha.3 on its GitHub repository, one day after partial outages of DeepSeek's web and API services. The update covers code review, automated task management, SDK and plugin ecosystem. Key numbers: Version v0.2.2-alpha.3, reported November 4. Why it matters: The update adds an experimental unified entry for change requests and worktrees, host-level task management, and the apply_patch tool, which is off by default. No desktop installer is available yet, so existing desktop App users cannot upgrade directly.
