Watch Skill · DeepWatch

Give AI agents eyes, ears, and verifiable results.

Watch Skill turns video, audio and screen activity into searchable, timestamped evidence, and answers did that actually work? with a deterministic contract rather than a model's opinion. Add it to the agent you already use over MCP.

DeepWatch is a ready-made agent workspace, built on the official DeepSeek Harness with Watch Skill already composed in, where a tool call leaves a receipt you can open and a result can be checked by something other than the agent that produced it.

Two capabilities, and they work apart

Perception. Video, audio and screen activity become frames, transcripts and OCR text, each carrying an absolute timestamp. Index a source once and query it for as long as you keep it; every answer cites a moment you can open.

Verification. A frozen contract — file digests, JSON values, SQL results, HTTP responses, DOM state — is evaluated by a separate process. The verdict is VERIFIED, FAILED, UNVERIFIED or INCONCLUSIVE, and it does not come from a language model.

Either is useful on its own, and the split is deliberate.

Watch Skill — the engine

Index a recording once and ask it questions for as long as you keep it. Answers cite timestamps you can open. Verification contracts check file digests, JSON values, SQL results, HTTP responses and DOM state, and report passed, failed, unverified or inconclusive — four answers, because three of them are not the same as "no".

Any agent can use it: MCP, a CLI, or a REST API.

DeepWatch — the workspace

Built on the official DeepSeek Harness, with Watch Skill composed in, installed by one command. You get an agent that can see and prove, without wiring anything together yourself.

Every tool call leaves a receipt naming what it touched. Every path a tool declares is checked against one workspace boundary, so a tool cannot quietly write outside it. Results carry a Core verdict you can open, and the Library keeps them after a restart.

Runs in your browser. Compare puts two runs of the same contract side by side and shows where their verdicts diverged.

Watch Skill sees and proves. DeepWatch is the workspace it comes built into.
