Why does npx say it cannot find dsh on Windows?

The installation command reports that dsh cannot be found. How do I distinguish a download failure from a wrong invocation?

This answer refers to the version in the original report. Check the controls and behavior in your own version.
Check that the command names the npm package and executable as documented for your version. In the same terminal, inspect npm config get registry and run npm view @deepseek-ai/dsh version to check package visibility.
If lookup fails, investigate the first network, authentication, or certificate error. If it succeeds, use the documented npx invocation that specifies the package and executable, then capture the first fatal error. The RC number in the old thread is specific to that report.
