How to use the PKU harness Android app — installing it, first-run setup, the four tabs, plugins and permissions, your campus account and the settings.
This manual describes version 1.0.20 of the PKU harness Android app. Each page covers one part of the app. Button and menu names in the steps are the ones the app shows.
PKU harness is an Android app that helps you with campus services. You sign in once with your PKU student ID and password and connect an AI model service. You can then ask the assistant in chat to check your Campus Card balance, sync your timetable, set reminders and more. Each feature that connects to a campus service is provided by a plugin.
If you are new, start with AI provider: the assistant can't do anything until you connect a model service, and that page shows how to get a key step by step.
