Security note: Plugins run in-process with your user privileges and are not sandboxed. Review the source before installing a third-party plugin.

The dedicated DeepSeek model provider for Alisio. Select it in /connect, discover models from the DeepSeek catalog, and talk to the Chat Completions or Responses API.

What it is

A model-provider plugin that registers the deepseek provider with the Alisio host. Credentials are managed by Alisio and are never persisted by this plugin: keys live in the global credentials store or an environment variable.

Installation

alisio install npm:@alisio/plugin-deepseek   # global, per-user
alisio plugins list                          # confirm it is installed

For an embedded host, load the package (or its dist/index.js) through your plugin host instead.

Using it: /connect

1. Run alisio, then /connect and choose DeepSeek.
2. Fields: API key (secret, required), API key environment variable (default DEEPSEEK_API_KEY), API mode (chat or responses), base URL (default https://api.deepseek.com; change only for a DeepSeek-compatible proxy).
3. Pick a model from the discovered catalog — for example deepseek/deepseek-chat.

The key is read from the stored credential first, then from process.env[apiKeyEnv] — usually:

export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=...   # never put the key in config files, profiles or READMEs

Features

• Model discovery from the DeepSeek catalog (GET /models) with honest context windows.
• Chat Completions and Responses modes (default chat); bearer auth, max_tokens output budget.
• Provider-side usage reporting while streaming (streamUsage: true).
• Credentials never leave the Alisio credentials store or the named environment variable.

While registered, the provider also appears in /model and alisio doctor.

Requirements

Node.js >= 22.16 and an Alisio host with @alisio/sdk >=0.1.0-alpha.10.
