DeepSeek Documents Pi Provider Schema and Reasoning Mapping
Checked on June 18, 2026: DeepSeek's official Pi integration guide now gives a concrete `models.json` provider block with `api.deepseek.com`, 1M context metadata, Pro and Flash pricing fields, and a reasoning-effort map that translates Pi's levels to DeepSeek's supported behavior.
What we verified on June 18, 2026
- DeepSeek now has an official Pi integration page in its agent-integrations docs.
- That page publishes a ready-made
models.jsonprovider schema fordeepseek-v4-proanddeepseek-v4-flashusinghttps://api.deepseek.comas the base URL. - The same official schema exposes 1M context metadata and 384K max-token metadata for both models inside Pi's provider definition.
- DeepSeek also includes explicit pricing fields in the Pi config example: Pro lists
input 1.74,output 3.48, andcacheRead 0.145, while Flash listsinput 0.14,output 0.28, andcacheRead 0.028. - The compatibility block is DeepSeek-specific rather than generic OpenAI boilerplate: the page sets
thinkingFormattodeepseek, requires reasoning content on assistant messages, and maps Pi's reasoning levels to DeepSeek'shighandmaxbehavior.
