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.json provider schema for deepseek-v4-pro and deepseek-v4-flash using https://api.deepseek.com as 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, and cacheRead 0.145, while Flash lists input 0.14, output 0.28, and cacheRead 0.028.
  • The compatibility block is DeepSeek-specific rather than generic OpenAI boilerplate: the page sets thinkingFormat to deepseek, requires reasoning content on assistant messages, and maps Pi's reasoning levels to DeepSeek's high and max behavior.
