I'm not sure you need a "DeepSeek native coding agent" to take advantage of DeepSeeks cache, yesterday as the Codex quota usage issue still wasn't solved for me, I wrote a tiny little bridge so I could use DeepSeek V4 Pro via Codex, and seems most of everything I did was basically cached as far as I can tell: https://i.imgur.com/7eKn6wN.png (2026-05-23 Input (Cache hit): 39,123,200 tokens, Input (Cache miss) 1,692,286), and the bridge is doing not special, just massage the DeepSeek API shape into what Codex expects, nothing particular about caching at all.

Besides being even better at the caching, I'm not sure what benefits you'd get compared to just firing up OpenCode with the DeepSeek API yourself, it'll similarly do caching for sure and also "talks directly to api.deepseek.com" if that matters, and you'll get a much more mature harness.

Not a fan of that page. The animated typing and resulting continuous resize of the example keeps moving the content beneath it down and up. Such bad UX.

It's pretty funny, i'm a $200/m Claude subscriber and i've had little need to use anything else. However the more Claude has been restricting my workflow (notably around the recent IDE/-p usage change) the more i've been wanting to go elsehwere.

I'm concerned since i really want SOTA reasoning, but DeepSeek still has me interested.

I love the focus on cache hit efficiency. Hats off to the deekseek team for creating a great product that maximizes cost efficiency for the user.

Okay, I'm curious.

From the FAQ, I see:

>Can I point it at a self-hosted / private DeepSeek endpoint?

>Yes. Since 0.30 we accept non-standard key prefixes for self-hosted DeepSeek endpoints. Just point `baseUrl` at your internal address — the loop, cache strategy, and tool protocol are unchanged.

But my question is: If I use Reasonix to talk to a deepseek endpoint through openrouter, am I still getting the cache-hit benifits of this agent harness?

Unusable thanks to the top animation pushing the rest of the site down repeatedly as you’re trying to read.

I would've liked benchmarks against other harnesses showing the caching performance

Good timing given the cost spike across other frontier models.

Isn't caching a server-side thing? How does the agent affect it, significantly at least?

Wow the UI looks exactly what I vibe coded yesterday. What a coincidence

Can someone give me a eli5 version of what this is? It really sounds useful to Claude subscribers.

Is this improving the cache hit and hence overall efficiency of coding workflows?

Does it also let me host a local llm (deepseek)? What are model min requirements for this?

Doesn't Pi Agent do exactly this? Assuming "append only" means they do some kind of compaction as well.

> no reordering, no marker-based compaction

Is this really the behavior you want? Yes, doing tool-result clearing and such will blow your cache, but if you do it only occasionally, it's still likely a win. Yes, cache hits are good, but not so good that it's okay to be profligate with context to preserve those precious, precious KVs.

So what's best low cost coding agent these days? Kimi 2.6? Qwen's latest closed model? Composer 2.5? DeepSeek?

What AI model did you use for the website design? This is the second one I see with the exact same font and color scheme. Just curious because Claude models lean towards purples for example. Thank you!
