## About DeepSeek with LuumenAI

Connect DeepSeek with an API key and your agent can reach its models without leaving the terminal. Send a prompt through DEEPSEEK_CREATE_CHAT_COMPLETION or the Anthropic-compatible DEEPSEEK_CREATE_ANTHROPIC_MESSAGE, see what is available with DEEPSEEK_LIST_MODELS, and read remaining credit with DEEPSEEK_GET_USER_BALANCE. All four are read-only and answer right away.

## Example tools

Read-only (4 in total):

- `DEEPSEEK_CREATE_ANTHROPIC_MESSAGE` — Create a model response using DeepSeek's Anthropic-compatible API format with support for system prompts, tool calling, streaming, and thinking mode.
- `DEEPSEEK_CREATE_CHAT_COMPLETION` — Create a chat completion using DeepSeek models (deepseek-chat or deepseek-reasoner).
- `DEEPSEEK_GET_USER_BALANCE` — Get user's current account balance including granted and topped-up balances with detailed breakdown by currency (CNY or USD).
- `DEEPSEEK_LIST_MODELS` — List currently available DeepSeek models and provides basic information about each one such as the owner and availability.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to DeepSeek?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in DeepSeek on its own?

No. Every one of the 4 tools is read-only, so LuumenAI can answer questions from DeepSeek but cannot change anything in it.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to DeepSeek is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
