# DeepSeek

`deepseek` is the [DeepSeek (https://www.deepseek.com/)](https://www.deepseek.com/) chat model provider. It uses the `DEEPSEEK_API_...` environment variables.

1. Create a new secret key from the [DeepSeek API Keys portal](https://platform.deepseek.com/usage).

2. Update the `.env` file with the secret key.

   .env

   ```txt
   DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=sk_...
   ```

3. Set the `model` field in `script` to `deepseek:deepseek:deepseek-chat` which is currently the only supported model.

   ```js
   script({
       model: "deepseek:deepseek-chat",
       ...
   })
   ```
