pi-deepseek-search

pi install npm:pi-deepseek-searchAdds web search to Pi using DeepSeek's web_search_20260209 server side tool (previously undocumented). Only available on DeepSeek's Anthropic-compatible endpoint, so this switches your search calls there automatically. No extra API keys or config needed if you use DeepSeek in Pi.
May 26, 2026: DeepSeek has now officially documented the Anthropic API web search tool support.
Limitations
Only works with DeepSeek models. The search runs on DeepSeek's servers during inference, so you can't use it with Anthropic, OpenAI, or any other provider.
Defaults to deepseek-v4-flash. Set DEEPSEEK_SEARCH_MODEL to change it.
