DeepSeek provider

May 4, 2026 · View on GitHub

DeepSeek is API-only. Balance is reported by GET https://api.deepseek.com/user/balance, so CodexBar only needs a valid API key to show your remaining credit balance.

Data sources

  1. API key supplied via DEEPSEEK_API_KEY / DEEPSEEK_KEY, or selected from DeepSeek token accounts in ~/.codexbar/config.json.
  2. Balance endpoint
    • GET https://api.deepseek.com/user/balance
    • Request headers: Authorization: Bearer <api key>, Accept: application/json
    • Response contains is_available, and a balance_infos array with per-currency entries (total_balance, granted_balance, topped_up_balance).

Usage details

  • The menu card shows total balance with the paid vs. granted breakdown: e.g. $50.00 (Paid: \$40.00 / Granted: \$10.00).
  • The API separates granted balance from topped-up balance; CodexBar labels these as granted vs. paid credit.
  • When multiple currencies are present, USD is shown preferentially.
  • If total balance is zero, CodexBar shows an add-credits message. If balance is nonzero but is_available is false, it shows "Balance unavailable for API calls".
  • There is no session or weekly window — DeepSeek does not expose per-window quota via API.
  • Token-account selection injects the selected key into the fetch environment; otherwise CodexBar reads DEEPSEEK_API_KEY / DEEPSEEK_KEY.
