Hi I'm one of the authors of DeepSeek Harness. It's just an early developer preview version we're presenting in MIT license currently. Expect lots of rough edges and compatibility-breaking changes. Any feedback and suggestions are more than welcome!

Sorry for the off topic question. You've been on hn a long time + work at deepseek which seems pretty uncommon. Anything you think hn doesn't know about deepseek that it should? Or any non-obvious ways hn/yc has influenced deepseek (or the broader ecosystem)?

I just started testing, but didn't figured out if it already support MCP/plugins? It seems it can already use Deepseek search if it uses official API, but what about custom providers? Can we use together with MCPs like tavily?

congrats! the paper that is published alongside this (Cordis) is super interesting. has anyone on the team given a talk or published a talk about this? would love to hear the authors break this down
