DeepSeek R1 🐋

Overview

This repository contains a powerful coding assistant application that integrates with the DeepSeek API to process user conversations and generate structured JSON responses. Through an intuitive command-line interface, it can read local file contents, create new files, and apply diff edits to existing files in real time.

Key Features

1. DeepSeek Client Configuration

   • Automatically configures an API client to use the DeepSeek service with a valid DEEPSEEK_API_KEY
   • Connects to the DeepSeek endpoint specified in the environment variable to stream GPT-like completions

2. Data Models

   • Leverages Pydantic for type-safe handling of file operations:
     • FileToCreate: Defines structure for new files to be created
     • FileToEdit: Specifies changes to be made to existing files
     • AssistantResponse: Structures chat responses and file operations

3. System Prompt

   • Implements a comprehensive system prompt that guides conversation flow
   • Ensures all responses follow strict JSON formatting
   • Supports both file creation and editing operations

4. File Operations

   • read_local_file(): Reads and returns file contents as string
   • create_file(): Creates or updates files with provided content
   • show_diff_table(): Displays proposed changes in a rich format
   • apply_diff_edit(): Implements precise file modifications

5. File Integration Commands

   • "/add path/to/file": Reads and includes single file content
   • "/add path/to/folder": Adds all non-binary, non-hidden files from directory
   • Enables context-aware assistance based on your codebase

6. Conversation Management

   • Maintains conversation history for context awareness
   • Streams responses via DeepSeek API in real-time
   • Parses responses as JSON for structured operations

7. Interactive CLI

   • Simple command-line interface
   • Real-time file modification previews
   • Easy confirmation of suggested changes
   • Exit with "exit" or "quit" commands
