DeepSeek TUI
Terminal coding agent for DeepSeek V4. It runs from the deepseek command, streams reasoning blocks, edits local workspaces with approval gates, and includes an auto mode that chooses both model and thinking level per turn.

Install
deepseek is distributed as Rust binaries: the dispatcher command
(deepseek) and the companion TUI runtime (deepseek-tui). Pick whichever
install path you already use; they all put the same commands on your PATH.
The npm package is an installer/wrapper for the release binaries, not the
agent runtime itself.
# 1. npm — easiest if you already use Node. The package downloads the
# matching prebuilt Rust binaries from GitHub Releases.
npm install -g deepseek-tui
# 2. Cargo — no Node needed.
cargo install deepseek-tui-cli --locked # `deepseek` (entry point)
cargo install deepseek-tui --locked # `deepseek-tui` (TUI binary)
# 3. Homebrew — macOS package manager.
brew tap Hmbown/deepseek-tui
brew install deepseek-tui
# 4. Direct download — no package manager or toolchain.
