Same as me. I run a python client to check my API and it works normaly but not in Roo, even not working in Cline. Maybe DeepSeek changes the way how conect (interact) to the API service

api_key='API_KEY'
from openai import OpenAI
for api_key in deepseek_api_keys:
client = OpenAI(api_key=api_key, base_url="https://api.deepseek.com")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deepseek-chat",
messages=[
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant"},
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"},
],
stream=False
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

The console:
Hello! How can I assist you today? 😊

I think they’re prioritizing short requests over long requests while they’re under heavy load.

Looks more like they upgraded their API request body and forgot to publish that contract to other API consumers?

Same. Curl is working for me now, but both Cline and Roo Code still aren’t. I’m using both the V3 and R1 models directly from DeepSeek, and it seems like they might be blocking requests or something has changed on their end.

Same.

1. Api provider DeepSeek
2. Model deeepseek-chat
3. Ask anything like "hello?"

It says 400 Model Not Exist
Is the api endpoint changed?

I'm having the same issue with both cline and roo code.
invalid json response body at https://api.deepseek.com/v1/chat/completions reason: Unexpected end of JSON input
I can get a response from curl using deepseek-chat model
Response fails with deepseek-reasoning model

[vjarysta]

Same here, with deepseek-reasoning

[SyntaxFear]

same here, with both models. last 2 day.
api dashboard is under maintenance
hope it will be back soon

Same, I guess its because they are under heavy load.
