This PR addresses Issue #8270 by implementing support for controlling reasoning behavior in DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus via OpenRouter.

Problem

DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus via OpenRouter was forcing reasoning mode with no option to disable it, leading to worse answers for some tasks and increased token usage.

Solution

Based on the suggestion from @bozoweed, this implementation uses extra_body with chat_template_kwargs to control the reasoning behavior:

  • Uses extra_body: { chat_template_kwargs: { thinking: boolean } } instead of the standard reasoning parameter
  • Defaults to reasoning OFF for DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus (addressing the issue requirement)
  • Enables reasoning only when explicitly requested via reasoning settings
  • Applies this special handling only to DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus, not affecting other models

Changes

  • Modified src/api/providers/openrouter.ts to add special handling for DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus
  • Added comprehensive tests in src/api/providers/__tests__/openrouter.spec.ts
  • Ensured backward compatibility with existing models

Testing

  • Added 4 new test cases specifically for DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus
  • All existing tests pass without regression
  • Tests verify correct behavior for both reasoning enabled and disabled states

Fixes #8270

Thanks to @bozoweed for the helpful suggestion about using extra_body with chat_template_kwargs!


Important

Introduces extra_body for reasoning control in DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus, defaulting reasoning to OFF unless enabled, with tests added.

  • Behavior:
    • Uses extra_body with chat_template_kwargs to control reasoning in DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus.
    • Defaults reasoning to OFF unless explicitly enabled.
    • Applies only to DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus, not other models.
  • Code Changes:
    • Modified OpenRouterHandler in openrouter.ts to implement extra_body handling.
    • Updated createMessage and completePrompt methods to use extra_body for DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus.
  • Testing:
    • Added tests in openrouter.spec.ts for reasoning control using extra_body.
    • Tests cover both reasoning enabled and disabled scenarios for DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus.

Review Complete

I've reviewed this PR including the new commits since the last review and found no issues. The implementation correctly addresses the requirement to control reasoning behavior for DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus via OpenRouter using the extra_body parameter.

What was reviewed:

  • ✅ Correct implementation of extra_body with chat_template_kwargs.thinking parameter
  • ✅ Proper handling of reasoning enabled/disabled states
  • ✅ Default to reasoning OFF as required by the issue
  • ✅ Reasoning only enabled when explicitly requested via reasoning settings
  • ✅ Special handling only applies to DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus (doesn't affect other models)
  • ✅ Comprehensive test coverage with 4 new test cases
  • ✅ Both createMessage and completePrompt methods properly handle the special case
  • ✅ Tests verify that other models don't get the extra_body parameter
  • ✅ New commits add robust .env.local loading for test environment setup

The PR is ready to merge.

Acknowledged. I am investigating the 34 failing tests in the integration test workflow for this PR. I will fetch logs, reproduce locally, and push fixes to branch fix/deepseek-v3-terminus-reasoning. I will post an update soon.

Thanks for the ping @bozoweed. Acknowledged. I am working on the 34 failing integration tests now. Root cause appears to be tests depending on request payload in api_req_started which was removed in a recent change. I will update the e2e suites to detect tool execution via api_req_started presence and validate via completion output and filesystem side effects, push fixes to this PR branch, and monitor CI.
