Configure DeepSeek in Continue with an OpenAI-Compatible Endpoint

Continue supports OpenAI-compatible providers through config.yaml. This setup keeps DeepSeek model names and Tokuse credentials outside your application code.

Settings

Provider
openai
Model
deepseek-flash
API base
https://tokuse.com/v1

Setup steps

  1. Open your Continue configuration file.
  2. Add an OpenAI provider model with apiBase set to the Tokuse OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
  3. Put the Tokuse key in a secret or environment variable, not directly in a shared repository.
  4. Reload the Continue extension and send a small test request.

Before production use

  • Keep the Tokuse key on the server or in the tool's secret store.
  • Use the base URL without appending /chat/completions.
  • Verify the model alias in the current Tokuse catalog.
  • Test errors, timeout behavior, and cost with a small workload first.
