+### DeepSeek Search
+
+DeepSeek Search is a direct metered provider (`provider: "deepseek"`). The
+adapter composes domain and inclusive publication-date filters into DeepSeek's
+documented `site:`, `-site:`, `after:`, and `before:` query operators, and
+requests the model-oriented summary rather than full page content; readable
+pages remain `web_fetch`'s job. DeepSeek caps queries at 128 characters
+including those operators, so a long filtered query is rejected before
+dispatch instead of being truncated. Requests that need social, media,
+location, context-size, token-budget, or live-access controls are rejected
+rather than degraded. Date operators have day granularity, so the provider
+window is widened to whole days and a warning is reported; time-of-day bounds
+are then enforced locally on results that report a date. Results with a known
+publication date are filtered to the requested inclusive range; undated
+results remain visible with an explicit warning.
+
+The adapter reads `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` from the environment, like the other
+direct providers. A DeepSeek login stored only in Pi's model registry does not
+register it.
