The native adapter's route was named deepseek, colliding with pi-ai's
catalog provider of the same name, so the two DeepSeek paths could never
be mounted side by side. The web settings page needs both configurable at
once. Compositions, fixtures, goldens, scaffolding defaults, and docs all
move together (pre-release, no shim); TUI/session-query-spill/
missing-credential goldens re-recorded through their keyless refresh
modes because provider-name length shifts box padding and spill
truncation points.
The adapter takes an options thunk and a per-stream credential resolver
instead of frozen construction facts: base URL, catalog, defaults, idle
budget, and the API key re-resolve at each operation, so a settings or
credential change reaches the very next request while in-flight streams
keep the facts they started with. resolveAdapterOptions is the one explicit
resolve step (entry config fails loud at load; a live snapshot failing a
beyond-schema bound keeps the last good options). The plugin layers its
entry config under the optional llm-deepseek settings section and resolves
keys literal-first through ctx.credentials with an ambient env fallback; a
missing key now registers the route, warns, and fails each request with
actionable MISSING_CREDENTIAL instead of failing plugin load. The
registration-captured retry policy re-registers the route in place when it
changes.
