Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: DEPUTY_PROVIDER (deepinfra (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) or xai (Grok, default model grok-4.3)), DEEPINFRA_API_KEY (DeepInfra API key (deepinfra.com, Dashboard > API Keys), for the default provider. Only sent to api.deepinfra.com), XAI_API_KEY (xAI API key (console.x.ai), when DEPUTY_PROVIDER is xai. Only sent to api.x.ai), DEPUTY_MODE (accuracy: Claude writes all code; Deputy reviews and consults. lean: fewest Claude tokens, little accuracy loss. balanced: Deputy takes mechanical work. partner: Deputy does all low-level work and gives ideas. savings: Deputy takes most coding), DEPUTY_THINKING (How hard the helper model thinks), DEPUTY_MODEL (Model id served by the endpoint), DEPUTY_BASE_URL (Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (https, or http on localhost for a local model)), DEPUTY_WORKSPACE (Project folder Deputy may read and edit. Defaults to the client's project folder), DEPUTY_API_KEY (API key for a non-DeepInfra endpoint. Takes precedence over DEEPINFRA_API_KEY).
