| What it does | Reasoning-mode completion against DeepSeek's `deepseek-reasoner` model (R1) via /v1/chat/completions. Surfaces the model's chain-of-thought (`reasoning_content`) separately from the final answer (`content`), so callers can display or discard the CoT without re-parsing. Reads DEEPSEEK_API_KEY; degrades gracefully (exit 0 with status:degraded envelope) when unset or the API is unreachable. Ignores temperature/top_p per DeepSeek's spec for reasoner models. | Write a commit message following Zulip's format. Use whenever writing or rewording any commit message. |
