The Gliding Horse (流马) agent harness has announced support for the DeepSeek Responses API through a recent commit. This integration allows developers using the harness to connect with DeepSeek's language models, broadening the range of AI backends available for agent-based applications. The update modifies core components including the unified gateway and streaming modules, suggesting a well-integrated implementation rather than a superficial wrapper. For developers building AI agents, this means more flexibility in choosing model providers and potentially lower costs or better performance depending on the use case. The commit also includes configuration updates, making it straightforward to switch to DeepSeek as a backend. This move reflects the growing trend of multi-provider support in agent frameworks, as developers seek to avoid vendor lock-in and optimize for specific tasks. The Gliding Horse project continues to evolve as a practical tool for agent development.
The Gliding Horse agent harness now supports the DeepSeek Responses API, expanding its compatibility for AI agent developers.
