DeepSeek-Reasonix is an open-source dev tools project by esengine (esengine/DeepSeek-Reasonix on GitHub). It has 35,749 GitHub stars and 2,438 forks, is released under the MIT license, and was last updated on GitHub on 8 October 2026.
Decide what you want to achieve with DeepSeek-Reasonix and check the README on GitHub for requirements before installing.
Clone the repository from GitHub (or take the packaged install route in step 3 if the README offers one).
Follow the project's documented install commands — the Run section below lists the exact ones — and add any required API keys or models.
Work through the README's quickstart example end to end, then adapt it to your own project or data.
Designed around DeepSeek models including R1-style reasoning, with prompt caching used to cut repeat-token costs.
A full terminal interface for planning, editing and running tools inside your repository.
The 2.x Studio adds a richer app experience on top of the same agent core.
An official extension brings Reasonix into the editor for inline workflows.
Supports tool calling and a plugin system (the repo's topics include dsh plugins) for extending the agent.
Install globally with npm i -g reasonix or brew install esengine/reasonix/reasonix — no runtime juggling.
Get the source if you want to build or inspect it; most users install the binary in the next step.
git clone https://github.com/esengine/DeepSeek-Reasonix.git
cd DeepSeek-ReasonixInstall the prebuilt native binary globally via npm (or Homebrew on macOS).
npm i -g reasonix
# macOS alternative: brew install esengine/reasonix/reasonixRun Reasonix in your project, add your DeepSeek API key when prompted, and give it a first task.
reasonixDeepSeek-Reasonix is maintained by the esengine organization/account on GitHub, together with open-source contributors, in the public repository esengine/DeepSeek-Reasonix.
Yes — the code is open source under the MIT license. You can use, modify and redistribute it under that license's terms.
Yes — Reasonix is free and open source, but it drives DeepSeek's hosted models, so you need a DeepSeek API key and pay DeepSeek's (low) per-token rates.
Those agents center on Anthropic/OpenAI models; Reasonix is purpose-built for DeepSeek, leaning on its prompt caching to make long agent sessions much cheaper.
Clone the repository from GitHub, follow the install commands in the Run section (taken from the project's README), and complete the documented quickstart example before adapting it to your own use case.
