Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/5525
How are you running AnythingLLM?
AnythingLLM desktop app
What happened?
I'm trying to load DeepSeek V4 Flash into Anything LLM and use it for chat completions, but the runtime fails with:
"Could not respond to message."
"DeepSeek chat: deepseek-chat is not valid for chat completion!"
Expected behavior:
Anything LLM should accept a chat-capable DeepSeek model and allow chat completions.
The error suggests the model is being treated as a chat model but the loaded artifact does not expose the chat completion interface the runtime expects.
Are there known steps to reproduce?
Download DeepSeek V4 Flash model artifacts
Configure Anything LLM to use the model as a chat model (model name: deepseek-v4-pro / deepseek-v4-flash-chat).
Send a chat completion request through the Anything LLM interface.
LLM Provider & Model (if applicable)
Anything LLM version: 1.12.0 Ubuntu
Model artifact variant tested: DeepSeek V4 Flash, DeepSeek V4 Pro
Embedder Provider & Model (if applicable)

Moving to #5509
@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Apr 24, 2026):
Note: If you manually set the DEEPSEEK_MODEL_PREF ENV in the appropriate env file location
Docker - this is in your storage folder you use with the container
Desktop- https://docs.anythingllm.com/installation-desktop/storage should be potentially invisible .env file.
Edit this file, restart container or kill & restart app.
This will allow you to still use these deprecated models despite the fact the Deepseek official API does not show them - everything will still work while we work on https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/5509 for official support and also bringing that patch to desktop!
Valid values for legacy models are:
deepseek-reasonerordeepseek-chat
