DeepSeek informally deploys DeepSeek-V3.2-Speciale API service

DeepSeek-V3.2-Speciale

DeepSeek informally deployed a DeepSeek-V3.2-Speciale API at unchanged pricing, supporting only conversation in thinking mode and no tool calling or other features. Users can reach the model by setting base_url="https://api.deepseek.com/v3.2_speciale_expires_on_20251215". Maximum output defaults to 128K, and the service runs until 23:59 Beijing time on December 15, 2025.

Why it matters: DeepSeek's informal deployment supports only thinking-mode conversation, and the missing tool calls plus the time limit together bound what this service can be used for.
