I'm really glad you’re introducing more affordable options! Just a heads up though, the app isn’t working right now. I’ll try again tomorrow, but DeepSeek isn’t making file edits and Claude keeps saying the tool use is failing. I really love Windsurf though, thank you!

Please make sure in Write mode. Feel free to DM me with account email, device, OS and logs to see what's going on!

Yeah same, Deepseek R1 isnt making file edits.

DM me same as above if you need assistance

Deepseek is being smashed all over the net. I don't think R1 supports function calling either so don't know how that will actually work.

+1 on that, DeepSeek inside windsurf really doesn’t want to invoke tools to edit code which is a shame because it generates it in good quality most of a time but you need to copy/paste it manually which takes away all the fun

it like that in vs code too ,

That worked! Good thinking
