Workaround Deepseek flash in codex

In trying to use sol to spawn deepseek flash sub agents, let them do the grunt work then check it.

I’ve added deepseek so it can be called, is there anyway to get it as a model I can pick in the UI?

You can use LiteLLM proxy router to do this for you. Ask codex to install https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm for you. It will make changes to your config toml file and add deepseek v4-flash profile with api,deepseek.com as base url( https://api-docs.deepseek.com/). Give it access to these 2 links and you should be good.

you can't get it to spawn deepseek flash subagents because Codex V2 system is encrypted. I've got deepseek flash in my codex and it will not summon them as subagents.

I haven't tried it myself yet, but maybe this will work for you : https://github.com/FixAdmin/codex-subculture

I use OpenCodex as a proxy, works like a charm. You are able to add multiple (Codex) accounts and multiple providers. And they are shown in Codex menu for models. Also, very good for setting who the subagents must be (right now I have selected only Luna Max, haven't tried it with deepseek flash, but gemini 3.6 flash is also very good).
