Removes DeepSeek direct (5M / 30 days) and Inception Mercury (10M / 30 days) from ultra-cheap. Both were marked "signup bonus, then pay-as-you-go" but the user prefers a preset with zero deadline-style caveats anywhere — only sources whose terms don't expire. DeepSeek V4 Flash and R1 paid spillover stays available via OpenRouter pass-through (`deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash`, `deepseek-r1`), which is pure pay-as-you-go with no signup expiry. The user trades ~10% OR markup for one fewer account to manage. Provider count drops from 9 to 7 (5 enabled, 2 opt-in): groq, cerebras, zai, openrouter, xai (enabled) gemini (opt-in, trains on free data) nebius (opt-in, paid floor) Routing chains rewired: - default p3 was deepseek direct → now skipped (OR :free → OR paid) - think p3 was deepseek-reasoner direct → now skipped (OR R1 paid) - search p4 was deepseek direct → now OR DeepSeek V4 Flash - trivial p1 was Mercury → now Cerebras Llama 3.1 8B (1M tok/day) Tier guards updated: - complex (>100K input) : removed deepseek (now xai + openrouter only) - medium (>7K input) : removed deepseek (zai + groq + openrouter + xai) Doc preamble rewritten: - header: "4 ongoing free tiers" only, "no signup bonuses, no trial periods, no deadlines" - account requirements: removed DEEPSEEK_API_KEY and MERCURY_API_KEY sections - strategy: chains updated to reflect actual mappings Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
