Changes

Bounded correction for completed invalid responses, stronger tool-envelope validation, DeepSeek provider integration with stable session identity and saved-credential resolution, and a dark-by-default offline HTML handbook.

Verification boundaries

Automated API/recovery checks (152 assertions), updater checks (28 assertions), JavaScript transport/model/session suites, helper archive/install/backup tests, and published Cordis runtime checks passed. Installer build, payload integrity, and SHA-256 were verified. This final v0.4.0 installer has not received a fresh end-to-end installation/live generation test. Latest installed live evidence used bridge v0.3.4, Pro, perplexity-claude55sonnetthinking. The DeepSeek runtime tool loop passed using a harmless QA dispatcher; full Harness UI installation/built-in tool execution and full OpenCode UI execution remain unverified. Free/Max generation and live multi-account quota failover remain unverified.

This is an experimental web-session adapter with prompt-translated tools and buffered streaming. It is not the official Perplexity API. Creating this release does not configure the app updater feed.
