DeepSeek's API now accepts Anthropic SDK format at api.deepseek.com/anthropic — meaning Claude Code, the Anthropic Python/TS SDK, and any Anthropic-native client can now route requests to DeepSeek V4 models without an OpenAI wrapper.
Moonshot AI releases Kimi K2.6 with state-of-the-art long-horizon coding, multimodal input (text, images, video), 256K context, and a fully OpenAI-compatible API — directly affecting how engineering teams route coding-agent workloads.
Alibaba Cloud's new Qwen-MT turbo model arrives via OpenAI-compatible endpoints, but its translation controls live inside extra_body — a pattern that breaks any middleware that strips non-standard fields. Here's what routing teams need to watch.
Alibaba Cloud's Qwen3.7-Max claims the top spot on Terminal Bench 2.0, outperforms Claude Opus 4.6 on GPQA Diamond, and completes a 35-hour autonomous agent task on novel hardware. Here's the operator angle for teams routing Qwen traffic.
DeepSeek published an official integration guide for Claude Code, OpenCode, and OpenClaw — revealing a per-tier model routing pattern that operators can apply across any Anthropic-compatible gateway.
