DeepSeek Harness gives 6 RMB in free credit again when you sign in, valid for 7 days

DeepSeek Harness 0.2.1 shipped on October 17 with support for the new DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 model, and DeepSeek is running another round of its 6 RMB free credit promotion. Eligible users get 6 RMB in credit the first time they sign in to DeepSeek Harness, with no top-up needed, so you can try the new model right away.

What you get

• Each eligible account gets 6 RMB in credit, valid for 7 days after it arrives. Credits are limited and go out first come, first served.
• DeepSeek accounts registered before the promotion started are eligible. Accounts registered after it started must sign up with a mainland China (+86) mobile number, and virtual number ranges don't count.
• Each phone number can claim only once, so accounts that claimed in the previous round may not get it again.
• At V4.1 Flash off-peak prices, 6 RMB covers roughly 120 million cache-hit input tokens, 1.48 million cache-miss input tokens, and 520,000 output tokens. How far it goes depends on your tasks and when you run them.

How to claim

1. Download the desktop app from the DeepSeek Harness site, or update your install to 0.2.1-rc.1 or later.
2. Sign in to DeepSeek Harness with your DeepSeek account to receive the 6 RMB credit.
3. If you were already signed in before the promotion started, sign out and sign back in.

Installers are available for macOS (Apple silicon) and Windows (64-bit). Release notes are on GitHub.
