DeepSeek Bot Builds Persistent AI Teams

The compelling idea is not another chatbot, but a lightweight operating model for AI coworkers with durable context and explicit coordination.

• –Persistent Markdown memory gives each bot a reusable identity, role, and working context.
• –Chief and group-chat administration route tasks to specialists without making every bot respond to every message.
• –Per-bot model selection enables practical tradeoffs between capability, latency, and cost.
• –Local storage improves inspectability and ownership, while the plugin’s broad file and command permissions require careful review.
• –Group collaboration still consumes more tokens, and the project remains dependent on the early-stage DeepSeek Harness ecosystem.
