kshitijk4poor ef754d75ba refactor(commandcode): resolve the native DeepSeek profile through the registry
The delegation imported ``plugins.model_providers.deepseek`` — the only cross-plugin
module import in the tree, and one that resolves solely through the loader's
sys.modules shim (popped again if the deepseek plugin fails to load). Look the
profile up with get_provider_profile("deepseek") instead: already imported from
``providers``, honours a user override of the profile, degrades to the base no-op
without a try/except.

Drop the ``len(m) <= len("deepseek/")`` guard — the native profile returns
({}, {}) for an empty id anyway. Bind the expected value in the parity test and
assert it is non-empty so the equality cannot pass as ({}, {}) == ({}, {}).

Model Provider Plugins

Each subdirectory is a self-contained provider profile plugin. The directory layout mirrors plugins/platforms/:

plugins/model-providers/
├── openrouter/
│   ├── __init__.py      # registers the ProviderProfile
│   └── plugin.yaml      # manifest: name, kind, version, description
├── anthropic/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   └── plugin.yaml
└── ...

How discovery works

providers/__init__.py._discover_providers() scans this directory (and $HERMES_HOME/plugins/model-providers/) the first time anything calls get_provider_profile() or list_providers(). Each __init__.py is imported and expected to call providers.register_provider(profile).

User plugins at $HERMES_HOME/plugins/model-providers/<name>/ override bundled plugins of the same name — last-writer-wins in register_provider(). Drop a file there to replace a built-in.

Adding a new provider

  1. Create plugins/model-providers/<your_provider>/__init__.py:

    from providers import register_provider
    from providers.base import ProviderProfile
    
    my_provider = ProviderProfile(
        name="your-provider",
        aliases=("alias1", "alias2"),
        display_name="Your Provider",
        description="One-line description shown in the setup picker",
        signup_url="https://your-provider.example.com/keys",
        env_vars=("YOUR_PROVIDER_API_KEY", "YOUR_PROVIDER_BASE_URL"),
        base_url="https://api.your-provider.example.com/v1",
        default_aux_model="your-cheap-model",
    )
    
    register_provider(my_provider)
    
  2. Create plugins/model-providers/<your_provider>/plugin.yaml:

    name: your-provider-profile
    kind: model-provider
    version: 1.0.0
    description: Short sentence about the provider
    author: Your Name
    

Nothing else needs to change. auth.py, config.py, models.py, doctor.py, model_metadata.py, runtime_provider.py, and the chat_completions transport all auto-wire from the registry.

Non-trivial profiles

Override the ProviderProfile hooks in a subclass for per-provider quirks — see plugins/model-providers/openrouter/__init__.py for build_extra_body and build_api_kwargs_extras examples, and plugins/model-providers/gemini/__init__.py for thinking_config translation.
