VC Deal Flow Scout — DeepSeek Edition

![Built with @gitdealflow/mcp-signal](https://signals.gitdealflow.com/built-with)

A demo of DeepSeek-V3 plugged into the public GitDealFlow MCP server. Ask any question about startup engineering acceleration on GitHub — the agent calls live tools and returns cited answers.

Why DeepSeek? Open-weight + open-MCP = a fully open-source VC research stack. No proprietary inference, no closed data, no tracking. The same agent loop runs locally with deepseek-v3 self-hosted.

What you can ask

  • —"What AI/ML startups are accelerating fastest this month?"
  • —"Compare engineering momentum at three competing infra companies"
  • —"Find dark horses in fintech with breakout signals but low public visibility"
  • —"Show me security startups whose contributor count grew 2x in 90 days"
  • —"Explain the GitDealFlow methodology"

Tools available to the agent

ToolWhat it does
get_trending_startupsTop 20 startups across all sectors by commit-velocity acceleration
search_startups_by_sectorDrill into one of 20 sectors
get_startup_signalFull profile by startup name
get_signals_summaryDataset snapshot + citation
get_scout_receiptsScout Score 0-100 for any GitHub username
get_methodologyFull methodology document

All tools are read-only, idempotent, and public (no auth required for read access). The MCP server is also reachable directly at https://signals.gitdealflow.com/api/mcp/rpc.

How this Space works

  1. 1.DeepSeek-V3 runs on Hugging Face Inference Providers (Together AI / Fireworks fallback)
  2. 2.GitDealFlow MCP server is reached over HTTPS at signals.gitdealflow.com/api/mcp/rpc
  3. 3.Gradio UI wraps the chat loop and renders the agent's tool calls

The agent loop is ~80 lines of Python. See `app.py`.
