ThriceGate · 三思
One OpenAI-compatible gateway. The same DeepSeek, but it thinks three times before it answers.
Change the base_url and you are on ThriceGate. Use the model directly when you want speed, Sansi when you want it right the first time, and the guard to check text before it reaches a model.

Sansi (three-pass)deepseek-flash-three-pass | The same DeepSeek V4 Flash, but it drafts, reviews, and revises only when it finds a defect, with mechanical gates on top.

Three lines
Sansi: draft, review, revise
Sansi drafts, reviews, and revises only when it finds a defect, and mechanical gates catch empty or unparseable output and send it back with the error position. On 7 real editing tickets run 8 times each (2026-10-02), first-pass success went from 41/56 for DeepSeek direct to 50/56 (p=0.026), at about 1.8x the median time and spend. We re-run the same benchmark whenever a new model ships and switch the base model if it is stronger.
Guard: four booleans, fail-closed
xjp-guard-1 checks one piece of text with a judge model and answers with booleans only: allowed, nsfw, injection, judge_error. If the judge cannot finish, the answer is a refusal and the call costs nothing. It is billed by estimated tokens, in units of $0.003.
Vision: editing footage understanding
cuthub-vision-1 reads footage for editors: probe, shot boundaries, per-shot cards, and a per-second look sheet, with frames as the ground truth. It is not on sale yet. Request a trial.
