Leading company in the AI field, DeepSeek (Deep Seek), has recently launched its new code intelligent agent (Coding Agent) business. According to information from its official website and senior researcher Chen Deli, DeepSeek is currently forming a "Harness" team to fully develop a desktop intelligent agent programming product, with its internal core competitor being Claude Code, a star tool from Anthropic.

Currently, DeepSeek's Beijing headquarters has posted key positions such as Agent Harness product manager and R&D engineer, clearly requiring applicants to have deep experience using mainstream AI agent tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Manus, as well as experience in vibe coding and other cutting-edge development practices.

Against the backdrop of the basic large model benefits gradually entering deeper waters, code intelligent agents have become one of the fastest-growing and most valuable fields for large model commercialization. Data shows that the global AI programming tools market reached 29.57 billion USD in 2025, and is expected to rise to 64.68 billion USD by 2030. As a benchmark in this field, Anthropic's Claude Code achieved an annualized revenue of over 2.5 billion USD within less than a year of its release, and has seen a doubling growth since early 2026.

Facing competition from domestic and international giants such as ByteDance Trae and Alibaba Tongyi Lingma, DeepSeek's high-profile entry marks its accelerated expansion from pure technical research to product ecosystems and commercialization. Top-tier programming intelligent agents are not only a test of foundational model capabilities but also a key gateway to capturing the developer ecosystem. By leveraging its base model advantages, DeepSeek's code intelligent agent has the potential to break the current AI programming market landscape and further accelerate the deep penetration of large models into productivity areas.
