DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731, released July 31, 2026, is the retrained checkpoint of DeepSeek-V4-Flash and the version that took the V4-Flash API into public beta. The architecture is unchanged, the same lightweight 284-billion-parameter sparse MoE with 13 billion active parameters per token and a one-million-token context window, so the gains come entirely from a substantially improved post-training pipeline focused on coding, agents, reasoning, and tool use. The jump is large: DeepSeek reports the 0731 build beating its own bigger V4-Pro-Preview across nine agent benchmarks, with Terminal Bench 2.1 rising from 61.8 to 82.7 and DeepSWE from 7.3 to 54.4 over the original Flash release. It keeps the three reasoning modes (non-think, think-high, think-max) and the XML-based tool-call format that preserves reasoning content across tool-call boundaries. For teams already running the original deepseek-v4-flash, this checkpoint is the drop-in successor, same shape, same interface, markedly stronger agentic behaviour, and it is what the rolling deepseek-v4-flash-latest alias currently serves.
