   • Provider: DeepSeek
   • API Endpoint: https://api.deepseek.com
   • API Key: (your DeepSeek API key)
   • Model: deepseek-chat
6. Click 🔍 測試連線 to test
7. Click 儲存 then 啟用

Method 2: Via Script

📊 API Endpoints

All endpoints require admin authentication:

GET    /api/llm-config              # List all configs
GET    /api/llm-config/active       # Get active config
POST   /api/llm-config              # Create config
PUT    /api/llm-config/:id          # Update config
PUT    /api/llm-config/:id/activate # Activate config
DELETE /api/llm-config/:id          # Delete config
POST   /api/llm-config/test         # Test connection

---

🎯 How It Works

1. Configuration Storage

   • LLM configs stored in llm_configs table
   • Only one config can be active at a time
   • API keys encrypted in database (recommended for production)

2. Analysis Flow

   • When user creates 5 Why analysis
   • Backend fetches active LLM config from database
   • Makes API call to configured provider
   • Returns analysis results

3. Fallback Mechanism

   • If no database config exists
   • Falls back to Ollama config from .env
   • Ensures system always works

---

🔒 Security Features

• ✅ Admin-only access to LLM configuration
• ✅ API keys never returned in GET requests
• ✅ Audit logging for all config changes
• ✅ Test endpoint validates credentials safely
• ✅ Cannot delete active configuration
• ✅ Environment variable support for sensitive data
