Overview

What is Deepwiki MCP Server?

Deepwiki MCP Server is an unofficial MCP server that takes a Deepwiki URL, crawls all relevant pages, converts them to Markdown, and returns either a single aggregated document or a structured list of pages. It is designed for developers who want to extract documentation from deepwiki.com repositories for use with AI tools and coding assistants.

How to use Deepwiki MCP Server?

Configure it in your MCP client (e.g., Cursor) by adding mcp-deepwiki to .cursor/mcp.json with the command npx -y mcp-deepwiki@latest. Then use prompts like deepwiki fetch <query>, use deepwiki <url>, or call the registered deepwiki_fetch tool with parameters url (required), mode (aggregate or pages), and maxDepth (optional, default 10).

Key features of Deepwiki MCP Server

Domain safety: only processes URLs from deepwiki.com.
HTML sanitization: strips headers, footers, navigation, scripts, and ads.
Link rewriting: adjusts links to work in Markdown.
Multiple output formats: single aggregated document or structured pages.
Fast crawling with adjustable concurrency and depth.
NLP support for searching by library name.

Use cases of Deepwiki MCP Server

Fetch complete documentation of a Deepwiki repository as one Markdown file.
Retrieve specific pages from a Deepwiki repo in a structured list.
Quickly understand how a library or tool works by crawling its Deepwiki docs.
Integrate Deepwiki documentation into AI coding assistants like Cursor for inline reference.

Frequently asked questions

What domains does Deepwiki MCP Server accept?

Only URLs from deepwiki.com are allowed. Any other domain will return a `DOMAIN_NOT_ALLOWED` error.

What output formats are available?

Two modes: `aggregate` (default) returns a single Markdown document with all pages concatenated; `pages` returns an array of objects each containing `path` and `markdown`.

How can I adjust crawling performance?

Set environment variables: `DEEPWIKI_MAX_CONCURRENCY` (default 5), `DEEPWIKI_REQUEST_TIMEOUT` (default 30000 ms), `DEEPWIKI_MAX_RETRIES` (default 3), and `DEEPWIKI_RETRY_DELAY` (default 250 ms).

What happens if some pages fail to crawl?

The server may return a partial success response with a `status` of `partial`, including successfully fetched data and a list of errors with URLs and reasons.

Does Deepwiki MCP Server emit progress events?

Yes, during crawling the tool sends progress events showing each fetched URL, byte size, request time, and HTTP status.
