Deepwiki MCP Server

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: This server is currently not working since DeepWiki has cut off the possibility to scrape it. We recommend using the official DeepWiki MCP server at https://docs.devin.ai/work-with-devin/deepwiki-mcp for the time being.

This is an unofficial Deepwiki MCP Server

It takes a Deepwiki URL via MCP, crawls all relevant pages, converts them to Markdown, and returns either one document or a list by page.

基于原项目: 此项目基于 deepwiki-mcp 修改而来

Features

  • 🔒 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: Get one document or structured pages

  • 🚀 Performance: Fast crawling with adjustable concurrency and depth

  • NLP: It's to search just for the library name

MCP Tool Integration

The package registers a tool named deepwiki_fetch that you can use with any MCP-compatible client:

{
  "action": "deepwiki_fetch",
  "params": {
    "url": "https://deepwiki.com/user/repo",
    "mode": "aggregate",
    "maxDepth": "1"
  }
}

Parameters

  • url (required): The starting URL of the Deepwiki repository

  • mode (optional): Output mode, either "aggregate" for a single Markdown document (default) or "pages" for structured page data

  • maxDepth (optional): Maximum depth of pages to crawl (default: 10)

Response Format

Success Response (Aggregate Mode)

{
  "status": "ok",
  "data": "# Page Title\n\nPage content...\n\n---\n\n# Another Page\n\nMore content...",
  "totalPages": 5,
  "totalBytes": 25000,
  "elapsedMs": 1200
}

Success Response (Pages Mode)

{
  "status": "ok",
  "data": [
    {
      "path": "index",

}

    {
      "url": "https://deepwiki.com/user/repo/page2",
      "reason": "HTTP error: 404"
    }
  ],
  "totalPages": 1,
  "totalBytes": 5000,

}

Progress Events

When using the tool, you'll receive progress events during crawling:

Local Development - Installation

Local Usage

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-deepwiki": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["./bin/cli.mjs"]
    }
  }
}

From Source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/BACH-AI-Tools/deepwiki-mcp.git
cd deepwiki-mcp

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the package
npm run build

Direct API Calls

For HTTP transport, you can make direct API calls:

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "id": "req-1",
    "action": "deepwiki_fetch",
    "params": {
      "url": "https://deepwiki.com/user/repo",
      "mode": "aggregate"
    }
  }'

Configuration

Environment Variables

  • DEEPWIKI_MAX_CONCURRENCY: Maximum concurrent requests (default: 5)

  • DEEPWIKI_REQUEST_TIMEOUT: Request timeout in milliseconds (default: 30000)

  • DEEPWIKI_MAX_RETRIES: Maximum retry attempts for failed requests (default: 3)

  • DEEPWIKI_RETRY_DELAY: Base delay for retry backoff in milliseconds (default: 250)

To configure these, create a .env file in the project root:

DEEPWIKI_MAX_CONCURRENCY=10
DEEPWIKI_REQUEST_TIMEOUT=60000
DEEPWIKI_MAX_RETRIES=5
DEEPWIKI_RETRY_DELAY=500

Docker Deployment (Untested)

Build and run the Docker image:

# Build the image
docker build -t mcp-deepwiki .

# Run with stdio transport (for development)
docker run -it --rm mcp-deepwiki

# Run with HTTP transport (for production)
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 mcp-deepwiki --http --port 3000

# Run with environment variables
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
  -e DEEPWIKI_MAX_CONCURRENCY=10 \
  -e DEEPWIKI_REQUEST_TIMEOUT=60000 \
  mcp-deepwiki --http --port 3000

Development

# Install dependencies
pnpm install

# Run in development mode with stdio
pnpm run dev-stdio

# Run tests
pnpm test

# Run linter
pnpm run lint

# Build the package
pnpm run build

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Permission Denied: If you get EACCES errors when running the CLI, make sure to make the binary executable:

    chmod +x ./node_modules/.bin/mcp-deepwiki

  2. Connection Refused: Make sure the port is available and not blocked by a firewall:

    # Check if port is in use
lsof -i :3000

  3. Timeout Errors: For large repositories, consider increasing the timeout and concurrency:

    DEEPWIKI_REQUEST_TIMEOUT=60000 DEEPWIKI_MAX_CONCURRENCY=10 npx mcp-deepwiki
