Frequently asked questions

What is the DeepWiki MCP server?

The DeepWiki MCP server is an Developer Tools Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot, and other MCP-compatible AI agents use DeepWiki's tools remotely over a hosted MCP endpoint — no local install. It exposes DeepWiki's capabilities as tools the AI can call directly from your editor or CLI.

How do I connect to DeepWiki MCP?

DeepWiki is a hosted MCP server — no local install. Add its remote endpoint `https://mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp` to your client config under `mcpServers` (HTTP/SSE transport) and restart your client.

Is DeepWiki MCP free?

Yes. The DeepWiki MCP server is free and open source. You may still need a DeepWiki account or API key to connect the server to the underlying service, but the MCP layer itself has no MCPizy subscription cost.

Does DeepWiki MCP work with Cursor and Windsurf?

Yes. Any MCP-compatible client works — including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor (via `.cursor/mcp.json`), Windsurf, VS Code with Copilot Chat, and custom agents built on the MCP SDK. The same install command targets all of them; only the config file path differs.

    }
  }
}

Once installed, your AI agent can use DeepWiki's tools remotely over a hosted MCP endpoint — no local install directly inside your conversation. Typical use cases include asking Claude Code or Cursor to run DeepWiki operations, inspect results, chain DeepWiki with other MCP servers (see our Workflow Recipes), and automate repetitive developer tools tasks without leaving your editor.
