DeepWiki MCP
How to use the official DeepWiki MCP server.
The DeepWiki MCP server provides programmatic access to DeepWiki’s repository documentation (Devin Wiki) and search capabilities (Devin Search).
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI apps to securely connect to MCP-compatible data sources and tools. You can think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications - a standardized way to connect AI apps to different services.
