DeepWiki MCP server

DeepWiki × Claude

Use the DeepWiki MCP server
in Claude

Ask questions about any public GitHub repo's documentation and architecture. This guide connects DeepWiki to Claude (claude.ai and the Claude desktop app) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · No sign-in required

Setup: DeepWiki in Claude

Claude adds MCP servers via custom connectors in Settings. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Create a free gate gateway and connect DeepWiki to it from the verified directory (one click).
  2. Open claude.ai → Settings → Connectors and click 'Add custom connector'.
  3. Name it 'gate' and paste your gateway URL, then approve the authorization.
  4. Ask Claude something DeepWiki can answer — the call runs through your gateway, with your rules applied and logged.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same DeepWiki connection works in Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool DeepWiki exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Claude did with DeepWiki — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

DeepWiki passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
