Prerequisites

  .
• Network access to

  mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp

brew install uxc

Core Workflow

1. Use fixed link command by default:

   • command -v deepwiki-mcp-cli

   • If missing, create it:

     uxc link deepwiki-mcp-cli mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp

   • deepwiki-mcp-cli -h

   • If command conflict is detected and cannot be safely reused, stop and ask skill maintainers to pick a different fixed command name.
2. Ask a question about a repository:

   • deepwiki-mcp-cli ask_question repoName=owner/repo question='your question'

3. Read wiki structure:

   • deepwiki-mcp-cli read_wiki_structure repoName=owner/repo

4. Read wiki contents:

   • deepwiki-mcp-cli read_wiki_contents repoName=owner/repo

Available Tools

• ask_question: Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered response
• read_wiki_structure: Get a list of documentation topics for a repository
• read_wiki_contents: View documentation about a repository

Usage Examples

Ask about a codebase

deepwiki-mcp-cli ask_question repoName=facebook/react question='How does useState work?'

Explore repository structure

deepwiki-mcp-cli read_wiki_structure '{"repoName":"facebook/react"}'

Read documentation

deepwiki-mcp-cli read_wiki_contents repoName=facebook/react

Output Parsing

.data.content[].text

Notes

• Maximum 10 repositories per question
• Some popular repositories may already be indexed
• Responses are grounded in the actual codebase

• deepwiki-mcp-cli <operation> ...

  is equivalent to

  uxc mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp <operation> ...

  .
• If link setup is temporarily unavailable, use direct

  uxc mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp ...

  calls as fallback.
