Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

[](https://mseep.ai/app/66julienmartin-mcp-server-deepseek-r1)

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for the Deepseek R1 language model. Deepseek R1 is a powerful language model optimized for reasoning tasks with a context window of 8192 tokens.

Why Node.js? This implementation uses Node.js/TypeScript as it provides the most stable integration with MCP servers. The Node.js SDK offers better type safety, error handling, and compatibility with Claude Desktop.

Quick Start

Installing manually

# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/66julienmartin/MCP-server-Deepseek_R1.git
cd deepseek-r1-mcp
npm install

# Set up environment
cp .env.example .env  # Then add your API key

# Build and run
npm run build

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (v18 or higher)
  • npm
  • Claude Desktop
  • Deepseek API key

Model Selection

By default, this server uses the deepseek-R1 model. If you want to use DeepSeek-V3 instead, modify the model name in src/index.ts:

// For DeepSeek-R1 (default)
model: "deepseek-reasoner"

// For DeepSeek-V3
model: "deepseek-chat"

Questions

What is the Deepseek R1 MCP server?

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation connecting Claude Desktop with DeepSeek's language models (R1/V3)

What tools does Deepseek R1 expose?

1 in total: 1 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is Deepseek R1 safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.

What credentials does Deepseek R1 need?

It reads DEEPSEEK_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does Deepseek R1 run?

It speaks stdio, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as deepseek_r1 at 1.0.0.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (892c29c45f9b), read on 2026-10-07. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
