## Introduction

### How to integrate DeepWiki MCP with Cursor
Cursor is one of the leading AI-powered code editors. It is built to help developers write, understand, and refactor code faster with AI assistance built directly into the editor.
And in this guide, I will explain the easiest and most secure way to connect your DeepWiki account to Cursor via Composio Connect, so it can explain this repository's authentication flow, summarize React source code structure, find API endpoints in FastAPI repo, and more without ever putting your account credentials at risk.

## TL;DR

### Why Composio?
- 1,000+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. Skip the work of building and maintaining integrations, Composio gives you instant access to a vast catalog of pre-built connectors.
- One MCP server for every app. Connect any of your applications on demand through a single endpoint, rather than juggling a separate server for each app.
- Smart, context-aware tool loading. Unlike traditional MCP servers that dump every available tool into the LLM context window, Composio searches for and loads only the tools relevant to the task at hand. A remote CLI workbench lets LLMs compose these tools into workflows for complex automation.

## Connect DeepWiki MCP to Cursor

### Connect DeepWiki to Cursor
Two ways to install — pick whichever you prefer.
### 1. Install with one click
Click the button below to add Composio to Cursor.
[↗Install in Cursor](cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=composio&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2Nvbm5lY3QuY29tcG9zaW8uZGV2L21jcCJ9&utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=cursor_install_button&utm_campaign=deepwiki_mcp&utm_content=DeepWiki)

  }
}
```

## What is the DeepWiki MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The DeepWiki MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your DeepWiki account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform DeepWiki operations on your behalf.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `DEEPWIKI_MCP_ASK_QUESTION` | Ask question | Ask any question about a GitHub repository and get an AI-powered, context-grounded response. Args: repoName: GitHub repository or list of repositories (max 10) in owner/repo format question: The question to ask about the repository |
| `DEEPWIKI_MCP_READ_WIKI_CONTENTS` | Read wiki contents | View documentation about a GitHub repository. Args: repoName: GitHub repository in owner/repo format (e.g. "facebook/react") |
| `DEEPWIKI_MCP_READ_WIKI_STRUCTURE` | Read wiki structure | Get a list of documentation topics for a GitHub repository. Args: repoName: GitHub repository in owner/repo format (e.g. "facebook/react") |

## Supported Triggers

None listed.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

Once connected, Cursor can access the DeepWiki MCP server via Composio to run the app actions you authorize, directly from your coding workflow.

## Complete Code

None listed.

## Conclusion

### Conclusion
You have successfully connected DeepWiki to Cursor using Composio Connect. Your agent can now use DeepWiki securely without exposing credentials in prompts or local scripts.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and DeepWiki MCP?

With a standalone DeepWiki MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of DeepWiki tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from DeepWiki and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Cursor?

Yes, you can. Cursor fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right DeepWiki tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for DeepWiki while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which DeepWiki scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your DeepWiki data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
