Deepseek Thinker MCP Server
A MCP provider Deepseek reasoning content to MCP-enabled AI Clients, like Claude Desktop. Supports access to Deepseek's CoT from the Deepseek API service or a local Ollama server.
what is Deepseek Thinker MCP?
Deepseek Thinker MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) provider that delivers Deepseek reasoning content to MCP-enabled AI clients, such as Claude Desktop. It allows access to Deepseek's thought processes via the Deepseek API service or a local Ollama server.
how to use Deepseek Thinker MCP?
To use Deepseek Thinker MCP, integrate it with an AI client by configuring the claude_desktop_config.json
file with the necessary command and environment variables. You can also run it in Ollama mode or configure it for local server use.
key features of Deepseek Thinker MCP?
- Dual Mode Support: OpenAI API mode and Ollama local mode.
- Focused Reasoning: Captures and provides reasoning output from Deepseek's thinking process.
use cases of Deepseek Thinker MCP?
- Enhancing AI client capabilities with Deepseek's reasoning.
- Supporting complex reasoning tasks in AI applications.
- Facilitating local AI model interactions through Ollama.
FAQ from Deepseek Thinker MCP?
- What should I do if I encounter "MCP error -32001: Request timed out"?
This error indicates that the Deepseek API response is slow or the reasoning output is too lengthy, causing a timeout.
- Is there a specific tech stack used for this project?
Yes, the project uses TypeScript, OpenAI API, Ollama, and Zod for parameter validation.
