DDeepWiki MCP (official, remote)

Vendor-hosted
Tested Cognition's hosted DeepWiki MCP at https://mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp (server DeepWiki 4.0.2). Initialize and tools/list worked with no account (3 read-only tools: read_wiki_structure, read_wiki_contents, ask_wiki_question). Real calls: read_wiki_structure listed the wiki pages for modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk and ask_wiki_question answered how the stdio client starts a server. Covers public GitHub repos only (private repos need a Devin account). Vendor-hosted, no public source: 65 cap, not source-audited.
Tool-call test (2026-11-11, direct MCP stdio client, no LLM): pass. 2 of 2 read calls passed anonymously. Evidence: live endpoint probe, Nov 11, 2026.
Cognition-hosted endpoint. Initialize and tools/list worked without sign-in (3 tools); read_wiki_structure and ask_wiki_question returned content for modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk. Source isn't public: vendor-hosted 65 cap (Our review, Nov 11, 2026).

What we tested and what we didn't

Methodology: how we test (vendor-hosted rule). A high score means it responds and its vendor documents and dates it, not that giving it access to your data carries no risk.
