kamelirzouni/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
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:

API Usage
The Temperature Parameter
The default value of temperature is 0.2.
Deepseek recommends setting the temperature according to your specific use case:
| USE CASE | TEMPERATURE | EXAMPLE |
|----------|-------------|---------|
| Coding / Math | 0.0 | Code generation, mathematical calculations |
| Data Cleaning / Data Analysis | 1.0 | Data processing tasks |
| General Conversation | 1.3 | Chat and dialogue |
| Translation | 1.3 | Language translation |
| Creative Writing / Poetry | 1.5 | Story writing, poetry generation |
Error Handling
The server provides detailed error messages for common issues:
- API authentication errors
- Invalid parameters
- Rate limiting
- Network issues
