deepwiki

deepwiki is a skill for Claude Code from qazi0/claude-plugins. It costs 0 tokens per session (449 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for exploring public GitHub repositories through their documentation and question-and-answer features. GitHub is a website where developers publish and collaborate on source code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn a project's architecture, understand how a library works, find implementation details, or prepare to contribute code.
Why use it?
It helps you understand an unfamiliar codebase without searching through every file yourself. You can inspect its documented structure or ask focused technical questions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

deepwiki scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DeepWiki Skill

Use DeepWiki to explore and understand GitHub repositories through AI-powered documentation and Q&A.

When to Use DeepWiki

Use the DeepWiki MCP tools when you need to:

  • Understand the architecture of an unfamiliar GitHub repository
  • Learn how a library or framework works
  • Find specific implementation details in open-source projects
  • Get context about a codebase before making contributions
  • Answer technical questions about public repositories

Available Tools

read_wiki_structure

Get the documentation structure/table of contents for a repository.

Use this first to understand what documentation is available.

repo_name: "owner/repo" (e.g., "facebook/react", "vercel/next.js")

read_wiki_contents

Read specific documentation content from the wiki.

Use after read_wiki_structure to dive into specific topics.

repo_name: "owner/repo"
topic: "topic-name" (from the structure)

ask_question

Ask an AI-powered question about the repository.

Best for specific questions when you know what you're looking for.

repo_name: "owner/repo"
question: "How does authentication work in this project?"

Best Practices

  1. Start with structure: Always call read_wiki_structure first to see what's available
  2. Be specific: When using ask_question, ask focused questions for better answers
  3. Use repo format: Always use owner/repo format (e.g., anthropics/claude-code)
  4. Public repos only: DeepWiki only works with public GitHub repositories that have been indexed

Example Workflow

  1. User asks about a repository
  2. Call read_wiki_structure to get the documentation overview
  3. Identify relevant sections from the structure
  4. Call read_wiki_contents for detailed information
  5. Use ask_question for specific queries not covered in docs

Limitations

  • Only works with public GitHub repositories
  • Repository must be indexed on DeepWiki.com
  • For private repos, users need a Devin account

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

deepwiki is a skill published in the GitHub repository qazi0/claude-plugins (8 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 449 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
