MCP Server Setup

export DEEPGRAM_API_KEY="your-api-key"

Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "deepgram": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["deepctl", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Or with an explicit API key:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "deepgram": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["deepctl", "--api-key", "YOUR_KEY", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "deepgram": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["deepctl", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "deepgram": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["deepctl", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Alternative: pipx

Replace uvx with pipx run in any of the above configurations:

{
  "command": "pipx",
  "args": ["run", "deepctl", "mcp"]
}

Alternative: Local development

If running from a local clone of the repository:

{
  "command": "uv",
  "args": ["run", "dg", "mcp"]
}

Transport modes

By default the MCP server uses stdio (for editor integration). You can also run it as an HTTP server:

# SSE transport
deepctl mcp --transport sse --port 8000
