Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at deadlink-checker-mcp on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
The server publishes 4 tools. What each one is for:
Cursor — Add to MCP settings: json { "mcpServers": { "deadlink-checker": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "deadlink-checker-mcp"] } } }check_links — The check_links tool exposed by this serverdeep_scan — Recursively crawl internal pages and check all discovered linkscheck_sitemap — The check_sitemap tool exposed by this serverAmong the search and retrieval options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Deadlink Checker MCP's toolset — Cursor, check_links, deep_scan and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by yifanyifan897645; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
