How do I install the deepview mcp server?

Use a recorded configuration for your client, replace example credential values and paths, and verify the documented runtime. Restart or reconnect the client, then inspect the available tools.

What credentials does it need?

It reads `GEMINI_API_KEY` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.

What is the DeepView MCP Server?

DeepView MCP lets Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients work with DeepView MCP directly. Enables IDEs like Cursor and Windsurf to analyze large codebases using Gemini's 1M context window.

What DeepView MCP does

DeepView MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that enables IDEs like Cursor and Windsurf to analyze large codebases using Gemini's extensive context window.

Key capabilities

Load an entire codebase from a single text file (e.g., created with tools like repomix)
Query the codebase using Gemini's large context window
Connect to IDEs that support the MCP protocol, like Cursor and Windsurf
Configurable Gemini model selection via command-line arguments

Requirements

Python 3.13+ - Gemini API key from Google AI Studio

Practical notes

Written in Python.
