amitkot DeepWiki - External Repository Query Tool
Query any public repository to answer questions about its architecture, patterns, APIs, and internals.
Setup
First, check if DeepWiki is available:
deepwiki --help
If the command is not found, install it:
npm install -g @seflless/deepwiki
Then validate the installation:
deepwiki --help
Usage
Read the --help output to understand the current CLI syntax and available options, then use it to send your query.
The --help output is the source of truth for command syntax — do not assume flags or arguments, always refer to it.
Guidelines
- Be specific: Frame queries with enough context for a useful answer
- One topic per query: Ask focused questions rather than broad ones
- Use for external repos only: Do not use DeepWiki for the current working repository — use local tools (Grep, Read, Glob) instead
- Summarize results: After receiving DeepWiki output, synthesize the answer for the user rather than dumping raw output
