Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Deepseek Thinker MCP ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install and run the server via npx -y deepseek-thinker-mcp or build locally with npm install && npm run build then run node build/index.js. Configure it in your client’s MCP settings, e.g., claude_desktop_config.json, setting environment variables for either OpenAI API mode (API_KEY, BASE_URL) or Ollama mode (USE_OLLAMA=true). Invoke the get-deepseek-thinker tool, providing an originPrompt string, to receive structured reasoning output.
