The Octagon Deep Research MCP server adds powerful, AI-driven deep research capabilities to any MCP client. It lets you run unlimited, parallel deep-dive analyses across multiple domains, pulling from high-quality sources and cross-verifying results to deliver thorough research reports quickly.

How to use

Set up Octagon Deep Research MCP once you have your API key, then enable it in your MCP client to start querying. You can describe your research needs in natural language and the MCP will perform multi-source analysis, synthesize findings, and generate structured insights across topics like technology, healthcare, environment, business, policy, and more.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need Node.js with npm and npx installed on your system.

Install and run the MCP server locally using npx. This starts the Deep Research MCP and makes it available to your MCP clients.

env OCTAGON_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE npx -y octagon-deep-research-mcp
```

Note: Use your actual Octagon API key where it says YOUR_API_KEY_HERE.

Additional sections

Configuration and key details are summarized here for quick setup and safe operation.

Environment variable you must provide: OCTAGON_API_KEY. This key authenticates requests to Octagon Deep Research services.

Example MCP connection (stdio) you can use in your client configuration to run the Deep Research MCP directly from the command line: the full command uses npx to launch octagon-deep-research-mcp with the API key provided via environment variable.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "octagon_deep_research_mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "octagon-deep-research-mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "OCTAGON_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

This allows compatible MCP clients to invoke deep research tasks directly through the MCP server.
