Connect Darash to your AI

Darash is a scripture research engine — 59 translations in 36 languages, Strong's Hebrew & Greek, morphology, cross-references and dictionaries — that any MCP client can call. Nothing to install; the hosted engine runs for you.

1Claude — on the web, on your desktop, and on your phone

This is the short way in. In Claude, add a custom connector, give it a name and paste the URL above, then sign in. Claude registers itself — Dynamic Client Registration is live — so there is no key to copy, no client secret and nothing to install. Set it up once on the web and it is already there when you open Claude on your phone, voice mode included.

Client ID (only if asked) app5TxwuoDopywi0H4 public — no secret

If a client asks for a Client ID, use the value above and leave the client secret blank.

2Run it on DeepSeek — the cheapest way

Two separate things, and they are easy to confuse. DeepSeek is the AI itself — the model that does the thinking and the writing. The DeepSeek Harness is the program you actually sit in front of: a free, open-source workspace that installs on your own computer — Windows, Mac or Linux — and opens in your browser, much like ChatGPT's window, except it is yours. The harness talks to the model on one side and to us on the other.

Why do it this way? Because it is the cheapest way to use Darash, Junifye and Lexifye. You pay DeepSeek directly for the model — cents per conversation, and only for what you use — and nothing more to anyone else beyond your Publifye subscription. There is no monthly AI fee stacked on top. As with any hosted AI, your conversations are sent to DeepSeek's servers to be answered.

A caution and a compliment, both earned. The Harness is **new and still in development** — DeepSeek themselves call it a preview and say things will change between versions, so expect the occasional rough edge. It is also one of the most talked-about tools of the year: more than 180,000 people starred it on GitHub within a fortnight of its release, mostly for how far it bends to fit whatever you point it at. Promising and fast-moving — not yet settled.

  1. Get your DeepSeek key first. Register at deepseek.com, top up a small amount — $5 goes a long way — and copy the API key it gives you. This pays for the model.
  2. Buy your Publifye access. Open the Darash store below, log in or create an account, and buy Darash Solo — or the Complete Trio if you want Darash, Junifye and Lexifye together on one key. Your API key appears in your account as soon as the purchase goes through.
  3. Install Node.js from nodejs.org — version 22 or newer. It brings npm, which you need next. The harness will not start on anything older.
  4. Open a terminal — PowerShell on Windows (press Start, type PowerShell, hit Enter), or Terminal on Mac and Linux — and run the first command below. It fetches and starts the harness and opens it in your browser, and asks for your DeepSeek key the first time. Run that same command every time you want to use it, and leave the window open while you work: closing it shuts the harness down.
  5. Hand it the MCP endpoint and your Publifye key, exactly as shown below. The harness writes its own connector — you never edit a file. Open a new chat afterwards, because tools load when a chat starts.
Fetches and starts the harness — the same command every time
npx @deepseek-ai/dsh web
Optional — install once, then start with just 'dsh web' (quicker, and pins the version)
npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh dsh web

Keep it fresh. Because it changes often, run one of the commands below every few weeks instead of the usual one. The `@latest` is what tells it to fetch the newest version. Nothing else changes — your connectors and your keys stay exactly as they are.

Run one of these every few weeks to update the harness
npx @deepseek-ai/dsh@latest web # or, if you installed it with npm install -g: npm install -g @deepseek-ai/dsh@latest

Do this once per service — Darash, Junifye and Lexifye each get their own connector, and the same Publifye key works for all three.

Say this to the harness — repeat for each service
Add Darash as an MCP server. URL: https://darash-api.publifye.pro/mcp Header: X-API-Key: <your Publifye key> Then tell me when to open a new chat.
MCP endpoint for the harness https://darash-api.publifye.pro/mcp paste this when the harness asks what to connect
Subscribe https://darash.publifye.pro/store your Publifye key appears in your account after subscribing

That is the whole setup — from here it should just work. One thing worth doing straight away: the harness runs on your own machine, so it opens in your browser at a local address such as http://127.0.0.1:3080. Bookmark that address the first time it appears. It is how you get back in later, and nobody else can reach it — it lives on your machine, not on ours.

Both of DeepSeek's models work well with Darash — Pro and Flash. They have different strengths, and which one suits you depends on the kind of question you tend to ask and how much you care about speed against depth. Try them both on a passage you know well and judge for yourself; switching is a setting, not a reinstall.

What this costs to run is DeepSeek's business, not ours, and their rates change. Check their pricing page for what they charge today; in practice a few dollars topped up at a time goes a long way.

One honest note. The DeepSeek Harness and DeepSeek's models are other people's software — Publifye does not build, maintain or support them, and cannot take responsibility for how they behave or change. This is simply a route we have tried and found works well. What we stand behind is our own side of it: the MCP endpoint and your Publifye key.

3Command line / Claude Code

One command adds the connector to Claude Code:

claude mcp add darash --transport http https://darash-api.publifye.pro/mcp

4Cursor / any MCP client

Point any MCP client at the endpoint below. It speaks OAuth 2.1 — clients discover the authorization server automatically (RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata).

Endpoint https://darash-api.publifye.pro/mcp
OAuth discovery https://darash-api.publifye.pro/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource

5Sign in once

The first time your AI calls Darash, a browser opens to sign in at Publifye — create a free account or log in, approve access, and you're connected. No key to copy or paste; your session refreshes silently after that.

Prefer a key? Clients without a browser login (or your own scripts) can send an X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY header to the same endpoint instead. Your key is shown in your account after subscribing.

6What you can do with it

Every tool is self-documenting — your AI discovers them automatically. The full study engine:

Try: “What does the Greek word for grace mean in Ephesians 2:8?” or “Find cross-references for Romans 8:28.”

7Free to start, then subscribe

A 90-day free trial: 250 requests a day at no cost, counted from your first connection rather than from sign-up. When the trial ends a subscription keeps you going — Darash Solo is the research engine on its own, and the Complete Trio adds Junifye writing and Lexifye dictionaries on the same key. Current prices are on the store, so they are never out of date here. Cancel any time.

8Other ways to use Darash

Prefer your own infrastructure? Darash for Organizations is a self-hosted licence — run the engine on your own hardware, or have us run it for you on hardware dedicated to your team. It scales to tens of thousands of users and includes keyless ELS Torah-code discovery. Compare every plan in the Store.
