Where does typings search for Typescript definitions?

When I use typings install mongoose, it looks like the Typescript definitions are downloaded from https://github.com/louy/typed-mongoose

Which seems very random. In the past, they used to download from DefinitelyTyped https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped, which was great as a central repository for all the Typescript Definitions.

What is the search path that typings uses now when I run typings install ______?
