README

MediaWiki MCP Server

Connect your AI assistant to any MediaWiki wiki, or script it directly from the terminal. Search, read, and edit wiki content using natural language or the wiki CLI.

Three ways to use it:

MCP server — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, VS Code, Google ADK, or any MCP-compatible tool. See SETUP.md.
wiki CLI — same API client, same auth, no AI needed. For shell pipelines, CI checks, cron jobs. See CLI.md.
Claude Code plugin — /plugin marketplace add olgasafonova/mediawiki-mcp-server adds wiki skills directly to Claude Code. See .claude-plugin/README.md.

SETUP.md	Per-tool configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, VS Code, Google ADK)
CLI.md	`wiki` command-line reference
TOOLS.md	Full tool reference (43 tools by category)

What Can You Do?

The same operation works from a prompt (via MCP) or directly in your shell (via the wiki CLI):

Goal	Prompt your AI	From your terminal
Search the wiki	"What does our wiki say about onboarding?"	`wiki search "onboarding"`
Read a page	"Show me the Getting Started page"	`wiki page "Getting Started"`
Find broken links	"Are there broken links on the Docs page?"	`wiki links broken --json`
Find stale content	"Which pages haven't been updated in 90 days?"	`wiki stale-pages --days 90`
Cross-link suggestions	"What pages are similar to the API Reference?"	`wiki similar "API Reference"`
Audit wiki health	"Run a health check on the wiki"	`wiki audit --json`
Publish markdown	"Publish this README to the wiki"	`wiki publish README.md "Page Title"`
Strike a name	"Strike out John Smith on the Team page"	`wiki replace "Team" --find "John Smith" --replace "<s>John Smith</s>"`

For the full tool list, see TOOLS.md. The CLI returns typed exit codes for CI-friendly branching — see CLI.md.

30-Second Start

Get the binary. Download from Releases or go build -o mediawiki-mcp-server . (requires Go 1.24+).
Find your wiki API URL — usually https://your-wiki.com/api.php. Wikipedia is https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php. Visit Special:Version to confirm.
Wire it up to your AI tool — see SETUP.md for the configuration that matches your client.

Reading public wikis works without login. Private/corporate wikis and editing require a bot password — SETUP.md#editing-wiki-pages.
