What the publisher says

From the MediaWiki repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

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:

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

Documentation

What Can You Do?

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

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

30-Second Start

  1. Get the binary. Download from Releases or go build -o mediawiki-mcp-server . (requires Go 1.24+).
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
