Public wikis answer without any login, so pointing it at Wikipedia takes only the API URL. The full reference covers 43 tools by category, and every operation is also a `wiki` command with typed exit codes — useful when you'd rather put a broken-link check in CI than ask for it in a chat.
A Go binary that talks to any MediaWiki installation's api.php. The same API client backs three surfaces: an MCP server, a `wiki` command-line tool, and a Claude Code plugin.
- Search and read pages, including pulling several pages' content in one request
- Quality checks a wiki doesn't give you: broken links on a page, orphaned pages nothing links to, pages not updated in the last N days, and pages similar to a given one
- A whole-wiki health audit, returned as JSON when you want to act on the result
- Editing once you authenticate — rename a page, find-and-replace inside one, publish a Markdown file as a wiki page
- File uploads from a URL or from local bytes the agent base64-encodes, plus text search inside uploaded files
- Markdown converted to wiki format, optionally with a theme and CSS
- Change tracking — what was updated this week, diffs between versions, who has been editing most
Your wiki's API endpoint in `MEDIAWIKI_URL` — usually `https://your-wiki.com/api.php`; Wikipedia is `https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php`. Reading a public wiki needs nothing else; private wikis and any editing need a bot password in `MEDIAWIKI_USERNAME` and `MEDIAWIKI_PASSWORD`. Take a binary from Releases, run the `ghcr.io/olgasafonova/mediawiki-mcp-server:1.28.0` image, or build with Go 1.24+. PDF search additionally needs `pdftotext` from poppler-utils.
Build from source — clone the repository and build it, then point your client at the binary
