Llmwiki Overview

The llmwiki MCP server connects Claude and other MCP-compatible apps to a workspace of documents, notes, clips, and generated wiki pages. It lets an agent search and read indexed sources, then write or update Markdown pages with links and citations.

Primary Use Cases for Llmwiki:

Index research papers and notes into a searchable personal wiki
Clip web pages and highlights for later synthesis
Ask Claude to create and revise linked knowledge pages
Maintain an institutional knowledge base from shared documents
