Documentation Overview
MediaWiki MCP Server
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables Large Language Model (LLM) clients to interact with any MediaWiki wiki.
Features
Tools
Every tool that operates on a wiki accepts an optional wiki argument naming the wiki to act on (the wiki-management and OAuth tools do not) — pass a wiki key (e.g. en.wikipedia.org) or the full mcp://wikis/{wikiKey} URI. Omit it to use the configured default wiki (see Configuration). Each tool response reports the wiki the call ran against. Each successful response carries its payload as prose in content and as JSON in structuredContent; see response channels.

Resources
mcp://wikis/{wikiKey} — per-wiki resource exposing sitename, server (the wiki's public address), articlepath, scriptpath, and the private and readOnly flags.
- Those fields are the whole of it: the resource publishes a fixed list, so credentials and server-side settings in your configuration file are never exposed in resource content.
- After
add-wikiorremove-wiki, the server sendsnotifications/resources/list_changedso clients refresh.
