MediaWiki MCP Server vs Site

MediaWiki MCP Server tools 30

• get-pageReturns a single wiki page (wikitext source, rendered HTML, or metadata only). If the title does not exist, an error is returned. Use metadata=true to retrieve the revision ID (for edit-conflict detection), page size, and section outline. Set content="none" to fetch only metadata. Large content is truncated at 75000 bytes by default, with a marker reporting how much of it was returned and which sections a narrower read can target; a follow-up call with section=N fetches a specific section. For more than one page at a time, use get-pages. For a specific historical revision, use get-revision.
• get-pagesReturns multiple wiki pages in one call (wikitext source or metadata only). Suited to reading a cluster of related pages, diffing a page family, or syncing pages to local storage. Accepts up to 50 titles; missing pages are reported inline (not as errors). One byte budget covers the whole response, 75000 bytes by default: pages come back whole in the order asked for until it is spent, and the pages past that point are named rather than returned, so a follow-up call for those names fetches the rest. Only a first page larger than the budget on its own is truncated, with a marker reporting how much of it was returned and which sections a narrower read can target. For a single page or HTML output, use get-page. requestedTitle is included only when it differs from the resolved title.
• get-page-historyReturns revision metadata (revision ID, timestamp, user, comment, size, minor flag) for a wiki page, in segments of 20 revisions, newest first. Paginate with olderThan or newerThan (mutually exclusive). If the title does not exist, an error is returned. Boolean flags appear only when true.
• get-recent-changesReturns recent change events, newest first, in segments of 50. Defaults to edits and page creations; set types to include log actions, categorizations, or external changes. Each row includes title, timestamp, user, revision IDs, size change, flags (minor/bot/new/anon), tags, and change type. Filter by timestamp window, namespaces, user, change tag, or hide flags (hideBots/hideMinor/hideAnon/hideRedirects/hidePatrolled). Pass showPatrolStatus to include per-row patrol state (requires patrol rights). Paginate with the continue token from the truncation marker. For a single page's revision history, use get-page-history. Boolean flags appear only when true; rows report the size delta, not raw old/new lengths.
