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 thewikiCLI.
- MCP server— Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, VS Code, Google ADK, or any MCP-compatible tool. SeeSETUP.md.
- wikiCLI— same API client, same auth, no AI needed. For shell pipelines, CI checks, cron jobs. SeeCLI.md.
- Claude Code plugin—/plugin marketplace add olgasafonova/mediawiki-mcp-serveradds wiki skills directly to Claude Code. See.claude-plugin/README.md.
The same operation works from a prompt (via MCP) or directly in your shell (via thewikiCLI):
For the full tool list, seeTOOLS.md. The CLI returns typed exit codes for CI-friendly branching — seeCLI.md.

File uploads and search(requires auth):
- "Upload this image from URL to the wiki"
- "Upload this local file to the wiki"(the agent base64-encodes the bytes; no public URL needed)
- "Search for 'budget' in File:Annual-Report.pdf"
- "Convert this README to wiki format"
- "Convert with Tieto branding and CSS"(use theme="tieto", add_css=true)
PDF search requires thepdftotexttool from poppler-utils. Text file search (TXT, MD, CSV, etc.) works without any dependencies.
Windows alternative:Download binaries frompoppler-windows releasesand add to PATH.
Works with any wiki:Wikipedia, Fandom, corporate wikis, or any MediaWiki installation.
