MCP Mediawiki

crunchtools/mcp-mediawiki

Connects Claude to any MediaWiki instance, from Wikipedia to your internal wiki. Exposes 19 tools covering the full spectrum: search, read and parse pages, create and edit content, manage categories, list recent changes, query user contributions, and handle file metadata. Works read-only against public wikis with just a URL, or authenticate with bot credentials for write operations. Supports both stdio and HTTP transports, so you can run it via uvx for local development or deploy it as a container for multi-client access. Useful when you need Claude to pull documentation from a wiki, maintain pages programmatically, or analyze wiki structure and activity.
