Turn Wikipedia into MCP tools
Give your AI agent Wikipedia tools. Writ turns your Wikipedia workflows into authenticated MCP tools your agent can call, taking real actions on your own account.

} No Wikipedia MCP server yet? Build one in minutes
Record the Wikipedia task once, or describe it to an AI session, and Writ turns it into an MCP tool your agent can call, taking real actions on your own Wikipedia account.
- 1Record a Wikipedia action once
Open the recorder and open an article on Wikipedia in a real browser. Writ captures the steps, login and 2FA included, into a workflow.
- 2Publish it as an MCP tool
One click exposes the workflow as an MCP tool with a typed input schema, alongside a REST endpoint. Your agent picks it by its description.
- 3Call it from any MCP client
Point Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client at your Writ server. The Wikipedia tool acts on your own account and returns structured output.
Browse supported MCP clients, see what's possible on workflows, or search for another site. Free to start. See pricing.
Wikipedia has no MCP server
Read-only website-to-MCP tools can summarize a Wikipedia page, but they can't do anything on it. Writ turns the Wikipedia workflows you build into MCP tools your agent calls to take real actions (search, extract, submit), authenticated, on your own Wikipedia account.
Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
Wikipedia tools your agent can call
Each tool is a real Wikipedia workflow with a typed input schema and structured output. Your agent picks the right one by its description.
wikipedia.get_infoboxReturn the structured infobox fields for an article.Example tool schema
{
"name": "wikipedia.get_infobox",
"description": "Return the structured infobox fields for an article.",
"input_schema": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": { "type": "string", "description": "What to look up on Wikipedia." }
},
"required": ["query"]
}
} Add the server to any MCP client
Copy the config into your client and authenticate with a wt_ key. Tools appear automatically.

Your agent acts on your own Wikipedia account
Wikipedia pages are public; Writ renders them in real Chromium to extract infobox and table data accurately.
Collect Wikipedia data you have the right to access and respect its licensing and rate limits.
