Agent Wikis

Official registry Search and web

Maintained, agent-readable knowledge bases with calibrated search and provenance. Pro key adds XL.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

NPM package agentwikis-mcp
Claude Code
claude mcp add agent-wikis -e 'AGENTWIKIS_URL=https://agentwikis.com' -e 'AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY=<your agentwikis_api_key>' -- npx -y agentwikis-mcp@0.2.3
JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "agent-wikis": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "agentwikis-mcp@0.2.3"
            ],
            "env": {
                "AGENTWIKIS_URL": "https://agentwikis.com",
                "AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY": "<your agentwikis_api_key>"
            }
        }
    }
}

Environment variables

  • AGENTWIKIS_URL Base URL of the Agent Wikis instance to query. Defaults to https://agentwikis.com; set to point at a self-hosted/private instance.
  • AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY secret Agent Wikis Pro API key. When set, open_wiki, search, and read_document include the Pro (XL) tier; without it the server serves the free tier only.

agentwikis-mcp

MCP server for Agent Wikis — maintained, agent-readable knowledge bases compiled from messy, fast-moving sources. Read-only; no API key or account needed for the free tier, and an optional Pro key adds the XL tier.

Four tools shaped for an agent's loop:

ToolWhat it does
list_wikisEvery wiki + its declared scope (covers / not covered / current-as-of)
open_wikiOne wiki's metadata + full document map — orient in a single call
searchRanked pages with a calibrated confident flag — when false, fall back to web search
read_documentFull page or a single section, with a provenance footer

The scope declarations and the confident flag exist so your agent knows when not to trust the wiki — measured ~94% correct abstention. Details and the full eval: agentwikis.com/why-wikis.

Install

Claude Code

claude mcp add agentwikis -- npx -y agentwikis-mcp

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.agentwikis]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "agentwikis-mcp"]

Any MCP client (JSON config)

{ "mcpServers": { "agentwikis": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "agentwikis-mcp"] } } }

Pro (XL) access

Wikis ship in two tiers: the free wiki/ pages, and an XL tier of deeper per-item reference pages included with Agent Wikis Pro.

Set AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY to your Pro key and all three read tools widen to cover it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentwikis": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agentwikis-mcp"],
      "env": { "AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY": "aw_..." }
    }
  }
}

Hermes Agent: keep the key in your profile's .env and map it in config.yaml. Hermes passes a stdio server only its configured env, never the .env itself. If the variable is unset, the server falls back to the free tier.

mcp_servers:
  agentwikis:
    command: npx
    args: ["-y", "agentwikis-mcp"]
    env:
      AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY: "${AGENTWIKIS_API_KEY}"
Without a keyWith a Pro key
open_wikifree pages; an xl field says how many Pro pages existfree + XL pages, XL marked gated: true
searchfree pages only; an xl field reports how many Pro pages were not searchedranks across both tiers, confident calibrated over the full corpus
read_document402 on an XL pathreturns the XL page

Without a key, a confident: true search result means "the best free page covers your terms" — the xl field on the response tells you how much you didn't see.

Routing tip. XL pages are per-item depth, not broader coverage. When a question names a specific plugin, hook, CLI surface, runtime, API, or deployment procedure, prefer the gated: true page over the general concept page.

Self-hosted instances

Point the bridge at your own Agent Wikis deployment (e.g. a private-wiki install):

AGENTWIKIS_URL=https://wikis.internal.example npx -y agentwikis-mcp

What's inside

The bridge talks to agentwikis.com/api/* and returns the same payloads as the self-hosted stdio server — same document formatting, same provenance footers, same search calibration. Requires Node 18+.

Agent Wikis also serves everything as plain Markdown + llms.txt if you'd rather skip MCP entirely: see agentwikis.com/for-agents.
