You can connect Claude to your Wiki.js documentation through a dedicated MCP server. This enables Claude to search, read, update, create, organize, and delete wiki pages directly, keeping your knowledge base accurate and easy to access.

How to use

Once the MCP server is running, you can interact with Claude to perform common wiki actions. You can search for topics, read specific pages, update existing content with new information, create new pages, reorganize the wiki structure by moving pages, and remove outdated pages. Use natural language prompts to guide Claude, for example asking it to find information on a topic, fetch a page, or add a new page at a chosen path. Claude Code will recognize the MCP server and expose the connected Wiki.js capabilities for you to leverage in conversations.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before installing are Git, Python 3.8 or newer, Claude Code, and access to a Wiki.js site with an API key.

Step by step install and setup:

# Step 1: Clone the MCP server
git clone https://github.com/jaalbin24/wej-wikijs-mcp-server.git
cd wikijs-mcp

# Step 2: Create environment file from example
cp .env.example .env

# Step 3: Open .env and configure
# Replace with your Wiki.js URL and API key
WIKIJS_URL=https://your-wiki-site.com
WIKIJS_API_KEY=paste-your-api-key-here

Advanced configuration and startup

There are multiple ways to run the MCP server depending on your setup. The standard CLI approach uses Python to run the server module, and there is a Docker-based option as well.

# Standard installation start (Python)

python -m wikijs_mcp.server

Security and access

Protect your API key and limit access to trusted clients. Do not expose the API key in public or shared environments. If you use Docker, ensure the container runtime has appropriate network access controls to reach your Wiki.js instance.
