mcp-commons-wikimedia

Wikimedia Commons file/image/audio/video search via MediaWiki Action API

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 250+ live data sources.

Tools

Tool	Description
`search`	Full-text search across Commons.
`file_info`	File metadata (size, mime, license, upload date, thumbnail urls).
`file_revisions`	File revision history.
`category_members`	Items in a Commons category.
`random_image`	Random image (optionally from a category).

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "commons-wikimedia": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/commons-wikimedia/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 250+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Commons Wikimedia data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
