llmwiki — Claude Code MCP server: features and setup
Turn documents into a linked wiki with citations that an agent can search and read. Useful when you need reusable, auditable knowledge from notes, PDFs, and other source files.
claude mcp add llmwiki -- npx -y llm-wiki-compilerWhat llmwiki does
llmwiki turns source material into Markdown pages for concepts, entities, comparisons, and overviews. Its two-stage LLM workflow first extracts concepts, then builds pages. Claims include references to source files and line ranges.
The MCP server gives an agent tools to ingest, compile, query, lint, and read the wiki. Retrieval combines semantic chunk search, BM25 reranking, and links between pages. A local viewer displays pages and sources; llmwiki lint checks citations.
This is not a replacement for searching fast-changing logs: llmwiki is built for material worth compiling and reviewing. Add it to Claude Code with claude mcp add llmwiki -- npx -y llm-wiki-compiler.
