概览

What is Wikimedia Image Search?

Wikimedia Image Search is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI assistants to search for images on Wikimedia Commons. It provides detailed metadata (license, author, description, dimensions) and an optional composite thumbnail image, giving AI models visual context to make informed decisions when selecting images.

How to use Wikimedia Image Search?

No API key is required. The server works with any LLM client that supports the Model Context Protocol, such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and others. Setup involves installing the server and configuring it with your MCP client—no additional authentication is needed.
