Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security46
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 6 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS check failed: the endpoint is reachable over plaintext HTTP. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability68
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1241 tokens (~206/item across 6 items; 6 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 6 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 7 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities40
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-03-26; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
How do I install the Wikexa Knowledge MCP server?
Wikexa Knowledge is a hosted endpoint at https://wikexa.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
article ~160
The full text of an article, for when lookup()'s summary is not enough — sections as a JSON array, infobox as key/value facts, no HTML or wikitext to parse. Pass `sections` to pull only the parts you need (e.g. ["Early life"]) and `max_chars` to cap the payload; both exist because a long article will otherwise flood your context.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| corpus | string | – | Which corpus to read from. Defaults to wikipedia. |
| max_chars | integer | – | Optional cap on total section text returned. |
| sections | array | – | Optional section names to include (substring match, case-insensitive). Omit for the whole article. |
| title | string | yes | Article title, alias, or Q-id. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
define ~213
What a word means, in thousands of languages — 8.15M dictionary entries with senses, part of speech, etymology and pronunciation. Covers what a general model is weakest at: historical languages (Old English, Gothic, Ancient Greek, Middle French) and hundreds of regional and indigenous ones. A single spelling often has entries in many languages and you get all of them — `hund` returns Danish, Gothic, Icelandic, Middle English and more — or pass `language` to narrow, `pos` for one part of speech. Use this for words and lookup() for things: define("java") gives the word in eight languages, lookup("Java") gives the island.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| language | string | – | Optional language name as Wiktionary spells it, e.g. "English", "Latin", "Spanish". |
| pos | string | – | Optional part of speech filter, e.g. "Noun", "Verb", "Adjective". |
| word | string | yes | The word or phrase to define. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
lookup ~183
Facts about any named thing — person, company, place, species, event, concept. Returns structured fields (dates, identifiers, relationships) plus a ~200-token summary, drawn from 10.2M entity records. Prefer this over fetching an encyclopedia page: the HTML costs ~15,000 tokens to recover ~500 tokens of fact. Resolves aliases and Wikidata Q-ids, so "Apple", "Apple Inc" and "Q312" all reach the same entity. Free, no key.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| corpus | string | – | Which corpus to look in. Defaults to wikipedia. Use wikivoyage for travel guides, wikiquote for quotations, wikibooks for textbooks, wikiversity for course material. |
| entity | string | yes | Entity name, Wikipedia title, alias, or Wikidata Q-id (e.g. "Tim Cook", "Q312"). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
papers ~208
Academic paper metadata from 27M+ works — title, abstract, authors, citations, DOI and open access URL. Covers every field: CS, medicine, physics, economics, biology, and more. Browse by OpenAlex topic ID and year, or filter by keywords in title/abstract. Returns papers sorted by citation count. Source: OpenAlex (CC0 metadata). Use this when the user needs scholarly references, citation counts, or research context that Wikipedia does not cover.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | – | Maximum papers to return, 1-20 (default 5). |
| query | string | – | Keywords to match in title and abstract (all terms must appear). Combines with topic to narrow results. |
| topic | string | – | OpenAlex topic ID, e.g. "T10135" (Machine Learning), "T10461" (Quantum Computing). Required unless query is very specific. |
| year | integer | – | Publication year to filter on, e.g. 2023. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
recent ~143
What changed in the last hours or days — the escape hatch for facts newer than your training cutoff. Reach for this whenever the answer could have moved since you were trained: elections, appointments, acquisitions, releases, deaths, records. Returns titles with timestamps and edit comments; resolve any of them with lookup(). Pass `topic` to filter and `hours` to widen the window up to a week.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| hours | integer | – | Look-back window in hours, 1-168 (default 24). |
| limit | integer | – | Maximum changes, 1-100 (default 25). |
| topic | string | – | Optional case-insensitive filter on title or edit comment. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search ~184
Find the right title when you only have a partial name or a rough description. Returns ranked {title, wikidata_id, description, summary_snippet}; ranking blends text relevance with monthly pageviews and follows redirects, so abbreviations land on the real article — "usa" returns United States, "jfk" returns John F. Kennedy, "apple" returns Apple Inc. rather than a disambiguation page. Searches every corpus at once unless you pass `corpus`. Follow up with lookup() for facts or article() for the text.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| corpus | string | – | Restrict to one corpus. Omit to search all of them at once, which is usually what you want when you do not know where the answer is. |
| limit | integer | – | Maximum results, 1-50 (default 10). |
| query | string | yes | Free-text search query. |
