Wikipedia-MCP - MeshAgent

Try out the Wikipedia MCP Server and tools right away in a cloud-based Meshagent Room:

Install Meshagent CLI
```
pip install "meshagent[all]"
```
Sign up and authenticate
Follow instructions here: https://docs.meshagent.com/cli/getting_started

Start the MCP server as a Room agent

meshagent service test --room=test --role=agent --image=meshagent/mcp-wikipedia-mcp:latest --env MESHAGENT_PORT=8001 --port="num=8001 path=/webhook liveness=/ type=meshagent.callable" --name=mcp-wikipedia-mcp-service-test

This command creates a temporary Meshagent Room with an MCP Wikipedia server agent. The Room (and its agents/tools) are shut down automatically if inactive.

Join the Room with a chatbot that uses the Wikipedia MCP tools
```
meshagent chatbot join --room=test --agent-name=mcp-wikipedia-mcp --name=mcp-wikipedia-mcp --toolkit=mcp-wikipedia-mcp
```
- This command starts a chatbot in the Room, ready to use the Wikipedia MCP toolkit. You can use multiple toolkits in a Room.
- The command output will provide a link to access the Room.
Interact with the MCP tools
- Open the provided Room link in your browser and send messages to the agent chatbot. Try Wikipedia lookups and tool commands live!

Project Level Deployment: Always-On Wikipedia MCP Tools

For production-oriented scenarios, deploy the MCP server and a chatbot agent at the project level. This makes the tools available in every new Room, with no manual startup required.

Create persistent MCP server service

meshagent service create --role=agent --image=meshagent/mcp-wikipedia-mcp:latest --env MESHAGENT_PORT=8001 --port="num=8001 path=/webhook liveness=/ type=meshagent.callable" --name=mcp-wikipedia-mcp-service

Create persistent chatbot agent service

meshagent service create --image="meshagent/cli:latest" --port="num=9001 path=/agent liveness=/ type=meshagent.callable participant_name=mcp-wikipedia-mcp-chatbot" --env="MESHAGENT_PORT=9001" --name="mcp-wikipedia-mcp-chatbot-service" --command="meshagent chatbot service --agent-name=mcp-wikipedia-mcp-chatbot --toolkit=mcp-wikipedia-mcp"

Now, every time a new Meshagent Room is created in your project, the MCP Wikipedia tools and chatbot will be present—no need to run anything locally or set up each session.
