Aesthetics Wiki MCP
Un servidor MCP que permite a los LLM buscar, leer y descubrir estéticas de la Aesthetics Wiki (cottagecore, dark academia, y2k, goblincore y miles más).
Respaldado por la API de MediaWiki. No requiere clave de API. Configuración cero: ejecútalo directamente con uvx.
Por qué
La Aesthetics Wiki es uno de los catálogos abiertos de subculturas visuales más ricos de Internet, pero su contenido está bloqueado tras una interfaz web. Este servidor lo convierte en una herramienta estructurada para que un LLM pueda realmente usarlo:
Mood-boards e investigación visual — obtén una galería de imágenes de referencia reales para cualquier estética en una sola llamada de herramienta.
Marca y dirección creativa — explora estilos adyacentes, encuentra la etiqueta adecuada para una sensación, compara vecinos.
Escritura y construcción de mundos — obtén vocabulario fundamentado (moda, música, motivos) en lugar de vibras genéricas de LLM.
Serendipia —
random_aesthetices una cura para el síndrome de la página en blanco.

TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and openWorldHint=true, covering safety and idempotency. The description adds valuable context beyond annotations: it specifies that content is 'cleaned' (behavioral trait), mentions case-insensitivity and underscore/space handling, and describes the return structure. No contradiction with annotations exists.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is front-loaded with the core purpose, followed by well-structured sections for Args and Returns. Every sentence adds value: the first states the action, the Args section details parameters clearly, and the Returns section explains output. No wasted words.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's moderate complexity, rich annotations, and the presence of an output schema (implied by the Returns section), the description is complete. It covers purpose, parameters, return values, and behavioral nuances like cleaning and formatting, leaving no significant gaps for the agent.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description fully compensates by explaining both parameters: 'name' is clarified as a page title with examples and formatting notes, and 'max_chars' is defined as a soft cap with a default value. This adds essential meaning beyond the bare schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the specific action ('Fetch the cleaned content') and resource ('an aesthetic's wiki page'), distinguishing it from sibling tools like get_aesthetic_images (which likely fetches images only) or search_aesthetic (which searches rather than fetches a specific page). The verb+resource combination is precise and unambiguous.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage by specifying what it fetches (cleaned wiki content), but doesn't explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like search_aesthetic or list_related. No exclusions or prerequisites are mentioned, leaving the agent to infer context from the tool name and description alone.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
get_aesthetic_imagesARead-onlyIdempotent
Get image URLs from an aesthetic's wiki page — perfect for moodboards.
Args: name: Page title (e.g. "Cottagecore", "Dark Academia"). limit: Max number of images (1-50). Default 12.
Returns:
A dict with source, url, and images: list of {filename, url, description_url}.
Excludes tiny icons and SVG placeholders.

TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description adds valuable behavioral context beyond what annotations provide: it specifies that the tool 'Excludes tiny icons and SVG placeholders' (filtering behavior not indicated by annotations) and mentions the return format. Annotations cover read-only, idempotent, and open-world characteristics, but the description supplements with practical implementation details.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is perfectly structured and front-loaded: the first sentence states the core purpose, followed by clearly labeled sections for Args and Returns. Every sentence earns its place by providing necessary information without redundancy or fluff.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's moderate complexity, rich annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), and the presence of an output schema, the description is complete enough. It explains what the tool does, provides parameter semantics, describes key behavioral traits (filtering exclusions), and references the return structure—all without needing to duplicate schema information.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description fully compensates by providing clear semantics for both parameters: 'name' is explained as 'Page title (e.g. "Cottagecore", "Dark Academia")' with examples, and 'limit' as 'Max number of images (1-50). Default 12.' This adds essential meaning beyond the bare schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the specific action ('Get image URLs') and resource ('from an aesthetic's wiki page'), with the phrase 'perfect for moodboards' providing practical context. It distinguishes this tool from siblings like 'get_aesthetic' (likely returns general info) and 'search_aesthetic' (likely searches for aesthetics) by focusing specifically on image extraction.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides clear context for when to use this tool ('perfect for moodboards'), but does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternatives among sibling tools. The agent can infer usage from the purpose, but lacks explicit guidance on tool selection scenarios.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
random_aestheticARead-only
Get one or more random aesthetics from the wiki — great for inspiration.
Args: count: Number of random pages (1-10). Default 1.
Returns:
A dict with aesthetics: list of {title, url}.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | No |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
No output parameters | ||
TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=false, and openWorldHint=true, covering safety and data behavior. The description adds value by specifying the source ('wiki') and the random nature of retrieval, which isn't captured in annotations. It doesn't contradict annotations, as 'Get' aligns with read-only, and it provides useful context beyond structured data.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is front-loaded with the core purpose, followed by structured sections for Args and Returns. Every sentence earns its place: the opening line sets context, and the bullet points efficiently document parameters and output without redundancy. It's appropriately sized for the tool's complexity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's low complexity (1 parameter, no nested objects), the description is complete. It explains the purpose, parameter semantics, and return format. With annotations covering behavioral traits and an output schema implied by the Returns section, no additional details are needed for effective use.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description carries the burden. It clearly explains the 'count' parameter: 'Number of random pages (1-10). Default 1.', adding meaning beyond the schema's basic type and title. This compensates well for the low coverage, though it doesn't detail other potential parameters if they existed.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Get one or more random aesthetics from the wiki — great for inspiration.' This specifies the verb ('Get'), resource ('aesthetics'), and source ('wiki'), with a helpful usage context ('inspiration'). However, it doesn't explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like 'get_aesthetic' or 'search_aesthetic', which likely retrieve specific rather than random aesthetics.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for inspiration and randomness, but doesn't explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'get_aesthetic' or 'search_aesthetic'. It provides some context ('great for inspiration') but lacks clear guidance on exclusions or direct comparisons to sibling tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
search_aestheticARead-onlyIdempotent
Search the Aesthetics Wiki for pages matching a query.
Args: query: Free-text search (e.g. "cottagecore", "dark academia", "y2k"). limit: Max number of results (1-50). Default 10.
Returns:
A dict with results: list of {title, pageid, snippet, url}.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | Yes | ||
| limit | No |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description |

TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true (safe read), idempotentHint=true (repeatable), and openWorldHint=true (dynamic data). The description adds value by specifying the search scope ('pages matching a query') and return format details (dict with results list structure), which are not covered by annotations. However, it does not disclose additional behavioral traits like rate limits, authentication needs, or pagination, so a 3 is appropriate.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is front-loaded with the core purpose in the first sentence, followed by structured sections for Args and Returns. Every sentence adds value: the purpose statement, parameter explanations with examples, and return format details. There is no wasted text, and the structure enhances readability.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's low complexity (2 parameters, simple search), rich annotations (readOnly, idempotent, openWorld), and the presence of an output schema (implied by Returns section), the description is complete enough. It covers purpose, parameters, and return values adequately without needing to explain annotations or output schema details, making it sufficient for the context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate. It effectively adds meaning: it explains 'query' as free-text search with examples ('cottagecore', 'dark academia', 'y2k') and 'limit' as max results with range (1-50) and default (10), which are not in the schema. This covers both parameters well, but lacks details on query syntax or error handling, preventing a perfect 5.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the specific action ('Search'), target resource ('the Aesthetics Wiki for pages'), and scope ('matching a query'), distinguishing it from siblings like get_aesthetic (likely retrieves a specific page), get_aesthetic_images (likely fetches images), list_related (likely lists related pages), and random_aesthetic (likely returns a random page). The verb+resource+scope combination is precise and differentiated.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage context (searching for pages based on a query) but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like get_aesthetic (for specific pages) or random_aesthetic (for random selection). It provides clear parameter guidance (e.g., query examples, limit range) but lacks explicit when/when-not statements or named alternatives, keeping it at a 4.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose with no overlap: get_aesthetic retrieves cleaned page content, get_aesthetic_images fetches images, list_related finds linked pages, random_aesthetic provides random pages, and search_aesthetic performs free-text searches. The descriptions reinforce these unique functions, making misselection unlikely.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with 'aesthetic' as the common noun root: get_aesthetic, get_aesthetic_images, list_related, random_aesthetic, and search_aesthetic. This predictable naming scheme enhances readability and usability for agents.
With 5 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose of interacting with an aesthetics wiki. Each tool earns its place by covering distinct aspects like content retrieval, image fetching, discovery, and search, avoiding bloat or thin coverage.
The tool set provides comprehensive coverage for browsing and exploring an aesthetics wiki, including fetching content, images, related pages, random discovery, and search. A minor gap exists in lacking explicit CRUD operations (e.g., create or update pages), but this is reasonable given the wiki's likely read-only nature, and agents can still accomplish core tasks effectively.
