lang is the Wikiquote subdomain — en (default), fr, de, it, es, pt, ru, pl, ja, zh.

Data source

https://<lang>.wikiquote.org/api/rest_v1/ + /w/api.php.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wikiquote": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/wikiquote/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Wikiquote data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
