ark-wiki-mcp
An MCP server that lets Claude answer ARK: Survival Ascended / Evolved questions — taming requirements, crafting recipes, spawn locations, base stats — by querying the ARK community wiki directly, instead of relying on training data or generic web search.
Tools
search_wiki(query)— fuzzy title search, useful if you're unsure of exact spelling.get_creature_info(name)— diet, temperament, tameable/breedable/rideable, which maps it spawns on, saddle, base stats. Backed by the wiki's structured Cargo data.get_crafting_recipe(item)— ingredients + quantities, crafting station(s), engram level and point cost. Backed by structured Cargo data.list_wiki_sections(title)— see what sections exist on a wiki page.get_wiki_section(title, section)— fetch prose sections not covered by the structured tools: exact taming food/narcotic amounts ("Taming Food","KO Strategy"), spawn locations/habitat, drops, breeding notes, etc.
When a page has separate data for ARK: Survival Evolved vs. Survival Ascended, the Ascended version is preferred automatically where the wiki distinguishes them.

claude mcp add ark-wiki -- .venv/Scripts/python.exe server.pyHow it works
Structured facts (creature stats, crafting recipes) come from the wiki's Cargo tables via its public API — no scraping. Prose content (taming strategy, spawn habitat descriptions) is fetched per-section via the MediaWiki API and converted from HTML to plain text.
