[Unreleased]

[1.5.2] - 2025-06-13

Added

• Added command-line argument --language (-l) to wikipedia-mcp to specify the Wikipedia language for the server (e.g., wikipedia-mcp --language ja). This enhancement allows users to easily configure the language at startup. (Related to GitHub Issue #7).

Changed

• Docker Improvements: Reverted Dockerfile to use proper MCP-compatible approach with PyPI installation
• MCP Studio Compatibility: Restored stdio transport for proper MCP client communication
• Package Installation: Now uses pip install wikipedia-mcp (recommended approach) instead of local file copying
• Environment Configuration: Restored proper Python environment variables for containerized deployment
• Dependency Cleanup: Removed unnecessary HTTP server dependencies (uvicorn) from requirements

Fixed

• Fixed Docker container to work properly with MCP Studio and Claude Desktop
• Restored proper MCP protocol compliance using stdio transport instead of HTTP

[1.5.1] - 2024-06-03

Added

• Added an optional language parameter to create_server function in wikipedia_mcp.server to allow configuring the WikipediaClient with a specific language (e.g., "ja", "es"). Defaults to "en". (Fixes GitHub Issue #7).

Changed

• N/A

Fixed

• Corrected assertions in CLI tests (tests/test_cli.py) to accurately reflect the behavior of the stdio transport in a non-interactive subprocess environment. Tests now expect and verify subprocess.TimeoutExpired and check stderr for startup messages, ensuring robust testing of CLI startup and logging levels.

• New tool: summarize_article_for_query(title: str, query: str, max_length: Optional[int] = 250) to get a summary of a Wikipedia article tailored to a specific query.
• New resource: /summary/{title}/query for the summarize_article_for_query tool.
• New tool: summarize_article_section(title: str, section_title: str, max_length: Optional[int] = 150) to get a summary of a specific section of a Wikipedia article.
• New resource: /summary/{title}/section/{section_title} for the summarize_article_section tool.
• New tool: extract_key_facts(title: str, topic_within_article: Optional[str] = None, count: int = 5) to extract key facts from a Wikipedia article.
