How to Use the BookStack (Wiki) MCP in Cursor

Q: How does the search tool locate BookStack (Wiki) content inside Cursor?

The agent uses the search tool to query your wiki API. It returns matching titles and text snippets directly to your Cursor chat window.

Q: How do I view the edit history of my wiki?

You can ask the agent to run listauditlog to view recent modifications. It pulls the latest activity log so you can see who edited what and when.

Write code and update your BookStack wiki simultaneously using Cursor's agent mode to keep docs and codebase in sync.

Perplexity

Keep your codebase documentation updated via Cursor

Using `update_page` lets your editor modify setup instructions the moment you commit a code change. Instead of copying raw markdown, your agent reads your local code and updates the wiki page directly. This keeps your team's internal guides accurate without manual copy-pasting.

Query your BookStack (Wiki) MCP Server inside your editor

Invoking `search` pulls technical specs straight into your sidebar so you never have to open a browser for credentials. You can ask the agent to explain a legacy system based on your wiki. It reads the raw HTML from BookStack, giving you instant context while you write code.

Manage wiki attachments without leaving your workspace

Running `create_attachment` links files and diagrams to your wiki pages as you build them. If an asset becomes outdated, the editor runs `delete_attachment` to keep your pages clean. You manage your documentation assets using this MCP connection without breaking your coding flow.
