How to create new documentation pages with your AI

Connect your AI to Wiki.js once. After that, you just describe the content you want, and your agent handles the rest.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I make new Wiki.js pages using AI?

Tell your AI what information you want to document and where it should go. The agent uses the create_page tool to turn your text into a formatted markdown page on your Wiki.js instance. You get a live, structured page without manual formatting.

Where every page lands.

The outcomes of your request.

Depending on how you prompt your agent, you'll get different results.

LIVE

Published markdown pages

The AI uses create_page to push your content directly to your wiki. You'll find a new, formatted page ready for readers.

DRAFT

Content for review

If you ask for a draft first, the AI generates the markdown structure. You can then check the syntax before it goes live.

HUMAN

Manual edits needed

The AI handles the structure, but you still need to verify technical accuracy. You remain the final editor for all sensitive documentation.

SYNC

Updated knowledge base

New pages become part of your existing wiki hierarchy. Your documentation stays organized as the AI follows your path instructions.

The workflow

What your AI does when a request arrives.

The agent translates your plain English instructions into specific Wiki.js commands.

  1. Interpret intent

    Your agent reads your request to determine the target path and the content you want to document.

    create_page

  2. Format markdown

    The AI converts your conversational description into clean, valid markdown syntax for the wiki.

    create_page

  3. Execute creation

    The agent sends the formatted content and the destination path to your Wiki.js instance.

    create_page

  4. Confirm success

    Once the page is live, the AI tells you the exact location of the new documentation.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI delete existing pages?

    No. The current tools only allow for creating new pages, not deleting or overwriting existing ones.

  • 02

    Does the AI format the markdown for me?

    Yes. The agent converts your natural language into structured markdown before sending it to Wiki.js.

  • 03

    Can I specify which folder the page goes in?

    Yes. Just include the path in your prompt, like 'in the /docs/api folder'.

  • 04

    Will the AI change my existing wiki settings?

    No. The AI only interacts with the page creation tool and cannot modify your Wiki.js configuration or user permissions.

  • 05

    Do I need to write markdown syntax?

    No. You can just describe the content, and the agent will handle the syntax for you.
