walkthrough mcp

Retro game walkthroughs, FAQs, and cheats from StrategyWiki's open MediaWiki API.

Originally built against GameFAQs, GameFAQs (Fandom) blocks all non browser clients with a Cloudflare bot wall and has no Wayback snapshots, so the server sources the same kind of content from StrategyWiki, which has a real, open API.

Tools

search_games, find games/guides by title
get_game_pages, list a game's subpages (Walkthrough, Cheats, dungeon guides...)
get_guide, full page text (walkthroughs are big; truncate via maxChars)

Run

bash

npm install && npm run build && node dist/index.js

Example

"How do I beat the Water Temple?" search_games("Ocarina of Time") → get_guide("The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Water Temple")
