What is bookstack-mcp?

A BookStack wiki connector that lets an AI agent search, read, create, and manage documentation pages. BookStack is a web application for organising a team wiki.

Use it to search and read BookStack content, or create and manage pages when write access and the required credentials are configured.

It lets an agent work with the wiki from its coding environment, with an option to keep operations read-only unless writing is enabled.

bookstack-mcp — Plugin for Gemini CLI by ttpears

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/ttpears/bookstack-mcp

Made for: Gemini CLI.

Security

Grade A, and why

bookstack-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

The scan reads gemini-extension.json. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/bench-context.mjs, scripts/build-mcpb.mjs, scripts/check-plugin.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
