Wikitool is an open-source command-line toolkit for maintaining a MediaWiki wiki, published by Remilia Corporation and used to maintain the Remilia Wiki. It is built to be operated by AI agents working with human editors: the program carries out the mechanical side of wiki work, such as retrieving pages, inspecting templates, checking markup and publishing edits, while judgment over sources and prose rests with the agent's written instructions and with a person who accepts the final text.[1]
Design
Wikitool divides wiki maintenance into work that can be checked mechanically and work that requires editorial judgment. The program contains no language model. It handles communication with the wiki, parsing of wikitext, local search catalogs and the record of what has been published, and leaves the assessment of sources and prose to the agent using it.[1]
The judgment side is written down as a set of procedures, or "skills", that an agent loads for a given task: one for operating the tool, one for drafting sourced encyclopedic prose, one for reviewing a draft independently against its sources, and one for interviewing a person to record knowledge that is not yet in published sources, keeping that testimony apart from sourced fact.[1] A wiki's own conventions, such as required templates, house style and category policy, are kept in a separate site adapter rather than in the program, so that the same toolkit can serve other MediaWiki installations.[1]
Publication
Edits are previewed before they are applied, and each edit is bound to the page revision it was prepared against, so that a change cannot silently overwrite a later edit by someone else. A write whose outcome is uncertain is never repeated automatically; it is recorded and reconciled instead.[1]
Before a changed article is published, a named person must accept its exact text. The acceptance is tied to that text, to the target wiki and to the site's policy, and any later change invalidates it. The toolkit's documentation notes that the name given is not authenticated and must never be entered on a person's behalf.[1]
Licensing
Wikitool is distributed under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3, with the Source Seppuku License and the Viral Public License as supplementary terms.[1] It is the earliest known adopter of the Source Seppuku License, which was added to its repository on February 4, 2026, a week after the license was published on the Remilia Wiki.[2]
