Azure Wiki Search + mcp-use: Complete MCP Integration
Azure Wiki Search is a MCP server that An MCP server that enables AI to query and search Azure DevOps Wiki content with intelligent search capabilities..
When integrated with mcp-use, you can:
- Search Azure DevOps Wiki content with AI-powered queries
- Retrieve specific wiki pages by path or identifier
This guide provides step-by-step instructions to set up Azure Wiki Search in mcp-use, including configuration, examples, and troubleshooting.
What You'll Achieve
After completing this setup:
- Azure Wiki Search will be fully integrated and operational
- You can use Azure Wiki Search tools directly in mcp-use
- All Azure Wiki Search capabilities will be available for your workflows
- Access to 2 different tools
Prerequisites
Before starting, ensure you have:
- Azure DevOps organization name
- Azure DevOps project name
- mcp-use installed and configured
- Compatible operating system (Python 3.8+, Node.js 16+, pip Installation, npm/yarn Installation)
Installation
Step 1: Install Azure Wiki Search
Configuration
Step 2: Configure mcp-use
- Open mcp-use settings
- Navigate to MCP server configuration
- Add Azure Wiki Search server with appropriate settings
- Save and restart if needed
Examples
Once configured, you can use Azure Wiki Search in mcp-use:
Search Technical Documentation
Find relevant technical documentation in Azure Wiki
Ask mcp-use: "Search for API authentication documentation in the Edge project"
Expected Result: Relevant wiki pages containing authentication setup and API documentation
Retrieve Specific Wiki Page
Get content from a known wiki page path
Ask mcp-use: "Get the content from /docs/setup/installation.md"
Expected Result: Full content of the installation documentation page
Find Troubleshooting Guides
Search for problem-solving documentation
Ask mcp-use: "Find troubleshooting guides for deployment issues"
Expected Result: Wiki pages containing deployment troubleshooting information
Testing Your Setup
- Launch mcp-use
- Verify Azure Wiki Search is available in the tools list
- Test basic Azure Wiki Search functionality
Troubleshooting
Common Issues
Authentication Failed
Symptoms: Access denied to wiki, Unauthorized errors, PAT token rejected
Cause: Missing or invalid Azure DevOps Personal Access Token
Solution:
- Generate PAT in Azure DevOps with Wiki read permissions
- Set AZURE_DEVOPS_PAT environment variable
- Verify PAT has access to specified organization/project
- Check PAT expiration date
Organization/Project Not Found
Symptoms: Project not found errors, Organization does not exist
Cause: Invalid ORG or PROJECT configuration
Solution:
- Verify organization name matches Azure DevOps URL
- Confirm project exists and is accessible
- Check spelling and case sensitivity
- Use --org and --project parameters to override defaults
Wiki Content Not Found
Symptoms: No search results, Wiki path not found, Empty responses
Cause: Wiki not configured or content not available
Solution:
- Verify project has Wiki enabled
- Check wiki content exists in specified project
- Confirm search terms match available content
- Try broader search queries initially
uv Environment Issues
Symptoms: Command not found, Package installation fails, Virtual env errors
Cause: uv not installed or virtual environment not activated
Solution:
- Install uv: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
- Activate virtual environment before running
- Ensure Python 3.10+ is available
- Reinstall dependencies if corruption occurred
Connection Refused or Server Unreachable
Symptoms: ECONNREFUSED error, Connection timeout, Cannot reach server
Cause: MCP server not running or incorrect URL
Solution:
- Verify MCP server is running and accessible
- Check server URL is correct (protocol, host, port, path)
- Test server URL in browser or with curl to confirm it responds
- Ensure firewall allows connections to server port
- Verify CORS settings if accessing from browser
Import Errors or Module Not Found
Symptoms: ModuleNotFoundError: mcp_use, Cannot find module "mcp-use"
Cause: Package not installed or wrong environment
Solution:
- Verify installation: pip show mcp-use (Python) or npm list mcp-use (JS)
- Ensure using correct Python virtual environment or Node.js project
- Reinstall package: pip install --upgrade mcp-use or npm install mcp-use
- Check package.json or requirements.txt includes mcp-use
Tool Discovery Returns Empty List
Symptoms: list_tools() returns [], No tools available, Tools not found
Cause: MCP server not properly configured or not exposing tools
Solution:
- Verify MCP server is properly initialized and configured
- Check server logs to confirm tools are registered
- Test server directly with MCP inspector or test client
- Ensure server implements MCP protocol correctly
- Verify transport type (HTTP/SSE) matches server configuration
Tool Execution Fails or Returns Errors
Symptoms: Tool call throws exception, Invalid arguments error, Execution timeout
Cause: Incorrect arguments or server-side execution failure
Solution:
- Verify tool arguments match schema definition from list_tools()
- Check required arguments are provided with correct types
- Review server logs for detailed error messages
- Test tool with minimal valid arguments first
- Increase timeout if tool requires longer execution time
LangChain.js Integration Not Working
Symptoms: getLangChainTools() fails, Tools not recognized by agent, Type errors
Cause: Version mismatch or incorrect integration setup
Solution:
- Ensure LangChain.js version is compatible with mcp-use
- Verify TypeScript version meets requirements
- Check tool schema conversion is working correctly
- Use latest versions of both mcp-use and LangChain.js
- Review LangChain.js documentation for agent setup
Transport Type Errors (HTTP vs SSE)
Symptoms: SSE connection fails, HTTP polling not working, Event stream errors
Cause: Mismatch between client transport and server capabilities
Solution:
- Verify server supports the transport type you are using
- Try alternative transport: switch between "http" and "sse"
- Check server documentation for supported transport types
- For SSE, ensure server sends proper Content-Type: text/event-stream
- For HTTP, verify server accepts POST requests with JSON payload
Azure Wiki Search not appearing in mcp-use
Symptoms: Server not listed, Tools not available
Cause: Configuration or installation issue
Solution:
- Verify configuration syntax
- Check Azure Wiki Search installation
- Restart mcp-use
- Check logs for error messages
