# Antikythera Wiki

> An independent, unofficial reader's guide to the published work of Antikythera (https://antikythera.org), the philosophy-of-technology research program on planetary computation directed by Benjamin Bratton. Not the Antikythera mechanism. AI-written reading notes on 89 works with citations, a 174-term glossary, a directory of 185 people, and links to every original.

What is here, and how to read it:

- **Notes** (`/work/<key>`): one cited digest per publication — Summary, then the argument section by section, key terms, and connections to other works. Written with AI from the published text; they are not the author's words. Always cite the original, which every page links.
- **Terms** (`/terms/<slug>`): Antikythera's vocabulary — working definitions written for this wiki from the notes, each traced to the works that use it.
- **People** (`/people/<slug>`): authors, researchers, staff and collaborators as named in the works, with the works each contributed to.
- **Reading partner** (`/agent`): an interactive assistant over the same corpus. Interactive only; not for indexing.
- **Not here:** the full text of any source. The site never republishes Antikythera's articles, books or PDFs; use the original links. Official information about the program: https://antikythera.org.

Every page is also available as Markdown with frontmatter: request the page URL with `Accept: text/markdown`, add `.md` to it, or prefix the path with `/md` (e.g. `https://antikythera.wiki/md/work/journal/afteralignment`); each HTML page links its twin with `<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">`. Markdown sitemap: https://antikythera.wiki/sitemap.md. All notes concatenated: https://antikythera.wiki/llms-full.txt. XML sitemap: https://antikythera.wiki/sitemap.xml. Source: https://github.com/ethanniser/antikythera.

## Site

- [Introduction](https://antikythera.wiki/md/introduction): what Antikythera is, the argument in six steps, the eight threads, where the corpus disagrees with itself, and three reading paths. Start here.
- [Works](https://antikythera.wiki/works): every publication with notes, grouped by kind.
- [Terms](https://antikythera.wiki/terms): the glossary, A–Z, each term traced to the works that use it.
- [People](https://antikythera.wiki/people): the directory.
- [About](https://antikythera.wiki/about): what this project is and is not.

## MCP server (for agents)

- Endpoint: `https://antikythera.wiki/mcp` — Model Context Protocol over Streamable HTTP (protocol 2026-07-28; the 2025 revisions are served too, the old HTTP+SSE transport is not). Tools only: no resources, no prompts.
- [Server card](https://antikythera.wiki/.well-known/mcp.json): every tool, what it returns, and how to connect an account. `GET /mcp` from a browser returns the same card.
- Every request needs a connected reader account: the server answers 401 with a `WWW-Authenticate` challenge until the client has an OAuth access token, which is how MCP clients know to connect one. The corpus itself stays free to read on the site (this file, [sitemap.md](https://antikythera.wiki/sitemap.md), and every page as Markdown).
- Corpus tools (any connected account): `about`, `list_works`, `get_work`, `list_terms`, `get_term`, `list_people`, `get_person`, `list_collections`, `get_collection`, `directory`, `find`. They return bibliographic metadata, one-paragraph summaries and links to the wiki page and the original publication — never source texts, notes in full, or PDFs. Fetch the linked page (as Markdown) for the content.
- Reader tools, each behind a permission the reader granted: `get_progress`, `set_progress`, `list_conversations`, `get_conversation`, `ask` — their reading tracker, their saved conversations, and `ask`, which puts a question to the reading partner on their behalf and saves the exchange to their account.
- Connecting an account: OAuth 2.1 with PKCE (S256) and dynamic client registration. Discovery: [protected resource metadata](https://antikythera.wiki/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp), [authorization server metadata](https://antikythera.wiki/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server). Scopes: `progress:read`, `progress:write`, `conversations:read`, `conversations:write` (plus `offline_access` for a refresh token). The reader consents once per app; the grant is remembered until they disconnect the app under settings.
- Every call is rate limited per account, and overall.
