# How to Research Notable Entities with Claude

Claude makes Wikipedia a conversational knowledge source in your terminal where each answer naturally opens the door to deeper questions. Start with a quick fact check, follow the thread into related topics, pull full articles for the sections that matter most, and extract references for primary source verification -- all in one continuous session. The iterative approach mirrors how real research works, letting you build understanding progressively rather than committing to a single query upfront.

## Setup

claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter: claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp
2. Ask Claude: "Look up Anthropic on Wikipedia using wikipedia-lookup"
3. Claude returns a summary with founding date, key people, and what the company does
4. Ask: "Also look up Dario Amodei"
5. Claude provides biographical context for the meeting or conversation

## Example Prompt

```
I have a meeting with someone from Databricks tomorrow. Look up Databricks and its CEO on Wikipedia using wikipedia-lookup. Give me the key facts I should know.
```

## Tips

- Research both the company and key individuals before important meetings
- Ask Claude to create a one-page briefing from the Wikipedia data
- Use search when you are not sure of the exact name or spelling
