# LlamaCloud MCP Server
A MCP server connecting to multiple managed indexes on [LlamaCloud](https://cloud.llamaindex.ai/)
This is a TypeScript-based MCP server that creates multiple tools, each connected to a specific managed index on LlamaCloud. Each tool is defined through command-line arguments.

## Features
### Tools
- Creates a separate tool for each index you define
- Each tool provides a `query` parameter to search its specific index
- Auto-generates tool names like `get_information_index_name` based on index names
## Development
Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```
For development with auto-rebuild:
```bash
npm run watch
```
## Installation
To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:
On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"llamacloud": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/llamacloud/build/index.js",
"--index",
"10k-SEC-Tesla",
"--description",
"10k SEC documents from 2023 for Tesla",
"--index",
"10k-SEC-Apple",
"--description",
"10k SEC documents from 2023 for Apple"
],
"env": {
"LLAMA_CLOUD_PROJECT_NAME": "<YOUR_PROJECT_NAME>",
"LLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY": "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
}
}
}
}
```
### Tool Definition Format
You can define multiple tools by providing pairs of `--index` and `--description` arguments. Each tool definition follows this format:
```
--index "IndexName" --description "Description text"
```
For example:
```bash
node build/index.js --index "10k-SEC-Tesla" --description "10k SEC documents from 2023 for Tesla" --index "10k-SEC-Apple" --description "10k SEC documents from 2023 for Apple"
```
This will create two tools:
1. `get_information_10k_sec_tesla` - For querying the 10k-SEC-Tesla index
2. `get_information_10k_sec_apple` - For querying the 10k-SEC-Apple index
### Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:
```bash
npm run inspector
```
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
