What it does
The server gives the agent access to the Meilisearch search engine. The agent creates and deletes indexes, adds documents and searches one or many indexes with filters and sorting. It can change ranking rules, facets and typo tolerance, create API keys and track indexing tasks. The instance URL and key can be switched during the conversation.
Who it is for. For developers building search on Meilisearch who want to tune it without hand-written API calls.
Good fit when
- You need to fill an index and check results quickly
- You want to tune ranking and filter settings
- You need to check indexing tasks and instance health
Not a fit when
- A production instance without a separate restricted key
- Your search runs on a different engine
Example request
Create a products index with id as the primary key and find electronics under $50MCP
- Transport
- stdio
- Authentication
- key is optional
